The Intro "Which floor are you on?" she messaged. I have been waiting for her for a few minutes now. I am in the mall on some floor (I just know that it is not the ground floor), holding a bag of items that I purchased earlier. When she asked for the floor, I gave the surroundings a rough look and quickly replied "1st." But after a few seconds, I realized that I was actually on the 2nd floor. Scolding my lazy brain, I grabbed the nearby elevator and reached the first floor. So, here I am, waiting for her, the moment nearing with every passing second. I noticed that my heartbeat started racing. The calmness is slowly fading away in the light of excitement and nervousness. I planned to spend the time very efficiently once she arrived so that every second would store the memories equivalent to an hour. But my brain might have started doing that from now. I can hear nothing but my heartbeat, but it is going very slow - L..U..B..D..U..B... Then I am drawn into a movie....
Hey sista.. I used to have a wish. A wish that grew with time. A wish that grew up with me. I allowed it to grow. I thought it was not that bad. Not much to ask for. Or so I thought. I just wished for an elder sibling. Someone whom I will fight with. Whom I will approach for things. Who will be with me in bad days. I wanted to share my good news, My crush and embarrassments, Little secrets and silly banters. I wished for an elder sister - not too old, just around my age. I wished for you, sista. I looked for you in people - maybe not enough. But in the end, I couldn’t find you. Nowhere. I could not spend time with you. I could not share things with you. Maybe that’s what life is. Wishes are not always granted. Maybe it’s time to let of you. Not that I am complaining. I just want you to be a good memory. The idea of you - maybe it’s time I accepted that it’s just an idea. The idea of my first love. I will hold you dear in my memories. In these words. Is this sad? Yes. But tha...
Oh the girl who has taken the Mother Ganges name, The girl who has gathered 25 years worth of past, The life which frustrates you with highs and lows, Cross it with Sarcasm, oh girl! People say “not like this, not like that”, And they say “Nope. Not gonna happen”, They offer senseless reasons and mindless reasoning But you don’t get stuck in those loops, oh girl! The life gets washed away in time, With it’s zigzag turns; But you choose to spend the time Slowly, relaxedly and Happily, oh girl! Don’t hurry, oh girl; Don’t worry, oh girl; Don’t be sad that Old age is looming, oh girl! With the laziness, the memory loss, Knee pain and tooth pain, We all have been old Since many years, oh girl! Just forget things, oh girl; Forget yourself, oh girl; Just yawn it off, oh girl; Eat it off, oh girl. Have a feast, oh girl; With waffles, oh girl; Live long oh girl; Score a century, oh girl!
