In this journey called life, you meet thousands n thousands of people. But very rarely do you come across a special few who make an impact… who change your world… who change the way you perceive your life. It is them, infact, who give you a reason to smile, to be happy and in a broader sense, to live.
But on one turn, you realize that it is time for the final goodbye (For those who have lost their loved ones, it is not too hard to imagine all the things that I’m writing now.. please forgive me if I hurt any sentiments). And it is never easy to say the final few words… those few moments feel like eternity.. you can hear the breath, you can feel your heart pounding.. you look into his/her eyes and get that sinking feeling. You try to hold on.. to stay afloat.. to breathe.. but to no avail. There are so many things you want to say but no words come out. All the times that you spent together flash in front of your eyes. This sadness knows no bounds. Just then, your time runs out. The voice fades away, those eyes close forever to your sight, the comfort that you got from holding hands turns into a cold painful sensation. He/she is gone… yes, gone forever but it takes you a while to realize the impact of this sorrow. But, you feel it and it hits you hard.
But I’m not here to make you sad, right! So, seasons change, the memories fade and so does the pain. And LIFE GOES ON!

She stood motionless in the balcony of her house on a cold winter night under the light of the full moon… She took the mobile in her hand, saw the missed call list, for the fourteenth time in the last one hour… but he had not called. Her hand dropped, she closed her eyes and thought… just as she had been thinking for the last few days…
What had she wanted? Was it something so unaffordable that he could not provide? Was a last phone call from the man that she loved so much… for whom her heart yearned day and night for last so many years… so undeserved? Why was she not considered worth for just one chance of saying for the last time how much she loved him, thanking him for all the beautiful moments they had lived together, just listening to his voice once again, feeling her heart race by his romantic talk?
It had been a few weeks that they had not been together. They both knew the relationship was unsustainable… not because they did not want it, but because of the circumstances… But was this the right way to end it? She wondered. Could he not have called up? She was infact as prepared as one can be, for the impending break-up.. but this move had indeed taken her by surprise. Not that she had not tried calling him up, she did… but only to find the phone switched off.
Her love story, not unlike millions and billions of others, had ended… just as fast as it began. She was still standing there… heartbroken though, barely able to support herself on her weak knees… just wondering… what if???
