Imagining of the imaginary


There's a girl who stays hundreds of mile away from this guy. No, they have never met, rather, never met the way which can be considered as 'met'. I mean the difference is between "meeting" and "coming across".
They gained acquaintance with each other gradually over phone (don't ask how did they get each others number. I don't know the answer :x)
Below is a conversation that took over one of the "Man's most indispensable invention" - small text message; in short sms.
Lets try to find out how people can travel to distant imaginary places in a (romantic!!!) journey.
Don't ask me whether this conversation actually took place or whether the guy or the girl exists. You know, you will always find them and conversations alike, every now and then, everywhere and anywhere!!!
So, lets proceed.

His SMS: Shall we go far a walk?
Her Reply: Let's go...but where?

Him: There's a small path westward from the main road out of the town. The road passes through the woods. A 2 miles walk through it will lead us to the lake of emotions. We can walk on the path encircling the lake and then may sit under the tree that bears the fruit of profound happiness. If it gets dark, we may lie down on the grass and look up towards the sky looking for nothing. I shall breathe the air full of aroma of nature blending with urs. I'll breathe deep and the air will touch my soul. And then, I'll feel u.

Her: The place sounds interesting and amazing...even I can feel myself to be there...and I'm looking for u now...standing alone in that lonely road..where r u?.. I'm waiting

Him: Right here. Look behind. I'm holding ur hand! Turn around!!!

Her: Huh! u scared me!!! But I can't see the lake from here...is it far?? Instead of walking, feeling like running in the woods.

Him: Why run? 2 miles is a good distance. U can't see it from here. Lets walk slowly, enjoying every bit of the thick woods beside the path. Can u listen to the distant song of that unknown bird? Hey! It started to to drizzle! Can u feel it?

Her: Yeah! cn hear the sound..cn feel the breeze..cn smell the earth nw..hv u been to this place b4 also? waiting to see the lake!!! Its gonna look fascinating.. raindrops and ripples.

Him: No, I've just heard of the place. Was waiting for the right partner to accompany. I've found u now. The sky is full of cloud. It seems its going to rain hard after sometime. I can see the water droplets on ur skin. I see it all over ur face! The lake is just a few meters away. Come, hold my hand. Lets RUN!

Her: Its getting dark now..things around me appearing in a different way.. each and evey sound getting so clear to my ears.. even our heartbeats after running 4 so long...

Him: There's a machaan beside the lake. Lets sit down thee. Since the rain has started, its better there.Lets watch the pouring raindrops and the ripples. Would u mind keeping your arm around my shoulders and myself wrapping your waist with my arms while we r sitting side by side. I want u to rest ur head on my shoulders.

Him: What happened? Are u asleep? The rain has stopped. The sky is clear now. See the sun setting. Wake up dear. Its getting cold. We won't be able to return till morning.!! Shall we arrange for some fire?

Her: Oh! I didn't realise wen i fell asleep, sitting beside u resting on ur shoulders, watching those ripples.. was a warm feeling.. bt feeling cold now..n m hungry also.

Him: Sorry. I went to the woods to collect some firewood. It had rained na. So,it took some time to search out somewhat dry wood. Look, I got some fruits too. I guess its good. I had some and I'm alive. So, I suppose its edible. And thanks God, I'm carrying the vodka too. Have a little. It'll keep u warm. I've put on the fire too. Lets sit near it. Do u see the reflection of the moon on the water? Lovely it is, na? And the stars blinking. The sound of the jungle, the crickets and other species. Its so soothing. Sitting with your own self in this ambiance. Its like merging of souls.

Her: Its really nice...things looking so pleasant around..the moon n stars dancing on their tunes, water glowing with pride like never before..is it really happening or am I a bit high now?

Him: its really happening and the alcohol is accelerating the pleasure. Do u want me to try and catch some fish? We can roast a few. Its an amazing combination na? The heat of the fire (inner and outer) and the chilling breeze. I want to inhale ur breath. I want to smell ur skin from a closer distance.

Her: Hmm! I wud like to have fish...but take care of urself while catching fish...u enjoy ur drink n i'll enjoy my fish...fragrance that u can smell is from outside nt from me...


Alas the guy had slept, waking up in the morning only to discover another sms :

Her: Someone went to sleep! Wat will I do alone sitting next 2 d bonfire...lookin up at the sky.. wake up!!!

The dream was incomplete. But one can still cherish the virtual trip!
I understand that its an abrupt ending!!! Well...what can I say? Errr...uhmmm...well... YOU can write a proper ending..the way you would like this dream to end (or continue!!!). Awaiting your comments!!!

"Epitome of Love - My Friends"

I was in white & blue,
And the day was hard too,
Met this girl who stratched my notebook,
When, first time i went to the school.

Ne'er she said, "I'm sorry",
But her ways made me realise,
that she felt so guilty!

Games we played,
Bench we shared,
I started to admire her
NOW as my friend.

Without much to my notice,
the new joinee in class three was novice,
the guy reserved a seat
though i ne'er took it,
my new friend had to stand
before that seat for she was
ne'er allowed to sit on it.

Games we played,
Pepsi cans we shared,
I started to admire MALO RUMI,
Now, as my TRUE friends.

So dark was that dawn,
Connived on wall by some moron,
Trust our patience,
made us stronger as friends.

Climates changed,

Surroundings changed,

Places changed,

Not our heart,

Not our feelings,

Neither our friendship...

That's how i define -

"EPITOME OF LOVE - MY FRIENDS"

Lets begin

My memory is a bit weak. So, I don't really remember whether I'd ever exploded bombs or whether I was so expressive regarding my fondness for Ladies :)!!!(Every straight guy is, needless to say). So, I'm not sure whether these two things are Soma's fiction or not!!! Anyways, these are immaterial as on date; and that is why we can ignore it. But still this paragraph is important coz I want to reinforce the trust Amrita has on me!!! (I've never known Love till I Loved u dear!!!). Lets go ahead.
Soma Das, the chartered accountant of Deloitte Haskins & Sells. We are on our 16th year of acquaintance which I don't remember (Or never realised) turned into what people call friendship. Till class 12, many of us were together. Coming to school everyday, meeting each other everyday...it was easygoing, it was fun, it was the best period in our lives. But, it was after that golden period of life, things changed. People moved out in search of their dreams. Very few took the pain to keep in touch. And between these few people who took this pain, developed a very strong bond. They could go back to the golden period while meeting, talking and remembering each other. And in my life, its Soma who responded very well. Always keeping in touch. Always planning out something new to rejuvenate our network of classmates. Recently, she is the one who is  trying to organise the reunion, all alone by herself. Its very difficult to guess from where does she get this pills of high energy!!
She is someone who is actually doing everything possible to fulfill her desires in life. Synthesizer, Guitar and now Dance. And that too the one who is a chartered accountant. A very rare combination.
And it was her Idea to open this blog!!! In fact she wanted to open a private hosted site. But eventually realized that our names are not yet big enough for that.
And here it is. The blog is ready. Hope that eventually, we will be able to add masala in the site and we all will enjoy reading and commenting.
Good Luck.

Asi & I

I never wanted to write the first post on this blog!! (plz don't ask me why)
This could be little boring, but i'd like to give a small intro of Asi and I.
"Asi"..as all of my school friends' address him...is Mr. Asitav Sen....a great friend of mine, whom i could always trust (anyday...anytime). A LOT mischievous and full of CRANKY ideas who EXPLODED three 'chocolate bombs' (along with other schoolmates) in gents' washroom in school in the year 2002, is working with "TELCO CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT CO. LTD." as Assistant Manager (Sales).
A guy who has always been so fond of young ladies trying to impress them, right from class VI..or even before, could finally, with his electrifying attitude, mellow the heart of a gracious lady
AMRITA DEB.

Well.... now that i have written so much about Asi....time to read about me :)

I...
settling transactions,
going through verifications,
waiting for approvals and modifications,
am working with DELOITTE HASKINS & SELLS (KOL) as Assitant Manager.
Much without justification,
waiting for some simplification,
trying to head on life
with quite appropriation,
want her life to change its DIRECTION!!
