1.36pm (Bahrian time)
It’s an empty house I have come home to today. The sunlight is swishing in through the French windows this afternoon, unlike it’s angry barge a few days back.
For some reason, I am experiencing more fascinating things in the morning than in the evening out here in Bahrain.
This can be rather distressing for a person who is chummier with the night than the day.
An experience is an experience though. New, revealing and most often a delicious surprise. One mustn’t complain.
My morning began at utterly ungodly hour (6am) and I had to set out in godlier trimmings to do the pretty for a gaggle of women known to be formidable.
I set out to meet Melroy’s teachers today.
As one is bound to feel about an encounter with the keepers of enlightenment, I was raggedly nervous.
By the end of the morning, I found myself to be daughter-in-law to around 30 odd women!
While my paragon of a fiance is by no means a saint, he has apparently endeared himself to around two dozen lovely, intelligent women.
Jealous is me? Nope. Startled is I more like.
It is a good thing charm can be switched on and off, but what is even better is that the only woman He bothers to completely exclude from his aura of dazzlement is me.
I would be utterly disgruntled with Him were it otherwise. A women should never be too easy to please. Not with her lover

I like this entire process you’re going through. Its a way of observing your fiancee through the minds of those that moulded his mind. The process of discovery never ends and yes …even a lifetime is too short to know a person..
Enjoy the journey!

Just thought I’ll drop in although I have nothing much to say…
I will be a teacher soon. It feels nice to dream that years later, my second graders will walk in with their romantic interests!
I will feel like I am a mother to so many! Its wonderful…

Thank you Reh and it is just as you say- one lifetime can never be enough.
