The Final Word

All along this ride, I was wondering from where to get this conversation started. We both knew this was going to be, in the least, awkward. He tried the usuals for starters, cussing the traffic, stepping on gas more often than required, blaring music be changed every 2 minutes, coming out rough.

Such talks are over-rated, you know, a girl and a boy talking through an 'incident'. Much more than a book  they shared that carried a personal bookmark, to a longer than usual eye-to-eye contact in a conversation, a conversation that for most parts was one-sided; she is drunk, check!

I've heard this laugh before, I know this silence.

I'm still here, with everything left past behind me.
I'm still standing right there, with myself.
I've got no two ways about this.
And it's not going to be you and me.

The noises in the car were not louder than those in my head. The wheels just kept rolling. Just as 'breaking ice' is a term for false alarm, I did it!

Yes, you will be in my dreams.
Yes, you will be with me all  along.
Not because I know this now
But because we will make it work and how

Numb in my head, i could just feel my eye lids go up heavily, my bright glass window slowing transforming from blurred dots to clear streaks of sun rays. I felt the cushion like 10 times. I hadn't slept all night. It was just the last 15 minutes that my winks lasted a little longer. I din't pinch myself. Cuz if it was a dream, i din't want to wake up. I was happy. Ecstatic. I had my biggest and brightest smile ever. Still lying on my stomach, glancing my 5-yr old sister happily asleeep, I felt my eyes, a little swollen now. It was bright and blissful outside, but the superlatives could go to my then face hands down.I turned. "OMG i am so, so, happy!" i sighed. I got...

Questions, Answers and Givens.

Ever wondered what a 5-year old thinks of your most valued possessions? Or, take, for example, your consideration for the favourite toy of your little ones. My 7-year old cousin plays with her dolls almost everyday. Her favorite possession, i suppose. Garden trees, her favorite spot. You will find her there almost everytime she is angry with someone or is 'upset' because of her friends' behavior. Two days of non-stop chatter and play with her and i had my own' when-upset-sit-here-alone' place, a broken laptop (my ex-most valued possession, and a new worry. Well once every day, this kid exclaimed, " We are going to see the moon now!" or " The sun! hurray!" I had serious doubts on the origin of such statements leave alone the excitement. So i take her out to get some of her favorite ice cream. The last thing i wanted to hear, " Are going to see the moon?" is what she said. Surprised at my response, I began to feel the world, look at it fr...
