Silence..

Finally, the day had come when He was supposed to leave. He met all of them for that one last time together, that one last good-bye and that one last hug.

She liked him from a long time but just couldn’t let it out. After hearing this news, she knew the time had come. She had to tell him about her feelings. The feelings that she had felt deep and dense inside her every-time she saw him.

They were all there at the air-port to bid him good-bye. He came and hugged her tight. He had never ever done that before. He left. She saw him go. She didn’t tell him anything.

She stood still, with a smile on her face; a wet blur in her eyes but still bliss in her heart. Because that one moment, those few seconds when he held her in his arms, she lived an entire lifetime and she was happy with that.

Some things don’t make sense even if you say them loud but some are felt even if they are never said at all. And that’s the beauty of SILENCE..

Cheers

KAMLA KA HAMLA...

Hey everyone..Well its after a very very long time I'm back here to pakao u guys with my usually unsual stuff. This is a very funny or rather embarrasing incident that happened with me long time back. But whenever I recollect the same or revisit the same place where it took place, I end up laughing. [And you guys know like how interesting or funny an incident should be to make me laugh...:D] Well.. this is how it goes...

I was driving my way back after dropping off one of my friends near Mulund and I happened to get a signal at the the Teen Haath Naka in Thane. Well, it's a pretty long signal of about 160 secs or something. And as every signal in Mumbai is, even this one's a sacred place for all the beggars, vendors and eunuchs who are popularly known as the KAMLAs and the VIMLAs these days.. all thanks aour raido channels.. Although they aren't that frequent at this place but that was their scheduled day I guess.

Anyways, I was waiting at the signal listening to some crap on the radio and this one eunuch happened to spot me and started asking for some money. The excerpt of the same is as follows:

He/She..?? : Aye raaaaajjjjjjuuuu..... kuch de naaaaa rrrreeee...
I : Kuch nahi hain...[I never give money to these people.. Reason,
dunno...]
He/She..?? : Aye chikne....mere hero.. kuch to de... bhagwan tujhe acchi biwi dega
rrrrreeeeeee....
I : Are yaar....bola na..kuch nahi hain... jaao abhi idhar se...
He/She..?? : AAArreee aisaa kya bolta tu.. tvoda to de... Kya rrree Mere LALU...!!!


After these few last words from his/her mouth, I was stunned. I just couldn't digest what I was referred to as and I handed over some money to him/her. The signal was about to go green and out of curiosity I literally looked outta the window to check out what he/she was referring to other automobile drivers at the signal and I was shocked again... Again the same word.
The signal went green and I thought, mebbe they have left the RAJUs & PAPPUs and have found some new ones. Hope so they get over with that one soon…


Cheers

P.S: For people who don’t know, LALU is my pet name, something by which I’v been referred for like 21 fcukin years..!!!
