May be not if ..



"May be" I whispered

"May be not" 

"Hmm...I would like to know why may be and why may be not"

"Am I not handsome? Or you have a boyfriend?" He giggled

"It's not like that, it's just that I am not interested" I lied

"What? You mean I am not interesting?" He asked 

"No! No! Don't get me wrong!"  I said

"Then?" He asked again

"You know, guys like you are not interested in average girls. Somehow, you seem interested in those wannabe pomp and show type girls" I said

"According to my observation, I have seen beautiful girls settling for nerd, geek type life partners. So what should I say about them?" He asked, staring at me, asking for a good explanation.

"Well, you must have, I dont disagree with you. But tell me if a simple girl asks you out, would you say yes?" I asked

He didn't reply. 

His silence was disappointing to me. I was clearly right. All my hopes and dreams were shattered at once. Now I didn't want to stand with him, even for a minute.

Without bidding adieu, I slowly walked a little until...

"Wait. Where are you going? " He asked, appearing perplexed.

"You didn't give an answer and that is why I said may be not" I mumbled



He came forward, grabbed my hand, pulled me closer and said,

"You wanna know why I dated gorgeous, beautiful girls? I'll tell you why, I dated them not for social status, money or for any selfish motive.  

I went out with them because I need a partner, a life partner who listens to me, feels my heart. 

Her heart tunes with my rhythm. When I call her, I share with her my daily routine, what happened, what didn't. 

And its not that simple girls are unattractive but they are hard to catch, just like you."

"Why?" I asked, feeling baffled.

"Because you are innocent, sensitive like a mimosa plant, I'll touch you and you would just droop and close yourself until you feel you are unharmed."

"So that means I'll never find guys like you?" I asked in pain

"Not exactly, you deserve someone who looks into your eyes and says, 

'you are the woman of my life' He said

'But I want to be your woman!!!'  My mind said, withholding my tongue from speaking the truth.

"You are right" I said

"Don't be sad, I am just cautioning you to stay away from guys like me who can hurt you" He said

"In that case, I thank you for having concern for me" I said

"Your welcome" He smirked

"Acha,listen" 

"Hmm.." I said

"I think we can be great friends" He said smiling

"I don't think so" I said, rejecting his thought.

"Why?" He asked

"We dont know each other at all" I said

"Then let's know each other" He said

He smiled at me with a mischievous grin, I nodded to his hand of friendship though my heart frowned with this gesture. It quarreled with my mind. But my mind complained it knows best. It opined that being friends could begin the next stage where a little spark would have faded within months.


After all, I was in search of love and he in search of a soulmate.

Unfailing Outlook

While you have dreams in your vision to fulfill them,you also see on the other hand how people are living their life. The kind of life you too are dreaming at the moment. Someone's a doctor, musician, singer, astronaut, engineer, architect etc.Perhaps every individual lives up to their dreams as without dreams reality hits us hard.   To live your dream you need to have an ambition,an aim,strength to resist trials and tribulations,undivided focus and hard work.  And all this comes with a cost - Time! Time which keeps ticking at every mini second Time that doesn't stop Time which is the present Time that guides you to make or break your life. Like the wrist watch on your hand completes your style,the same way the time is a constant reminder to you to walk on the pedestal or you'll get hit by a car. But at times,we fail,we feel let down due to circumstances and sometimes hard luck. Whatever the issue of concern may be but it's really important to ha...

You & I

We both were enjoying the sunset on the beach.He t ook interest in the sandcastles I made . I looked at him in a childish way.  He said,"This is why I fell in love with you"  I gently laughed as he spoke. Again, he flattered me, saying,"What? I am serious Naina!"  "Ok, fine! When did I say you were fooling around" I chuckled The innocent look on his face made me laugh harder.I couldn't resist that moment and pulled his cheeks.He was taken aback by my sudden response. "What are you doing? It hurts!" He said " Is it so ? Then forget it, from now on wards I 'll never pull your cheeks" I mocked "Hey! Don't be mad, I like it when you do that but next time do it softly" He said After few minutes, he looked at me, his forehead display ed fine lines of tension. I knew he was about to speak something urgent. "Jokes apart" "Naina,their is something I want you to know" he prompt...

Remoulding one's personality

The calendar has been replaced,the year and also the dates but what specifically hasn't changed is the way we look our lives.On the New year's eve we all spend our time thinking that as soon as the new year begins we will change our routine,our schedule,in fact everything. On the first day,not to doubt,everyone sure does make effort to make it feel as if we have changed everything or trying to just mold few things but actually nothing changes except the calendar,the festivals and holidays. You go out of your home and as you look across the streets ,it can be clearly observed that the enthusiasm has waned and people are back to their daily regime. Nothing has changed. And surely,it is impossible to see change within a day.What important is not whether things have changed or you must make a change to feel exclusively that you have welcomed new year.The matter of fact should be whether we are trying to transform our lives or not. Why do we have to do that? Because last...
