I  wondered why he  slowed down the car near ICICI ATM,  when I had  already  told him HDFC ATM.  “HDFC” I gently reminded looking at him.  He had a smug ex-pression.

“Where is he?”, he asked me smiling. “Your new boyfriend. You mentioned he hangs out here.”

“Oh yeah” I said as  I looked around  for him. “He  isn’t seen around today, but then he gets hold of me early morning  not at noon” I mentioned.

I had complained to hubby dear, as soon as he landed from abroad, about this guy. While I return from the gym early morning at 6am, he just comes and holds my hand from behind. Try as  I might, he wouldn’t let me go. I try wriggling out, but no sooner than I wriggle free, he catches me again. Too much of love this guy showers on me!

Its become a daily affair, I told him.  Most days he stealthily pounces on me from behind,. “ Come on baby, lets have a blast running around”  his eyes seem to say.  As I wriggle out, I see a pleading innocent look on his face. His melting eyes melt my heart too! But, but how can I fool around on the road when early morning walkers are watching our antics.

I wanted to take another route to the gym to avoid him, but I felt sorry for him.  I tried walking away on the other side of the road,  I showed my displeasure to the way he troubled me, but it pained me to see his forlorn look L.  Finally he got the message, he would just stand farway and look at me as I passed by. Just a smile, a word from me, so that he could come running and hold my hands once again.

Next day morning, my husband who moans about early mornings, woke up with great gusto and got ready for an early morning walk. “Maybe I can meet your boyfriend now”, he grinned as he pulled on his shorts!  I changed into my track suit he got me the previous day and tied my hair into a pony tail, as he teased me for dressing up to meet him. Hurry up he chided as I was tying up shoelace. “Ready” I was all smiles as I said that. I knew he would be there right on the spot, watching me pass by, a forlorn look on his face, just waiting to jump on me if I let him.

As we reached the spot, I laughed gleefully and pointed out “ There he is, that’s him, surrounded by his other girl friends. But see I am different and so special among the lot”

And  if you wanna see the hansome guy who stole my heart……………..
