Learning the city way

Sitting cross-legged on the grass and holding each other’s hands, both Raju and Rukmini lost track of time.

There were streaks of orange light in the evening sky. The natural light gave place to masses of light southeast of Pame, upon which the urban Lakeside glowed like a constellation of stars. Sitting cross-legged on the grass and holding each other’s hands, both Raju and Rukmini lost track of time. They had no clue the day had slipped away just like that. It always seems like time passes more quickly when a person is with someone who gets them. It was possible that Raju and Rukmini might have been the actors of this phenomenon.
