In the year 2006!!

Thursday 26th Jan had to attend a friends engagement so had to be in Mumbai before 11 a.m. on Thursday!!

Tuesday: 24th Jan :Me and Hussain are talking over the phone, Hussain very casually told me not to go to Mumbai on Wednesday rather stay and be with his Mom, it was his Moms birthday on Wednesday.

Even on this day I was strictly unwell….I went in the evening at my in-laws place since it was the bday eve of my mother in law….so wished her …was assuming Wednesday ko to oofice jaoungi ….phir Mumbai …so let me wish her in the evening. Spent some time with in laws…chit chatting.

Wednesday 25th Jan ….was very very unwell , so bunked office….was to leave for Mumbai in the evening or mebbe Thursday morning gotta be there for the engagement even in my worst state….nahin to I would have lost my front two original teeth. Woke up and was completely idyllic. Elders asked me to come in the morning itself so I wont end doing a lot of journey …..so at 10:00 I decided I will be leaving by RAJ NATIONAL EXPRESS…very delighted was I too board that bus…in mean time my sister-in-law called up to ask me if I was coming along with them to attend a wedding in the night, I denied and I said I aint in a good state and I will be leaving for Mumbai in 15-20 minutes.

And I got with my packing and was all ready to leave…the bus was at 11:00, I left the house ….my cousin was to drop me on his bike. Headed towards the bus….while on the bike got to calls from My in-laws place….i could not receive since I did not notice!!! But I checked my cell in few seconds…so then tried to call up back….but could not reach them….then I felt like messaging Hussain so I messaged him “Am unwell, not at office and rite now going to Mumbai”….the message got sent and immediately I get a call from my father –in –law.

I pick up::

Father-in-law: Where are you?

Me: I am going to Mumbai…

Father-in-law: But where are you?

Me: I am going so on the way…

Father-in-law: But where???

Me: Am yet to reach the bus…on bike.

Father-in-law: Come home rite now.

Me: WHY????? ( could not get it why)

Father-in-law: Just come home rite now!!!!!!! , we have some work from you.

Me: What work ..tell me … I was like but…I am going…but whats the work tell me …what happened. (for a sec I felt is something wrong at home or I could not think of anything.)

Father-in-law: You come home…Now!!

Me: Okkkk. I am coming home.

Hung the phone…

I told taher (my cousin) to take a turn and way towards my in-laws….hmmm things were slowly resolving in my head…got a fair hint that mebbe Hussain is here….but it was very difficult to believe since every time I asked him if he was to come ….he always denied the possibility.

With my huge bag and a curious mind I entered home…my mother-in-law opened the door…my father-in-law was really too excited….with loud voice he said “We don’t like it that you go to Mumbai so often, you are not going to Mumbai, you are going to Bangalore….we have booked your flight tickets and you are going” .

I was like what happened….thoughts like…something abt marriage is pre pre pre pre poned…or what ….but my immediate subconscious mouth said “Is Hussain Here” and I went in the room…..He was Standing quiet and I screamt!!! “Oh SHUCKs!!!!!!!!!”

was so Delighted to see him in the room….and he was Shining with his mischievious glow!!!!!

Then I was home with my in laws….celebrated Moms bday ….and cake and all that… was with H all day!!!

The SICK leave was so so so a BLESSING….but all the time I was truly sick my friends!!!!

26th jan morning went to Mumbai….attended the engagement…at night traveled back to Pune…reached here at 2 in the night…..!!!!

Losing…

| Masuma

Losing out the most needed, is what hurts brutally. Though once a loss is realised it has its own final state of presence.

what we desire for, or unconsciously develop a fondness to achieve some pleasure that allures gets stronger and stronger until not achieved. With the achievement it brings us the mental state of temporary happiness and a content urge. With continuity this possesion enters the zone of daily, it affects one everyday…it gives what it has to give…and lets the change stays forever.

Everything one possess or gets connected to at any point of time becomes a part of ones existence….so Loss is an ongoing process, at everypoint of time there is a death which is relative to us. Realisation of this death is loss.

It depends on the our capability how much to make the abstract, the inanimate,the imaginery, the moments, the LIFE of the past live forever.

One needs to understand that temporariness is essential to have its impact carried further.Loss brings its own benefits, once this is realised it will not hurt…but love you!!!

Heavy Rains

| Masuma

Heavy rains, obscured vision
Fresh cool air makes my dim heaven.

Lazying around with thoughts to run
Pleasing myself to confuse with pun.

Lost in love with complete sense
In and out chasing the higher fence

Distance seen shrinks to touch
Purity to find its home in crunch

our start

| Masuma

For a long period
SHARING insinuated
the fall of the event
Gaining mentation of commitment

The endless end of chatter
Occured at H’s disclosure
To the oblivious groomers
Feeling clueless at turnover

Then events took pace
The oldies got in the right craze
Continually knowing and knowing
with who is who, what is going.

Meanwhile we both without much care
kept are talks on each day hayware
i dont know how we wanted to always talk
things which never matter was also on the knock

So the day came when we met again
But the family jingbang was present to shake his mane
oh my i so was touched to see him go through
the customs n formalities he wished to forgo

still incomplete

To Lavanya on her bday

| Masuma

Simple little girl got old,

Expresses very bold.

Frowns like a kid,

Laughs like a giant,

Querys every second

On life and its implication,

Leaves strong love

To all those whom she tows

Wears a careless attitude freely

But cares for every existence undoubtedly

Never says a willing Bye

To always live with being closeby,

Be it anger or be it overjoy

It obvious to see it all coy

Hey dearee….i know u are the best,

To keep the world a little above the rest.

H

| Masuma

The H : Nonalphabetical

It started with the least interest,

To please the filial chest.

H was a new acquaintance,

Out of NOwhere a firm existence.

Life was simple in its old way,

Now got spiced up with fun and gay.

Some things never changed for me,

But yet I get to know more of me.

A strange entangled relationship as of now,

It will open knotted somewhere to tow,

The best of things which helps to grow,

Thus we share lightness to be mellow.

H has an air of positive and peaceful joy all around,

Wonder how can he be at ease always on the ground.

Demands respect in his unique style

Cautious with words all the while.

A youthful look entrapping a positive approach,

And an intelligent brain acting as a brooch.

He sees life as a comedy ,not a tragedy

Seriousness lives inside, but freely. (means – maturity& seriousness does not rob him off his jolliness)

Speed is something he has to be in pace with,

Make sure to be at instant on his any feat.

Simplicity lurks from the way he talks,

Just so normal with natural walks. (Natural walks here would mean Life)

Changing moods never halts,

Sadness lives only by faults.

There is so much pure in within,

Untouched by any kind of grave sin.

Could possibly write much longer, my pledge,

But I feel there is much more to my knowledge!

Grow dear friend in the right direction,

Bring wonders to your world with strong impression.
