I sat in the airport staring at the bracelet with a lot of disappointment. Slowly, I recalled the moments when I laughed with her, touched her silky hair, looked into her eyes and heard her sweet voice that always made me smile. Eshita… my enigma.
As I was lost in my thoughts, a middle-aged man asked, “Could you take your bag?”
Noticing that a lot of other seats were empty, I hesitantly picked up my bag and he sat beside me. After he settled, he said, “That’s a wonderful bracelet. Care to tell me the story behind it?”
Noticing me confused, he continued, “I would like to kill some time. The plane to Stockholm is delayed by two hours.”
Before even answering him, I asked, “Who are you?”
With a smile, he replied, “I’m Sharma… Radha Sharma.”

Taking a deep breath, I replied, “It belongs to my girlfriend.”
