Oh! Another gray hair..
I turned and saw him sound asleep. Still adorable. The book that he was reading hours ago, now on his chest. Sitting next to him, I could see that he too has some fine lines on his forehead.
I gazed towards the sea. Rocking my chair. I flashed-back how we celebrated our 10th anniversary, 20th anniversary and the recent 30th anniversary. Amazing..
How time flies. Thinking back over all these years – over the joys and triumphs, over the difficulties and challenges – what was it that made us able to stay together and be (more or less) happy through all of it?
I wonder.
I turned to him again as his touch alerted me. He smiled and I smiled back to the man that just minutes ago snoring like pig. He held my hand. He still held my hand. Maybe that’s why, I never regretted that I chose him..
