Wife of an Engineer

One Sunday evening, we had our dinner early. So, I thought to go to the room and read a book while he was busy watching news. Later he came and asked: He : I am going for a walk, are you coming ? Me : Why Honey, do I look fat; have I gained weight ? He : No Sweetheart, just felt like going out. Me : Why is it like you are getting bored of me. He : No, not at all, just feel like having some fresh air. Its ok, I will go alone Me : Alone, ! Is someone else coming to give you company. He : No, I think you must rest, I will be back soon. Me : It seems you think, I am lazy He : Oh no!   Mommy, I am not going only ！ Me : What, I am your mother :) Finally, he did not go because I wanted to spend some quality time with him on a weekend. After all, it was a Monday next day.

As per our regular weekend routine we were busy relaxing at the pool side. My husband pointed out to a group of children. In a matter of few seconds the nostalgic moment rolled us back into our childhood.

My husband had to attend a reunion party on a weekend. Since he did not wanted to go alone he insisted me to accompany him. Honey, it’s your reunion what would I do there, I said. To which he replied “Its ok then, I will try to come back in couple of hours. Post that I played my favorite music playlist and began writing my blog. I got so engrossed that I did n’t realize what to have in dinner. I was not at all in a mood to cook . So I decided to bother my husband to get something for me on his way. I called him at 10 pm but there was no response. May be because of music he could have not heard my phone call. No response situation continued for half an hour. I got worried   as to what to do now. Neither I had any contact number of his friends. Finally, the anxiety got over. The door bell rang. I was praying to see him on the door. I had a sigh of relief but he seemed more upset than me. On seeing him, I bombarded him with a dozen of questions. He replied"Your husband w
