That Day

Prologue

It was almost midnight, when Raghav thought that now it was bit too late and now everyone would be asleep and now the time was right to meet her. He reached her building and slowly climbed the pipe, it was difficult but due to his regular mountaineering it was the job of his left hand. But while climbing, he felt little shiver in the pipe and as a flex looked up to find the reason for it, and to his horror he saw someone getting down from the same pipe and from her balcony too!

He first thought to wait but when the person came too close to him, he hurriedly climbed down but the other person was bit too fast, it looked that this person was actually falling and not climbing down any more. Raghav's feet touched the ground but no sooner than he touched the ground that other person fell in his arms taking them both to ground. Raghav was too shocked to say anything. He kept on looking at this other person when to his surprise, he took his hood off his face revealing a very beautiful and innocent face, and thus revealing her feminity. Raghav was lost in her, while she was busy picking up her stuff and gathering her belongings.

She finally looked at him irritated and tried to cross him without saying anything. And then passed him, and started looking for the taxi. When for few seconds she got no sign of any taxi she turned around and saw him still standing at same point where she had left him and walked towards him.

"Hey!" she called him.

He looked to his left and then his right and pointed towards his chest and asked if she was calling him.

She sighed implying that she is bored of this action. And then came close to him.

"Yes! I am talking to you. Would you help me?" She asked straight-forward.

He looked at her amused, amused at her audacity with which she was ordering him.

"Hey! Excuse me! I am talking to you. I will pay you for your help." She said taking out some money from her bag and offered him.

He looked at the notes and silently took the notes and nodded implying that he would help her. He brought his bike and asked her to hop on.

While she settled on the bike, she said, "Take me to the airport, fast." And then clutched his jacket as he ignited engine and zoomed towards the airport speedily.

The ride was quite and he kept looking at her through the bike mirror. Her face was now showing the expression of fright due to high speed but he didn't slow down. He felt nice of her holding him like her life was depending on it.

After a 20 minute ride they finally reached the airport and she hurriedly got off and clutched her all belongings and moved towards the entry without saying anything or even once looking at him. He felt a pinch at her behaviour after all he had helped her. She entered the building and he sighed and turned to go back, when a hand held his left shoulder and he turned to find her standing, and panting with a sweet smile.

"I forgot to say , Thank-you." And smiled.

He looked at her and returned the smile and nodded in acknowledgement. When she turned to go mouthing a Bye', he held her palm quickly and she turned to look at him questionably.

"I just wanted to know the name of the girl I helped." He said.

She smiled and said, "Sure, I am Kalpana."

He left her hand and watched her disappearing again in the building. And then he again started his bike and zoomed off in the darkness.

5 years later...

It was already nine, and he knew he was late to get home, his busy life had taken toil on him but still he grew up from being a lover boy to a full-fledged businessman. He had just been freed from the meeting and thought that then it would be good to go home otherwise once again he had to listen to the bickering of his mother about marriage. For right then he felt his only aim was to become the best in the field of business and nothing else.

Though just five years had passed but still everyone could see a great change in him, he was no more a person of fun-loving personality but a person who would bring terror and seriousness at his arrival. He was no more the boy who would climb up the pipe just to meet his lover but now he was a man who was best in whatever he did and he hardly had any time for the flicks that five years ago defined him. Only Sammy, remained his friend as Raghav went under change.

No one knew what happened five years ago which changed him. Like it turned his life upside down.
