“It's hard being left behind. (...) It's hard to be the one who stays.” - Audrey Niffenegger, The Time Traveler's Wife
She wears a green Ohna/Dupatta/Chunni over her head, resting her face on her palm - looking far at the window, perhaps at the door - for a knock on the door, or whistle of the letter. She has been waiting and the wrinkles on her face tell it’s not all that’s sad, she has a little frown of frustration but hopefulness, she’s patient but not willing to be - time tests her every day, every minute passing by but the gold of her chain and rings wouldn’t fade as yet and neither the wisdom of ‘it’s never too late’ in hope of the age she has lived.
