1096 days, counted in memories- both happy and the sad ones.
People can't figure out the number of days they passed, as being happy or sad. It is just decided by the intense of the emotion you felt. If your happiness made more impact, like you found your dear one was alive after many years at a random place, the ground under your feet would disappear, forcing you to fall down, tears running down the eyes, heart skipping every beat and you think it is a dream, though every inch is very much alive. The sad times are heart wrenching, like you wished you were dreaming or dead enough not to feel the pain, but awake and active to feel that pain in each cell and the atom of your body. This is how you know if your memories have more happiness or sadness.
Well, here, it is complicated - the new relationship module, over 1096 days. After it crossed 1096 days, they identified the complicate nature in the relationship. The he and the she, never wanted to believe it, since fear of the breakup pain was too scary.
Anyway, you are here to read about the 1096 days short and crisp story, wondering how did the perfect fairy tale went wrong. Well it has to go wrong at one point, otherwise it isn't life, it will be a scripted story. For starters, they met on the same day, before 1096 days, and one of them can't forget the day because it was not the usual day. The she of this story is just modern by words not by her thoughts, she remained old fashioned in love. The materialistic affection did not affect her much, she asked for a more expensive gift, his love. It was too expensive that she ended paying herself as the price. Foolish girl, did not understand the reality and remained in the fairy tale stories.
She went to the place where they met first, knowing it is one stupid decision to do on a time like this- the worst phase of the relationship. Somehow, courage and the lingering love kicked inside her, pushed her to just go to that place. It was crowded today, flocks of people standing here and there, waiting in a long queue to see Lord Ganesha. Obviously, their first meeting happened in front of her god, Ganesha, the one she believed at all times and loved all times. She scanned to see a vacant spot to sit. She sat near the strong sturdy pillar, the surrounding noise faded, her inner silence became so loud, it flooded with his face and expressions. This how every love story is written, the smile, and the desire attracts the partner and they think, it will be the wonderful life ever after. She did not control her thoughts and let it out like the water through the dam.
The day, she stepped out of the car, after scanning him from head to toe, his height was the most handsome feature in his entire physique. She strolled, towards the temple and climbed the steps one by one. As she passed one step to another, he looked at her feet and found no anklets tingling between her saree fleet. She approached the shrine, closed her eyes, hands wrapped in the worshipping form and prayed, "Pillayar appa, if he is the one for me, let this proceed, otherwise, make it stop, hurting no soul present here". As simple as it is, her prayers were. She went ahead, took the viputhi and placed it in a small streak on her forehead and turned to look at the elders, greeted every single one in the most respect way. When she turned to greet him, she gave a smile and said a hi in a very soft voice. The eyes never lied to her, he was interested in her, happy to see her, desired to talk to her and wanted to love her till eternity. The moment was so special that, she can't understand what made this guy to choose me and come all the way to meet me. If he attempted to come and meet me, he is ready to make me as his life. Her heart thumped at the thought of an unexpected stranger giving his life to her. That was the love she wanted, and she thought the lord is showing a green signal. They shared a tiny intro, but her belief was strong enough to decide that, he will take care of her and never make her anything less. At least, his sister would ensure that, because that is where her trust laid, and also went wrong later, thus the fairy-tale made its first mistake in the story line.
It is odd sometimes when we find everything is going in the right way and we believe we have the perfect life. It leads to a strong desire of having it all the time, you give in more, sacrifice more, the fear in losing it turns you to be a slave. You might think you are being a slave to the love but it is not the slavery of kindness, the fear of losing the reputation.
"Until You've Lost Your Reputation, You Never Realise
What A Burden It was Or What Freedom Really Is"
But the courage heart waited for the impact without knowing what is in the package. Still counting the days. And our she, stayed for a while near that pillar and tried to find how being loved would feel. We shall let her be there for a while, she is not waiting for prince, it is just her time and she is doing what she wants to do.
So what's your story?
