Miss She

Dear Outfit,

Know what? I cried over  his shoulders  and he hardly realized. And, when he came to know that my eyes are wet, he seemed almost so very unconcerned. You know what, I told him that I suffer form some eye trouble and so this is just the water turning out from my eyes and nothing much. Ghosh! He bought that!!

You know what Outfit, when I went to this temple with him, he went to the loo, and I said, “Alright, I’ll go and pray for a while”, he said “Okay, we’ll meet here”, we decided on meeting  point. But that’s not what I want to tell you, its that, when I was praying in the temple, I happened to shed some tears, of course I grew a bit, rather a lot sad and …… deeply sad….. then when I got up after genuflecting….. This lady bhahbi  (newly married female), was standing a bit far from me.  She came closer and asked, ” Aap ro kyu rahe the….?”(Why were you crying). She is just so sweet. She realized that I was crying…..and this person, on whose shoulder I shed some tears hardly made it out. Prachi (that gal’s name) said, ” Hum kisi ko rote nahin dekh sakte…. Aap kyu ro rahe the….?“(I can’t see anyone crying. Why were you crying?) Damn! Isn’t that so sweet Outfit? I replied,” nahin kuch nain, aise hi…” (Nah! Nothing much, just like that. )  She said, ” Kuch khaas maang rahe the bhagwaan se…..” (Were you asking something really special from God?) Oh my God!! What a beautiful soul she is…. God please keep her love life really blessed always, ALWAYS. Amen.

And hey, When I was crying over his shoulder,  then I placed an handkerchief between my forehead and his shoulder, saying, ” Tumhaari shirt geeli ho jaayegi….“( Your shirt will get wet ) And he just gave me a look !! What an irony….. To someone my tears are like…. What do I say, and to someone they will wet his shirt….. !!

Bless me and bless my world. I love you, Outfit.

Love
