Unfinished Chapters

It's all over it's been years, and this place hasn't changed yet. My name is Lavanya and this is a part of our story.

It was right here, when I caught him starring me. I never thought he will be the one. he has always been tall for his age. He used to tower over everyone. but when he met me, he said he was immediately drawn towards me. We had an undeniable chemistry that grew stronger with each passing day.

He was a giant, I often thought my kids would grow taller as him, I would see them and cherish forever in my life, he was wild but his heart was all made of cottons, I guess. I loved the ability of him to make me laugh with his silly jokes. I still remember those hours that we spent together talking about everything from our favourite food to our dreams for the future. Despite the challenges we faced as a tall boy and short girl we knew that we both worth each other so much. We never shared our feeling about each other, but I knew that he was my missing piece of my life.

It was a fine afternoon, I was not in a moodcause am not finding few letter that I wrote late night for him, and a paperplane that he gave me. So was out to have my lunch to the canteen, thinking whyisn't he picking up my call?! And there is saw him speaking to someone nearcanteen, I moved forward and saw a girl, she was a popular one. one of the mostbeautiful girl in our college, I heard she liked hi, "ohh shit really, that wasthe reason she asked did he approach me ?" I moved forward, He saw me walkingtowards him, his face turned pink and smiled, he was said hie, I moved closer,and stood on the bench beside them, I wanted him to tell something hence calledhim closer, he placed his ears right before my lips, I press his cheek andturned it towards me and kissed him. His eyes became no smaller than an air balloon.As I saw him, he closed eyes immediately, his arms wrapped around me. My heartbeat just skipped. His both the hands were holding my cheeks and touched hisforehead and nose with mine, our eyes weren't opened yet. There was no need forsaying those 3 words, we knew it by our actions. 

His both the hands were holding my cheeks and touched his forehead and nose with mine, our eyes weren't opened yet. There was no need for saying those 3 words, we knew it by our actions. We both felt each other's breath and little embarrassed to look at ourselves and turned quickly. We sat down on the floor I was looking at my shoes and saw a tissue being passed from him. I took it and wiped my face and looked at him, when he was already seeing me. I will tell you it was the best moment in my life with him. I asked, "what are you looking for?" He said,

"the girl with whom I was talking, gave me these letters that you wrote it for me and she also gave a paper plane". 

I wiped the tears rolling down my cheeks. It's been 4 years snice the things have ended, someone else have filled my space in his life.

He lovedme so much, first 7 months of our dating was very smooth, then the time camewhen we had a vocation in my semester holidays, Haridwar. The holy place for Hindus.The worst thing was there were always people around me. I hardly spent some a houra day with him, yes "online kadhal". I missed my friends, my campus, my hostelroom, but someone else above them was him, his smell, his love that kept mypoems alive, his jokes, the warmth that's found in his chest. Every evening Ihad to go to the bank of river gang and pray with my granny. She wasn't well onthat day, I refused to go alone, but lord shiva and Parvati were gettingmarried, she wanted me to see that. I wore a yellow sari on that day, I waslooking like a polished pearl placed on top of a yellow saree.

I was sitting on the steps of the river, and seeing people celebrating the fest. Feeding fishes was a real fun. I also try to touch them while pitching food, I suddenly felt something huge one ohh it was a mommy fish or something? I looked around for people so that I could ask if there is a huge fish here inside, found none. I tried to touch it again, this time it wasn't a fish it was a huge hand that pulled me inside the water, there I fall. A tall creature, It was him he was wearing a white pant and a white cotton shirt, he didn't shave his bear snice I left, he held my left hand and had his right hand around me. Surprise was extremely small compared to what I felt on that day. I said I needed air lets go up, I asked him why are you here and how did you find me? He said snap map, he saw me sitting and thought of surprising me, its fine lets move up, sit and watch the gods getting married together. He held my hand tight and said, enough of dating, life is hard without you, I was stun, there were a lot of crackers bursting in the sky, it's light reflected underwater, we took a deep breath and went it the water again. This time he swam a bit a brought a flower with pink petals and gave it to me. He took a box from his pocket, it had 2 rings. He knelt down one knee. I was blanked out as usual, off course he knew I would say yes ... he took a ring a left it in the water towards me, I caught it. We exchanged the ring, exactly when the lords got married out, there were loud music and mantras playing behind, and the diyas and crackers switched on the lights under the water. We needed air, so we went back got some air and came back. We hugged each other and stayed for a while under water. Looked at each other and giggled, air bubbles came outa our mouth. It was a huge day, he became my everything. I felt his heart vibrating, as I hugged him. I asked God, why God why, do I deserve him? We came out soon and spent all night sitting on the steps of the river. He brought his bags, took a over coat and gave it to me, it was extremely cold, but I didn't mind sharing it with him.

Today we aren't together but am happy that once my breath had your smell. Our memories had turned into a book that has to be closed now.
