The wind was soothing and comforting..I was lost in my own thoughts! Sitting in the back seat of the car, alone and with a soft track in my play list, I was enjoying the breeze and my own world of a certain happiness.. unaware about the busy roads and people, I kept on looking at the cloudy sky and also the stars fighting to retain their position..
I was waiting for mom and dad to come back from whatever work they went for! But my thoughts did not let me bore..
After a while, the wait became too much for me to bear..yet no way to escape!
With nothing much left to do, I finally decided to take a look around myself, at all those busy faces..
Bored with the boring people around, I saw my parents coming and got some relief..
Suddenly I thought of taking a look around once again and I
looked back.. a bike stopped near the car and a guy in a black suit got down from it.. the guy was handsome! .. I looked away as an usual
habit.. But something was different! I felt an urge to look back.. and to my
utter revelation, I saw him looking at me as well.. though, it was nothing to
be shocked, yet I was shocked..
He looked amazing in his suit.. his eyes had a charm
Eye contact with an unknown guy was not a big deal.. but Eye-contact
with an “Unknown” guy and a known Feeling was disquieting..
He looked into my eyes and caught hold of me,through them.. I ogled at him as if I knew him.. we shared an
instant connection.. everytime we see a movie or a daily soap, we find a sudden
wind blowing and music playing around whenever there is an eye contact between
the leads or any “love” scene.. It always seemed funny to me.. reality is harsh
and even after hundreds of eye contacts we hear no sound track playing inside
our heart or around! But startling things do happen sometimes.. gazing into his
eyes, I felt the wind blowing stronger and it was more comforting.. even though
I had already stopped the music player of my phone, I felt a soothing sound
from within..a different sound! There was an unidentified attraction between
us.. even those few seconds appeared like a decade.. the look in his eyes told
a thousand words, as if he knew me.. the feeling was no different in
me!
I heard the front door open and got back to my senses..Reality!
mom and dad were back..
Even then I did not realise what really happened but a
sudden feeling forced me to look back..and guess what? I found him looking at
me as well..as if he wanted to stop me.. wish I could…
I had no idea what he thought or how he felt, but I wish I could
stop that time.. it was not about looks or a fatal attraction, it was something
unique, something never felt before..
The last second I looked into his eyes and my heart skipped
a beat..the car started to move..and speeded away!!
It’s not about a love story with a sad or happy ending! It is
about the feelings.. sometimes we don’t realise what is going on with us.. we
do get surprises sometimes..
I see hundreds or thousands of known and unknown people
around me everyday but never did I feel such an attachment.. wish I could see
him 1 more time.. just to know what he thought,just to know what he felt, just
to know if it was the same as me.. I wish I could see him again.. but this is
life.. we come across many people in life ..few of them stay with us,many of
them leave and very few leave us with a thought.. I don’t know him, I don’t
know his name or anything else.. even his image seems blurred now.. but I am
left with a thought.. why?? It was not an usual thing.. we really don’t
feel this way even when we cross our “crush”.. the “moment” is a past now.. but sometimes we
forget even the spectacular happennings of our life.. for me it was one of them
and I know I will forget it, may be by tomorrow.. but we do need to keep a “note”
of few things we don’t wanna forget!
But....wish I could see him one more time..
