I was waiting for him at our favrt ice cream parlour. I was feeling restless. Not in a mood of thick shake. When he called me up, he was upset. Something was wrong with him. Looking at the table nearby, some friends were enjoying cold coffee. I lost into the days when I met him first time. I came with shefu didi to get his friend an idol for his lil sis. I still remember that he wore a yellow loose shirt with baggy jeans. A geek specks and beard. He was a mess was my first thought.. He just said hii to me and went busy talking with Shefu. I took strawberry shake. They both had chocolate shake. I was feeling irritated. He gave me and shefu fruit n nuts. I just said that I hate chocolates. He exclaimed... "Koi chocolate bhi hate karta hai???" He teased me in our whole meeting. The guy became a confusion for me... Was he really a geek?
My past walkover was soon broke up by mobile ring. It was Dhiraj. He told me that he is struck in traffic jam. Will be reaching the shop soon. I have never seen him so eager. Something definitely was wrong with him. I was worried for him.
It was still an amazement for Shefu didi how I got feeling for Dhiraj. Bcoz we never met much. I just chatted generally with him mostly as Shefali... All I knew that it is not necessary that you can love a person only if you meet him daily. I said the same to didi. Didi consoled me that she will try to convince Dhiraj for the same. I was happy.. Shefali was the best sis anyone can get. Next day didi planned choco shakewith Dhiraj as they used to. This time I too joined them. As didi was to start my topic. He told us that he got in relationship and suddenly a girl entered and joined us. Dhiraj introduced us to Isha. I was feeling like crying aloud. But I had to control. I congratulated the couple and went off the parlour saying that I had some work. Shefu understood the problem. She also went behind me to control me. I just kept crying sitting back on activa on all the way to home. That was the worst time of my life. Even today I get goosebumps thinking those days.
Somehow I adjusted with the situation and tried to move on. Don't know how but Dhiraj and me became good friends. All I wanted to check if Dhiraj is happy. That was my only wish. Yes he was happy with Isha. From that day, I left the city for higher studies and went away from Dhiraj. 2 years had been passed since. But it was been felt like it happened yesterday. Don't know from where Dhiraj got my number. I was choked up when I heard his voice. He just told that he wanted to meet me urgently. Shefu was on honeymoon so I had to handle this situation alone. Each and every event of my past was running like a movie. Then someone in a hurry entered the almost empty parlour. It was him. He was with red eyes and much weak. I just stood on my seat to run and hug him tightly. But somehow I controlled. He came near me and hugged me and started crying. I was happy because Dhiraj hugged me. But sad because He was crying. I can't see him crying. I still don't know why tears started flowing from my eyes. I asked him the matter. "Anju... Isha left me... She says that she loves someone else...." and again he hugged me and cried. I didn't cared all the staring audience at the parlour. I hugged him tightly and cried with him. All I wanted to do was to say him that Still.... I love you...
