Sha : I Love You :)

Memories of her

He was looking at her. She smiled back at him. Both their eyes began talking to each other in a cute way. There was quite a bit of crowd in the bus that denied them to stand together and talk. But distance or crowd never mattered to them. All that mattered was, they were somehow still talking through their eyes.

I was seeing them, smiling to me, sitting in a window seat. I was able to see me and Sha in them.  Exactly an year ago it was in this same 335E (Majestic – ITPL), I saw Sha.  Just like these two people, all that mattered to us was, I am her world, and she, is mine.

Today as I see these two ppl, flash of green memories flow in me.

In Bangalore for the first time

It’s been around 15 months since I came to this city of Bangalore. I came here just like every other person. A normal process – Graduate from a good college, Get placed in an MNC during college, pass out successfully from the college and land up in Bangalore to work. Food (awful), climate (awesome), Girls (so mean in their dresses) – these were the major differences, I could sense between Chennai and Bangalore in my first one week of stay. It’s so easy to spot a gal smoking which I have never seen (at least to my knowledge) during my four years of college life.

“Machan intha Bangalore ponungalam velaikey aagathuda”, a common thought for every guy who has come to Bangalore after being in Chennai. Even I had the same feeling, until one day.

This day exactly ten months ago

I had missed my office cab one fine morning, courtesy the pleasant weather. I had not gone in bus till that day in Bangalore. My roomie told a bus number and specifically told me, not to go in AC bus, as its very costly nu.cha ipadi oru akkrayana frienda nu nenaichukitey bus stop vanthen. First bus came was AC. It was already 10:30. Since I was new to office, I usually reach office early around 9:00. Due to that, I got into the AC bus. Finally I reached my office around 12:00. I was not tensed because i was late. I was not worried what my manager will tell me. Because I was so happy reaching late that day, so happy in travelling in that 335E. Because I was all but thinking of the gal i saw in the bus. I dint go for lunch that day. I dint feel like going. I just dint come out of the awesomeness of that gal. She was Wow . The angel every guy would ideally dream off. I saw my princess in 335E. I dint care who else would be seeing her, I dint care if she had a boy friend already, I dint care if she was older or younger to me, I dint care where she is now, but her face was still very fresh in me. To my dismay I dint know where she got down or from where she was. Only ray of hope I had was next day same time same bus!!

Next Day

Purposefully got up late, missed my cab. Same time, same bus. She dint come (only in movies it happens may be, real life la nadakatha ). Two extreme feelings on both the days. Next day I dint want to try out my luck again. Thinking of her I got back to my usual timings. Life is sweet. I did see her again,  after a week in the same bus .I dint want to leave this chance. For the first time in my life I followed a girl.I wanted to know where she goes. To hell with this following up. I found it really difficult to do this.Always worried if she will turn back and shout.But still I followed.Ada kadavuley !!!!!!! … She works in my office, 2nd floor.And me in 6th floor.How come I have never seen her all these 5 months??? Feeling happy I went to my place for the day. Namma area thaney, paathupom.

As Days passed, closeness increased

But then I never thought TT table will make us close.Of all the ppl who were waiting there to play TT, she came and teamed up with me.That was the first of many times we played together. This continued.I slowly got to know about her.

One name I started thinking more often from that day – Shaswatha, it was her name, Sha in short.Going for TT now became a routine for me.Every day at three o clock , one can find me playing TT mostly with her.But wait.Has she become close?. I really dunno.She was definitely becoming a very good friend to me.Getting close doesnt depend on how much time u know a person.It just happens. And thats how it happened between us.

Messages started flowing in my mobile initially from her.It then turned to long night chats on phone.I always wanted to hear a nightingale sing. But then, realised when compared to her voice, even honey should taste bitter. Her smile – u can sense happiness in you when she smiles. Her eyes speak to you when she is silent. aaahhh… Am I being too much in describing her??  WT!! Nothing is too much for her. She is above everything else in this world for me.I am in search of words to tell about her, about the way she makes me feel. I wish I could tell all those. I really wish.

I did have the courage to tell her that I want her to share my life.Because I knew she too feels the same. Of all the places, I told her my love in 335E. It was this bus which showed her to me. She was not shocked or surprised. All that she did was turned around and checked if anyone in the bus heard it. She then smiled back. God!!! I never knew this will happen. It was all fairy tale till now. Love at first sight.Getting close in 3 months. Proposing to her. And she accepting it. Cha ivalavu seekram katha mudinchuruchey.

Now

Wow what an eventful few months we had. These two ppl in the bus made me rewind all those evergreen times I had with Sha. In two stops I will be seeing her. hats where she gets into the bus usually.

After Proposing, our next few months went off so fast. We spent time together whenever we were able to. Talked about ourselves, our future, everything. We are so often carried away by our thoughts about each other. Fights come now and then between us, mainly bec we care for each other so much. If I don’t get her msg for some time, I get angry on her. Possessiveness is something that created fights between us. But all that mattered little.

There was no villian as such in our love. Separation, even for little time makes us realise how much we mean to each other. Reality is painful. Her stop has come. Sha was not there to be seen. Still, I eagerly look out for her. I can sense her presence. I can feel her in me. She is not to be seen though.  It’s been 2 very long days since she left this wonderful city. And I need to wait another 2 longggg years at least to be with her. She has gone off to America, her passion to do MS. We had lots of fight before she applied for it. Lots of discussions whether she should go or not. Finally I had to give up for her. I dunno how I am gonna be here next two years. An MBA for me and an MS for her was all that would be a difference after I meet her in two years time. My love for her will always be there. After all, I never thought higher studies will be the villian in our life. oh dear i miss you so much already . naanum ms padika poirukalamooo . Our love for each other will be permanent, that’s what her name also means.

Time is the best villian in love. It runs off immediately when she was near me. But now it waits to tick even a second, with out her. Our next two years, how it gonna be? God knows it … All izzz well always
