Ahh chooo!!....ahhchi....
Oh this cold! It’s been a week
since my ‘debacle’ and now this. It is quite amazing how I get cold with every
weather change. Though I am myself to blame but who doesn’t want to have some
ice-cream and chilled coke? At least I can’t control my appetite. It’s like it(food)
seduces me to the point that I can’t control myself and finally give in. (Yes
you can laugh now!)
But still the cold was least of
my concerns for I am more inclined to her rather than myself. Ha ha...hilarious!
But seriously I am not well. In addition to the cold, I was feeling weak, fever
is playing hide and seek and maybe many more is running in background.
This was not enough for the
almighty. The Half-yearly exam is scheduled in 2 weeks. Wow God; round of applause
for you....Clap clap!
Who will teach me now,huh?
Seriously I should have proposed to her after the exams. But then my
theory:”Exams will come and go but the girl won’t be there for you. So cash
in!” I did so...and look where it got
me. Can’t we rollback? But then it is already auto-committed. Ha!
It’s not that I didn’t try to
talk to her-to pacify her; to tell her that what I told her was from the core
of my heart. But then how to bell the cat without being mauled? It’s been weeks
since we talked now. We both were avoiding each other. She now sits besides the
driver leaving me to stare the road behind. In school though there were moments
when we came face to face, and just when I had gathered some courage to
initiate the talk, some random girl would call her and she would go in a jiffy.
You, yes you random girl-curse you!
Back home my mom is quite worried
of my health. Seems like the fever has made a record in itself. Though the
Doctor has given medicines but still there’s no sign of improvement. I had been
shown to two doctors now; first one declared it as malaria. Wow! But my dad was
not convinced so he went for some tests and visited doctor number two. He
declared that I maybe suffering from typhoid. Further tests confirmed it. Thank
god dad was not convinced otherwise I would have been diagnosed with wrong
disease. Seems like my beloved ‘Gol gappa’ is the “culprit” since that’s the
only outside food I had for a while.
I think God is multitasking in
giving me the pains- Anu, exams and now typhoid; and he is seemingly enjoying
it. 2 weeks has already passed since I got the fever and it’s getting no
better. It takes nearly a month for the typhoid fever to subside so my
half-yearly exams are gone. It is quite boring in the house. Not that I don’t
like my place but I am surely missing school more so her. It’s like a drug
addict has been denied his regular course of drugs. Oh! I want to go to school
and to just look at her the whole day.
Mom: “Here’s dinner”
Me: “Ma, I don’t feel like
eating. Can’t I skip the meal?”
Mom: “No beta, you have to,
otherwise how you will get better?
Mom: “And another thing; your
friend Abhishek called, was asking about you. He told that he’ll visit you after
the exams.”
Me: “ok”
Finally someone who cares! You
can have many friends (mathematically speaking: n number of friends....ha!).
They will be all over you-laughing, partying together like an integrated
network. But only those ones are really friends who care for you in your bad
times. Don’t you care for me Anu? Doesn’t my absence concern you? For me it
does though...
Half-yearly just ended and I am
getting better too. According to doctor I need to take 2 weeks rest in order to
fully recover from the illness. I can’t wait. But I have to, for I don’t want
to fall ill again, not after what I had gone through for the past 3 weeks. Imagine
opening books after a long time....yup me to...ha! I tried to study but the
mood was not building. Somehow something was missing. Anyways who cares? I
tossed my books and plugged in my headphones ready to delve to somewhere else
away from reality. I thought about what I should do when I go to school. Shall
I try again or just simply apologise to
her? She never said no though...but then she never said anything positive
too...oh I forgot-she doesn’t talk to me now....hmmm. Maybe Abhishek is right.
Maybe I should forget about what happened. Could you give me a walkthrough
please?
“Everything that I want
I want from you
But I just can't have you
Everything that I need
I need from you
But I just can't have you”
Green Day-you too? When something bad happens everything starts
feeling bad. It happens like a chain reaction. You trigger one and the rest
will follow. Such is my case.
“What are you listening”
Me :”Nothing...just listening to some new Green Day songs.”
I didn’t even see to whom I was
talking to, but definitely it was not my mother. Wait a minute....this
voice....what the hell is going on...i turned my head to be sure and yes! God!
Shocking it is....it is Anu. What is she doing here? No no it can’t be. But I
may have an answer.
“Are you Death?”
Maybe death has come to take me away but before
that decided to gift me the one that I desire the most....seriously it happens
to all of us...just fall in love once...you will surely get these unwanted,
superfluous thoughts. Ha ha what am I thinking?
Slap...and it echoes...slap slap
slap slap(bollywood style)
Ok this is surely Anu....I can
feel her touch...a quite painful one though, but still it’s better to have
something. I so miss her tender touch; like when her hand brushed over mine
while we studied together.
Anu: “Intolerable, like always....uhh...I told you na Abhishek...now see it
with your own eyes.”
Oh! I see Abhishek now...he was
standing just by my side and I just didn’t see him. Wow! And he’s
laughing...why wouldn’t he? I mean “death”-seriously? Now I have showed my
level of stupidity. Common Abhi do something...
What could he possibly have done?
Anyways I just heard from him that it was her who wanted to meet me. Considering
that I had been suffering from typhoid; she was quite concerned of me, hence
she asked Abhi to call me.
She’s so that into me....I should
definitely do something. Question is what would be most appropriate one? I have
already been slapped once.....though another one is still ok as long I can be
with her.
Anu: “Are you going to tell
something?”
What is wrong with her? Just some
weeks before she didn’t want to talk to me. What just happened here all of a
sudden? Anyways who cares? When a girl is concerned for you, she definitely
feels for you.....ummm...this is my queue I think.
I ignored Abhishek once gain
though I had no intension to do so. Offo, locha hai ulfat ho gaya...
We talked about how their exams
went, what should I do to cope up with the gap in studies. It was pretty clear
that she was not at all interested. So I finally decided to say it.
Me: What do you want me to say?
Anu: How do I know? U tell what do you want to say?
Me: Ok then....are you still angry with me?
Anu: Seriously...now after all this you are asking me if I am angry with you
? Really ? Dumbass; you can’t even initiate a conversation properly.
Me: How do I know of what you are thinking? When I tried to talk, you just
ignore me completely and now you are saying as if you don’t know anything. Did
I not express my feelings to you that day? Was it not enough for you? Tell me
now for now i cannot carry it anymore....
Anu gave her priceless smile for some
time....something to die for...really and then she said it...
”oh my lover boy, I heard each and every word of what you said that
day. I just wanted to see if you were really true about your feelings?”
Seriously ? She was testing me?
Do I seem like a slave to her....apparently I am now.....literally....of her
love.
At this moment I was staring
blankly at her, helpless of what to do next. Did she really accept my love? Does
she feel the same for me now?
Watching me stare at her, she
smiled again and then imprinted my cheek with her rosy lips....awesome...I am
not washing that cheek for now. Abhishek as it now seems knew it all from day
one(damn demon was conspirating with her).thik hai chalo maaf kiya...
Both of them started to leave now for it was
quite late. I with my new found happiness hugged her dear and got a even bigger
response from her.
Anu:”Are we even going to a date or something?”
Me: Oh...yeah...Surely...anytime.
Anu: Love you....bye.....
It’s quite astonishing as to how things change
in a flash. Isn’t it? Is it God’s way of showing sympathy to troubled beings?
He he...quite hilarious. Shall I thank you God? But what about the bad luck you
gave me huh?Just kidding...for all reasons...thankyou...
Zindagi tumhari leti bhi hai aur
mauka mile to kuch accha de bhi jaati hai.....
I think I will now have a fast
recovery for I have found out the motivation to do so.
Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gayi
Kismat Pe Aaye Na Yakeen
Be positive , love life and most importantly keep calm....
