We all love surprises, some are pleasant while others are
unpleasant. But surprises enable us to capture some beautiful expression of an
individual, which can’t be seen normally. We plan for surprises keeping certain
things as constant and evading uncertainties attached to it. Have you ever
thought how an individual would feel, when surprise doesn’t go as planned? I
have no idea about it as till date none of my surprises has been spoiled. Would
like to share an incident here on, “how my wife’s surprise was revealed before time?”
My B’day is on 8th july, it was my first b’day
post marriage. I had done my bit in advance, by booking a table for us, in one of
the restaurants she has been willing to go for a long time. On 7th
we went out for grocery shopping, after coming back had dinner and I went to bed.
Saw my wife was busy reading a magazine, it was 11.30 pm then. After 10-15 mins
she came to room. Suddenly realized I left my water bottle on the dining table.
I got up to get it, the moment I touched the door to open it, my wife enquired the
reason. I told her, left my water bottle outside, going to take it, she told “I
will get it for you”. I told no its fine and came out of the room.
There I discovered the surprise which she had planned for
me. On dining table “a small cake, 2
neatly wrapped gifts and a burning candle”.
All I could do that time was to laugh loud and nothing else. Athira was
telling – “I waited for 15 mins so that you can settle down but this water
bottle, it spoiled my plan” . She was annoyed and I could see it. We headed
towards to bedroom with my water bottle (surprise spoiler).
Lying on bed I was laughing like anything while she was
cursing herself, as things didn’t go the way it was planned. We were waiting
eagerly for the clock to strike 12 to cut the cake. At 12 Athira wished me and
we headed towards the dining table for cutting the cake. I cut the cake, gave her the first bite and
then hogged on to gifts (I love gifts).
I know some where Athira was disturbed, as she was not able
to surprise me the way it was planned. But its ok, you can’t be successful
everytime.. Right
She had surprised me beyond my expectation on valentine’s
day. These are wonderful memories to be cherished upon.
