Rest Is Not Always History......




             He was a social media addict, like most other Professionals of his age. In a city that gives you so little time to reflect upon life, other than the time you get during traffic jams, having an active virtual world with people in in was not only the current "In" thing but rapidly turning out to be a need for people. a lot of them. and also, for him.

       Her Story was even more dynamic. Her work in a prestigious  firm ensured that she remained busy most of the times other than her lunch breaks and Mandatory ones. Most of her friends were busy uploading either honeymoon pics or baby pics on social sites, making her parents doubly ecstatic and enthusiastic about her Great Indian Wedding Plan.      

        There are times in life where everything is going about its job so rapidly and mechanical, that we often miss out on a lot of things that may have some significance of sorts. And, it was one such day, when He met her. off course in the virtual world.

       He was a techie, yet with a flair for art. She was an artist, with a flair for her work more than anything else. Initially, the only communication happened between them was about random talks, polls, updates and sharing all possible smileys. But the impact was made. More for him. He was curious, eager and looking forward to know her. He was unable to decide whether it was her way of talking, her ambitious and confident aura or HER. The only thing he was sure about that he was looking forward to know her more, and even more. Days passed, the ice was broken and so was the discomfort. He would be the one who would initiate, ask, share - in every possible way, make her smile, make her feel secured and giving a belief that genuine things often start this way, for she was oblivious of a lot of things he had to offer.

Two months down the line, things had changed to a fairly good extent. There were no excess usage of smileys, no discomfort. All he and she shared now was frequent talks, late night talks with each other. Time was slowly and steadily losing its notion during their talks. She was liking it one smile at a time, He was making it happen, one genuine move at a time. During one of their regular chat sessions - They shared what they feel and how they feel. There was no drama, ecstasy, nervous moments. Nothing of what they show in movies. All they could experience was what we simply call as genuine and honest communication with confessions straight from the heart. and That was probably enough, for her, for him, for them.

  He is still in love with her. She smiles every single moment he is around and even when he is not. And, like most other stories and tales, this has not gone anywhere ahead. Because, as they say, The "Rest is not always History....It could also be an ongoing magical phase in one's life where all that really matters is each other's genuine happiness and well being." For him, she was the passion he always desired. For her, he was the rhythm that would synchronize with her mind. Together, they are creating a present to be cherished and a future to be dreamt of!!!
