The routine rush for office, constant texting, guzzling milk
at last minute and the sick hustle bustle of life. The city wraps its people in
it with much anguish, greed, money and bafflement. Amongst all this chagrin it
was bliss to watch the contended old couple out for a morning walk, holding
hands and sharing love. They looked so amazing and so fond of each other! I
smiled and walked away!
Sometimes watching someone happy is enough to make ourselves
happy. And we try to find it in parties, hookahs, shots and sex. J The moment I thought
that true love was confined only within the walls of a movie theater or between
the pages of a novel; I came across a damsel, the sparkling, joyous, mirthful female
winning million hearts wherever she went.
But as they say love stories aren't made if there are no
bruises. It seemed like God already planned everything for her. A happy go lucky girl, already in love and trying hard to build her dreams. That’s
exactly when a handsome stranger, younger to her :P, a playboy maybe (as he
called himself) entered her life and
waffled everything around her. She was amused by his ways. He was truly a
charmer. Perhaps he took her away in a wonderland! Day and night she kept
thinking about him. She was so unsure about what all was happening in her life.
So scared and so nervous. The first kiss they had, his touch, even his simple
presence started wobbling her head! And the best part was she never expressed
all this. She kept denying that she felt exactly the same with him. There were
a million things stopping her; her future, her family and most importantly the feeling that she could not fall in love. As they say, a girl sacrifices her wishes, her pleasures just to keep
things in harmony, so did she. But deep inside, she was dying everyday. And I
mean it. He saw the times when she refused to meet him but never found out that
each day just to see him she lied to practically everyone around her, kept everything so
complicated for everyone, but for a reason. She simply wanted to live a few
moments with him which meant the whole world to her.
Nobody could see how
everyday she spent hours in making her hair just because once he said I don’t like
your hair. Nobody could see how she changed her nail paint every week because once
he said “such long pretty nails” :). With all the fear in her heart she went on
long drives with him after dawn, just to make him feel that she wasn't conservative. She kept lying to him that she isn't romantic, that she finds all
this cheesy, that she is a bad kisser only to stop him falling in love with
her.
Yes she sacrificed it all, created a little drama, yet never
hated him when he simply one day moved away from her life. I don’t know how it
happens when people fall in love again and start feeling the same for someone
else. I could never. And today when she sees him with his new ‘lady’ she smiles
, laughs with him, shares his problems, advises him, takes care of him for the
simple reason that she still cant afford to lose him she still feels connected
through all this. She still carries the hope that one day he might understand
how he meant the whole world to her and how badly she wants him to be happy.
Love may end but the relationship can never. Not always is it necessary to
express, not always is it important to impress, sometimes seeing someone
blessed and merry can make your life worth living!
