Life Is Beautiful - 11

Hi Bala,

I don’t remember writing a letter to anyone and so I don’t know how to start with or end it up. I just wanted to say I would certainly miss you so much in these holidays and I think you would miss me too. But I don’t want you to miss me, so I have written ‘Good Morning’ for all the 30 days and leaving the pages empty henceforth. You just fill it up only those dates you miss me and give it to me on the first day in our final year. Keep in touch. priyayours07@gmail.com

Yours

Priya

I was quite happy with that last line rather the filling up process for 30 days. It was as simple for me to give a chat request for the mail id. There would certainly be no home without an internet connection and so I thought we could develop through our friendship within this one month time. I opened my mail box every morning cheerfully but ended up little sad without any response. I usually run my mouse cursor over her name in my chat box. It would say “priyayours07@gmail.com - Invited”

I was little worried for the first few days. I don’t have any other means to contact her too. Sometimes I think, “Why do I need to contact her? Why do I often feel like talking to her? Am I doing anything wrong? I do certainly not love her. But sometimes I feel stupid missing her. Why is that so? Is she that much special?” May be she is the only one I know in my class now. I don’t have anyone to wish, share and care.

It was New-year eve and if I were in my old college I would have certainly be engaged myself with a small party with my friends. Here I have no one and my dad was out of town too. I was sitting all alone with my system. I could read mails – but I have no one to send one, I was available online in chat – but no one to ping! All those social networks were filled with New-year wishes but I was not satisfied even with a single one. Nothing seems special like a wish from the expected ones but in an unexpected way. Even if she is not interested to wish or accept the request, I can do it!

Started typing a mail for the New-year,

Hi Priya,

Guess you were busy with your own friends, party and stuffs. I don’t want to disturb or take away those fun filled moments from you. Just a simple wish for the New-year you can add this along with your long tail of wishes. Even I had many wishes but nothing seemed so special. May be I am waiting for a special one on this special occasion.

With love forever,
Bala

I completed typing but was waiting very eagerly to click the ‘send’ button exactly when my hall clock tongs the 12MN for the New-Year. I have never wished anyone so far but had nearly 5 to 10 calls missed every New-Year. I thought I lost most people just for my sleep and wondered now what if I have taken up those calls or at least replied them back in morning. This part is called ‘regretting’ and I was sure that Priya will feel the same for the next New-Year! I was little tired of waiting and so fell asleep very soon.

The next morning my first thought was to open the mail box and look for any mails. I was much happy with the preview inbox which showed there was one unread mail in my mail box!

“I started this New Year with a success story and I am happy to the core!” I even thought of shouting and say to this whole world I am happy again!
