9th april, the mere mention of this date brought a spark, some kind of electricity in me. The incidents that took place that day are so clear, like it happened yesterday.
I was on a trip to Essel world which turned out to be one of the most memorable days of my life. How I wish I could relive that day and put things in a better way!
Before this, I used to say ki yeh sab filmon mein hota hai and stuff, but once that happened with me, I believed it. 10 in the morning, I was waiting with my brother divij, and my friend aakash, for the fairy boat to come. It was bright, morning at borivali,gorai! Finally after a long wait the boat arrived, but the wait was worth it. We saw a bunch of girls sitting behind so we went soon to catch the seats next to them before anyone else could 😉

"tujhe in ladkiyon meine se kon si wali pasand hai...?", I asked my brother.. "woh wali", my cousin said pointing to the girl even I liked! I looked at her. Her blue sleeveless top hugging her upper torso matched with perfect blue jeans, she looked OMG! She was talking to her friends and she was smiling about something.. She looked so innocent and it was then I noticed her warm, brown eyes… I had never seen such warm, beautiful eyes before.. her brown eyeliner highlighted her eyes.. I couldn't help but notice these details..

"woh wali yaar", divij said again jerking me out of the lala land I was in.
I was shocked.. he liked the same girl as I?! No this cant happen.. She was mine..
So I told him "abey chal sale mujhe bhi wahi pasand hai..." as a matter of fact!
"theek hai na yaar chod na shadi karni hai kya?!" divij said, a little offended! I didn't know her but I couldn't let anyone like her too...

@ the ticket counter, I was waiting for my turn, but I secretly wished that she'd walk in too. My turn came to go but I stayed behind because she hadn't come. Divij was constantly pestering me to go inside so I said "chal yaar woh log ka wait karte hai aane de unko phir andar chalte hai, then we can join them(join Her actually).
"no yaar lets go in warna mein ja raha hoon tum log ladki dekh ne aaye ho ya ghoomne?!" divij scolded me.. giving in, with a sad long face,I said "theek hai chalo".
We went inside divij, excited and I with a sad heart only wishing her group(precisely her) would be there. Not finding them inside, I was disappointed and I thought maybe they had gone to water kingdom which was adjacent to essel world. After what it seemed years for me, I spotted them. I pulled aakash and divij along with me to the ride they were in. after the ride, I didn't want to loose track of her. So we followed her group. We sat on the rides they sat. slowly they started realizing that we were following them, but they didn't say anything. Maybe she liked me too. But they didn't respond. I told divij that this was embarrassing and we should stop following them. It was like they went their way and we went ours.

I was a little sad. To my surprise they started following us. Wow, I thought!
The girls in her gang started staring at me. But I was only looking at her. After a long time of staring, I passed a smile to her which she returned. That moment I felt like I had won the Nobel Prize. What an achievement - She smiled!! Her smile was like ahh.. Beautiful was the only adjective that came to my mind. At the mirror house, I clashed with her, and that too hard… It was nothing less than a movie scene, where the hero and heroine walk from opposite directions and clash. I apologized immediately and she smiled and said that was okay. She got up and adjusted her hair. I noticed her hair then.. long black hair and she looked even cute when she put her hair behind. We had been clashing with that group since morning so I decided I would talk to her group. It was almost lunch time then. After lunch I told aakash and divij that I was eager to talk to them. Both of them hushed me off by saying that I was mad and they would kill us if we spoke to them. "Fattu", I replied back to them. The whole day passed by quickly, without talking to her. It was getting late and we had to return back home. While leaving, I saw her standing with her group beside the thunder ride. I shouted "bye girls" and they replied "bye" in chorus. They smiled; I smiled back and waved my hands to them. I captured her smile, in my mind turned back and left. In the night her smile and her brown eyes kept coming back as flashes in my mind.

Reality dawned – I didn't know her name. how would I find her. I got quite disturbed but somehow I slept. I tried searching for her, but I couldn't find her. Days passed; still I had no signs of her. Damn, I kicked myself mentally for letting her go. Now the mention of essel world brings this memory back. I wish I had spoken to her. I wish I had gotten to know her. I wish I could go back, and relive that and this time I would have definitely spoken to her! How I wish… Maybe it was love at first sight, or crush or infatuation or anything. I don't know. But if I had spoken to her maybe things would have been in a better way. Maybe I would have been with her now…

kuch baatein, unkahi, dil mein dabi reh jaati hain
jo kabhi tapish, kabhi khalish aur kabhi ghutan bankar
hamesha asar laati hain
isiliye jo kehna hain khulke keh do warna
yeh unkanhi yaadein bankar tamam umra tumhara peetcha karegi


sonu nigam's song rung in my ears.. Nevertheless, that memory will remain etched in my mind forever. It would never fade away. Those eyes… they were something, she was something. Maybe 'us' could have become something. I only wish I'd taken the first step. This is an interlude which will remain as a memory with me forever.

Letting her go was a mistake which left me heartbroken. So, guys voice out your thoughts. Listen to your hearts voice. It doesn't matter who approaches first. Don't let anything beautiful go.
Live, laugh, love!
