You know what I miss most after a long day?
Not a beer. Not silence.
Just a hot cup of tea with Maa.
That too, the way she makes it—half milk, too much ginger, and way too many questions.
“Had lunch?”
“Office okay?”
“You look tired. You’re not sleeping, are you?”
It used to annoy me.
Now it’s all I want.
There’s something about that kind of love—nosy, overboiled, too warm—that just fixes you.
Even if the tea is never quite right.
