Quietly...



                                   



One after the other they kept coming but replies never came
Eagerness gave way to reluctance and shyness to denial
The remorse face of her mother reminded her of the pathetic condition she was in


His eyes never saw a letter of approval by the recruiters
They weren’t late in branding him as the ugly scar on his family’s face
But his undying spirit never let him down and he finally settled well


Fate pulled them in , to alleviate the emptiness surrounding them
“It’s quite late now” they grumbled


Few signatures inside the court’s premises and happiness quietly sneaked in
