He sighed as he examined the cellphone that lay on his lap. He had been able to play so many songs on it once. Once upon a time, when she was there for him. Then, the sky was blue, life was alive, everything around had been more lively …
Now, he was alone. She was gone, taking half of him. Absently, he began typing messages without even realising that she is gone..
He sat on his window in the frosty night. It was cold, so cold that the bones could also feel that icy wind. For a while, he looked at stars and closed his eyes just to visit some of memories..
It was a bright sunny day, when she agreed to meet. He was super excited and happy from inside. And why shouldn’t he be. He was about to see his princess. Though, as an idiot he knew nothing about her likes. The only thing which came in his head was chocolates. He went to shop and looked around for the best chocolates. He was so much into her thoughts, that all he could see was her eyes. Those eyes, which made him smile. He picked every single type of chocolates for her. Yes, he wanted best of everything. He wanted everything for her.
Like a little child, he was jumping around. Like a super excited kid who has just walked few steps for first time without falling. He was giggling, he was laughing, he was smiling. Everyone around him could see his happiness.
He reached at her work. And she doesn’t hear him come in. She was too absorbed in her work, too caught up in her own world. Finally, she turned around and heard he has come. She saw him standing there, watching her. Two bright spots of colour appear in her cheeks and she turns her gaze to the floor.
She smiled, she was shy, she was blushing. She walked towards him and he moved towards her. He touched her palms and hugged her tight. He never wanted to come out of that moment but it was work place. There were too many people around.
Finally they both drove off to find a place near canal. It was serene, calm and peaceful. There was nothing around. They both sat in car. He gave her the chocolates and asked her to try. She was a princess. And so was her aura. That sunny day was sunny and bright probably because of her. Even god wanted them to live in that moment. She was trying chocolates. Like a true princess, she was just tasting a bit, ate what she liked and threw what she didn’t like. And he like an innocent child, was watching….
He was watching, how innocently his princess is tasting those chocolates one by one… Her eyelashes were thick and her curly hair was again on her face. She was hiding her excitement. One by one she was picking, tasting and throwing those chocolates…
And he was happy to watch her. He was happy to see that atleast she liked one or two chocolates among so many. He was happy to see her smile. He was smiling in her presence. He was alive in her company. He was far away from all his pain and trouble … she was like a rain who made him wet. Her presence was like a homeless found home.. He was alive that day..
He felt numbness in his fingers and he smiled yet again. Now he was sitting on his window and that frosty wind has made his fingers numb. He is still breathing. But guess he has not lived from past sometime… He still walks strong. He still talks. He still have memories. He still remember those blue eyes and curly hair.
