It was a clear evening. There was no Sun
smiling midst of clouds, yet there was brightness around. Chill breeze was
swaying. My new found fringes were kissing my cheeks and I was enjoying the
romantic affair between them as a silent spectator.
As I strode longer and farther, I noticed
that the shades of sky were changing, from bright blue to white, then from ash
to grey and finally thick grey. And bitty droplets followed.
I hastily opened my umbrella and continued
my walk...
Each of my steps reminded me of those
days... Those days when I was a budding teenager; with reddish beadlike pimples
on face; with hair plaited on both sides...
Each droplet that fell on me tickled the
buried, yet unforgotten memories.... Memories of love and happiness...
It kindled his memories...
His tall figure, deep eyes, wavy hair and
killer smile started engulfing my memories. I vividly remember everything; each
detail...
Was that a decade before, I wonder.
That day when he looked at me after a few
years of estrangement... That day when he smiled at me... And that moment when
I realized that I am in love...
The phantasmagoria made me nostalgic... A
faint smile creaked on my face... I felt like a teenager who is infected by
fanatic love.
Then, as the downpour became denser, the
breeze passed current of shivers through my body. My eyes welled up when the
memories of that day passed through my memories...
How can I ever forget that moment when he
talked to me for the first time on a rainy
day?
That rainy day when we renewed our
friendship... When I fell in love with him all over again... When happiness
enwrapped me... When success hooked to me... When life looked vibrant and
colorful...
As the intensity of rain started diminishing,
his memories also began to fade... Tears started flowing... Where those days of
ripe love vanished, I asked myself... I wondered why the first love still
brought a smile and droplets of tears at the same time... Why his absence still
pricked, I pondered...
May be that’s why they say first love is
special, I concluded...
Monsoon is special and there are special memories associated with rains and occurrence of rain somewhere makes you nostalgic
