When eyes speak.....


A lazy afternoon, and I helped her to bed, careful not to make that eye contact. And then ignoring her completely, I took the chair beside the bed, managing to steal a look at her somehow.

A pair of small big eyes that I call mine, pleaded a caress from me, stirring something deep inside....

I smiled, and hurried to appear busy reading the newspaper which I was not reading, impressed by her ways of pampering my "need to be needed"- completely, fiercely, violently, exclusively.....

So lost was I in my thoughts, that I don't know when unknowingly I started looking at her. Dammit !! She was reading every word I had in my mind, carefully hiding her triumph with an 'O! so innocent' complaint. I wanted to pull off, but it was already too late, and I had just one option left - returning her gaze !

I did, and with some assistance from a frown, and a tilt in my neck, my rebuking eyes asked her " What happened ?"

With the same innocent complaint and a hurt look on her face, she blinked.....

I promised myself I'll never forgive her for the air she left me breathless with.....
