Next day:
in the noise, gossip,and lull of her office,Anna kept reading
n re-reading the 'lv' message.the proposal that never
could come true.she was lapping it all up, this untrue
affection,this pretending game.being an inhabitant
of a country of hot climate,she knew the value of rain,
of however short-duration.and she had experienced
drought only.and she laughed, a happy laugh,
whenever she went over the portion of 'I ws in luv wid u'.......
could anybody really bring the stars from the skies for
the lover when he himself was the star?did he dare
oppose the whole world for the one who loved him
n had given up her world in longing for him?
Next day:
the whole city was warming up to the coming Deepavali.
Kaali the Mother Goddess destroys darkness and brings in
the light, the victory of Goodness over Evil.Grand idols of the
dangerously appealing,dusky Mother was waiting in the artisans'
workshop.waiting to be worshipped with chanting,songs, frenzy,
crackers n mad drinking.but what of the Evil that inhabited her mind?
the painful evil of longing for a thing which was another's already?
as Anna watched happy lovers roaming the streets she gripped her
lonely hands tightly with each other.
in the morning.......
Armaan:Wishing u A
"HAPPY DIWALI"
i know ye jaldi he
par kya kare bahot
sare sweet young
dashing smart
friends ko wish
karna hai
Socha pehle
BUZURGO ko nipta
dun(winking smiley)
Anna was annoyed at this reference to himself
being the younger one.the same naughtily taunting nature!
to have fun at others' expense!
deep at night,when Anna was making love with her
own emptiness, a message came......
Armaan:Two gems of lyf:
1."Liv life 2 express...
n not to impress..."
2."Dn't strive to
make ur presence
noticed,jst make ur
absence felt(smiling smiley)GUD
NITE, SWEET
DREAMS....
Next day:
silence.
Next day:
silence.
Next day:
in the afternoon,....after a long wait...message came.
a joint message.message of a couple,representing a
law firm.wishing her n her family A VERY HAPPY DIWALI!
Anna pondered over sending a message.then she deleted the
message n went to bed.did not sleep.
