A reality check, this very second.

Its a normal day. He wakes up before her, opens the door for the maid, gets back to bed. She wakes up, fixes her morning cuppa hot filter kaapi. Reads through the newspapers. Whats new in it? Its the same old crappy news that she is not interested in. Nevertheless makes an effort to be worldly wise. She has this craving to read the HT City first, but strongly says no. Thats not news. Business and Politics comes first. parties later. He walks into the room. Give me HT City. What? She askes. Reads the regular news first. Then go to the soft porn section. Anyway, she hands him teh supplement. Fixes another cuppa filter kaapi. Asks him if he wanted one. But he decides to have nimbu paani instead. She doesn't seem bothered. She finishes drinking her kaapi, reads the paper, goes to the bedroom, opens her cupboard, takes 3 sets of clothes, takes a minute to decide what she wanted to wear. Feeling a little irritated and bored, she picks out the not-so-interesting outfit. Goes for a quick shower. He gets up after drinking nimbu paani. Goes to his cupboard and pick out a formal grey suit and a bright yellow tie. Bangs the bathroom door. "Am getting late. Come out quickly". He yells. And also talks this in his mind...Gosh how long does she take in the shower. Doesn't she understand its a working day? She comes out all the more irritated.

Puts on her shoes, and says...Happy Anniversary hubby dear!
