His STORY

He gazed at her, watching her very serious face as she scrutinised his bruised elbow.

He studied her expression: it looked pained. Perhaps more pain than he actually felt at that moment.

Lost in love and wonder, he smiled stupidly as she fussed and fretted because the doctor was delaying meeting them.

“What are you smiling for?” she asked him. She was annoyed. She was beautiful.

He exhaled deeply, moved closer to her, held her hand in his and then spoke:

“You see, I have heard people say so many things about how to be happy. Some find happiness in wealth, some in their friends, some others in their jobs... But have you ever realized how happy a newborn baby is as he rests in his mother’s arms? He knows nothing about this world. He knows not what wealth is, he knows not what the future holds. All that he knows is he is being loved and taken care of. His world is at peace. And all the time that I’m with you, I feel like that newborn baby.”
