31. The Farewell

Preeti's point of view

I closed the wardrobe and walked to him. He look at me confusingly.

"This is for you." I said giving him a box.

"What's this." He asked me taking the box from me.

"A present for you. I bought it when I came to know that you are coming but never have a courage to give it to you." I said.

He opened the box, look at the watch then look at me. He took out the watch from the box and put the box on the table. Then he removed his wrist watch from his hand then gestured me to make him wear the new watch. I take the watch from him and make him wear.

"Do you like it." I asked him nervously.

"Like it..? I love it. This is the most beautiful gift I had ever received." He said looking at the watch then me.

"Keerti told me that you work in office at late hours. Don't be workaholic again, come home early, eat your food on time, and..." I stop in between. I don't know , should I tell him to call me on phone daily that we could talk everyday.
