"Kehte hain kisi
cheez ko poore shiddat se chaaho to poori kaynaat use tumse milane ki
koshish mein jutjaati hain"
It has been almost 3 years since I wrote my last
blog… Here I am sitting in front of my laptop writing this post. I don't know
why I stopped writing it at first place. Shayad koi tha nahi baat karne ko…
abhi bhi hai nahi… But all said and done Ladies and Gentleman… I AM BACK!!!
Ram Bhaiya's shop is small tea shop in BTM
layout in Bangalore. It’s just area wise small, there are hardly few things
which you don’t get over there. I was introduced to this shop by few colleagues
who live nearby. After having a lemon tea over there I was like WOWWW!!! This
is f***ing amazing… and soon I became a regular over there.
Varun calls me daily around 8 without fail for a
breakfast at Ram Bhaiya’s. I am the kind of a guy who finds it difficult to get
out of the bed, so when his call comes I am like “kyunnn Varun??? Sone de mujhe…”
So with a heavy heart and grumpy face I used to go over there… (I have been
told I have bad face when I am sleepy…) but after the first sip of lemon tea I
am at my normal.
So like every other day, Varun calls me this one
fine morning. I get up and reach… we are having our routine tea and discussing
things when I saw few people carrying bags and books. I asked him “Kya college
hai kya yahan per???” He points out the building behind us saying “Yehi toh hai…”.
“Ok…”, I said.
So now the actual story starts here… Meri Ajab
prem ki Gajab kahani… J So we started observing
people going to the college, and interestingly we found patterns… Like there is
one Chuttki… She always seems to be running late for college, though her
college is like 50 mts away from her PG. She starts running when she reaches
Ram Bhaiya’s shop. There is one North-East girl who always wears new dress and
even if it’s not sunny she will be covering her face with a notebook. God knows
why. There is one girl who has hairstyle similar to Kangana… There is a guy who
wears a tie but has his collar button open and the tie is nowhere near his
collar… Again God knows why. Style statement may be…
After seeing these people every day the same way
one day I see this girl in the between 2 girls, silent and not looking at
anyone. Boys there stare at everyone but that’s not a concern for her. She is
looking down. Her friends are talking and she just replies in between with a
word or so.
Me: Bhai!!! Achi hai ye toh… sundar sushil…
Varun: Kaun bey??
Me: Arre woh dekh na safed wali jo chup chap se
ja rahi hai…
And I saw her for the first time. Now all of a
sudden I am excited to go to Ram Bhaiya’s shop for breakfast. Every day I have
breakfast and I wait there for her to come just to have a look of that serenity
on her face which makes my day. Now weeks have gone and I look at her almost
every day. If I fail to see, Varun makes sure that he tells me when she is
coming.
She still hasn’t looked at me once. For her I don’t
even exist is what I believed.
Me: Bhai who notice nahi kar rahi…
Varun: Toh kya hua?
Me: [Sad Face] hmm…
Toh now it has been few days I haven’t seen her.
I am like “Chutti chal rahi hai kya college ki?” Varun says “Pata nahi… baaki
bhi nahi dikh rahe”
I was about to leave when we saw chuttki, kangana
and others going to college one by one.
“Bhai lagta hai timing change hogayi hai college
ki”, I said. Varun replies “Shayad haan…”
And I decided to wait… Then came my angel in her
white dress. I said “Bhai aagayi teri bhabhi…”. I was joyous after seeing her.
Now the interesting part comes here… next day as
we were running late for office and she was nowhere to be seen, we decided to
leave. I was settling the bill when all of a sudden I had a gut feeling. I felt
her presence behind me. I made a sudden turn and there she was… searching for
me in that small crowd in front of the shop and she saw me looking at her.
Varun had this huge smile on his face and told me “Yeh kya ho raha hai?? Bhai
notice kar rahi hai… Good” I was on seventh heaven and the feeling was awesome…
Something more… can’t describe it.
Toh ab kya?? Hogayi meri prem kahani ki shuruat…
ab toh bas himmat jutani hai… and baat karni hai… Ladki bhi interested bhi hai
itna toh pata chal gaya… toh Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost… J
[Hopefully To be continued…]
