CHAPTER VII: FEW YEARS LATER…



CHAPTER VII: FEW YEARS LATER…


As years passed by I was going through a very emotional phase. We tried to adjust ourselves in the ‘Just Friends' category but with passage of time, our friendship died a silent death. A love story that triggered between two souls just to end before it could blossom.

There were ups and down in life. The heart was sad and the mind depressed. I was battling all this because at the end of the day Life was moving on. I tried forgetting her but neither could that happen because she was not just in my heart but she was my heart and how could I forget my heart that kept pumping every second after second. Trying to forget someone whom you love is just like trying to remember someone whom you never knew.

People thought I was happy but what people never realised was that deep inside I was a lonely soul amidst a huge crowd trying to find solace. Every happy face has a troubled past and I call it ‘Experience’. An experience that taught me many things. It taught me to face life. It made me strong emotionally. 

I thought I was moving on when life once again put me in an emotional encounter. When I tried to walk ahead destiny pulled me back.

It happened so, I was walking on the road when I saw a well-known face in the crowd and all of a sudden the heart started racing. Emotions went frenzy. Mind travelled back on the timeline. I kept looking at her but didn't know what to do. She didn't even notice me. I moved ahead to talk and it was then when my eyes noticed something. Something very significant.

It was the Wedding ring. Yes The Wedding ring. She was happily married. My blood ran cold. I just went numb. Stood back just staring at her. Hands shivering. My eyes were seeing the reality but the poor heart was not ready to accept it.

Though It was bright sunny day, suddenly it started to rain. I got drenched. Drenched in memories. My wet emotional eyes looked at her and the heart said, “Though no longer we both are together but you have given me memories that I cherish. You were the love of my life. My first crazy love. You will always hold a special place in my heart all throughout my life. Look back once.. just look back.. I love you idiot... I still love you”

A FEW INITIAL WORDS

My journey of life started around twenty six years ago. It was going smooth in the initial years. However as years passed by, life started taking a few twists and turns and what followed was a series of chapters. Chapters that brought a complete change in me. It gave me memories that I cherish till date. ‘A PIECE OF MY HEART’ is an adolescent love story which is very close to my heart. It is a journey of a teenager, who didn’t know what exactly love was, to a matured twenty six year old guy. I enjoyed the process of writing this book. It gave me the liberty to think about the things that happened in the past in a different dimension. It changed my outlook towards life. It brought a change in me as a person and a human being. Hope you all have a good reading experience. And yes not to forget… The book is dedicated to ‘HER’ - NINAD WAGH

CHAPTER IV: A NEW JOURNEY

CHAPTER IV: A NEW JOURNEY I reached the class finally with all the emotions in my mind. I was anxious. My body language was different today. Of course it was supposed to be. After all, it needs guts to tell someone that you love her. As soon as I reached the class, I saw the eager face of my friend, who had called me earlier in the day and because of whom I was in such an awkward situation, waiting for my response. I started ignoring her or tried changing topics because though I had made up my mind of saying ‘Yes’ but still I was afraid of the consequences. This continued for some time but finally a ‘Yes’ popped out from my mouth. My friend was so happy that, ironically, I felt as if she was in love with me. She then used the same trick on the girl whom I loved and interestingly a positive reply came from her side as well. I just could not control my emotions. I was happy and very much excited. I felt as if I was on cloud nine. It was a start of a new chapter in m...
