Life in a Metro...!

Never before i found a ride in metro so damn interesting as today. Now a routine metro ride to office and back forth made me believe that switching over from my own car to public transport wasn’t a bad move at all! Where my four wheeler machine find itself in chaos soon after landing on Delhi road, metro trains goes around swiftly and smoothly. In-spite of this fact i never bothered to swirl around metros, such a fool I was.

 Metro trains are equally efficient and punctual as Mumbai’s local has ever been. They have blown a new sense of life in this choked conglomerate city. It doesn’t feel like 11 years has passed since it’s first emergence on Delhi’s skyline. Metro train has turned the capital into a city beautiful indeed. 

It was a normal day as usual in the metro. But it had to be crowded being the second day of the week. Number of travelling heads recedes as the week recedes to it’s end. Boarding from the very first station makes sure that you get a sitting surface to rest your tiring butt muscles and that too if you are lucky enough to grab a central seat as all nook and corners are reserved for weaker section of the society. Not to offend anyone but that’s what signage all around depicts about women and senior players. Men irrespective of body flesh and bone ratio are considered to be fittest of all to stand up till eternity except the old age mammals.

I opted for a central seat of course and soon my vision got blocked by standing people in front me hoping for a seat to get vacant miraculously. I could see vibrant personalities bulging, sulking and tapping feet around through little managed gaps. At very first sight the metro crowd gives you the stand out segregation of heads with headphones and heads without the headphones. No matter how rough or noisy the people are while boarding but the later built-in environment is always secluded, silent and self occupied one.

 I spotted a guy with nerdy specs, headphones plugged in and french cut beard scribbling on a notebook. I wondered what he was up to. Then i realized it were artistic hands at work sketching an old man sitting beside me. Soon an amazingly charming girl standing deep down on right caught my attention. She had a pile of notes in her hand and a jute bag loosely held on her shoulder. She somehow managed to glue herself to a pole and at the same time tried to skim through the notes quickly. Constant pulls and pushes by the crowd rattled her attention quite often. 

   At the end of bogey stood a lady guard with her hair nicely tucked under her baggy cap which too fell twice on stations halts. One can often find gangs of ladies standing out in corners anxiously waiting to conquer prospect seats. And couples often on the two seats zoned at the extreme ends. Everyday on my way to work I find a different mix of environment and people all desperate and tensed to reach their destination on time . The best part is that Delhi’s Metro trains fulfills their desires quite convincingly, thus bringing smile to each and everyone of us.

For me taking metro to work is turning out to be a adventurous routine with vibrant environments on all days. Riding a metro train is obviously safe and adventurous. Rest you gotta explore it for more fun trolls.

Were I your shadow, then come sunshine or moonlight, we’d be together.

Allow love to flow through you....!

  You know it's never easy to hold oneself on back-foot when his/her heart wants to leap forward. It's like drawing oneself  away from the line of flowing pool of nectar. There has to be something out of this world reason to keep you grounded even in a sweeping love storm blowing around. 

   Gushes of lovely winds were swirling around X but he remained unfazed by her utterly romantic feelings and spoken words. No doubt X had his share of feelings hidden but what was it that didn't allowed him to let them out. In a very short time he surrendered before Y and began to inhale the love air unofficially. Both flew and blew along. Smiles, jokes, pranks and distances between them began to take exciting turns now then. Intimacy grew from mere a feel to high band width nerve rattling feelings.

     This was the time when they realized how their destinies managed to weave a romantic red carpet under their feet silently. Both of them mutually agreed to walk on it but X refrained himself from waving publicly whereas Y did. Every day seemed to be a new day to explore and exploit each other. It was hard to believe about their feelings considering the fact that they were still unsure of possibility of their first meeting.

   The days became intensely long and nights grew darker than ever. Not a single hour in earth's rotation was spared unused. The comparisons between durability of technological love that they were experiencing and the real one were giving birth to unanimous fears in their hearts. Just as the feelings penetrated deeper and deeper X finally fell prey to her charm and innate feelings, thus spoke his heart out. It was X's twisted past, present and future that had kept him low so far.

     His official spoken words played a catalytic role in their passionate affair. Now things became more clearer and brighter to them. They began to feel each other more aggressively and intensively. Now love breeze around grew young and ready to take on the unpredictable times ahead.

Hearts synchronized...!

They are dealing with a rare gush of winds here…Blowing hard at one end, silent breeze at the other.

           The scenario which followed just the liking trend so far has taken a blazing lovable turn now. While X is curious to fall in Y seems to be infectious already. Skeptical about the future but eager for today is what both feels now. Stalking, hiding and revealing are generating anxious vibes in their hearts. Her smile is growing more prettier and dearly with strike of every such vibes. X is struggling hard to oscillate his attention from her to work and back forth. Her invaluable texts and calls often triggers a smiling chain reaction in him. That is what driving him through day and night now.

  It’s already 23:00 pm and time for them to connect. Initial text chat inquires about the day routine which in fact means if either of them missed his/her presence. X is little fussy about her seldom being careless and clinging on to T.V set now and then in-spite of irritation in her eyes. The situation is that he can’t afford any trouble on those beautiful eyes that have to see him someday. They both wish to leave behind virtual dates and get on to a real ones. Their eyes would have played an upbeat expressing part had it been possible for them to meet once. As of now they are highly dependent on telepathy to know if their heart is beating for the same reason. The discussion on chat goes and knock all possible doors except the one on their hearts.

     After a long conversation they hang up. But X is already deprived of sleep. He has gone insomniac and want her to follow the suit. Should he call and wake her up again or just lay back tossing up and down the bed. He has gone restless and finally calls to hear her this time. A voice call has always been a following routine after long WhatsApp chat session between them. And to his utter surprise she is dealing with the same disease. Both takes a deep dig into the feelings but X is just unprepared to deliver the ‘word’ while she seems to be more ecstatic.

    “I don’t know what’s goin on, It’s hard to breathe and sleep”, She said. Y continued to mention how special she felt being in touch with him. How kind her destiny has been by bringing this moment of togetherness. Y never knew a click on a social network would take her so far. She too couldn’t decide what actually she was into crush, infatuation or simply love. Suddenly a deep silence took over and the word sounded 'Love You'. This was it, he went dumb unable to respond. It’s unexpected arrival had numbed him. X couldn’t decide what to say, he was surprised to be on cloud nine in a moment. This is what he wanted but always had fears to reciprocate. 

    while she is quite an upbeat about the new wave whereas X is leading tortoise’s race wanting to win but fear of loosing bogs him down. It’s not that he isn’t human or his soul is heartless but he is skeptic about his unpredictable future and cursed relationships. The worst fear is if she looses her interest in him on being just formal. At least that’s what she thinks of him, yeah…just being formal! 

Wish if he could reach out to her with reciprocating words from the core of his heart. It’s only his write-ups and penned up thoughts taking guard as of now.  X really wants to be her’s and doesn’t want to loose her at any cost. His incapability of saying things is to be blamed. God! save thy boy.

She bogged him down!

Past two days had their bags filled with surprise ready to shower on either of them. Neither X nor Y knew what lies ahead. Billions text and rare calls were only their dependence to know what's brewing on the other side. Meanwhile X just joined a new office after 5 days of rest after his Lasik surgery shunning doctor's advice. 

Travelling in underground, plunging deep into work, say only for while, kept him busy which drastically reduced the virtual time they used to have together.  But it wasn't easy to bog X down except her puzzled thoughts. Y was always on his mind no matter how much he pretended to be deeply in love with his hustle-bustle office routine. It was her smile, her blowing hair, her silly talks, her profile pics on popular social network that ruled him these days. In no time she turned his undisputed princess but none of them was ready to say the word. 

Maybe future insecurity or past cruelty took over or was it they were immature to judge the extent of infatuation. Maybe it was insanity hovering around them. Then the unexpected happened. X's heart slipped one more time to find it's missing beats over Y. His heart overruled his mind's decision to stick to the line. A big flare from his side had already reached on the other side by now. Guess, Y knew it was coming. Yet they were still unaware about the violins playing behind them. Naah... is it! 

The 'word' was still left unspoken. Perhaps that's the reason behind mysterious vibes generation. The situation is quite tricky and puzzled. Will they give it a shot or just let it fade away. Anyways, whatever be the conclusion but it is quite evident that Y managed to bog X down!

8 Loved his slender frame and prominent nose.  She loved how he always stood up tall and never slouched and was never afraid to lead the way for the rest.  1 loved her for her curves and the bravery that came in embracing the shape she was born with.  He loved the way she didn’t care what the others thought and always felt like a smile.  They left the Helena Downs together, bold in the leap where the others stuck and settled.  They’d all heard the rumor of the last time someone left, the legend of 10 and how he too took a chance, but finally found his way back, never feeling quite the same, never having the same sparkle or shine. Still they went.  1 and 8 and they’ve not been seen since.

Yes! She finally sounded!

  Yeah! that's right Y finally asked X to call. For a moment X couldn't believe that he was about to hear her. After all crappy talks on WhatsApp it was time to see if her voice had any uniqueness as her smile and charm does. It didn't felt as if the acquaintance is newly born but appeared to be an innate feeling instead.

Yeah yeah, Y Of course is just a friend and that too from X's very nascent schooldays. To reckon with she was an year junior to Y in his earliest boarding days. X hardly knew her. Some mutual friends and the school community page was the only strings left attached. It was so surprising for him to bump into her online after a gap of 15 years! Yes, you heard it right.

Just a week had past with re-bonding. So, when X called her she sounded like a queen of melancholy chords. Her sweet wizardly voice carved his heart out for a moment. X just kept his nerves and turned into an inborn listener totally contradicting the blame which his friends used to put on him. They started with discussing current hiccups of our own life and what they have been through in the past. She too treated X as close person with whom she is comfortable to share any sort of issues. It felt as if they were walking together on a beautiful deserted lane. Though Y had countless mood-swings varying on the topic of discussions but at the end he managed to bring a hearty smile to her with my damn god-men-stereotype lines. Though he hate being one.

Guess, this conversation might have tied few more strings between them and X hopes the bond grows tighter and stronger with time.

P.S. Here girl is referred as 'Y' & boy as 'X'

Tumblr day one!

Ah! finally I'm here to blog something. Wanted to be on a blog writing spree since ages but my unconventional attitude to stick to one social network at a time never gave space to nonsense notions to lend a hand to blog. And well, what a time to begin with. Been bedridden from three days now in a 'NEO- Matrix' renowned avatar with deep darkness all around. The only difference between him and me is that he got to perform deadly stunts against rising machines now and then, while I just have dark black-blind glass to wear only to stare at random figures on the wall. The reason behind this long lay-back is my recent laser surgery for eyes. Yes! now I am ready to see and feel a brighter world around. And of course, how can i miss on beautiful girls around who can be sensed from much farther distance now. It seems as if everyone and everything around is wrapped under a high definition blanket.
