THE CHALLENGE
Karthik and Sindhu were in their own
happy bubble, completely oblivious to
what's happening around when they
heard a yell from downstairs making
them pull back in fright; like teenagers
caught doing something naughty.
"Sindhu. Breakfast is ready. Bring your
husband"
She cleared her throat awkwardly "Let's go"
"Wait" He pulled her back, intertwining
his fingers with hers and headed
downstairs.
They sat beside each other while Padma was seated at the head of the table. A servant girl served hot Poori on their plate with Potato curry.
"Yum" Sindhu muttered looking at her
favorite breakfast making Karthik and
Padma chuckle.
"Did you make this for me?" she asked
with an exciting smile and Karthik
realized how much he missed seeing
that.
Her aunt smiled "I know you'll have a
healthy appetite now that your husband is here"
"I hope I didn't disturb anything" Padma
