Suddenly she hears sounds of the bell and quickly goes to the window but she looks at a kite laid on the roof with two cracks, but it was her fantasy. After that, she got to remember soon her husband will come home from work. That's why; she becomes busy in making him up intently. Suddenly sadness surrounds her mind, compels him to throw all things from the dressing table; like books, bangles, condom packets etc. She could not understand why she has been dressed up until now. Again she gets back near the window and looks at a child who is played with a bicycle then too. But the child was alone and her playmate-brother didn't come like every day.
