Universe is Watching



What would be your dying wish?
I wish to see her smile once again.

Is that all ?
Yes my lord

Amen.
And I saw her smile; the most amazing and the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

Anything else?
I wish to see her 10 years back on that rainy day. You know when.

And?
I wish to live that moment once more?

Time cannot be reversed. Yet, I could do it.
Amen.





It was raining. She was waiting for her regular taxi pickup. May because of the traffic, he was not there.
I walked towards her.


10 years back.


My heart was racing. I was all wet. I forgot to take my umbrella from my bag.
She saw me and waved. I responded with an odd smile.
Can you share your umbrella? I asked.
Sure. She was all happy. Before she finished.
I added a "forever".
She might have been expecting this because of my odd behaviour for past couple of months.
She smiled.




I was walking towards her.
I was all wet. I forgot to take my umbrella from my bag.
She saw me and waved. I responded with an odd smile.
You are all wet, come and I got some room for you. She said.
I stopped for a second. And politely refused her. I took the umbrella from my bag and unfolded it.

I walked on.




Is that why you wanted to reverse the time?
I smiled.




PS: Trying a new narration style. Hope it didn't suck that much!

Gone!


There is a time when you realize that everything that you lived for was just within your reach. And you just didn't realize it.

A more disturbing fact is knowing about it later. Way later in life, from the point of no return.

And the only thing that comes out is this tiny tear drop which you tried so hard not to let out.
Damn it!
