Her evening routine is to stand on a table below the big wide window and look for her baba returning home from work. She can see a little patch of road through the trees nine storeys below and gets excited when she sees someone walk by or when she spots a red bus. I enjoy the routine as much as she does.
Her dad's away on a short work related trip and while she didn't show any signs yesterday (first day of his being away) of missing him, the first thing she did this morning after she was up was to climb up on that bench and look for baba. I quickly distracted her with her breakfast and told her baba is in office. "Oh baba office" she repeated and nodded as if she understood.
I wanted to capture this moment for him and torture him a little, hence this post. I know he’s missing her too.
She's back on her perch looking for baba as I type this and simultaneously is on a pretend phone call with Kushi, her friend, in India.
Sigh, I have a long day ahead.
