Affair

Was dating a co-worker ever a good idea?
Was it only physical? Was there no mental connect?

Feeling ecstasy to feeling shame. 
Feeling pleasure to feeling used.
Her mind always vacillated. 

She wished she could find out. 
Only, if he were not married.

Love

Oiling your face means you will love your mother more.

Would it work the other way around?” wondered 5-year old Malutty, about her muthassi’s* tip.
She poured out a handful. 

And hoped her step-mom would love her more. 

* Muthassi = Grandma (in Malayalam)
