Chapter 4

Diya was exhausted and all she wanted to do was to crash on her hotel bed. It was a long day at work and the flight was equally long as there was a significant delay at the airport and then an hour’s wait at the transit, it felt like an eternity for her especially a headache to go with it. The room was nice and had a nice view with an inviting breeze that nudged her to take a walk. She really wanted a hot coffee event at the warm temperature. She thought that that was nice place for a vacation and decided not to look into the papers that she had been looking into on the flight as she had directly reached the airport from work. Thursday evening had never been more inviting and as it was today. She looked at the tiny refrigerator to see if there was some milk for the coffee so that she can make some in her room. There was a small carton of milk, cheese, crackers and cut fruits. The pineapple was inviting buy she controlled her temptations as she didn’t want her headache to turn into a migraine, but instead hopped on the watermelon slices. Once her coffee was ready, she was happy to have some kids of coffee even if it was no were to her standards. She went and sat on the bamboo chair at the balcony and looked outside. The balcony was overlooking the swimming pool and she could see many cooling off while sipping her coffee and her headache was slowly disappearing.

Diya was slowing relaxing and enjoying her breeze and didn’t realize how long she had been sitting there or maybe sleeping there. She was gently awakened by the touch of two petals with a tiny bit of moisture on her cheek. She opened her eyes and picked up the little bundle of joy standing next to her and said, “Hi Baby. Had fun?” He nodded and asked, “Mommy, does you head still hurt?” and kissed her again with his pink petal lips. She kissed him on his forehead and said, “My little munchkin. My headache got so scared once these cute little lips touched me” He said, “I love you mommy” and he hugged her really tight. She picked him up and went inside to wash her hands as she noticed that they were dirty. She said, “Oh munchkin, your hands are so dirty and looks like you had too much fun out there” He replied with excitement, “Mommy! I had so much fun. Daddy and I had a chocolate ice cream and I drew a lot of pictures and I got a new friend and her name is Mia”
