It was their first honeymoon together – second for her, and fifth for her husband. Both had been married and separated before, but they claimed to have found their final destination in each other.
He clicked several pictures of her under the long-leaf pine tree at the entrance of the Taj Mahal.
“Will you pine for me in the same manner as Shah Jahan did for Mumtaz Mahal?”
“Only if you are buried in there, or somewhere near…”
She suddenly felt unsafe in his company, thinking of the huge amount she had been insured for.

Hmmm…wondering about the value of that insurance policy. There may be yet another separation in the future, perhaps even a final one. What a Six with a twist!
