Home alone with my friendly neighbors….

It’s been a couple of years that Dr. G is known to his trusted neighbor couple, every year at a particular span, they spend here. This year,for obvious reasons I got the privilege to meet them. They were a bit skeptical with my colored dress, and again without giving much attention to me they engrossed in rearranging their home décor. I was sure, she is expecting..off course, a high time for them to renovate their home and getting the proper resources.

Well, I was also busy in doing the same too; reframing my husband’s bachelor’s den to convert it to a Our residence. Well, they were so swiftly completed their job in a week that raised my inquisitiveness. However, it seemed that they are not that interested or rather scared to see me poking my nose on their private residence! You might tell, how could you be so generous to write about such a weird couple, well, I am.

As the time tickles on, I have found that,we share quite a bit of similarity in our daily routine ! Both of us were early risers. The lady of the house rose first then with a shrill shout she makes her husband awake (something that I am afraid is way detrimental to implement in my life!!!). But I was really impressed with their punctuality. The moment the world enters in the civil twilight phase, the sun rays are about to make the east reddish a bit, I found them on the balcony with me. Dr. G was not that surprised, he said it’s happening for the last three years , sometimes he sets up his clock according to their morning chitchats! And why not? They are preparing to have baby!

For another fortnight, I was quiet accustomed with their daily diet, breakfast with tea sunken rusks (again, my favorite), lunch with a bit of cereals and non veg, for dinner, I am not sure!! It was around the 20^th day, I wake with an additional sound of their baby’s crying. We were happy , atlast! And concerned too! The mom, usually got busy to her morning job of procuring food and feeding the thinglet. One day I offered her my breakfast, she was a bit happy but thought to ask her husband whether it is wise to take food from aliens, I was a bit offended , but lastly they made me happy after having a bite from mine.

I was alone there. Dr. G is busy with his lab and me, listlessly roaming around the large flat, doing something in the kitchen and then staring outside in the evening with a sip of coffee to watch the last ray of the day. Well that’s the time when the couple and my hubby both get back to home. In the mean time the lady become a bit friendlier and visits me with her husband. They wait and watch me from a distance then come say a Hello, the swiftly nodded one, sometimes they whisper about me I suspect!!! And before we start spend some more time, the thinglets (they are twins!!!!) start shouting for their parents. I feel pity for them, they have to stay alone for the whole day! I wish they have kept them with me, which I suppose is impossible, how an experienced parent could believe a one month wedded girl, who still forgets to take out her dresses from the veranda when it showers!!

It was pouring heavily for the whole day, hail storm was there!! The tiny angels are scared and shouted. I was in the balcony, oh! may be their mom and dad stacked in between, and then I found the wet couple coming hurriedly with some foods, may be to make the babies happy!! And for the first time, I have seen the twins, they are so cute. May be after seeing me in the balcony,the anxious mom was a bit happy, ("thank God may be she can protect them" Ahh, atlast she understood my image of universal protector!!)! I was happy too, may be now the ice between us are going to break!

Days are flying like feathers!! The kids are going up. I saw them approaching their first footsteps to this crowdie, noisy world. I have seen how, patiently the couple taught them to spread their wings of dream and then my day of flying back to my old nest is approached. I am sad, offcourse to leave the warmth of being at home , but a major portion of the heart is sobbing for them. They were my best friends..an unspoken relationship of trust if not friendship was there between us…and it was the last day they agreed to pose for me..here comes a couple of the photographs..Last night DR. G told me, they won’t be here for long, I was angry, a bit upset cant they wait for me a bit more? Dr. G says “ don’t worry they will be here again , I know them they don’t break their promise, they were my good old friends ”…

Till then these photographs are there for my sadden soul..thought of sharing those to you.. especially on the day the world celebrates a WHOLE DAY (WORLD SPARROW DAY,20TH MARCH) for them!!!!

Private moments..

Our Favourite breakfast...

To fly or not to fly..that is the question..

Dare to fly..the sky is yours...
