Gloomy Evening

Gloomy Evening

One gloomy evening she keeps browsing their wedding album on her Facebook. Silent tears wet her iPhone 5’s screen.
“Love is patient, love is merciful....” the lines from the holy scriptures that were read out by the pastor on their wedding day cross her mind.
She is the queen of this little bungalow and has access to anything on this earth. But she longs for his love, warmth and time.
On the evening passenger train he is returning home after a heavy day’s work. Having gifted his wife a comfortable life he proudly smiles at his achievement and assures his tired body a hard drink and a good rest.

She is awake and busy searching for those pages in the scripture only with a hope of consolation. His snoring resound all corners.
