Tears..




So what's the big fuss if a boy cries? He too has his feelings, feelings which sometimes find no other route but the eyes. Why is it that when a boy cries in a public place, people stare at him, look at him and think...what is wrong? This GUY is crying.!!! Mohan was facing a similar situation when he was sitting on the window seat of the CST bound train that he had boarded from Kalyan. He never knew when those tears came down from his eyes. He didn't realize that people around him were looking at him with a suspicious look. He looked at the buildings passing by with a heavy heart...Just 15 minutes back, he had bid adieu to the love of his life, his girlfriend, Sunaina.
Their relationship suffered from a serious disease called "Long Distance". Yes, the same old story of long distance relationships. She hailed from Ratnagiri, a beautiful, picturesque town placed between the lush green hilltops in the serene proximity of the Arabian Sea. She had somehow managed to get two days off and had come to meet Mohan. Mohan was working in a multi-national company as a junior manager. Their love blossomed during their MBA days and now they were just inseparable.
"Hey jaanu, i m coming to Mumbai for a day". said Sunaina. He distinctly remembered her words. It was 10th January, a day before yesterday. The day before went so fast, proving the Relativity theory right. These thoughts constantly came to his minds. His eyes didn't move a bit, a desperate attempt by him to bring in some other thoughts were crushed down by the message that he received. It was from Sunaina, " I miss u baby" His eyes again started disgorging....
As Thakurli station passed by he saw flashes of what happened 15 minutes back. They were waiting for the train, on the Kalyan station. Mohan cursed Indian railways as the train came on time. He was holding her hand tightly, never to let her go away from him, not even in his dreams. When the train stopped, he helped her get into the coach, kept her luggage and heaved a sigh of relief. He saw her with the waiting eyes, he knew she was leaving him in few seconds, but couldn't say anything. She saw his anxiety. As he was going to say something to her, he stood up and gave him a tight hug, and planted a kiss on his lips. No, this is not a karan johan climax scene. He opened his eyes only to find the train moving. He had to get down, he had to say goodbye to her.
Mohan: Bye jaanu...
Sunaina: Byeee, plz get down the train has already started baby...
Mohan: I'l keep calling u, don't worry, please take care of yourself, and please drink lots of water, i hope you have taken the bottle...
Sunaina: Dnt worry jaanu, please get down,u also take care...
The train was speeding up. He got down and saw her through the adjacent window.He could distinctly see the tears flowing down his love's beautiful face. They departed with a promise to meet as soon as possible....
"Agla station dombivli......Next station dombivli"
This announcement brought him back to the present world. The train was near the Dombivli station. He got up and started walking, accompanied by the thoughts of his love, the beautiful moments they spent, her smile and of course, some tears!!
