our conversations were reduced to just 'good mornings', 'you are back'-s.
and the response usually was tired and uninterested 'hmmm' or 'haan'..The questions were asked not out of any interest either but merely out of habit ...
a habit which developed in period of 20 years. was it the fact that we got used to each other so well that we did not find it important to having a conversation-even a small one, or was it that we just no longer cared for the other.
we no longer were eager for each others touch, or even a slight brush as it used to be in the beginning, it seemed we avoided even looking at each other.
.maybe we did avoid but not cause we were uncomfortable or did not stand each other... we were just scared that our eyes would speak out the truth about our relation,
what had it come to become and say it loud.
we did not want to accept it, we did not want anyone to hear it.
so we found it more convenient to not even look at each other rather stare into the blankness of our relationship,
People miss took it to be cute and endearing, we did not bother correcting them.
. there was no warmth or even a cold feeling between us, we had come to the point of being complete stranger after knowing everything about each other, after walking together
this long.
this long.
