"Why did you come into my life? Is it just to leave me alone someday?" I paused for a moment, "Ok, I am asking you for the last time, do you love me or not?" I asked her looking into her eyes.
"No," she said avoiding eye contact.
I threw her marriage invitation and left her without speaking anything, because I didn’t want to cry before a girl. Tears ran through my cheeks. I knew she loved me more than what I did. Because she is two years elder than me, she was not ready to accept me.
Often I used to ask her to wait for just two years, so that I would catch her age. Though it sounds funny, I was really mad at her.
I know that I am lazy in everything, but, is it my fault for being born late?
Guys do accept younger girls but why not girls do the same? Why this discrimination?
Till that moment I lived for her and I did what she liked. But there onwards I had decided to break all the rules. I took a piece of paper and listed out the things that she never wanted me to do.
1. Alcohol
2. Cigarette
3. Liar
I decided to start from the top of the list. I kept walking until I found a wine shop. The dealer in that shop might have found that it was the first time for me going to wine shop, because I kept staring at the bottles lined up. I didn’t know which one to ask, so I just pointed my hand in random.
"Half or full?" he asked me.
"Quarter," I said.
He gave me a small bottle in which it was written 'Vodka' and I smelled it taking it in hand.
"Apple flavor," he said.
'Good development,' I thought.
I bought a coke, mixed vodka in it and took a sip. When the dealer said it was apple flavor I thought it would taste sweet like an apple, but it was really horrible. May be rotten apple taste like that. I closed my eyes and had it completely. I took out the list and struck off 'Alcohol'.
Later I bought a Cigarette in the near by shop. I lit it and had few puffs. I coughed at first but later it took me high. I almost flew in the air without wings.
‘So that is the reason people are addicted to it,’ I told myself.
I had stricken the ‘Cigarette’ in the list and saw my watch. The time was around 11:00pm and I realized that I was the only one standing in that long road. The sky was clear and I could see only a single star.
“Even you are abandoned by moon?” I said looking up.
I took out my phone and dialed her number.
“Hello,” she said picking up the call.
“You know what, I hate you. And I don’t love you,” I shouted.
I knew both the sentence meant the same.
“I don’t want to meet you in my life again. Good bye!” I said and hung the call.
I sat down on the platform and wiped my face.
“Sorry,” I said striking ‘Liar’ off the list.
