I was splashing my hands helplessly in the Hussain sagar. I can’t even swim in a pond, let alone in the river. I was semiconscious when my friend brought me to the shore, I could recollect four people whose faces hided in masks beating me with the rods before I was thrown in to the river and then saved by my friend. I know they were sent by Preety's father to kill me.
My nightmare ended as my cell phone rang hard just close to my right ear and I woke up to its ‘Mothership’ ringtone but it got disconnected before I attempted to lift. I understood that it was from Preethi and she is going to come online in 10 minutes. I rushed to my friend Sree’s room for his laptop to sign in Gtalk account. As soon as I signed in the chat window popped up,
Preethi: Gud morning, sir
Me: Hi, gm Madam..
Preethi: wat time r u starting?
Me: I’ll start in an hour ..n it takes 3 hrs 2 reach hyd.
Preethi: Make sure that u’ll show up by 3 PM@ Cineplex cafe..
Me: ok..done
Preethi: U remembered na, I’ll b in white Chudidar..
Me : ya …It’s difficult to identify but I’ll try..if I cant, call me frm coin box..ok na?
Preethi: ok..ok..
Me: ok then, c u at 3 PM, sharp!!
Preethi: ok..byee..love U
Me: love U too…Bye
Preethi: bye.. wid 1000 kisses
Me: caught all…k, byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
When I was sleeping in my room in the evening, I got disturbed by my friend Sree knocking the door to call for dinner. To my surprise, he did not ask anything about my first meeting with Preethi though he was the one who advocated me to meet up. In fact, he’s the only person who knows about my 6 months love story, right from my initial chating in yahoo to our commitment for marriage without seeing each other face to face.
After some time, he assured ‘Dude, leave it.. I know she might not be as beautiful as you expected. It’s very silly to go absolutely nuts about a girl before you actually sees her, don't worry you can try for another girl'. I shrugged, didn’t say anything for a while though it seemed like he has conceived what I really sensed after looking Preethi first time @Cineplex. It’s true that I could not talk with her comfortably despite the fact that we knew each other from 6 months. It’s true that I got some strange feeling, like some repulsive force restrained me talking with her when I saw her first time. May be Sree was correct; she was not like my dream girl in her figure, looks or mien. May be he was not correct as my first impression could be deceiving!!!!!
In the next day morning I ascertained to Sree ‘ yar, your mistaken, I have the same kind of feeling towards her. I know everything about her nature, her liking and disliking also I understood her completely before I committed to her. Now, how my love on her diminishes just because she’s not so beautiful!’ (In fact she’s very fair to my shabby and crumpled face).
As I was thinking I could recall my understanding of true love
‘When u forgets yourself, deeply eliminating in someone else existence... when you sense the link between your both hearts and souls... when you are not belonged to your own’...
I realized that mine was true love and it never ends..
By the way I am Sarath , working for a multinational company in Hyderabad, just 10 miles to Preethi’s home. Now, I thank my friend Sree for giving an opportunity to express my experience of LOVE on the occasion of my 3rd successful year of ‘TRUE LOVE’.
