Just A Moment
He had worked. Uncomplainingly. He had toiled. Noiselessly. He had borne. Convincingly. He had cried. Silently. He had cared. Lovingly. He had slept. Peacefully. He had been a paragon of silent endurance, of undemanding friendship, of thoughtful actions, of unassuming charm. His composure had been immaculate. He betrayed nothing. No reward, no recognition that had been due had been endowed on him, nor would it be, but it had never stopped him from carrying out his duties. He had persisted with them untiringly. During his ordeal, away from the eyes of everyone, he snatched a moment for himself and allowed himself to slump, to hold his aching back. The next instant, he was smiling innocently and entertaining, as he was expected to. No one knew what had passed in that one moment.

Thanx Prakash, for dropping by...for the posts, no I do not have too much spare time these days, but these two posts were meant for two friends who mean a lot to me...so...
Cannot go into the details over here, but you are free to interpret it in your own way... :)

Great Post... but i guess very few know the real meaning of it to be really able to enjoy the emotions...
And surely hats off to the person to whom this post is dedicated.
Thanks Swetank...!!!
You're welcome, Nikhil, but this post was for someone else, if that's what you're thanking me for.
