Emotional Enigma.

She loved a lot. 
Genuinely did.

She didn't hug. She didn't say 'I love you'.
Expressing was not her cup of tea.

It was her first holiday.
After three complete months from a job 2000 kms away.

She'd missed her moms cooking.

Called in for the flight.
Excited, she held her bag tight.

For flying the very first time, she'd had a sleepless night.
The sleep demon, she couldn't fight.
And drifted into a nap.

An hour later, she woke up to the sound of announcements.
They signalled,
Turbulent weather
Emergency landing
Oxygen masks and life jackets.

Her whole life flashed in front of her eyes.
And her heartbeat had a rise.

Her moms unconditional love.
Fights with her brother were still incomplete.
The unmatched lessons her dad gave her over the years.

The end of it all was near.
The loud sound of her heartbeat she could hear.

The flying beast almost swayed.
So passionately, anyone in there, had never prayed.

It took a while.
For the nature and its Creator to show, they had something else in store.

The beast turned into an obedient machine.
Their fates had flipped and they were back on land.

She saw her mother and her eyes watered.
With her hands, her face, she covered.

She had an emotional rush.
For now, her heart needed to 'shush',
And she did something she ever so rarely did before.
She HUGGED her mom like never before.
