THE BEACH

We finally arrived at Varkala Beach or the famously know as Papanasam Beach of kerala. It usually takes around 3 hours to reach here. But the trips near lal bagh, the crazy breaks near ice cream parlour's and restaurants, around 4 we were here.

"Myra... wake up..."I nudged her...

"Rubbing her eyes and focusing on our surrounding... what is this...are we here already. I told you to wake me up...I didn't want to miss out all the fun. We could have talked a lot.. you wouldn't have had to complete the journey all alone. What kind of a bike ride would it be, If you had travelled the whole way in utter silence." here she goes, all over again.

Instead of answering all her questions, Rising up...I step out onto the road, placing the centre stand in position,  un-winding the backpacks. Her face still revealing a confused look. I held out my hand, gesturing her to take it and come along. Following my order, she takes my hand in hers, as always we intertwine our hands with one another and begin to walk, leaving foot prints as we moved ahead.

"I wasn't driving alone, you were with me, It doesn't mean you have to talk all the time to make your presence noticed. I know you are with me and that's enough for me to move on. Ok.."

Nodding her head, she rests her face on my shoulders.. walking towards the crystal clear glossy waves we finally sit amidst the sand... few meters away from the wide opened beach. Myra brings her knees close to her chest and begins to swing back and forth, finding it funny I still end up doing her exact same moves. Rocking in perfect unison, while fellow-mates notice the weirdness as they pass our way.

The sun right above us... just a few hours away from setting in, the sky is a complete shade of eye catching orange. That keeps us mouth shut, just gazing through the view, my life feels complete right at this moment.

"So.. we have few more hours for sunset. What would you like to do" I nudge her, to break her trance.

"Open the gifts"... Myra squeaks... I should have kept my mouth shut. In a swift she folds her legs, opens the bag and picks her gift and hands mine to me.

Completely nervous i look into her eyes. "Don't hate me if ..."

"Shhhh .... open it" she orders. "Someone's getting authoritative". I joke

Just do as I say and she slowly begins to removes the tapes, making sure the rapper stays in one piece.

When it comes to opening gifts we both are a look alike. I'm even more careful than her to make sure that nothing tears apart. Once the package is removed, I place it inside the backpack, we look into each other. Our boxes look kind of similar. Yet..

"HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY..."

We say in unison.

The box held close to heart, faces holding in surprises. We finally open it up.

When...

A huge boxing-glove in a fist pump pops straight out and gives one punch on my nose....ouch!!!!!..that hurt...and that's when I look in her direction, her nose all red and her eyes cringed up.

Both of us have chosen a similar gift for each other, pinching her chilly pepperoni nose, I begin to laugh....She joins along .. that was seriously unexpected both of us choosing a similar gift is.......

( fill in your own words)

All mattered to me, right at that moment was to see her laugh her eyes out. There's also a note placed inside the box. Both of us take it out and read ....

I'M YOUR GIFT!!! What else did you expect?.

Tears starts flowing down from her eyes, immediately placing the gift on top of the bag I tug her beneath my arm and slow sobs begin to break down. A few moments passed by in utter silence. Words weren't exchanged but... a million thoughts were.

.........

The crimson red flaming sky dissolving into a solvent solution of pure Nacl solution is a marvel to visualise, in other terms the Sun slowly subsided down, getting low for a dip in the clear blue water

The crimson red flaming sky dissolving into a solvent solution of pure Nacl solution is a marvel to visualise, in other terms the Sun slowly subsided down, getting low for a dip in the clear blue water...spreading its last rays of sunlight for the day, on us. Both of us walk towards the shore as the rising waves gently calmed down as it reared to us indicating no matter how hard or critical and high the problem that we face is, it will all end soon. As the wave kept coming back it reminds us that a moment can pass by, but it will reappear eventually promising an even better tomorrow.

We decide a bit of music would be a perfect ending.

( All taylor swifts fan... This is for you guys)

Ocean blue eyes,

 looking in mine.

I feel like I might,

sink and drown and die.

You're so gorgeous
I can't say anything to your face
'Cause look at your face
And I'm so furious
At you for making me feel this way
But what can I say?
You're gorgeous

You make me so happy it turns back to sad, yeah
There's nothing I hate more than what I can't have
You are so gorgeous it makes me so mad

Dancing around like unleashed monkeys, we are imperfectly flawless. Trying to imitate TS " The legend " dory looks like a broken leg puppy, squinting around. Though she failed at imitating TS, She succeeded in being her goofy little self, Who I love the most.
