The Embrace

And then I see a tear roll down her eyes!!!

(Did she understand what was going on in my mind, did any of my actions make her feel that, the trip has not even started and I have ruined it….)

“Hey, what’s wrong? – HR”

(No response, what am I supposed to do? I waise bhi don’t have much experience with girls and negligible with an emotional active girl  :( )

“Hey, C’mon don’t mind the waiter, maybe he sees people of that sort so he thought we are of that kind – HR”

“You should not worry or think about it, DO NOT let what he said, get to your mind – HR”

(This is the best I think I can do, I need a smoke badly here, but she doesn’t like the smoke also)

“Yeah, I am ok, just the fact that how people think about friends is what pissed me off - Aaliya”

“Also the fact that for the first time I am sharing a room with someone I just met made me remind of my boyfriend, he was so protective and caring, that I always used to feel that I was living with another me – Aaliya”

“Why can’t all men be like him, why do people have to judge people, why don’t they mind their own work – Aaliya?”

“Cant a female, travel all by her own, can’t she share a room with a friend – Aaliya”

“You are a man urself, what do u think of this, are u also like the waiter, tell me –Aaliya”

(Shit, this has come on me, what do I answer now, if I agree with her now, I lose my chance forever, if I don’t then I am dead)

“Ok, I know you are not that kind of person, I feel safe with you but why isn’t the remaining breed like you – Aaliya”

“Is it that tough to be open minded?  - Aaliya”

“Even you must be having female friends, how do they feel – Aaliya “

“Aaliya, listen to me, I agree with your view but we can’t change the way people think, we either keep thinking of what others are thinking or we live our lives, uninterrupted and without giving any fuck about what the person next to us is thinking – HR”

“Are there less worries in our lives that we start worrying about such things – HR”

“And frankly do you think the waiter or the rickshaw wala or anyone for that matter is worth your tears –HR”

“They are people with mentality of a pit, yes garbage pit and they cannot get out of it – HR”

“Why should you even worry about it, you are here to travel, do it – HR “

“Coming back to the feeling you shared about your BF, you and he shared a special bond, which is irreplaceable, whatever mode you guys ended on, I think you should remember the best moments you shared with him – HR”

“It was after all a wonderful relation you shared and knowing you from whatever I have gathered of being with you, you do have those moments which keep you happy of the relation it was –HR”

“So just forget about all this and let’s enjoy the trip, and now that you have brought this thing out, let me assure you, you are safe with me :) -HR”

(Phew, it was a complicated dialogue baazi that I have done, hope it works)

“Ok, now I am going to get ready, in the meanwhile you gather yourself and pack your stuff up –HR”

“And don’t you dare touch the breakfast send by the scum manager, let’s go out and explore if there are any local delicacies available, after all we are here to experience and not live on the staple sandwich and chai, what say? – HR”

“Hmmm, you are right, I over reacted :) - Aaliya”

“Now do get ready will ya ? – Aaliya”

“Yo, m off – HR”

“Hey, listen – Aaliya”

(Now what, I am done with the best I could speak, now if she comes up with another point, I have nothing to say L)

“Yeah, tell me – HR”

(She is walking towards me, Oops !!! should I rush to the bathroom )

“Thanks for making me feel good and supporting me – Aaliya”

(She just hugged me, wow wow wow, Mera Jadoo Chal hi Gaya)
