City Of Dreams

On a very depressing and normal monday morning,in mumbai,my destiny surprised me with a gift i had been waiting for.

That day when i walked out of home,i had no thought of falling in love,i thought life was the same old struggle to reach that one day when the clock stops moving and theres nothing but peace,i knew i'd find her,but so soon and so unexpectedly,i had never even thought of.

That day I reached the railway station,it was an early summer morning,the sun was fresh and crisp. It was 7am and i was totally not in a mood to do the upcoming adventure of getting into the train,but well i was earlier than any other day,i guess,God had it planned.

I kept looking around and that is when my eyes reached upon her. She sat on the bench right opposite me,eyes shut tightly,because she didnt sedm to like the bright light,her long wavy hair,appeared like a cascade of brown waters,falling perfectly on her. I was awestruck. Looking at her beauty i knew i stood no chance. But that definately didnt keep me away from her. Ah! and then she opened her eyes,they were glowing too,she had the perfectly light coloured brown eyes,and although it was bright because of the sun,to me it seemed as if her eyes emitted magical lights,that drove me more to her.

She was dressed like any other girl,looked like a twenty three or twenty four year old,wore normal jeans and a tshirt,but her purity and simplicity was all over my mind i dont know what would i do next!

All i knew,i havent felt this before, I was in love.

As my fate would have it,my train arrived,unfortunately,i was late by then,because i missed the one before this,just so that i could keep seeing her.I had to get into this one. And so did I.

But the rest of the day and more precisely the whole week,a part of my mind just kept replaying her images in my head,i wanted to see her more,i wanted to see how she looks when she smiles,i want to see how her eyes glow of glee,i want see her talk,i want to hear her talk.

I guess there was something between me and mondays.

I went each day with the hope to see her,but she appeared only on the next monday.

She looked mesmerising today too. Today i noticed a lady sitting beside her,looked old,more like a helper,but she just sat on the bench with her.

I kept looking at 'her',and today may be even she noticed me.She saw me staring at her,and i saw her expressions change,first she kept looking at the tracks below,and then for a moment looked up. That one second was my moment,i couldnt have asked for more. This was unreal i didnt believe in love at first sight but today i am victim to one of those killer sights!

After a second she looked to her right,she seemed very obviously concious,i could see her mumble to the lady next to her. And the lady simply kept nodding,i wondered what were talking of.

When she turned back,her hair again glowing of the sun,her eyes are like the prettiest sight i could ever have. I wonder what her name is? I wonder , how she is?

Has she noticed me too? ofcourse i have nothing she can fall in love with at first sight? but...is there a mere chance?

She seemed like a far fetched dream to me. But yes i dreamt of her each day after that monday morning,each day,i imagine what it would be like to go and talk to her,how nice it would be,if she smiles looking at me!

I couldnt believe i was so love torn for someone who i absolutely didnt know!
