Accidental Attachment

Bliss

Sree

I was so happy after many years.
His smile, his voice, the feeling of having him around me.. That's what I missed, with him around. I felt blissful.
I didn't care about.. What I was going to do next. Somewhere inside, he has to remember me.. That's why he asked me for a date..
I believed in us, I believed my love wouldn't become some sad tragic story..

I made excuses to stay in New York.
I had actually met a possible client in the conference..

He called me back in a week, the next Saturday..
The feeling never ceases, when I see his name on my phone,..
I always felt like I was newly in love..

I picked the phone

Sree: Yes, S.. Maya speaking

Vikram : Hey... So any plans today..

Sree: No, just finished work,.. I'm free

Vikram: So,.. How about today, want to meet?

I pinched myself to make sure, I wasn't dreaming. He really likes me?

Sree: yah sure

Vikram ; ok tell me your office address, I'll come pick you up..

I told him the address and waited for him,.. Hoping no one will see..

He came there in 10 minutes. He had a different car. I missed his previous car.
I had lots of memories related to that..

I got in the car.. He was wearing a black shirt and jeans.. My heart fluttered..
No matter how many times I see you, Vikram.. I can't get rid of this feeling whenever I see you..

I smiled..

"Where are we going? ", I asked

" You will see" he said

"Hmm", I said looking in front..

" So tell me, what is in your mind? ", he asked..

I looked up at him, he was looking at the road.

How do I tell you Vikram, what I feel about you, .. What I think ... That you are my life, that I cannot separate you from it,.. That I love you so much, and you don't even know that..
That I'm so close to you, yet ...

I'm scared that my eyes will speak my mind.. I'm not that good at acting in front of you..

" Excuse me, Maya, where are you lost? ", he asked glancing at me..

In you..

The way.. His eyes sparkled, when he looked at me, His eyelashes were even as thick as a woman's

I shook my head..

" Nothing, I was just wondering, where you are taking me", I asked

"We will be there in a few minutes", he said

We arrived at Brooklyn botanical Garden.

" You've been here? " , he asked

"No.. I haven't", I said

" I take a stroll here, often, it's beautiful and peaceful.. And it's spring now ", he said

" Spring? ", I asked

" Yes, come on", he said..

The garden, was pretty , there were many people many couples too..

We passed through a lake..
