"करुणा ही प्रेम है ; सेवा ही धर्म है"

Far flung fantasies

Blond hairs. Tall. Exceptionaly Fit and  Fair. Indeed he was too good looking to be ignored even in a flood of people.

The lanes were full of people like it was an ocean of mankind. He with his eminent look was roaming around alone in this crowd of infinite people. Carefree. Calm. Composed of music. Having an empathetic emotional heart and soft voice. Carrying endless questions in his head which were a sign of his unbounded wittiness. The car he drives at eighteen tells you he has a rich dad. But his demeanor will tell you in span of seconds that he is not a spoiled brat. Ha ha!! Yeah he was the dearest of those girls who dreamed about “Charles! The prince Charming of Cinderella” in their early sixteens. But he had a choice too…….

He noticed in that crowd his girl coming. An average heighted pale brown girl having Long hairs. He went closer to her and asked

“Will you be joining Mr. Evan for Due diligence?”

“I have already joined Mr. Fedrick a month ago and you know it”

“yeah. i was just willing if you can change?”

“Naa. Am not going to”

He kept on staring for a while at the bluntness she wears. The spark in her eyes. The gestures she wears reflects the fire she plays with in her mind. But she is too closed to ask for a date. She is too closed that she is mysterious enough to challenge mind of any man.

If you would peep in her mind. you will find she is too closed because she downgrades herself so much! How can a guy like “him” even approach her every time she walks into the room. He is the dream of every beauty of this batch. And she….!! She is no beauty. She never was. She never can. We often underestimate ourselves enough to be our greatest critic.

The lecture had started. Batch had settled down. She saw him from her middle fifth row. He was on the first in her left.

He turned back for a micro second And “Stop thinking about her”, his mind yelled.

Life offers too good things to be accepted as reality sometimes…
