Terence's mind was also getting strange from the inside. Leaving Veenu and going back to duty, his life was threatened just thinking about it, but duty is duty. He was a paracommando, so there was an additional responsibility on his shoulders.
He was trying to keep Veenu happy so he could spend these few days with her in love and peace, but he was seeing that Veenu's eyes were filled with tears time and again. She kept silently wiping her tears, but Terence could understand her feelings.
Ten of the fifteen days of his leave had already passed. Terrence remembered how he thought about Veenu day in and day out during duty, and even after coming here, he could not sleep properly.
He stayed awake all night, looking at Veenu and stroking her hair. He didn't know how many months after going back from here he would not be able to see her again or if he would ever be able to see her or not.
There was pandemonium in his heart as he felt he would become the target of a bullet in the forest in the next search operation.
He silently wiped his eyes. He was a commando, but he was also a husband, and he loved his wife more than himself.
This is my story; now you have to use your imagination to give it a new dimension. You can take it right or left, whichever direction you deem fit, but give me something that leaves me amazed.
