Hi all ๐. Welcome to book 2 : REDISCOVERING LOVE๐ณ. For all those that are NOT familiar with this SS ... here is the link to the first book:
PROLOGUE:
Manyata adored going horse back-riding at the crack of dawn. She only learned riding recently & found that she loved every second of it. She'd watch the sun peek out through the clouds ... she'd breathe in the crisp ,morning breeze. It made her forget her worries ... or rather , JUST POSTPONE IT FOR A WHILE. She called out to the keeper : Steven - take SHADOW to her stable. She whispered to the horse : same time , same place ... TOMORROW!!!
The steaming hot water from the shower pounded on her fragile body. She held up her hands to the wall & water poured down from her head to below. A hand curled around her waist. She closed her eyes & held onto her breath. He kissed her on the shoulder. Good-morning Princess. Hmmm , was all she could muster. Open your eyes Princess. If I do ... YOU'LL BE GONE!
She wrapped a towel around her body & entered her walk-in closet. She chose a pair of blue jeans & a white, long-sleeve shirt. She carefully buttoned the cuffs of the shirt, making sure ; the scars of her slit wrists - were not visible. Just to make sure ... she added some chunky bangles & a watch.
It was almost 7 o'clock ... she sat at her desk & sipped on a cup of coffee. From her drawer , she pulled out her diary. She opened a page & wrote : 20th November 2013 ... Uday - I'm tired writing to you. Next week will be 1 year that u are gone. U know that when u get back ... you'll have a lot of reading to do , as I'm gonna make u read each letter I wrote to you. I miss you terribly. I love you ... I STILL DO!
She heard a gurgling sound. She smiled to herself and continued writing : Sorry Uday ... I have to go now , somebody more IMPORTANT than u ; needs my attention. She closed the diary, kept it back into the drawer & walked over to the cot , in the center of the room. She took the little girl into her arms. Hi Princess , & the baby smiled.
She caressed the child's cheek with the back of her finger , whilst admiring the infant. The girl had Uday's eyes, his nose , his lips , his complexion & even though , she was just over 11 weeks old ... she had mastered her father's signature smirk. Little MEGHRANJALI was a duplicate of her father , therefore Manyata often refferred to her as "PAPA KI PARI".
I'm sorry for bringing u here ... so far away from civilization; but this is a test for your Papa. He once told me ... that wherever in the world I'll be - HE'LL FIND ME! , she explained to her daughter.
She switched on the TV to WORLD NEWS. The main head-line was : After the recent spate of deaths in a little town in India , called DEVGARH ; health officials have taken a decision to quarantine the village.
Manyata , immediately phoned someone. Haan Bhabhisa' ,came the reply. Unnati - I need to go to India. Can u baby-sit Megha for a few days? How fast can u come to TEXAS???
Oh and Unnati ... don't forget ...
I know Bhabhisa' ... DON'T TELL ANYONE WHERE U ARE ! ... & DON'T EVER SPEAK OF MEGHA'S EXISTANCE!!!!
