The lean and emaciated figure rose from the chair with trembling feet. A distant and echoing sound comes ‘Do you want to do it…… A futile movement of hand showing ‘I am gone crazy’ but he is still standing, the feet still trembling. Few seconds passed in complete silence if 2000 watts inspire is considered to be silent. Jaws clenched and relaxed. The last iota of light left his sight though the eyes are open, as if the tube light is emanating darkness. Death of silence and birth of the rhythmic sound of a scared and liberated heart Go……..No……….Go……………No………………………………………………………Go……. and finally ‘No’ died. Hand moved second time, the latchet fell with a little jingle. Cold handle inspired few hairs to stand up and spine to shiver. Neither the hairs stood nor the spine obeyed the order of coldness, is it what people call numbness??????????? He did not know. The corridor darkness was visible to him, he could see now. Surprisingly he turned back to look into his room…. Lo!!! Darkness again. Maktub
Earlier today he is alive standing at century gate looking at his cell phone for confirmation of time sixth time in past 1 minute. The hour and minute hands are about to meet to declare the most unlucky day of boys life that is 10 December. Patience gave up, fingers fiddled with cellphone keypad.
The boy: where are you?
The voice(feminine full of happiness and volume): still five minutes left.
The boy: I don’t think I will be getting that in time.
The voice: ya, if we talk while I am driving at 100 sure you will not get it not even after time.
The boy: oh ok ok
He is happy really happy and touched, moved deeply by the gift of destiny just like saddam hussain would be if he made president of USA. Anybody would be if a girl having physical structure as those girls acting in movies is coming to wish your birthday with a gift that no male can wait long for. He was deeply excited about it as shown by a small bulge in the objectionable area.
Whoooooooshhh!!!!!!!!!!!! a shining black car appeared at his side from no where. Back door opened as soon as it stopped and the boy jumped into it speaking “fast only 3 minutes left”.
“Hold on here we go”. And he felt a great force pushing him deep into the back seat. The road was empty and speed was lightning so it took only 66 seconds to reach SOLANI CANAL. Car stopped with a jerk both of them jumped off the car and descended few steps to reach to the bottom step which was half drowned in icy chilled water. This time each and every hair of their body rose to salute the chill and both shiver in pain produced by stinging effect of icy water perhaps this is what people call life. The boy looked at her in the half lit moonlight. The face was spotless and smoothness was reflected by its resplendence. Soft was it cause hands disobeyed the master and continued touching the cheeks passionately. Dark black eyes were innocent and virgin because they were fighting with all their mirth to keep matching the boy’s sight. A wispy stroke of kajal gave them a boundary otherwise they were threatening the boy to drown him into them. The boy quaffed the rich and pristine aroma of Sandal mixed with the fog which made it heavy and persistent. The bulge increased a bit and to make it less visible to her he stepped closer towards her she retaliated by looking down into her feet. The boy followed her sight and looked at her feet. The feet were drowned in water up to ankle height. The flowing water was making them move slightly and the light resplendent silvery payal was like a garland on a marble pillar. The tension rose as his body touched her, the aroma engulfed him completely, coldness was absent he transcended into numbness.
Beep beep beep alarm sounded
“Happy birthday” she whispered, her enticing and chiseled lips moved close to boy’s and touched them softly accompanied with an exchange of warm breaths. The boy was in some other land far ahead of numbness and trance, it was something different. He pulled her by her waist and she let her fall on his hands completely, they drunk love. For almost two minutes they quaffed the essence of love and slowly the girl slid herself in his embrace and held him tightly. I fulfilled my promise to you that you will get your gift in time. Yes you did thanks a lot.
Girl let her out of his embrace and said: "Hurry I have your cake in the car lets go and have it". "Yes sure" boy said and pulled her back to him and once again they lost in the mist, transferred to some other world.
Am I dead or alive
