It had been raining in the morning since last two days. She had been unable to sleep and so had observed the beauty of cloudy weather which she thought to herself was "her kind of weather". She sat by the window and observed the silent houses. Silent they stood, appearing very cozy and peaceful. Sometimes she had desired to observe how life went on in those houses, which she'd loved to look at from her window. She wanted to see the solace she lacked in her home, if it was present in those houses, which always seemed likely that it was.. She was sure of it, she knew by heart. She wanted to see how people cared for each other in those cozy looking houses, how their mornings and evenings were so she could fill her heart with warmth of life which she dreamed to live!!! She wanted to know how they were set and arranged and adorned which made them look so restful, and people living it appeared to be in a clover....
She recalled her school days when she was dropped quite earlier to school. The only charm for her mornings then,, was rushing to the roof top of school building, which was the assembly area, and to just stand there and observe the houses that were present across the road.. She would stand there, often seeing children dressed in uniforms coming out, their mom's waving them good bye and children waving and giving a flying kiss to their mom. She loved the satisfactory look on mom's face which filled her heart with warmth.. That warmth somehow was enough to get her positively energized for the day...
She lacked this positive energy after she left school, she thought. She wished to see the face of that stranger mom, who would lit her up as she used when she was little, she missed being that way....
Drifted in thoughts of her own, she enjoyed watching the houses and loved the harmony they were in and assumed herself to be in same harmony in the silence, with herself and her thoughts...
