One Rainy Evening

In a mysterious and almost magical turn of events Dhruv meets Ananya after ten long years, on a fine rainy evening stuck in a clogged traffic Jam on Carter Road. He rubs his eyes in disbelief but there she was, in a beautiful floor-length lavender kurta. Drenched in rain, she smiled at him in the most heavenly manner unleashing the storm of memories he had hidden safely in the depths of his heart. He takes her home and they reminisce their times together over a cup of hot coffee that was their true companion over all those years. The Mumbai rains, Ananya and the same old coffee, brought back the electric tension which drew them closer until finally he was thrown back to life by a shrilling honking of horns. And he found himself still sitting in the car with a trail of never-ending cars behind him. Ananya was just a happy hallucination, he drowned himself into ever since he lost her 7 years ago. At the very moment his phone rings, reminding him of his memories of the past.
