Waiting for her :(

"Dost happyyy birthdayyy yaaraaa..raat ko phone kiaa mai aur abhishek dono, u didnt pick up the cal..shun na saale"..

His phone beeped with his friend's message and he unlocked the screen and replied with..

"Thanks harami..shayaad so gaya tha..kya bolna hai bol bhai"..

After few minutes his phone again beeped with that friend's message..

"Kaha hai tu? Milte hai aaj be.. aj tera birthday hai harami aaj toh tym nikal le"

He was not able to answer to that reply because he didn't wanted to meet anyone on that day.. he used to cancel plans at the last moment saying that he is busy with some work or with his family but actually he wanted to stay alone. He didn't like meeting up much after what happened to his beautiful life..

After almost an hour he replied to him..

"Ha be milte hai..mai toh salt lake k side hu tu aja yahaa agar free hai toh"...

It took his friend another 1 hour to reach up there and then there they was, two best friends meeting after 2 months inspite of living at the same locality...

His friend hugged him tight and said..

" kya yaar aj bhi sad? Aj bhi yaha aya hai tu..you are again back to that bloody life jisse u said that you moved on"..

He kept his head low without answering his questions. His eyes were wet, yes he was crying, he was crying standing at the bus stand were he used to meet his love every time before any date. He used to pick her from that bus stand, they used to hug right there before saying bye to each other after spending a beautiful day together..

His friend again asked in an angrt tone...

"Kyu hurt karta hai khudko? Kyu ata hai idhar? Wo wish nahi ki na?"

He never even expected her to wish him on that day...
So sitting on the bench kept there, he answered..

"This was the place were i last met her..
I never thought that, that day will be our last meet, this was the place jaha i used to happily wait for her to come.. aur aj, aj bhi yahi khara hu subha se bas the difference is that i know she won't come..everything is same, this busy street, the buses racing against each other, the noise but, but she is not there, i don't know were to find her she is nowhere"

He paused to wipe his tears and then continued with his low voice..

"Just few months back.. here we used to sit and decide kaha jana hai, aj kaha ghumna hai, we used to fight, masti mai marpit tak kiye hai yaha..i feel good here..i feel she is there, i can feel her presence but then.."

He couldn't complete and started crying while his friend hugged him tight..

He asked his friend while his words babbled..

"Bhai wo nahi ayegi na? Kabhi bhi nahi?"..

His friend kept quiet and hugged him tighter...
