Love: A day in August

 The temperature was 30 degrees and the time was 6:00 am. She slept late last night but still woke up early. She got up, wore he jogging tracks and tee to go with in a warm morning. She put on her shoes and left home bidding a good bye to her mother. She was going for a morning walk, rather jog as she wanted to get back in shape. She had put on a few kilos and that was irritating her. The park was full of people; some young, some old and a few kids. Everyone wanted to taste the freshness of a beautiful morning and so they were there. A few were running, some others walking and talking. The old ones were busy with their laughter therapy and the kids were playing. She entered and joined the runners. But all the time only he was on his mind. She could not forget the last night's conversation. Her eyes were full of tears. She was completely frustrated and that is why she left home early that morning to spend some alone time. After a few rounds she went and sat at one of the benches. The conversation was still on her mind and was not leaving her. When she was thinking she did not notice that a little girl came and sat beside her and was looking at her. Tears were rolling down her eyes and the little girl with her cute soft hands rubbed them and smiled. This bought a smile on her face and she started playing with the little girl to rejuvenate her mood. At 7:00 am she left the park. At home her mother was waiting for her with breakfast but she refused and went straight into her room. She sat on her bed and closed her eyes and thought, "Is the person so important and worth that I am wasting my tears for him?" But could not find an answer. Later she took a bath had her breakfast and started her daily work. It was 12 in the noon and not a single call. She thought that may be he would realize the mistake and call but no. She finished her work had her lunch and went to finish the rest of her work. But he was there always on her mind and the conversation too. It was 4:00 pm and still no calls. This time she did not wanted to call and waited for his call. She had decided that she wont give up this time. She was unaware of the night. She did not have her dinner and went off to sleep. At 12:00 am, midnight her phone buzzed and his name was flashing. That bought a smile on her face but she was still angry. She picked up the phone and asked what she had asked last night and did not get an answer. 

She: Do you love me?

He: (Silent)
She: (Getting angry) Do you love me or not?

He: Shhhhh

She: Don't try to avoid the question.

He: Come out.

She: What?

He: Stop it and come out.

She thought it to be a poor joke and went out. In the darkness only one candle was lit up. She went nearer to that and now could see his face clearly. She was shocked. She opened the door and went out. All silent. There he was standing with a dozen roses and a cake. 

She: I......

He: Shhhh, don't speak..

She: But.........

He: I am sorry......

She: How come you here, you were out of town?

He: Sorry I did not talk properly last night otherwise how could I've surprised you this way?

She again had tears in her eyes and this time those were tears of happiness. She got her answer then and there.

She: (Silent with tears in her eyes)

He: I love you. Always and Forever. Happy Anniversary. Its been 4 years of togetherness and how could you  think that I will forget the day. I did not forget but had planned a surprise for you baby.

She: I love you too. (And with this they hugged each other)

Then they cut the cake and ate the cake as she was very very hungry and it was a chocolate cake, her favorite. She was holding on to him as long as they were together. Then they planned their next day's meet and he left. 

That night also she could not sleep properly. She was awake almost all night. Next morning again she woke up got ready and went for a jog. This time she was very very happy. After the jog she sat on the same bench and was thinking of last night when the same little girl came and sat beside her. Then coming close to her the little girl planted a kiss on her cheeks and said: "Keep smiling, tears don't suit you" and pointed towards the mango tree. There he was standing, watching he all through. She came running, hugged him and they left.

Missing You

A day in December it was. I was there with him at someplace and we were talking.  Talking of the time spent together in the City of Joy. It had been 2 years 4 months and 8 days of togetherness and he was leaving. I was on a verge to cry but had controlled myself from crying because I wanted him to be fine. Deep inside our hearts we knew that we were going to miss each other. The moments spent together would linger on our minds through out our life. Not that we forgot our first meet in Dilli, but City of Joy had a different magic. Some even say black magic. We were running out of words and time was running out of our hands. None wanted to depart but we could not do anything about that. I wished I could stop him, but he had to go. He had completed his PG and now had to start working. We were talking nonsense that day. Our faces had smile because we both did not want leave crying. But our hearts were lamenting. Then I came back home with a sad heart, but I knew I was again going to see him at the station. We packed all the eatables that he was supposed to take with him for his journey. This time my sister was going with me to the station. And when you want to reach somewhere early, God has some other plans for you. Not a single cab was ready to drop us at the station. Train was supposed to depart at 5:45pm and it was already 3:30pm. One hour journey to the station, and if traffic attacks then it may take more than an hour and not a single cab. At last after 15 mins of wait we got a cab. But it was obvious God was trying my patience that day. Traffic, traffic and traffic.. Huh! We reached station at 4:45pm and thank God we had one hour to spend together. The last hour together in The City of Joy. I was not happy at all. He was trying stupid jokes to keep my mood up, but no use. I knew that he was leaving and that feeling was breaking me with every passing minute. I was holding tight to him because I never wanted him to leave. It was 5:30 pm and just fifteen more minutes and he will be gone, this time not to come back soon. We loaded his luggage on Chambal Express and were waiting outside the gate of the train. The last moment, his last touch, that feeling was miserable. My eyes were full of tears now as I had been controlling them for long. I hugged him tight and cried. The train whistled and signaled that it was time to let go. He got up and stood near the trains gate. The train started and he waved at me. I waved back in tears. This time I could see tears in his eyes too. I waited there till the train went out of my sight. Then with a heavy heart I left the station, not to forget, with my sister. I wanted him back and if I could control time I would have stopped time there and then, when the train whistled. The miserable feeling still lingers in my heart when I let go his hand. I want to hold your hand once more, want to see you this close again. Come back soon. I miss you. I am waiting for you.But I know we will meet soon because "we meet to depart and we depart to meet".

Live Life and Love It

Take chance, Tell the truth.

Say no, Spend all your money.

Fall in love, Talk to a stranger.

Say I love you, Be mean.

Make fun of yourself, sing out loud.

Laugh at stupid jokes, Cry.

Take revenge, Apologize.

Laugh when you fall, Get into a fight.

Tell someone how much they mean to you.

Tell the idiot, how he/she's hurting you.

Let someone know what they are missing.

Sneak out at 2 in the night.

Abuse someone who deserves it.

Sit alone, watch rain and cry.

Laugh till your stomach hurts.

Get high, Dance like a maniac.

Talk to animals, Post stupid pictures.

Give someone a hug when they need,

And make sure,

You get one when you do.

Watch cartoons, Act like a kid.

Jump up and down.

Live Life and Love It.

STARS

I see stars at midnight,

Wonder what are they doing?

Twinkling all night, shining all night,

Sparkling like diamonds.

I love their little spark,

They do their bit to get us rid of dark..

What do they say?

I guess: we should be like them.

A star in the maddenning crowd,

Do what your heart says.

With twinkle in eyes and shine in smile,

Making the world beautiful and bright.

You need not be the sun,

Who lights up the whole world.

But be a little star,

And light up your loved ones world.

Be like a star,

No matter how far you are.

Yet near, very close,

To a few heart.

Tere Liye

Tumko paya toh khud ko paa liya..

Iss duniya ki bheed se tune mujhe chura liye..

Subah hassen hai tere saath..

Shaam rangeen hai tere saath..

Tune mujhe jeena sikha diya..

Tere saath chalte chalte ae humsafar..

Ye zindagi ka safar suhana lagta hai..

Raaste aasaan lagte hai..

Har manzil ab mastana lagta hai..

Maine tujhmein khud ko hai dekha..

Unn aankhon mein ek jahan hai dekha..

Tune mujhe har khushi di..

Har gham mein mujhe hasi di..

Laakho ki bheed mein tujhe paa liya..

Tune mujhe jeena sikha diya..

I MISSH YOU SHHO MUCH

In those hundred smiles, I miss that smile..

In those thousands of faces, I miss that face..

In millions of words, I miss those three words..

In my world right now, I miss you..

I wish you were with me today..

As you were, on other days..

Without you I could feel the emptiness..

Without you I can only see the darkness..

I miss those hands, I miss that touch..

I miss that embrace, you know I miss that so much..

I miss that love, I miss that care,

I miss everything, I wish you were here..

But I know you'll be back,

And then we will celebrate..

Open the bottle, cut the cake,

Enjoy life, go on a date..

Today I can feel, I am so incomplete

Without you I, cannot even eat.. ;)

Come back soon and hug me tight,

I end this here and wish you Good Night.. ;)

For you my Creators..

A sweet baby girl born in summer, early summer, was a girl in that family after almost 40 years. No other girl was born in those 40 years in that family.. She was the sweet heart of the family and everyone cared a lot for her. You wanna meet her.. Here she is:

She is the princess of her parents and will obviously make them proud. Her father was very very very fond of her. So when ever he used to come back from work he used to sit with her and play with her. He used to click a lot of pictures of his daughter. He loved her dearly from his heart and that love she could see in her dad's eyes. He used to call her Paakhi.. As he says: she grew up to be a beautiful child and very obedient. Never into fights, no cries.. Always bringing smile on everyone's face. Her mother used to care a lot for her a used to call her as ting ting.. So sweet she was. Giving food on time, make her dress well and play with her.. Due to her mother's care she grew up to be like:

Living in a happy family she grew up to be a happy child. And when she was 1 and a half year old her parents gave her the best gift of her life. Kukku: a dear little sweet sis. She became her toy and the best toy ever. She used to play with Kukku all the time. Paakhi and Kukku two little girls. Wanna see them together..??

From here life changed and Paakhi had a responsibility of being the elder one. She loved her little Kukku and never did hurt her. She used to protect her all the time. She did not allow anyone else to touch her. Paakhi and Kukku loved each other a lot. As time passed their mother and father started sending them to school. Their parents always thought that girls should study and they wanted to be proud parents of their princesses. So they started going to school. And they loved it.

Don't they look cute in their school uniform..? Yes they loved going to school and never missed their school. They had thought of making their parents proud so they studied hard. Never secured the first position but never failed to impress their parents. Soon they completed their schooling and made their parents proud. Yes..!! Those were the days from where they never looked back. Always listened to their parents and do as they say. Parents are always correct and even if they are not we should never answer them back because they give us the life and bring us up. They sacrifice everything for us. I love my parents a lot and this blog is dedicated to them.. Love you Maa and Paa..
