IS HE STILL IMPORTANT?

11.30 am, Richard's Cafe

After driving for an hour or less, she reached the cafe with utter confusion about what to talk to a guy whom she has never known, yet had to interact for getting a conclusion about her very future.

Parking her car in the parking lot, she walked slow combing her hair straight with her fingers, towards the cafe putting her stoll on neat over her shoulders so as not to look messy as her thoughts were then.

I had looked through his pictures only and now what if I dont get to identify the guy! I hope its something new with the filters and his pictures else am gonna go out with someone else. 

Scanning through the people sitting in the cafe , her eyes rolled to find him, when finally she got to see a guy with black goggles waving his hands at her with a wide frown on his face.

" HEY " the guy called up looking at her,
" Yeah, HI" , she smiled back at him and went across some three to four tables to reach him sitting at one.

Standing with a nice bright smile the guy replied , " Hey, I am Sambhav , Anishka right? " 

Yeah. I am Anishka , sorry for having you waiting since long. You know how lingering these traffics can be on weekends! " she replied back with a short smile 

Yeah , yeah I totally can relate to that. Thank god, I started earlier today. So tell me what would you like to order as I have already ordered a black coffee for me" he asked calling the waiter to the table

" Oh! I seem to have been quite late," she chuckled at him and ordered a cappuccino with extra cream for her. 

" NO, its totally alright with me."  he assured

After talking about their professions for some time, they drifted to the varied topics of world, politics, movies and many more . Being a doctor he kept on talking about his new ventures he has been planning to work on and she was enjoying his all short long talks with her pausing smiles and laughter. 

 He seems to be a good person , tactical and  practical person. Well thank god, my weekend didn't just go wasted on some creeps. Am I judging way too faster, Am I wrong , what if he is having his first impression right?

Tossing through her innumerable feelings inside her head she looked around the cafe while listening to Sambhav when her ears heard past the same familiar voice she has been hearing to since long back and had been missing since past few months. Suddenly she became deaf to the voice of the person sitting infront of her and she started searching the voice amongst the crowd. 
Looking back , side , front and every other direction she could move her head without letting the attention of him to get aware of her curiosity to find the voice out. 

"Hey, do you need anything. I see you are distracted or something. All good? Are you getting bored by my constant blabber? ,Sambhav asked

Stammering for few seconds she replied ,"NO, no no not at all. I was hearing you out only. 

"Well, Cool then you say something." he asked with a plausible frown on his face

She smiled at him and sipped the cappucino with the urge to get that voice infront of her.As she sipped the last drink from cup and was about to wipe the froth of the coffee from her lips, her eyes met the eyes of the person whose voice hovered over her feelings and interest by the time then.

It's him. i knew it.It's him

Her face exalted and she kept on staring at him for long till he oozed out of her sight. 

After constant nudge from Sambhav , she could not react to the situation there and finally asked his leave and collected her car keys from the table. She insisted on paying the bill which was later subsided by doctor guy. Hoping to meet again in near future , the guy asked her if they could meet sooner.
 " Thank you . bye." was her only reply as she gushed fast out of the place tucking her hair strands behind her shoulder whilst leaving him surprised.

She was taken aback by the voice or those eyes or by that person who seemed to be more of her interest than the person suited for her, by her parents who was infront of him? Was he still that important for her now? Was she avoiding him because she was weak with him by side or stronger with his support that she ignored the decent doctor guy? 
Why did he leave without talking to her and if so Is she still important to him now or not ? These were those questions which were constantly nagging her as she drove back home. She had to identify answers to these questions of her which has kept her stand still in the flow of time.

SHE TYPED HELLO..

Image
Midnight past 1:30 a.m. The room was filled with silence and she did change her sides on bed, thinking about the upcoming chores. Woke up to half sitting posture, she took her phone in hand owing to get the notification light blinking off. She dozed through her screen scrolling notifications down and then further down. Stopped past her messenger notification, she smiled and swiftly sprung back to her head down to the pillow, to sleep getting covered with her another pillow in between her arms. After few of the time she got into to reply to the unreplied message of him. "HELLO..!" she typed after tussling with her long ascertained feelings.The soon as the message as got dropped, swift reply did came from his side. "HEY BEAUTIFUL...GOT YOU AFTER LONG!", with a playful smiley. She smiled and reciprocated the sense of playfulness with, "INDEED.. YOU MIGHT BE BUSY AFTER ALL." she replied with same smiley. "OH.. COM'ON YOU KNOW I HAVE BEEN A...

TODAY IT'S ABOUT YOU

Dear MOMMY! Its true that god can't be everywhere so he gave us mom to stay by us and guide us through our good and bad days. Yes, it's also true that when you have been compared to god, you are never less than him, as none is capable of letting a piece of their flesh or a drop of their blood for anyone else as you have done to get us in this world. That too with utter patience and at same time with anxiety of waiting for 10 months, which is not as easy as the words i just penned down! The whole life of yours had me, but today its not about me. Today, its about you.  Thank you for the blood and bones I am made up of today, but you know what! I am much more grateful to the values and the teachings of yours about the life, the people, the world and most importantly, you. Its true that you have recited ample preaching of gods, told many tales of braves and worldly heroes, but I don't remember hearing the story of the hero of my life- which is you, maa. I remember th...

IT'S OKAY NOT TO END UP WITH YOUR LOVE!

Image
It is said "Pairs are made in heaven", well ofcourse when we choose one among the billions of heart to love , then surely our soul mate is that one soul only, whom we term as our 'love of life' . When the one, we take as our only person in life holds our hand our heart paces and hormones cling us high & likewise when he hurts us we go lost in deep down depths of our agonies and heartbreak. As we take them as our permanent soulmates, we usher our unstinted love upon them and fathom our trust in them. As time goes by, we feel our bond is going strong and nothing would let us apart from each other, while certain mishaps break us down & tear us apart distant away from each other.  Suddenly, the feeling of love abrupts and nomore things get right between the broken ones. The happiness and feeling of being complete with each other, certainly changes to being not right for each other. The decision of moments shatters down the long bond of love and togetherness...
