Crush: A Tale Of Silent Love and Admiration, Ritesh Prasad [i love reading TXT] 📗

went to college with the hope, I will see her today but returned home in despair. I was worried what had happened to her why she was not coming to college, but I had no one who could give me information about her, the people I know were also clue less. Then one day post lunch while I was  in the classroom waiting for our next period to start, I overheard some girls gossiping about her,  that she went back to her hometown as her mother was critically ill and admitted to ICU and there were very less chances that she will come back. This news broke my heart and as days passed on, slowly I started losing hope too. This way a month passed and as expected she never came back. The college for me was no more vibrant, every day as i entered the classroom, i missed her presence badly. This way months passed, and I never ever saw her again. Slowly i also accepted the fact that she will never come back. Life kept on rolling as usual and couple of years later I completed my graduation and then moved to Delhi to pursue my MBA.

 

Though our journey was very short lived, but she is there with me in my thoughts always. Those 10 mins of togetherness in that rainy evening under one umbrella is buried in my heart and will always be special. Whenever i see young couples walking in same scenario, this makes me nostalgic.   I don't know where she is but I still pray and wish the best for her life. I am not even sure, if she remembers those 10 mins of our togetherness but for me, it was one of the most beautiful experience, that brings smile every time I recall it.
