"Are you happy??"
Her question took me off guard. It was not something I was expecting her to ask at all.
I thought of having her judgemental views or maybe mock me for my poor condition.
But then Pauline...she was always so different. I looked up at her and smiled.
"I love him."
I hoped she understood it all. And by the looks, she did. She smiled back at me.
Who could relate more with me than her??
She too loved a man, not of her class and struggled to make a place for herself in it.
"I m glad. At least you ended up being with the man you love...and that is all that matters."
Pauline elaborate. I could not agree more with her.
And suddenly it started to rain again. July rain could never stop even on a sunny day.
