The challenging days
As I got off the call from my friend regarding our next meet up,the news flashed in the screen that the entire nation will be on lockdown from tomorrow. We were simply devastated and didn't know what to do next.
It was her birthday and this would have been the first time without me. Nevertheless it was a feeling of mixed emotions as the lockdown was necessary considering the present scenario. We also felt bad as the incidences of death were continuously increasing.
We made up a plan to drop all our plans and head towards the temple after the lockdown. Also, we planned to celebrate her birthday via video call. I thought of sending her a gift but that would not have been a good idea.
We are hoping for the pandemic to end soon so that we can restore all our pending plans. Also, we donated a sum of money and some groceries for the poor. Birthdays are special but nothing less than the happiness of these people.
