Everything is never as it seems...


She knew the answer even before the phone was answered... but patiently again listened to his secretary voice saying .."Neil is busy. he will call u later"
He hadn returned her call past two days... this was not like him.. even when angry, he would let her know the reason and would end the fight within a day..

She had felt him pulling away from her quite a long time now.. He hardly spoke to her, and when he did he would tell her he was too busy and drop the call within few minutes..

There was a sense of unknown lose in her.. she felt the dampness on her cheeks and thought this might be the end of a beautiful 5 year long relationship.. with an instant urge in her to be alone from the rest of world.. to cry her heart out... She started her car n drove aimlessly for an hour .. there were hundreds of thoughts in her head .. wanted the answer for his ignorance on her..

And then she couldn even drive anymore.. She saw herself at the beach where they had their first n many more dates.. there was a small sigh thinking of all the beautiful moments spent together..she remembered his promise to build a house for them here.. walking on the beach, she thought she may never again be with Neil on this beach..

Lost in her deep thoughts, she ignored noise overhead of her .. her cell too started ringing.. she saw that it was Neils call n knew for sure that he called to break up with her.. this is it,she thought... you get dumped at the same place where you had your first date.. what an irony!! With a brave heart she answered the call and heard Neil say "hey sweetheart look above.. at the sky".. for a moment she was confused and then when she did .. she saw a airplane carrying a sky banner sign -My Darling Please BE mine.. she heard him again saying "look to your left" and there he was holding a bunch of red roses walking towards her..


Tears were rolling down her eyes now... he got on his knees and proposed "Marry me.. make my life as beautiful as you" ..Instantly she grabbed the flowers and started hitting him. He pulled her close n held her tightly and said sorry.
"Why have you been avoiding me" she asked.. wiping her tears he answered.. "so that you get really mad at me and come here to cry your heart out"..."I wanted to surprise you here"..
"How did you know i would come here" she asked..
"i know you more then you know yourself, but i dint know it would take you two days to come here".. he winked.. "now please say yes" ..
with a wicked smile and tears still rolling down her cheeks she replied " i shall think about it" ..
he just laughed...he knew her answer immediately!!

That was really very touching and beautiful. I had tears in my eyes when I read it. Maybe it just my mood, but most probably that's your story.

You should write more often :)
