Something Else He Is Guilty Of

"Mine," he said.

"Yours," she whispered.

This ended up all the verbal communications.Their proximity was exciting their passion, satiating their emotions, soothing their souls, realizing his biggest error of judgment which was unfortunately based on not weighing his senses altogether and fade her complaints which she never did.

This was earlier led by their first form of conversations -Human touch; safety, security, comfort, care, warmth, belonging which both of them yearned for, in the gentle caress of his fingers in her beautiful long silky locks, a warm tight hug, the brush of his lips on her forehead...

...When in his baritone voice he said, 'You know how much I loved your long locks ever since you were in Grade 11-12?' He is a person of few words, yet those words are always precious to her. He communicates in a quiet yet very direct and focused manner.

She wondered, who told her that dreams never come true!

She did not let any preconceived notions of what a family or society imposes to dictate her emotional space. It may be time to extract herself from a situation that leaves her feeling incomplete and emotionally confused. 

This time she's being honest to herself; she knows if people knew they may use words like infidelity, betrayal, or something which will burden her feelings and put pressure to pause her thoughts and actions as well but at this moment she really does not want to believe in that, all she wanted is to inhale this moment deep within, which will last forever for her. 

Her heart is tender and deserved to feel safe enough to let its guard down and be vulnerable, to the one who is warm, loving and real, takes effort, care little but is consistently concerned, without making much noise and loud announcements.

We need that touch from the one we love almost as much as we need air to breathe in. But she never understood the importance of touch.

His touch, until she couldn't have it!!

There's a part of her no one will ever know about. It's so personal, she might not even understand this part of herself completely...She loved him not because he he gave her what she needed, but because he gave her feelings she never thought she needed.

But that's the beauty of it, isn't it?

She looked deep inside herself, smiled and felt honored what she saw. There are revelations bursting through her consciousness and it brought up old wishes also reminded of her things she'd rather not remember. She laid resting her head on his bare chest. These memories are popping up for a reason and so her tears. She had not given herself proper closure just yet, so she allowed herself whatever she needed to heal.

He felt his chest moistened, so he asked her, "Are you crying?"

She replied, "No, Dear you!! This is happiness overflowed." 

Something else he is guilty of -

He enjoys proving her wrong (even when she's not), these times he could not dare to prove her wrong, she drifted him in a state of unresponsiveness. 

Now that he knows their beautiful love had lost its way but finds it difficult to unfold himself and console her that she is not alone who grieves for her loss.

All he could say is, "What a fool I had been to not have expressed my feelings to you, before I lost you!! Loved the time we spent together today. We missed a lot many years, but not anymore."

She replied silently like he did always keeping her calm, controlling her emotions but her tears rolled down, defying her to hide. She tried hard to muster all her courage to tell him that, "See there's this place in me where your fingerprints will always rest, your kisses will linger and your whispers will softly echo. It's the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me."

Before she could speak, he asked her to excuse him for a while to make a call to the driver. He ended the call and hugged her tightly saying, "It's getting late, I will drop you home safely."

She smiled back thinking, life is too short to waste for a second and unknowningly this is something else he is guilty of.
