She was standing right in front the coffin. She seemed to be the bravest amongst all there and according to me amongst all the Londoners. She had the courage to stand there and speak to everyone. When everyone was crying or feeling sad, she had a smile on her face. The cute smile he always wanted to be on her face.
She looked at everyone with a drop of tear trickling down her cheek. She saw everyone so sad and some in the front crying. Finally she spoke up-
"We don't need to cry. We cannot. We have to show him that he made us smile all throughout and so even after he left we will smile. Not for ourselves but this time for him."
Everyone saw the courageous girl in front of them. Almost all of them were comparing themselves with her courage and found that they were nowhere near her. She continued,
"Sirius Black, his favorite movie's character, once said, The ones you love never truly leave you. They are always with us, In here'." She pointed at her heart.
"I am not acting brave today but I am acting what he would want me to do today. We used to fight so much, always but our egos weren't this big that we couldn't apologise. Would you all want to hear a small story?" everyone nodded.
"Well, this is OUR story. We met first in a caf. I know most stories begin in a caf but OURS IS DIFFERENT.
*FB*
She just walked in the caf, her favorite caf. She used to come here every time there was some problem she was facing. The owner knew her very well.
Girl- (calling the waiter) Excuse me!
The waiter saw her and understood her mood. He went to her with a cappuccino. Girl looked at the cappuccino and smiled. There was smiley on the top of the coffee made out of cream. That smiley always brought smile to her face. How did the person know her moods always?! She looked at the waiter with a confused look.
Waiter- Ma'am it's a mystery.
He smiled and left. She saw here and there and found the person she was looking for. He came and sat in front of her.
Girl- I have been expecting you only. How do you know that I was about to come?
Man- I just know.
Girl- You caf is full of mysteries.
Man- Again about the coffee, I am sure.
The girl just nodded in response.
He took out his mobile and switched on the front camera and put in front of her face. She saw the camera and gave a confused look.
Man- Your face speaks it all. Those who don't speak their heart out in order to never hurt anyone cannot hurt themselves. How? This is the answer. (Pointing out at the mobile) Anyone can tell that you are upset regarding something. Being in the third year of a medical college there might be several problems you might be having. You can share. (he said in an assuring tone)
Girl- I know I can. You are the best person I have met so far. You are really the best, Frankenstein. You assurance can alone make me feel better. To the least I get to know that I am not alone.
Man- Nisha, you started again with calling me FRANKENSTEIN. Why a giant?
Ni- Because, you are too fit for your age.
Fr- (sarcastically) What do you want? Shall I be walking with a stick? (proudly) I am too young for that.
Nisha smiled at his cuteness.
Ni- (sarcastically) Indeed you are. After all you are just 57.
Manager- (called out) Mr. Mehta, you have got a call.
Man- I have to go.
Ni- I don't understand why they call you Mr. Mehta! I mean that first of all they should not call you by name since you are their boss, the owner of this caf and even if they have to call you by name why don't they call Rudra?!
He smiled and left. Nisha had her coffee. Just then she heard Rudra making announcement.
Ru- Tonight, there is a special function. It is my grandson's birthday. I would like to invite you all to the event.
He looked at Nisha as if inviting her for the party. She smiled and nodded. Then Nisha left. She was on her way back to the hostel when she heard someone call her.
"Excuse me, Ms. Nisha!"
She turned around. There was a hot guy who was real handsome. Well this was enough for Nisha to leave to the dreamy land.
"Actually you left your Handkerchief on the table. I just saw it so ran to give it back to you. Here you go!" he gave her the handkerchief.
"How do you know me?" Nisha asked. "Frankenstein talks a lot about you." He replied. He was about to leave when Nisha called him. She was shocked. How did he know so much about her?!
"I am your Frankenstein's grandson who came yesterday from India." He replied seeing her confused expressions.
"Leaving his parents for Frankenstein?" she asked. He smiled in response.
She smiled widely and forwarded her hand, "I am Nisha Jain. And you are?" he smiled and shaked his hands with her. "Kabir Mehta! Nice to meet you." They smiled.
Ka- Though I know you had a coffee but would you like to have it with me?
Ni- (naughtily) Asking me out? (cutting him off before he could begin) I wouldn't have minded but today I am running late. I will be here at night and I think the birthday boy will be here as well. So we can have a coffee then.
She smiled and left after greeting him. Nisha was running late as she had to go to her friend's house as well for a project.
*FB ends*
That was the first time I saw him. He was nice but the best thing I saw was he looked much like Frankenstein. He had the eyes of his Grandfather. His father and mother left Frankenstein alone with nothing but a broken caf and a 2BHK house in London. Frankentsein made everything perfect by himself. Kabir came to know about the truth a day before his birthday, that too by someone else. As he told, that was the moment he packed up everything and left for London from California.
