I lie awake
through the night,
passing every
minute of coupled seconds.
To hear the
stupid ramblings.
The hush-hush
of your breath,
during the
pause you decide to take.
For the
repeated stories,
cause you
forgot that you have told them to me already..
Flipping
through the pages of the novel,she tried not to think about him.And how was
that possible when she took up a romantic genre.Frustrated she plopped her head
down on the open book.Why was it so hard for her mind and heart to work in
harmony and say yes at the same proposition.He had said during last call that
he was going out of the city for somedays.Yet she was looking at her cell every
few seconds,checking if he had called.Tired of waiting she did what she could
do the best.Dropping a text to him which he can reply to when he feels fine.Retyping
it almost for ten times she hit the send button.An instant delivery report came
back to her.Now she waited for his message.Now she laughed at her
foolishness.Closing the book she tried to relax and get some sleep.
She blinked
open her eyes checking the clock,it was 1 A.M.She peeked in to check whether
there were any messages but her inbox still lay dormant.She was close to
tears.And then started her monologue Can’t he spare one look at his mobile?And
then can’t he just reply for once?At least he could give me a call that he
reached…..
A number
blinked on her screen,she did not pick it up because already she was riled up
and it was 1 in the morning.This was no time to pick calls that too from an
unknown number.The number flashed for some time and then again everything was
quite.The eerie silence was successful in bringing her sleep back.
After ten
days he called her up.She decided she would be blunt about everything and not
reply straight.
Hello
What do you
want?
Is this
what you say as your first line?
Yes.Don’t
you know? Oh! Yes how would you,you haven’t talked to me from fifteen days.
He started
laughing on the other side.Which only fueled her anger.
Now go on
laugh at me.
Who said I was
laughing at you honey?
Of course
you are.
Ok.Fine.I accept
it.Happy?
No not
happy.Couldn’t you just reply to my message or give me a call for so many days
you were MIA.
Aww..
And now she
started sobbing.
Please don’t
cry baby.Okay I will tell you why I was laughing.You sounded like a baby while
you were saying all those lines.And I called you from some other number when I had
got your message but you did not pick it up.
Now she
started giggling,hearing his serious tone while he was explaining himself.
Heyyy..not
fair now you are laughing on me.
Hehehehehe..No
no I was laughing at your tone.
And they
both started laughing.Such was their sweet and sour relation.He teased her but made sure to bring back her smile.She knew his ways but still couldn't stop herself from getting played,and then eventually falling for his making up.
