27. Diwali Celebration

Sid's Point of view

'Aaachhooo....' I sneezed.

"Bless you.." Preeti said. I gave her a small smile.

'Aaachooo...' This time Preeti sneezed. I chuckled softly.

"Bless you to you too.." I said focusing on road.

"Seems like we both catch cold." She said.

"Yeah..I guess.." I said while turn on the heater full.

The ride was very silent. Songs are playing in a very low volume. Rain is stop now and we caught on a little traffic because police clearing the road, which is blocked by fallen trees on a road, with the help of local people.

It's past midnight. I turn my head to look at Preeti and she fall asleep. She looks like an angel in a red suit and a slightly wet hair which fallen on her face.

My head is aching badly. It's felt like someone is playing drum inside it and every part of my body is aching in pain. After half an hour We reached the village and I parked the car in a driveway of our house. I look at Preeti and she is still sleeping.
