The warmthness of my bed reminded me of my missing things in life.The stars that shined through my window was a perfect picturesque. The balcony of my room and its night view reminded me of many chapters of novels that I passed through. The taste of coffee reminded me of my mom.The continuous horns of vehicles in that metropolitan city murmured about my idle ness. The two old couples whom I watch every night taught me what love and life are and I realised something is missing in my life.I went to sleep,scratching my mind with some dreams.My phone rang at midnight.I wonder,who that will be.
"Russy " It was Liana who was in panic.
"What happened Liana?" I asked.
"A patient needs treatment. He is in emergency. Senior doctors are out of area.Come fast" she said in one breath.
I went to take off my night suits and rushed to Keck hospital, California, where I had took in charge as a neurologist for 3 years.I rode fast recklessly.
"Liana" I saw her waiting in front door.
She pointed the way where the patient is admitted.He met with a sudden accident and needs a surgery.I made my way to operation theatre with jar full of confidence.
"What happened?" Liana inquired when I returned from the operation theatre.
"Everything went fine" I said and saw his friends awaiting for him.
I rushed to my cabin and searched for his details like a teenage boy do for a girl.I discovered his name as 'Louis wan',who is an interior designer and an orphan.My mind wore a sympathy.Usually, I will not stay in hospital after working hours.But,my mind unconsciously felt delighted to stay here.I slept in cabin itself and frequently went to check his medical condition.
"Louis" I called him gently in the morning.
There was no sign of opening his eyes.perhaps, waiting for my another word.
" Louis " I again called him.
His eye balls started to move from side to side and gently opened his eyes.The word he pronounced made me startled.
"Russy kem" he said.
How did he knew my name? My whole body scratching to know this.
"How do you know my name?" I asked in astonishment.
"Shall I tell you later?I am feeling so hungry." He said like a kid.
I arranged the food and let him to eat.All I thinking was how he knew me?
Days passed.Nights replaced.Summer went and winter came..He got out of from the hospital bed.But,my question remained unanswered.
I found out his details and his contact number from the hospital file.I dared to call him.
"Hello russy kem" he pronounced my full name again.
But how did he knew that I am calling him right now?Anyhow,I cleared my thoughts and let my words slip.
"Louis ,shall we meet today!" I asked.
He accepted and messsged me the place.It was golden gate bridge.The night view was more than what you call awesome.My eyes searched for him.My earrings whispered secrets.My full gown reminded me of him in the suit.
"Russy kem" someone called me.
I turned behind.It was he.
"Well,you wanna know how I know you,right?" He said.
I nodded my head like a little kid wishing for dolls.But my mind got jealous because of his handsomeness.
"Daily night you was a spectator of the good old couples,right?Thinking about their love.I am their grandson,Louis wan" he said and stretched his hand to touch mine's.
"But,I didn't saw you there?" I interrupted him with an air of amazement.
"I am working as an interior designer in France.I came here for just a trip" he said and continued "then,one night I saw you in your balcony,drinking coffee at night,humming some tunes and I thought for the whole second to myself 'she is something interesting'" he said and took a deep breath.
Oh my lord! This handsome guy was stalking me..For a fraction of second,I felt proud.
"Then I asked about you to them and got more details than I needed.But,how poor boy I am!I didn't mustered up the courage to talk with you till this day..Yet..."
I cut off him and said- "yet fate made us to meet"
I thought to propose him like that happen in fairy tales.But,our eyes exchanged those magical words,where our lips failed to.In the mid of night with the moon as our spectator,we done the second most thing that our lips can and exchanged some smiles.I realised that I touched my biggest dream to lie on your right....#Anjana.....
