Woh Lamhe!

Sitting in front of my laptop i tried hard to
concentrate. It was a class on Business analytics. 4
weeks had gone since this has started but i had not
even installed the required software for it. Came back
home totally exhausted and covered with snow. I used
to listen to music whenever it rained back home. It
sure is not possible here as all i get is the white
flakes floating in the air and unwilling to settle.
They are not willing to accept that they are out of
the clouds and have to hit the ground. Concentrating
hard on one single flake I see it being hit by many
others before it settles. I am watching all this from
my window sipping on a coffee and my laptop is playing
one of the borrowed mp3 cd. Surprises are the best
when they come least expected. One of my favourite
song started and I turned and looked at my laptop as
if it were a mind reader and had played the song that
i had to hear now. A romance song mixed with the sound
of thunder and rain droplets falling. I smiled..
Closed my eyes and everything around me had changed.
The first time i listened to this song was when I
was talking to her online ..carefully typing every
word of my chat and enjoying more the few words of
reply i got from her. Volume had been full in my
earphone and this had been the only song enqued in
winamp. Every line she typed I read it twice and it
gave me different meaning. It was the first time I was
talking to her after I had admitted i liked her but I
was convinced that she liked me too but its not going
to work out for various other reasons. Should i feel
happy or sad. I dint know. It was already late in the
night and i realised my office was deserted. Said a
bye and took a coffee with me to my smoking lounge. It
was then i realised that It was pouring outside and
people had left because of the rain. I smoked and got
totally drenched in the rain as I went back home and
listened to the whole song again. It was so much
different this time. Opening my eyes I still see those
flakes fighting to stay up in the air. Its such a
strange feel of looking at a mirror. I could see
myself as one of those flakes unwilling to accept the
reality. I still sit and wonder if she really had said
a no or if my english was so bad that i interpreted it
that way or may be reading every line twice had taken
me off my senses. Now I am in the other part of the
world and this strange coincidence had bought a flash
of my favourite moment. The same coffee cup.. the same
song and the same water droplets outside. The
cigarette was missing. Now you know where i am heading
next.

Woh Lamhe!! (Those Moments!!)
