Unfortunately or fortunately snowfall has stopped. The trucks have arrived to clear the snow on the roads.
We both had to go to office today.
"Rean. Breakfast is ready!"
"Coming.", he climbed the stairs down wearing black formals with ivory coloured shirt.
"Whom do you want to impress in the office today?", I asked folding my hands.
"What?",he said folding his sleeves.
"Are there any hot girls who are waiting to have you?"
"You're one crazy woman.", he chuckled serving his own plate with the toast.
"I'm serious.", I snorted.
"What made you say so?",he asked closing his right eye.
"Because you look so dashingly hot. I won't be there with you at your office. If any b**ches find you as...-"
Shh.", he kept a finger on my lips.
"I won't let them flirt with me. You know that! Why are you insecure? I will be always yours. Only yours.", he said locking his hands and embracing me in his locked hands.
I smiled, "I love you."
"I know that."
"We're running out of time I guess."
"Hmm."
He kissed my forehead.
"See you in the evening then. Bye.",he said picking up his suit and rushing to garage to take out his car.
I had my breakfast. I was waiting for Ena and Paul to show up. I was posting mine and Rean's photo on i********: when a message popped up.
It was from Ena, she can't come to office as she's not feeling well. But Paul would drop me to office on the way if I wanted.
I replied, 'no problem. I'll call Rean. I don't want to distrub brother. Let him take care of you. Get well soon.'
Ena replied thanks.
"Couldn't tolerate my absence my dear wife? Calling me so soon."
"Ugh. In your dreams. Ena won't be coming to office. And
Paul wants to take care of her. So.."
"So?"
"Come back and pick me up!"
"Why don't you book a taxi?"
"I-I. There are no taxis available at this time. I checked now",I lied
"Go by train."
"REAN!"
"Fine. Don't worry. I'm on the way."
The car horned exactly after ten minutes.
I locked the house and I sat in the car silently.
"You could have just said that you wanted to go to office with your husband in one sentence. As simple as that.",he smirked.
"Why would I say that? And that's why I'm planning to buy a new car. So that I can be independent."
"Who told you to give back your car to Joe?"
"It wasn't my car at all. She had gifted me when I came to NY for first time. She owns it."
"Hmm. Then buy a new one."
"Yes."
He chuckled.
He dropped me to office.
There was heavy workload today.
I was so tired. Thea came to my office and she dropped me home.
Rean was still busy. He might return late today.
I had forgotten to check the mailbox since the last week.
I opened the mailbox.
There was a letter in it.
It was for me.
I unfolded the letter to see that it was from my sister, Becca!
