when we got down from the cab all that i wanted was to be in my bed, listening to GNR or pearl-jam ..
Had a tough day at the office and the next day was all set to be worse.. so wanted to crash early.
it was already past 10 ,i was seriously sleepy.the other person with me, a co worker n a neighbor dashed to her place saying " look to ur left" .
i did not care to do that n walked on, but for some reason i turned back to take a look at what could she be pointing to .. and amidst the fog settling in i tried to comprehend a figure sitting in front of a dirty smudgy wall. There sat the dude.. n his enfield parked next to him .. i walked over to him n we set off talking. "things people do when in love struck " i thought to my self, as i gathered that he had just been waiting there to catch a glimpse of her get down from the cab n enter her adobe. initially i was unimpressed,so i tried to talk abt the bike instead, the bike was a beauty none the less.
what i noticed was that the dude was honest in being there.though the couple was very much on, these things can give so much wheels to a budding romance.A good conversation, around 20 minutes and a few confessions later ( the kinds u usually expect others to make when they are in an inebriated state) i felt sleepy no more.
though unusual of me but i felt happy and sad at the same time, happy at not being the only one with a small wannabe hero in me,happy at seeing folk around me happy (surprised my self at that too),happy at being out in the cold, happy at being tired.
and sad at still being eluded by romance.
sad to see how people rush-into things, sad to see hw people go thru frenzies of making new relationships.
though happy to have become a "bro" from "dude" for him.
