Love Actually

Been noticing this couple since a long long time now and wondering wat the hell were they thinking when they decided to tie the knot!!! And I seriously keep wondering that if they dint find each other then where would they be??? The weirdest thing is that I find this answer in the weirdest places... places where u know it will be it wont really show up... and then when there’s no one around there u see it gleaming in their eyes and then you say “aaahhhhh this is what I want or rather want for the one” .It’s a feeling...yeah I know u know this but I’ll tell u how I came to realise where it really lies.

So he’s an average hard working individual and she’s an average working woman who met at work and well just like any slick man he won her after quite a few one liners and constant persuasion and a wit like none I’ve seen so far. He said he’d be all she ever needed and well she believed him. He loved her and she finally realised she did so too. It took a few months, a lotta patience, a few broken bones and some cooking skills to get them together and ofcourse the gift of the gab that the gentleman was blessed with ;). After all this they took their vows and pledged a lifetime of togetherness. Its definitely not a smooth journey .... its life for heaven sake...when was it supposed to be a cakewalk... its just not a bed of roses. So just like every person they had their ups and downs and trust me enough that most couples now a days would just give up and let go and take their separate ways... I’ve seen most take the easy way out too... but not them. Supporting one another when no one around did and in all this one would think love’s lost for sure and well there were times that I guessed even they questioned its existence but every ray of hope showing better times brought them right back to the day they met and the love just happened all over again...over and over and over. After years of toiling on homeground he decided to venture out seeing that things could be managed here at home. She still thought he cant be by himself and accompanied him in all he did ... some trying times. Its been 25+ yrs and they still went for their evening walks and talks everyday. Then came that day when this could not happen too but still she sat by him reading the news or whatever they could do together. There are times when the whole scene turns into a battlefield of words and general backlash and even namecallin and even at the end of that day they manage to crack some stupid joke and have dinner peacefully. She’s currently out on a trip and just the other day I called to check on them and I heard “its alright she’d be home soon” And the voice on the phone seemed so hopeful and filled with joy that she’s havin a nice time with her school kids somewhere and yet convincing me that he’s ok and anyways all he needs is her.

Thats when I realised I need this...someone who is not just the Mr charming but someone who misses me just because he cant live without me and still keeps it real. You find love in the strangest places and its all about moments like these that give u glimpses of that piece of heaven u want!

[P.S Mummy is obviously something to still keep that fire alive in Dad. Dad definitely still has his way with the Girl!!!!]
