Until 5 yrs ago, every birthday that #Kaira celebrated together was a time of happiness, where misunderstandings would be cleared, paving way for them to come closer together
But for the 1st time, their happiness is incomplete cuz their hearts still long for their union.

He's so dejected that he couldn't bring in his son's birthday that his own slips from his mind.
But he can forget, not her. She brings back his lost smile by being the 1st to wish him.
And finally, the wish he'd made for 5 yrs- for her to wish him again- came true
#Kaira #Yrrkh

If he's prayed every year for her to wish him somehow, she has waited just as desperately to make that happen.
5 years of missing this day & celebrating it unnoticed has culminated to this moment - watching him be wished by his family - & she can't help but smile.

Hugs were a reflex for #Kaira. They never needed an occasion or an excuse to express their love for each other with this simple gesture.
But 5 yrs later, it's not as simple. There's an awkwardness, especially in front of the family, to fall back on old habits.

Not as special as a hug, yet not as incomplete as a verbal wish - #Kaira settle on a handshake - wondering how things became so awkward & formal between them
They, who couldn't stay a moment apart, were now trying to express their love with the gentle squeeze of the hand

How strange is it to say bye to the one you love, on the day that's meant to be celebrated together?
#Kaira are in a situation they wish they weren't in. He can't stay & she can't ask him to.
And as he turns to leave, you can see the smiles fade- their pain & guilt is back

She watches him walk away, silently praying for him to find happiness in life & to create memories everyday.

As he walks away, all he can remember is their moments together & the happiness she brought in his life.

She wished for his happiness, he wished for her.

He turns around to find her rooted to the spot he left her moments ago.
It's simple right? He loves her, she loves him- they want to be together. Then why is life so complicated?
Frustrated, he leaves while she breaks down silently. But #Kaira'll find their way back soon
