Curiosity - 55 Fiction

She always sat at the same spot and he could only glimpse her pair of rainbow colored sandals.

His curiosity had been piquing, he got up and strode towards her, all eyes upon those legs.  He fell across the stool onto the floor on all fours with a bang. He looked up, she was gone.

I knew it was my last day there

When did I grow up?
 Why only I have to leave?
Is it the end
Or a new beginning?

What kind of a love is this?
 that needs me to leave
My old Loves behind..
 But do I have to?

As I walk down the steps
 I am hesitant
Now that the day has come
 I don't want to!

As I look back at him
 Blurry eyed
Can see him smiling
 With tears in his eyes.

As he walked towards me
 Hugged me, Blessed me
Whispered in my ears "Be happy, Always"
 I knew it was my last day there

By the time Diya looked up from her desk all she could see were empty cubicles.  Looking at the parking area from her 6th floor window a sense of foreboding came upon her.

She quickly took her purse and started towards the lift. As the elevator landed she ran towards her car, banged the door shut, was about to start the engine when she heard a banging at the window.  

She hesitated but speeded away.

As the man stood holding her purse he was sad but not bewildered to see such paranoid reaction from women every once in a while.

Zindagi

Haan Zindagi tho kat jaaegi
 Kuch haste, kuch rotein
Lekin jeena tho usko kehte hain
 Jo har pal jiyein

Kabhi dekha hai aasmaan mein udte parindo ko
 kabhi socha hai kaise lagta hoga
Pankh phailan kar khule aasmaan mein udna
 Dhalte hue Suraj ki roshni mein kho jaana

Pehli baarish ki boondon ka
 Mitti mein mil jaana
Unki dheemi dheemi khusbhu
 Mein kho jaana

Phoolon ka malmal
 Chehre par sahlana..
Haan issi ko tho
  Kehte hai Jeena mere dost!

Touch 01.

If I could have anyone I choose as my 'forever friend'/ 'life partner' , I would choose...

My husband. Yes, to whom I have been married for six years now. And have known him for more than eight years and maybe more because I feel like I have known him forever. Yes, how could I have not known him!? He is like my twin soul. We are alike in so many ways but very different at the same time.

Yes we compliment each other. Wherever I am weak he is strong and vice versa.

He lets me know in very firm words if my head is floating very high up in the clouds and helps me in keeping my feet firmly on the ground. At the same time he himself will be the first one to let me know if I deserve to be in the clouds for sometime...:)

He helps me in his own little ways. Encourages me to achieve more. Guides me out of the jungle of Life when I am lost in the woods of sorrow. Helps me in seeing the light through the hazy shadows of lies and deceit. And the most important thing "I can just be just myself".

He is not perfect but neither am I. But can you imagine how boring life would be if we all were perfect?

I love him for all that he is and not. And wouldn't change this relationship for anything else in the world.
