A journey was to begin in more ways than one. The tired and gentle breeze, the noise and clutter and the not so visible moon. Rushing through the crowd were two curious eyes searching for something. Silent eyes.. Yet spoke so much to evoke a pain in one's heart, to know you all!! They were Her eyes.. Like a blank white paper she was.. Blank like a cute little innocent child. white like the soothing and relaxing moon and a paper where all the colors of life found place.. She found her destination. It was S9-43. But her search was not over yet. Because she was to find something more meaningful.. So many emotions were jostling in her mind. A feeling of excitement, of an unwanted fear, of achievements and of loneliness.. She wanted to tell the world how content she was but that felling of incompleteness awakened her. While going through all these, she saw the train coming. Slowly like a python emerging from the giant tunnel engulfing everything that was coming on its way. It was the scene that has evoked the imagination of many a painters, writers, poets and prosaic! The hustle and bustle, the rush to occupy places, the shouts and the cries and then the only noise that followed-- that of a long journey..
She sighed with relief for having got her place but at the same time she knew it was going to be tough. Sitting opposite her was someone who though unfamiliar seemed familiar. She was delighted with the companionship and wanted to soothe her preoccupied mind. He was of same age as hers and had small intuitive searching eyes.. They found solace and serenity in each other's company. And shared many things.. They were going to the same place for the same cause. They did not realize the pace of the train. they wanted it that way. Slow but steady as there was so much to share, so much to know, so much to hide only to let the other find it.. He liked her sophisticated simplicity with that smile that was filling every empty corner of his heart. He did not want that journey to get complete and it was not... He wanted it to get evolved into a new journey of their life to be completed by them TOGETHER.. And maybe it will...
It was a journey in more ways than one.. And it moves on...
