I still remember that winter when i was going to my home after finishing my semester exams after six months, i was so excited about meeting my friends Sanket, Akash, Richa, Mohnish, Bhumi as we will meet after a long time. In this excitement i left to Coimbatore with Gowtham (my close friend in college) as he was familiar with the place which was unknown for me. We reached there around 6 in the evening, I still had two more hours for my train so i asked Gowtham to take me to a gift shop to buy gift for my sister. He took me to a gift shop, which he described as the best shop in whole Coimbatore, i bought a barbie doll for my sis and Gowtham got one Teddy from there, we paid our bill and headed for railway station. On the way to station i asked for whom he bought that teddy, he blushed and whisphered in my ears " its for my girl friend " he said.
" What?, how can you fall in love", i said.
" It just happened, when i saw her for the first time i fall in love with her, her SMILE, her EYES......", he went on describing her.
"Shut up", I said interrupting him.
" LOVE- Lake of happiness, Ocean of joy, Valley of sweetness, End of sorrows", he described love.
" I dont agree with that, in my dictionary of life it is Lake of sorrow Ocean of tears Valley of death End of Life", I said.
" May be you won't understand it now, but once you fall in love you will realize whatever i am saying is true", he became emotional.
" Ok yaar, cool down but for me LOVE is just waste of time, you can be yourself and do whatever you like", i said.
Meanwhile we reached station around 7 pm, my train was at right time. I asked Gowtham to leave for his home and bid a bye to him saying we will continue our conversation once i come back.
"Ya sure, bye have a happy journey" he said and left.
I moved towards the enquiry to check status of Kerala Express.....................
