Swayam was sitting in his room thinking about Sharon. He had seen her dancing in the auditorium blindfolded never missing a beat for the very first time. He was lost . . . Lost in her moves. . .Lost in the world she presented in front of him with her dance. Never ever in his life he had seen someone dancing so flawlessly. . .Watching her dance he understood for the first time what it meant when people said Dance is the Celebration of Life. . .He was mesmerized with her to the extent that he finally decided to dance again. . . Dance. . . His passion which he suppressed long back for no particular reason. Sharon was his inspiration when it came to dance. He could watch her dance forever and not get tired. But then a completely different side of Sharon surfaced in front of him- The Dazzler Sharon. . . He was shocked to see the Swan of Stage turning into a bitch on ground. He respected and loved her as a dancer but other than that they both really didn't care about each other. They were always on opposite sides and that is what made it much more difficult for him to understand her love for him. . . But then what he saw in the rehearsal hall, for the first time he felt confused.
" Can there be really an alternative side to Sharon?"
*****************
"Shit! Why the hell it isn't getting on???" Damn It!" Swayam tried to turn on his laptop for the umpteenth time now in last half an hour but in vain.
Sharon entered the rehearsal hall to find an irritating Swayam hitting his laptop. She moved towards him when he got up in experasation causing unknowingly Sharon to fall with his sudden action. . . But he held her in time just before she touches the ground. . .Sharon held his arms tightly closing her eyes. . .Swayam stared at her innocent expression and smiled lightly. . .
"Don't worry! You are fine" Swayam said looking at her.
Sharon opened her eyes slowly and looked into his eyes. . .How she wished she could see herself in those eyes. . .
"All thanks to you" She replied and lowered her eyes and Swayam realized their position and straightened her on her feet. After a moment of awkward silence Sharon broke the ice. . .
"What happened?"
"What happened????" Swayam asked confused.
Sharon suppesred a smile at his cuteness and said "You were a bit irritated when I entered. . .Cursing your laptop"
"Oh oh. . .Oh yes that. . . Well actually my laptop has hanged and It just not getting turned on. . .And I gotta send a mail immediately! I don't understand what's wrong with this machine"
And that's it?? Well you can use mine" Sharon said smiling.
"Are you sure?"
"Oh yes. . .I need to leave for VP sir's cabin now. . .See ya!" Sharon said handing over her laptop o Swayam.
Swayam sat with Sharon's laptop . . . Too unsure of using it or not. But he had to send the mail so he decided to go on.
He opened the laptop and it turned on his eyes came out of its sockets . . . Never ever in his dreams he could imagine what he saw . . .His picture as her screen wallpaper. . . His mouth hung open touching the ground . . . He couldn't believe his eyes . . . Sharon Rai Prakash has his photo as her wallpaper. He shut the laptop at once going all breathless in the moment and kept it back on its place. He took his belongings and rushed out of the rehearsal hall too numb to react.
*****************
"So Sharon actually love me like crazy????My picture as her wallpaper . . . Oh Lord!" Swayam was talking to himself sitting o the terrace.
He thought about whatever had happened in the last one week between him and Sharon. Her confession, his rejection, her vulnerability, his confusion and now this. . . Suddenly his lips played faded smile thinking about all of it. Maybe he also was enjoying in a teeny weenie part of his heart.
"What? Really? What Nonsense! Keep your thoughts straight Dude" Swayam scolded his heart.
"Maybe she loved him crazily but he can never be with a girl who is so mean, who doesn't know how to give respect to others and who judge people by their status. . . Sharon Rai Prakash can never be the girl for Swayam Shekhawat. Not in this life. Ever." That is what his mind told him as his heart sat back relaxed smirking at its stupidity.
