STORY - OLD AGE HOME

Wife is required in young age, to enjoy the good life; but her presence is even mor essential in old age, when you are not able to take bath alone, without her help. She left me when I was sixty. When children, grandchildren and their children found me inconvenient and irksome, they put me in an old age home for the wealthy people. Life became easy and comfortable, without pin pricks. The company of old people was not enjoyed by me, but some young women were there, I did not know why. I enquired one from Bolivia, named Grace. She could speak English.
“How are you here in India? Who brought you in this home ?”
“I had my husband who is an Indian. Ours was a love marriage. He took me to Kashi, where he disappeared. Some kind couple brought me here. Here I am not an inmate; I am a tailor and earn wages for my work. What about you?”
“I belong to Kerala. Like Cile, it is edged between Western Ghats and the Arabian sea.”
“Your family?” “It is very big. Come to my room; I will show all things in the net on my computer.”
We attended prayers in the evening and then I took her to my room.” On the way upstairs, I explained that I am a Hindu, but never went to Kashi. I have seen it only in the TV. Do you like to watch the Channels?”
“Only after you show me your people.” I took out the CD and played it. “Wonderful. Why did you come here?”
“my dear wife left me and I became lonely even among the crowd you saw here. It is all His grace. Now I have another Grace.” I looked at her. She may not be more than forty. Her facial muscles have not crumpled. Her eyes are blue. Only her teeth are blackish and some have already fallen.”Do you not care for our teeth? I shall take you to a dentist.” Then I switched on the TV.”Do you see serials?” She kept mum; so I changed to discovery channel. It was ten and I began to make my bed.”It is a woman’s work”, she said and told me to sit back. “It is sufficiently big. If you like, we can share it.” She thought for some time and then said:”I will tell my mate. Wait till I come back.” She returned after ten minutes, excited and happy. We remained awake for a long tome. Then she put out the light and we slept together.
The next day we went to a dentist. He cleaned her teeth and examined it. He suggested removing some and filling in a few cases. I paid the bill and we returned to her work and I to my room, satisfied with the turn of events. In the evening, I did not attend prayers. She came at seven and we repeated yesterday’s routine. This time, I was determined to try her, come what may. When she switched off the light, I lay beside her and stroked her breasts, which were large and sumptuous. She embraced me and told in my ears:”Please make love.”
Thus began my second love affair in my life.
