Deewani series-
SomethingJustLikeThis
Finishing off my major gig,I went backstage leaving the crowd to cheer for other band members.This gig was a utter success,i should have felt relieved or even satisfied but as much i tried to stay positive there's one thing always pinching my heart.Omkara.Its been more than week since i've met him or tried to knock some sense into him.Still no contact with him,I don't think he even listened to me properly.No wonder here.
Admist all my thinking process ,i almost missed the person who was leaning on the exit door.I saw him inspecting me from top to bottom.My jeans more ripped off than usual, my leather jacket and off course no one can miss the blue-green highlight i got. But why is he here was more important question.His steady gaze was making me feel more conscious than ever.Ahh I can smell trouble.
"Done checking me out?'"
I snickered ,successfully gaining his attention.It was rather my pathetic attempt to avoid his penetrating gaze.After my previous incident I don't think I can look at him ever again,I have embarrassed myself enough to last a life time.
"Is there anything to check out"
He countered back appearing all amused.I think my jaw must have hit the floor by now ,for a moment he looked exactly like the old Omkara and to notice his hair were also open.
"Jerk"
I snapped at him.Who he think he is?.I might have gone soft for him earlier but I am not the girl to take insults ,I think he has forgotten that.
"Aww you are still the same.I thought you might have changed since you gave me a hearty sunrise lecture last time"
He cooed at me ,infuriating me to no end.I don't know what it is but there was a plausible change in his attitude,he didn't seem as stiff as last time.
"I'm now repaying you"
"Huh!"
I couldn't understand what he is trying to do.Repaying me.That's absurd.How will he repay me ,by buying some gift or something.Huh.That cheeky guy.But it does feel good to see him smile ,even if it is a tiny weeny smile, just a curve.
"I thought about what you said .I couldn't relate to it"
He downright slammed me with his words.His motives seems clearer now ,he came here to criticize me.That's how he repays!!
"Why do i need to find a sunrise, What if sunrise is too far.?"
His interjections seemed to be valid and as much i don't want to agree with him,his questions definitely are making more sense.
"Why darkness or night is a metaphor for bad times.It shouldn't be.Maybe I like darkness much more than glaring light.Sunrise takes way too much time to come around.I don't need to find my own sunrise ,i can happily live in dark"
He wasn't looking at me, his eyes were glazed at something behind me.I hurts to know that he didn't want to get away from darkness, he likes to seek shelter in dark.But i understand his views, he has lived so much in the dark that he even refuse to acknowledge light rays.For him sunrise is a mere illusion of happy times and darkness is the reality of his life.But that would also mean,its our end and we weren't even together to begin with.
"Then why are you here? I think you have repayed me enough with that explanation.There is not much left here"
I murmered dejectedly.His amused face was making me angry,its like he was purposely provoking me.
"Ahh you are so infuriating"
I rebuked,glaring at him.Which earned me a hearty laugh from him.This guy is really confusing me,What is he upto?.
"Green suits you"
He pointed towards the highlight that colored the streak of my hair.Although this feels like a compliment but I am sure it isn't ,he always wraps compliments into some mean words.So i waited for him to say something more.
"But isn't paint supposed to be on canvas not on hair ?"
Ahh see that was what i was waiting for.
"It is but that's just plain and boring like you"
I countered back at him.It gives me thrill for some unknown reasons.
"Comeon ,just go from here,there is nothing left to discuss"
I asserted, his motives were blurred again.Is he bipolar or something.
"Well i would to complete what i was saying before you oh so rudely interrupted me"
I scoffed at it.I interrupted him,hadn't he said enough.
"What i wanted to say that I definitely don't need those rays of sun that are invisible and far away from me.Why would I wait for sunrise when i can have moon light following me everywhere i go.I would rather prefer calming moon light that glaring sun rays.I don't need to find moon anywhere,its always following me ,giving me enough light to survive"
His voice croaked a bit.His eyes never leaving mine and almost burning a hole in my soul.He looked straight at my soul.
I didn't utter a single word at his this theory.I would like to think he was talking about me here but if i say that aloud ,he would turn this inti some form of insult.I could faintly hear 'Something just like this ' playing in the background, soothing off my nerves.
"So What exactly do you want"
I finally gathered courage to ask him straight away ,without any riddles.He never said anything ,just pulled me into him by my arm.I can barely feel the weight of his hand at my back.
"Something just like this"
He murmered in my hair ,burying his face in the crook of my neck,creating a tickling sensation.
"Something just like this"
I tested it on my tongue,liking the sound of it.Throwing both my arms around his neck i embraced him back resulting him to tighten his grip on me.
"Arghh.This is turning too cheesy"
I muttered ,resting my head on his chest.He slowly pulled back and looked at me through a raised eyebrow.
"Damn You are really the same"
He whistled though the air.
"You thought I would change into some caring ,emotional chick overnight.Dude,I'm not any of that"
I bragged in a falsetto voice.Trying to appear all cocky.But then I was reminded of something very important
"Wait how are you here.Did you find out my name"
"Rudra dropped me"
"You know you can easily get my name"
I said ,curious so as to why he still don't know my name.
"I know but I am quite satisfied with deewani"
Cheeky idiot!
Hope i haven't bored you all to death!
