"Come back, Milo!" A shout echoed through the overgrown meadows of weed as a middle-aged woman in a flowing robe appeared out of the cottage.
The spot stood off from the hustle of the metropolis in a countryside neighbourhood of Scotland. Its inhabitants, the Lloyds, were a little pleasant household. With a pair of twins, the parents and two adoring pets (a kitten and a dog), the house was refreshed with laughter for the past two months.
The woman, Khanak Lloyd had given birth to two gorgeous kids more than a decade back, Kashmira and Rohan Lloyd. Their birth suppressed a relatively intriguing tale behind it. It had been about 17 years since Freddy Lloyd, their dad, had first caught a glimpse of Khanak during his solo voyage to India. She was residing with her sister, her parents long dead. The day he saw her was the day he had loved her.
Luckily enough, Khanak comprehended English and Freddy had learned a little Hindi before his journey. He persuaded her into bestowing him a tour of her town, Kashmir. The girl with a kind nature consented to it, not realizing the expeditions she had unknowingly willed to.
The location was more stunning than Freddy had visualized but it was a trifle contradicted by Khanak. Her sandy skin and nearly black eyes had mesmerized him. Her long brown hair and the kohl in her eyes was all he saw throughout the trip.
This resumed for hardly three months when Freddy acknowledged that he had to go back to his home, England. Khanak was disappointed but she put on a polite face for him. Both bid farewell supposing that was it, but destiny had distinct opinions. Something inside Freddy clasped as he was about to board the plane to Delhi to take an international flight from there. He couldn't visualize settling without her. So like all the cliche movies, he missed the flight and scampered back to his darling.
