Day 6
So, the
Sunday arrived. I woke up quite early again. Also, today, I had to decide
whether I should propose to her or not? With around 2 months spent in dreaming,
today was my last chance to make it a reality. We had been talking quite a lot
in the last few days (as all of you know ;) ) but still you can never be sure
of what’s going on in a girl’s mind. Actually, I wasn’t even sure of my own
mind. Several thoughts surrounded my brain. I had been running away from
commitments always and now, am I ready to commit? What will happen if she
rejects the proposal?(or even if she accepts it?) Is it the right time to
propose her?
Unable to
come to an answer, finally, I took out a coin.
‘If its
heads, then, I’ll propose her’, I thought and flipped the coin. With every turn
that the coin took in the air, I could feel my heartbeat rise. Finally, it came
to rest on the dusty floor of my room. After removing the dust of its surface,
finally I was able to see the’ three lions’. After this, I was even more confused
but still since it was ‘heads’, so decided to give it a try.
The next big
question now was how to propose? The first idea that came to my mind was GOOGLE.
I opened my pc and ‘googled’ different innovative ways of proposals but nothing
seemed to attract my mind. I shut down my pc and started thinking. The thoughts of
different Bollywood movies came to my mind (Hollywood too!) but one can’t
really trust these movies. Can we?
Whole day
passed like this. In the evening as usual I was leaving for the terrace but
today with some changes. With gel replacing the normal oil on my hair, with
decent clothes on and without spectacles (obviously, what if my specs broke before
my heart does? ;) ) . Obviously, I wasn’t looking like Shahid Kapoor but still I was looking decent :) . Just when I was going to leave, my father
stopped me.
Papa : Where are you going?
Me : Nowhere,
just to the terrace.
Papa(bit
excited) : What will you get on the terrace? Lets go shopping. Since its Sunday,
I m free today.
Me(thinking) : How can explain I him that its not ‘what’,
its ‘who’..!
Me(in a
polite manner) : I don’t want anything. Maybe you all can go.
Papa(bit
disappointed) : For the past whole week, you said you need this, you need that. Now,
you are saying you don’t need anything!
Me(thinking) :
arre yar, papa toh senti ho gye, now how
to explain him that I have to propose a girl!
Me(in a persuasive
tone) : don’t worry, I’ll take whatever I want from delhi.
Papa(in
normal tone) : nahi, we will go today.
Me(almost
begging) : arre mujhe kuch ni chahiye, koi
zarurat ni h jaane ki..
There
I was amidst all the popular brands of the world, ‘kms’ away from the girl
which I liked the most. :(
I thought
she might be waiting at the terrace at least I should apologize for not coming.
I took out my cell and typed the message-
Sorry, won’t be able to come, my
family took me for shoppin.. :(
An instant
later, my phone beeped. The message was from Ridhima. It read-
Ohh :( never mind…I’ll alone enjoy my
self thrown farewell party… :)
This message
further increased my disappointment as the word ‘farewell’ hit my heart hard,
really really hard. ‘Maybe I won’t see her now for the next two-three months,
maybe the story has finally ended’, such thoughts circulated my mind.
The shopping
spree ended after two continuous, vigorous and tiring hours. I just can’t
understand how can someone like shopping? Just keep roaming from shops to
shops, keep trying clothes and other things, how can someone like such a lame
and ‘expensive’ activity!!
We were home
by 9. After my family slept, I was glued to my 15 inch pc screen. She was
ONLINE.
‘aaj toh maine akele hi farewell mana li..”,
she said.
I apologized
for not coming and after a while I asked,’ can we meet tomorrow?’
I knew this
was long shot. She had a train to catch at 5, she was leaving her home for
college, then, why would she meet a guy whom she met just 7 days ago. But still I
had hopes until they were shattered by her reply,’ sorry, I don’t think I’ll b
able to come’.
I tried
to push a bit but she was adamant about her decision. And finally, she bid me
farewell and left. :(
Hey…wait, by
left, I meant she logged out of her facebook account. ;)
At 3 am, I typed
a message-
Hey…you’ll be leaving tomorrow….i
wanna meet you once before you leave…waiting for your reply..
“Bhagwan…itni
help ki h..thodi aur kr dena”, I prayed and pressed the send button(not pressed
just touched, I have a touch-phone :D )
