Saari Umar Humein Sang Rehna Hai.
"Phoolon ka taaron ka, sabka kehna hai
Ek hazaaron mein meri behena hai
Saari umar humein sang rehna hai."
This song has always made me cry. Even before I had a reason. I've never known why. Maybe it's one of those premonitions.
So, it's Rakhi. I see people posting on Facebook/Twitter about their brothers and sisters and how they're bonding today. I want that, too.
This time last year, I was at home. Tanvi and I were tying our rakhis to Gautam and feeding him his favourite laddoos. He divided all his savings - it was a pretty big amount, I can tell you that -amongst the two of us. I remember asking him, "You do know that you'll have to match this in the coming years as well?"
I don't remember what he said in reply.
It really makes me wonder. Why would he do something like that? Did he know all along?
