Are you cold ?
​​The sound of rain hushed the world,
thunder scaring the sky as the winds whirled .

Taking my gaze away from the window sill, across the room my eyes try to catch his.

As people plan to leave early to reach home safe , I wish for us to dance in a drenched evening's embrace.

I signal to him as my lips mouth,

"Lets meet at our spot , behind the old guesthouse."

No umbrella is needed for he is my cover , we haste towards the tea stall as the dark clouds hover.

"Bring a biscuit" I say,
"we will split it in two.
I bought a full cup of tea to share half with you."

"Why didn't you wear a coat! You might end up sick tomorrow!"
As I smile playfully his presence is already wiping my day's sorrow.

Softening the frown with concern in his eyes, he wrapped me in his jacket and asked,
"Are you cold?"

Taking his warm hands in mine I say,

"Not anymore."
