it rained all night...

Walking in the rain all by himself, soaked from the spell of rain, lost in thoughts. regret and grief visible in his walk. He is upset, and the way it seems, with himself… getting gloomy and more frustrated with each step, unconscious where they are leading him…flashback starts to roll…the moments he shared with her, from the first day…how they met, how she spilled soda on his new shirt…all the fights, the abundant of times they used to chat on her rooftop, the ups & downs of they shared separately yet together... discussing about the day’s breakfast & all the way to the relative’s gossip her mom had recently told her… the few romantic moments when she was unaware of the truth…

With that thought, he paused & looked around to realize that he was at the same spot where they used to have her ice-creams & his cold drinks together…

He has lost her, the one person who cared about him, someone he could always count on, no matter what time it is….someone in whom he found the motherly care & the craziest best pal…

His eyes began to look for her, hoping that maybe, maybe she would understand him right now, like she always did & would come and hug him this very moment… all he wanted to see right now was her face, which holds the best smile in this world and the way she magnetized it with a wink of her eye…all he wanted to feel was her embrace & the scent of her hair, all he wanted to hear was her enchanting voice…

And then his eyes rested on a young couple, the girl enjoying the rain & forcing the guy to come out of the shade and feel the drizzle with her…hmm, rain is indeed magical…he remembered how she used to love rains & jumped in the puddle, dancing & singing all the way…how delicate & child-like she was… how dare he hurt her feelings, ahhh!!! The thought of tears in her eyes pained him to the core…

And the thought dawned upon him, how foolish he was…he loved her, he always had… he can’t even picture his future without her… he remembered how he used to relax with her in her arms, listening to his heartbeats…how he would pour out all his deepest and darkest secrets while resting on her lap…how empty his nights seemed when she didn’t came to the terrace…

A smile crossed his face with tears rolling down his cheeks & he took a ice-cream…
