It's J-Day!! She arrives at 11pm today by Air India. I am a cocktail of excited and apprehensive.
It's a hot and humid day, even by Bombay standards. I reach the airport on time, but what's this?
The terminal is a rollicking mess, a mixture of mismanagement and repairs. Yes, yes I know we're trying to build a better tomorrow, but my girlfriend is arriving
today!!
What she is going to think???!! I am really a bundle of nerves. I look around me. Wow, we have so many people, what are all these people doing here at this hour.
Why do they stand right in the middle of the path, not allowing passengers to walk out peacefully?
I park myself on the side. I am tall, as is TheOne® (she almost 5 feet 10 inches), I will see her when she arrives.
Suddenly I see her across many people. No looking around, somehow she knows exactly where to look and sees me. She breaks into a beautiful smile. No, she doesn't seem shocked seeing the people around her.
I walk up to her baggage cart quickly.
Everything's going to be alright
