It was a moonless night, Bangalore was colder. With lack of sleep and
food for the past few days, I was feeling weak It was more that I was crawling then walking. I was tired of making her understand.
I was tired of my wet pillows. Did I really deserve this? Was I born to suffer? I need an end to this.
I was crossing the silent road, as I reached the middle, I decided to
stop and end this all for good.
An ending for a happy beginning. I did resist all this long, but not anymore. I am unable to bear the pain any longer. I waited at the middle of the road for a while. I saw an SUV speeding towards me at some distance, I felt so happy, finally there will no more of this pain. I closed my eyes and waited for its arrival. The next thing I heard was the screeching noise of its tyres. It stopped a few meters in front of me. I opened my eyes, it was clear to me that I will be scolded badly.
The guy came out of his car, all dressed in white and smiling at me.
The face looked similar.
May be I saw him earlier somewhere. Then I realized, it was him.
“F**k, was I dead already?”
"Why am I still feeling the pain then?"
He said, "What makes you stare at me?"
and I replied "your face seems similar with my gf's first love. "
"I mean my ex gf."
Other guy: "And, does that make you stare?"
me: "Actually, he died in an accident a few years back."
Other guy: "Yes, I am that very guy. I got your prayers and came for
help. You wanted to meet me, didn't you?"
me: " Yes, but is that possible?"
Other guy: " Yes, that's why I am here?"
Me: "Okay, but why did you listen to my prayers? Am I not the one who
hurt her? So, why did you come to me? "
Other guy: "Yes, I know. This is why I had to be around her for so
long. I know you do care, but all you show is your anger. How can she know that you ever care, if you show her just despair?
This is your final call, it's now or never. Have you realized that, idiot?"
Me: "Huh, I am at the middle of the road at this time of the hour,
don't you realize what makes me here?"
Other guy: "Oh, you started again? Still so rude when you are already in a
sinking ship."
Me: "I am sorry."
Tears rolled down my cheeks.
Other guy: " I do understand, that you are the one who can take care
of her life long, but this is not the way to care people. Things will be okay,never be rude. Show her how much you care for her. She will be forever yours. I
promise you that. And even I can stop worrying for her then as I left her alone."
Me: " I understand. I Love her lots. But may be I never made her realize that, as my actions were always meaning the opposite."
Other guy: " Promise me then, that you will never make her cry again.
That you will be on her side, whenever she needs "
Me: "I promise. I can do anything for her and always keep her happy"
Suddenly everything went blank. As if I became unconscious.
After a long blank, I shivered and woke up on my bed.
That was a dream.
I checked the my phone, it was 8.45 AM. Then saw the last text
messages from her. I had never even thought of contacting her again after the things she said to me over the phone last night.
Still, I called her, and acted like nothing had happened, breaking my
promise of never disturbing her again.
And the rest is history.
Perhaps the angel from my dream did some magic, which I could not with all my efforts.
