He was ready to leave, everyone was already in the SUV when his father’s wheelchair came at a stop behind him. He had not woken up early due to his medication and Arnav had also requested his mother to let him sleep because he was anyway here only for a few hours. Looking at him, Arnav walked forward and bent down to touch his feet. His dad’s hand rested on his head for a long time.
Arnav looked up and his father gave him a small smile.
“Bahu ko lene ja raha hai?” he inquired if Arnav was going to get his daughter in law. Arnav nodded in agreement.
“Will you go to bhagwanpur too?” His father asked and Arnav’s posture stiffened. The moment was too good to last anyway. He said no.
“It’s okay” His father said, surprising him. “Come back soon next time, both of you!”
Arnav gave a near imperceptible nod, touched his mother’s feet and left.
