‘So this is what it has come to be.’
‘What do you mean?’
‘Well, I’d thought that we shared something special. I am
still not able to accept that you have left me for good.’
‘Do not go down that lane again, mate. Didn’t I tell you
that I am not calling this off? I just need a break for a while.’
‘Why can’t you do your thinking with me around? Be honest
with me. Am I not good enough for you anymore?’
‘Let us not fool ourselves, Vishnu. You got to admit that
things have not been exactly smooth lately. You seemed to be taking me for
granted. So I thought perhaps it would do both of us good if we were on our own
for a while. Would give us some quality time for an introspection, don’t you
think?’
‘I don’t know. I like it when we are together. It has been a month
already. My friends have started asking questions.’
‘Tell them not to worry anymore. Call them over to your
place. Tell them that nothing has ended.’
‘Wow. Thank You. Let me call them right away.’
‘Go on.’

‘Vishnu, you there?’
‘Yeah! Why?’
‘Why haven’t you named our baby?’
‘I have.’
‘What is it?’
‘Writer’s Block. Do you like it?’
‘It is apt. But why haven’t you mentioned it at the top?’
‘Would have given away the plot.’
‘Smart. I love you.’
‘I love you too.’
