The
sunlight crept in and was trying to peep inside his bedroom. It was just another
dawn of just another day.
Suddenly,
his cell rang. He answered it. It was her call. She was calling him after what seemed
like a long, long time to him.
She said,
“I am sorry. Do you still love me?”
“I love
you.”
“I love
you too,” she replied.
He could
hear a sigh of relief there and here. Then they started talking…
Now, everything
is back to normal. They are together again: across the 1,000 miles that separate them, across the time that divided them. They talked about the temple, about their daughter,
about their future ahead… just like old times.
Then he woke up. Felt sad and sat up cold like a stone. Alas, it was an early morning dream… Today
morning, he dreamt of her.
