Happy Birthday!
The stage was set, a gala ceremony in progress. Fancy faces wearing fancy dresses surrounded me, as I sat cross legged waiting for Him. Fire engulfed offerings and wiped tears off. A part of me was happy.
He walked the aisle amidst loud cheers. Many congratulated the groom and appreciated my father’s selection of birthday present.
A pair of fingers kissed my lower chin. I looked up to meet his wrinkled face. His grey hair sparkled as he whispered Happy Sixteenth Birthday to me.
I shyly glanced down as tears trickled down on to my Mehendi-decorated fingers.
