An ‘Ode’ to
Knock Knock……somebody knocked…
I opened the door and was seriously shocked….
To see the one who came in my life….
Long time ago…. she would have been my wife….
“It’s been so many hours….” I said
“Stupid! It’s been so many years….” She said
“Come in”, I said hastily…
“Of course”, she said nastily…
I was speechless when she was so comfortable….
And kept idiotically a glass of water in front of her on the table….
“How are you”, she said…..
“I am fine”…I was a bit red…
“So….?”, she exclaimed…..
“So….”, I explained…..
“Do u remember the days we spent?”
How can I forget….every moment I meant….
“You know what”…we both said together…..
And then a pin drop silence for both of us to bother…..
“See…..still our wavelengths match…”
Amusingly she looked at my hand and said, “Nice watch.”
Again I was speechless since there was nothing to say….
And she was enjoying my reactions whatever the way…
Then I asked if she wanted some tea…..
“Don’t bother sweetheart”,….she said with an aggressive plea….
I was being challenged by her appealing words….
But then I realized I was least attracted….to-wards……
“How come you are here?”….I was trying to be formal….
“To give you something back”….she was quite normal……
And she gave me a card in which…..
There was her name going to get wedded to another name which was quite rich…..
Suddenly I was more than happy…to see her in disbelief….
But I tried to show I was not…to make her feel relief…
Then she got up and said, “I must go its too late…”
And now I was very aggressive while saying, “Its okay you can wait….”
But she went to the door without even having a cup of coffee….
I then held her hand…she turned…waited… but received just my smile that was miserably fluffy…..
And all of nowhere she hugged me and kissed on my cheek without uttering a single word
And I was once again feeling like on the top of the world……
She was in tears and said, “I really miss you…..”
Then she opened the door to find ‘THE beautiful lady’ outside and screamed,” Oh my god you????”
She looked at me with some unknown expressions….which showed something like she was much convincingly worried….
And then I bloated, “Yeah you got me right, I am married.”
