Once again we met....

Just something here out of my journal,this is how life in reality is and not the thing which we see in movies and dream all day about....jus temme if you guyz liked it.....



"Thinking of you every moment, with lots of love to my fiancee.."

I shuffled through the many cards at the Archies gallery,City center, to send a token of love for his bouquets of love daily,and what better than a card that says it all, and Archies surely knows what you want to speak.........

Would he like this one,naah the other one is better ,this ones good,he'll love it.I turned every card there to given to a fiancee and as i put them back restlessly at their place, i saw him.........

It took me a second to actually feel that he was standing right in front of me, looking for deos.Just hope he didn't see me.Gawd i cant face him again,not those eyes at least.Do i stand here and fumble at the cards or buy and leave as soon as possible...Naah, i think he's finished, he would be at the counter any moment.......

I carelessly took an other card,"To my fiancee..."as i looked at him. He looked as handsome as ever as he stood there waiting for the bill and slowly the past started reeling in front of my eyes as though yesterday,those college days,those nights which i spent thinking about him.......

Did he just look at me,ya he did.He's coming here, i better move away and as i pretended to read the cards i heard..

"Hey Priya,how are you,after a very long time"

"Ya ....huh....umm..How are you"

Why do i have that gazed look on my face now...

"God, you have changed a lot, you looked a lot different in college"

Why is that my heartbeat was going faster....Just if he didn't look into my eyes......

"Wow!!! good news then what does he do", he said as he looked at the cards in my hand.

"He's in US and what about you"

"Hey can we go in for a coffee, long time we met huh!!"

Why couldn't i say that i gotta go, why do i have to go dumb as always whenever i see him.He took my silence as yes as we moved to Barista on the third floor......The coffee shop was full as always but we found a cosy table in the corner for two.

"Coffee...Ya two cappachino please"

I looked at him again as he ordered.why didn't he ever understand my feelings, couldn't he see it in my eyes and why couldn't he understand my silence..

"So, what are you doing lately, US and all rich life then huh?"

I came back to my senses, was he just my imagination.........

"Ya we got engaged three months back,getting married in December."

"Great!!!all set then"

"What about you..."

"I have got a job in Mumbai, work keeps me moving from one city to other.."

I was about to ask if he got married as the coffee arrived...naah....do i care anymore, so i went..

"So didn't see much of you after college..those days were so much fun"

"Ya i miss them too.."

As he started ranting about our college days i started wondering, why couldn't i ever tell him, would we have been together now if i had done, did he ever have those feeling which i had for him.....and do i still feel for him.....huh..

"Priya, where are you, i just asked hows Netan.You know i always thought that you guys had something going on....gawd those days were blissful..."

And he went again talking all about his work and work and more work....why am i feeling guilty, am engaged, iam not supposed to think of him anymore....Could there still be any chance of us being together,does he feel for me in any way...Do i have the right to hope......Do i ask him now........

"There we go, coffee's finished and time to leave too...Nice meeting you Priya....naah i pay..."

I need to tell him atleast now, i looked at him as he removed his wallet to pay and suddenly my eyes met a pic in it....Gawd she was gorgeous...

"Girlfriend..huh?"

"Naah, my love..my wife..."

I gave a feverish smile more to myself than to him.This is life and we move on with it i said to myself as we moved out of Barista, we exchanged numbers and happy take cares as we took the opposite paths....

I smiled as i saw him go, and somewhere laughed at my self for thinking silly,was it to hide the pain for it did hurt somewhere.....I moved into Archies again and this time to send him a card heartfelt and not something randomly picked...

"My life has changed the day you step in, and for all those wonderful days and nights that we are going to spend together...With lots of love to my sweetheart, my fiancee..."

Life moves on....................
