New OS: 121 Stars...

Hey Girls,

I always thought that kissing the right person was like riding the last wave of the season, feel the board under your feet that goes like the wind, the water pearl your face and eyes bathed in that blue that takes away the breath.
The last flight to somewhere between heaven and earth, with adrenaline through the roof and the only thought in my mind that resounds: it's now or never.
I always thought that riding the crest of the wave would be the last thing I did in my life.
I always thought that nothing was more important of the world than surfing.
I always thought all these things, before I met Arjun.

Arjun was different.
Arjun was blue like the sea, shining like the sun and white as innocence.
Arjun was the red of my surf suit, was as green as the grass on the beach, blue like the sky.

I met him in a summer evening, with wet hair and purple lips, because of the bathroom too long.
He, I remember, loved the bathroom at midnight.
I lay on the sand, the smell of the sea in the nose and the breeze that ruffled my hair.

- There are one hundred and twenty-whispered in my ear.
- Sorry? - Turned the eyes, and my eyes met his great blacks blue irises.
It were two infinite wells that captured every single detail, making it ever more special.
- The stars. There are one hundred and twenty-
- And how do you know? -
-I counted them, right? -
- You cannot count the stars-
- Of course you can, just have a little patience-
I looked at him doubtfully, then smiled - Arohi-
- Arjun -

Arjun was so full of a particular light, one of those breathtaking.
It was impossible not to love him, it was impossible to hate him, because he was what I had continued to breathe for many years.
He was the love, he was the play of emotions that take your word, was the perfect mix for making you fly without surfing.

In the evening that we kissed for the first time, Arjun took my hand and led me on a rock bigger than the beach.
We sat down near to one another, looking together at the sky.
It was a large expanse of yellow dots, each bigger than the other.


- Do you see that star, Arohi? -
- What? -
- The one up there, near the moon-
- Yes-
- That, Arohi, is the star-one hundred and twenty-first
- But you did not count all, tonight-
- But I know-
- And how do you do? -
- Because that's you-
I laughed - But do not be silly-
- One hundred and twenty times have you breathed Arohi, before I speak to you-
- How? -
- The first night, I counted your every breath. Each beat of your eyelashes, your every smile. One hundred and twenty times your stomach has subsided, before I speak to you, and your every breath is a star-lit
- And the one hundred and twenty-first? -
- That is the most important-
- Why? -
He come closer and laid his lips on mine.
- Because that is lit now-
- But there was already the first-
- But if you close your right eye, you turn to me and look carefully you'll see that shines more-
I followed his instructions, amused, and he, again, caught my lips with his.
Kissing him was like drinking a beer and never to be satiated, you feel the alcohol down his throat, to feel on fire, and wanting more, and again, and again.
Kiss him was like riding the latest wave of your life, and swears never to forget the emotion that you felt touching the sky with the tip of the nose.

- Hey, Arohi, make me a promise? -
- Yes-
- Whatever happens, remember that I will always be-
- But you want it happ... -
- Listen to me, Rose, swear you will not forget me. Swear that you'll love me forever, swear to me that whatever happens, you will know that I'll be your one hundred and twenty one star
- Arjun .. But -
- Arohi, Swear-
- Okay, I swear-
- I love you-
- I also do-
I hugged him, and I, unaware, I sank my face in the crook of his neck.
- There will always be a star that shines in the sky, Arohi, and I will shine for you-

Two days later, Arjun was gone forever.
Letal leukemia, doctors said.
Maybe, but I did not believe it.
Arjun knew it, he knew it was going to happen, I'm sure he knew it.
He left just in time for that oath, as the crest of the last wave of your life, sooner or later back you down, suddenly.

It's been 50 years since that day, 50 years from the time I made that promise.
I sit down, tired, on the same rock that had greeted us when we were still twenty years.
I kept my promise to him, I have been faithful.
Fear? Maybe.
What? Even to suffer, not to be honest, not really loving the one who would come in my life after him.
To replace him, definitely.
I love him. I still love him as the first day, as the second day, like the first time.

I look up at the sky, looking for the one hundred and twenty-first star.
I find it far on the edge of the sky, bright as every night when I desperately sought.
- Thanks, Arjun-

I feel a tear coming down my cheeks furrowed by time, like a drop of water from the well that returned after the end of winter.I look up to heaven a second time, but looking at every single point of light.
- Today I see fifty stars, Arjun - I whisper - fifty like the years of your absence. However, if I close my right eye, and I turn to you, I see a lot more light, you know - again, a tear falls down my face - Hello,-Arjun

And slowly, as not to disturb the stars that watch over me every night, I descend from the rock, with a faint smile on my lips.
