“She added, suddenly, ‘But before you hang up, you have to say one good thing.’ One good thing? Now where on earth would I find one good thing to say? But I’d watched a movie the day before and, thanking god, I repeated a line from it. ‘Bismil ka sandesh hai ki kal Lahore jaane wali gaadi hum Kakori pe lootenge, aur un paison se hathiyar kharidenge.’”
It was not because of the book and prior lines. The thought behind my “SAY SOMETHING GOOD” to you was just to submerse back few words from you after a long conversation. Just to remember the last words of yours. I wish you could understand my feelings, how it is feels to not hear from you even after having you, cross my mind every now and then. Able to see you but, unable to touch you, feel you, and may be kiss you.
I am no nagging girlfriend who wants to nag you down all the time, because you are busy. Or because you are hanging out with friends and family. I am someone who just want to hear you.
I stopped calling you saying you to ‘say something good’ not because you wanted it to be like that but, because I don’t want to nag you. I may be not the person to whom you gonna propose to, or would make love to, or share your dreams to, or live your dreams with, or the person you would share your biryani with, or may be kiss on forehead after a nightmare, bad day, or to be taken care of on the hardships of mood swings (that I wouldn’t be having anymore), or the person with whom you make child with, or take care of in old age. May be I am not that love.
But I am the person who wants you to smile forever with or without me, the deepest dig in your cheeks. Who loves your aroma even, if you haven’t taken bath after the gym. Who loves to see your cuts and curves and, even the swollen belly. Who loves you, no matter how much fat you are, or dark you are. Who would love you, even after so many hidden years, if sees you, at 60 when your face would be wrinkly. But, your smile would still fascinate me.
You can always find the love in my eyes for you, whenever you want. I will be waiting for you on the downtown’s late, busy, dark street where destiny has planned to bump you into me.
Not because I want to make love after. But to see you in those tuxedo’s walking around, having a newspaper in one hand and a latte in other and having a Bluetooth in your ears, busy in dealing with your client. So much busy that you don’t even notice me, and we fell right after few nano seconds. Then you would look up to see who the idiot girl is. I want to be that idiot single girl. Who is having a super fabulous car but still walks on the roads just so that one day, may be one day her honey would bump into.
