The Dreamy World

The author of my memories

'Not until we talk'

His voice startled her,just like it used to.

A man in his late twenties stood before her.The man who left her with only memories,the sad one's being the most.

His disheveled hair still remained her favorite.

Though he was not a man of charms,his mere look sent shivers through her spine,always.

'Don't give him that hint stating you still adore him.Get a grip Sahana',her mind warned.

He looked at her wanting to hear her speak.

'Why are you here',she blurted when her voice found it's way through her jammed throat.

Her mind interrupted her again.

'Common Sahana.That's so stupid of you.He may be here for some other work and not....'

'Only for you'

She heard his voice.

'Was that my mind voice?'

'Excuse me.What did you just say?',she questioned him to make things clear.

'I said that I came here only for you',he replied.

'Enough said for making you fall for him again',her heart peeped.

'No not at all.Do you even understand this situation',her mind intruded.

'See,I have nothing to talk to you.Everything is settled out',she spoke looking at his eyes.

She made up her mind to stand by the long made decision ignoring his apologetic looks.

'See I understand the situation but I'm here only for you.I have decided to be with you now and forever',he spoke in a serious tone.

'Wasn't that the words I wanted to hear from him?',she thought.

'No not at this time',her mind told.

'You left your bride?',she asked shockingly.

After a moment of hesitation,he replied.

'Yes I left her.I'll do anything for you.Understand me at least now'

'Why is that you always take wrong decisions?At first,you chose her over me and now you left her and choose me.What do you think women are? Bouncing balls to get back to you no matter how hard you throw?'

Her high pitched voice grabbed the crowd's attention.

'See let's go somewhere and sort this out.This isn't the right place'

'I'm not coming anywhere with you.Go back to her and if she accepts,be with her.And for the matter of fact,I'm done with you.Don't ever come and show your face in front of me .If you do,you would be in serious trouble and I mean it'

And she walked away leaving her heart behind.

Heart which once belonged to the author of her memories who was still standing where she left him.

Rewinding down her memory lane,she started playing the scene where they first met in her mind.

A bright pair of eyes made her see him the second time though the place was crowded.

Sahana instantly knew there was something different happening to her.A tingling feeling that she had never experienced before.

She felt the heaviness of her body when he caught her looking at him.

But still her eyes didn't move anywhere else and Sahana stood staring at him.

He moved closer and closer.

Her body stopped obeying her commands and she stood without moving.

He passed by her side and went to speak with a person who stood behind her.

Confused by the happenings,she turned to look at him and found him smirking at her.

How embarrassing!!!

She turned and left the place just like she did now.The only difference is that she smiled at that time.

Not able to control her tears,she cancelled the trip arrangements she had made for the weekend and went to her room,the place where nobody can see or stop her from crying out loud.

'This is the best time to take a decision.I can't shut myself and my dreams in this room forever',Madhuri thought.

'Maybe I'll go to a place where nobody can find me.A place where I can make my dreams come true'

Madhuri had this crazy thought in her mind on how thrilling it will be if she elopes from her usual life to some new place.

She wanted to live life in the way it comes without planning anything.

She opened her laptop and check where the next train after midnight is destinated to and booked a ticket.

'Lots to pack Madhuri....Double up',she said to herself.

The sound of her ringing phone echoed in the silent room.

Sahana woke up to see her mom calling.

'Hi ma'

'Ya I'm fine.Haan I was asleep and that's why didn't pick the call'

'Ok I'll call later.Have to go and freshen up'

7.30 am

'Have I slept for 14hrs.Too long in a new place'

The last thought she had the previous night popped up in her mind.

People usually say the person one thinks about at the start and end of a day is the reason for one's sorrow or happiness.

A tear slipped of her eyes conveying that he was the reason for both her happiness and sorrow.

As much as he made her laugh,his thoughts made her cry.

That is when she realized that it is true that people say it is tough to get out of a relationship.

'No.I'm not like others.I'm not gonna mourn about the past'

'Well you said it a hundred times before.But still you are the same',her heart sobbed.

'Not this time.I'm gonna face the future and glow as bright as the sun',Sahana said to herself.

'Ma'am ticket please'

'Ma'am ticket...'

'Oh ya..Here it is'

'Thanks',said the ticket collector giving my ticket back.

Madhuri was nervous.Her trembling fingers and breath pattern would prove it.

Passersby looked at her for a second.Some people even stared at her when she rolled her eyeballs like a thief.

As each station passed by,her fear multiplied.

'Did I take a wrong decision?'

'What am I gonna do there all alone?'

'Such a fool to decide something without any plan.You are mad',her mind scolded.

'Ya I'm mad.Mad about something I like the most.Mad to live my life on my own'

'I'll surely figure out what to do when I reach there.I started this and I'm not gonna end till I taste victory.Mumbai here I come',smiled Madhuri.
