उत्तर
Months of endless cooped-in at home. Not even visiting friends, no public events or social gatherings! She was just HELL! Just the mobiles and other technical tools provided gateways to the outer world. Fear seized every heart and sent words like Corona, co-morbidities, masking, hand washing, and lockdowns flying. The dread of the unknown. No companies of friends; no educational institution. Online courses and working from home become the daily grind. Luckily, several immunisations and other activities meant to boost immunity fit the circumstances and gradually things started to get better.
A day later, the doorbell rang. There was a family invitation to a wedding. The firstborn of my uncle's sons was getting married! As we got ready to see our extended family, there was an obvious thrill. As we enthusiastically chose our clothes and accessories, my father's approval was clear-cut. It seemed like a fresh start, a breath of fresh air following months of restriction.
The delight was contagious. Nearly all arrived sporting their finest smiles and attire. To my ears, the music, the laughter, the politeness shared were manna! A long time later, a true get-together! Reminding us of the value of family relationships, grandparents gracefully and warmly oversaw the event. Their lovely words and gentle hugs brought back my missing of them. Realising how crucial it is to be in touch, cousins from various states and countries made it a point to show up for the event. All hugged, laughed, and even shed a few maudlin tears, quite naturally.
We sat for a feast for the first time in many months. There was no mask, no social separation, no sterilising agent. One had a fresh sensation of freedom. The food was first-rate, including all the classic fare, supplied in plenty. As a large family sitting together and savouring the gay banter among one another, we loved every one of them.
Tummies are satisfied, and the marriage function was over. Now was the time for fun. Parents of the bride and the groom gave embarrassing speeches. There were guffas and "giggles," all in excellent spirits, which would not let me wish the night over. Indeed, dance existed. As the young and the aged matched their feet, the DJ played hit tunes with all foot tapping rhythms. Indeed, it was a most unforgettable event and all the more enjoyable as life seemed to follow its usual rhythm.
