A love in the hours of daylight


It was a day swallowed by calmness and revitalized from a bustling strenuous week that really was a discreet Sunday 12th November. Somewhere proximate by road on the fifth flat of tanned building my poor mom was slowly recuperating from deadly sickness. Soaking in the late afternoon 45-degree rays of sun I was fronting my mom, well two of us were talking on the subject of our family.
Meanwhile, a heavy footstep hit the attic floor in a grumbling noise that made me complain about for being so callous in absence of common sense. Swiftly mom was thrashing her coat and wrapping her nose when I looked up to notice a dust dazzling through the ridge of ceiling overhead.

After a while, I was distracted from my talk to the thought of who would be and how many tenants would be residing in the attic flat. By then I heard a rusty male voice followed by a soft woman chat going on. I just wanted to forget everything and focus on a conversation I was having with mom but their dialogue began to hype each other and they took a step ahead by making it so intensive but awkward situation at the moment for the people beneath them. It was so clear and easy to know and learn what’s going on above and below as the fifth flat and attic being separated by shingles.
When lust overpowers the human emotion it completely blinds to see things going around. That takes human beings to that era and if not worse we aren’t better than animals. Thousands of questions descended over my thoughts instantly when pair above began to have filthy talks and activities began to take place in a broad daylight.

By then I was awestruck with them and stunned of not having any option than to leave to sitting room keeping mom alone while masking my embarrassment and portraying gleaming willingness of watching my favorite TV show. Reaching there I was praying and expecting to finish their business soon and completely but it seemed far from over.  To just cover up the scenario, a foremost thing I did was switch the TV on but even it took me some time to raise the volume high enough. No sooner did I do this than it became as a warning signal for them that worked wonder to refresh the situation to make as normal as it is for both above and below.
