PDA

Rosa and Richard were old school; they were experiencing the transition from landlines to androids. They loved the landline as it brought the family together but mobiles were a bolt from the blue,as it induced detachment! 

Sitting at the adjacent room, their children wished them "good morning" with the aid of their respective mobiles; they were so engrossed and delved deep into the mobiles that they could not wish their parents in person- Happy Anniversary!

Rosa and Richard made cards for each other and also for their children on special occasions but they were getting e-cards from their children.

Technological-leapfrogging was creating a gulf between them and their children! They were smart, educated, technology savvy but they loved to indulge in the old school ways when it came to celebrations...

 The couple heard from their grown-up children, the new internet lingo, PDA, and, they wondered what it could be!!! 

It was their 28th Wedding Anniversary and also the convocation day of their youngest son, Rio. Rosa had to visit a gynaecologist as she was undergoing the menopausal transition; Richard had to crack a deal with the realtors; their elder son, Ryan, accompanied their youngest son to his convocation ceremony.

 ...They were not angry as their parents needed the company of each other, away from their family-responsibilities...and, they knew...

...That was the best "PDA picture" they had ever clicked and gifted their parents on their wedding anniversary! 

"When Rio and Ryan gilded the photo-frame with flowers and presented to their parents, their joys knew no bound!"

Flashback:

✨✨✨✨✨✨

Neither did Rosa visit a gynaecologist, nor did Richard went to crack a deal with the realtors.....

They were travelling together to their favourite spot in a metro, hand in hand, in close proximity inside the metro... Richard searched his pocket and found the white rose(it was Rosa's favourite flower).... 

The solitaire chain twinned with the white rose to make their love more crimson! Richard put the solitaire around Rosa's neck....and whispered:

 "Forever mine and till eternity!" Richard's whisper was loud....to overcome the sound inside the metro compartment....

The young passengers in the metro showered them with claps and smiles in their lips.....

PDA(Public Display of Affection), they were living at that moment.... Unaware, their sons were at the same compartment... They clicked the pictures of their parents, framed it, and, gifted them to their parents....

...They understood,

 "change is the only constant even in relationships, and to accept technology and technological jargons was part of a relationship too!"

PDA(Public Display of Affection) they lived on the day of their anniversary!....
