Ever since their last conversation she was feeling free. She was relaxed for reasons unknown to her. She felt like her purpose of meeting this man was accomplished. This was the reason that she met him suddenly out of nowhere. Probably she was feeling free because she could equally counsel herself with this man. She was feeling light.
But their last conversation had put him to a lengthy thought process too. Her apprehensions seemed to have shifted from her to him. He was more scared than ever.
He knew he was lighter than ever but he didn’t know if what he has decided in himself is good for him.
“How you doing?”
“As good as ever.”
She now used to feel content after talking to him.
“Nice. So tell me. Tell me things that you want to.”
He wanted to hear about things now.
She started telling him general things which she would and she could talk to anyone around.
“Why you talk to me so much?”
He asked abruptly.
She went silent.
“I don’t know. May be because you are an honest man and I have never come across someone so honest in my life.”
“That is not just the reason.”
“You talk intelligent.”
She tried to find other reasons.
“Give me a better one.”
He insisted.
“Because I like talking to you!!”
“Exactly !!”
They both smiled.
“I want to tell you something.”
“ And that is ?”
“I have decided something.”
“Tell me.”
“I will not talk about my past to YOU or to anyone after this.”
“WHY ?”
She could not conceal the shock.
“I don’t want to think about it anymore. How will I be able to make a move if I stick to my past. I think you rightly said that if I will tightly close my eyes I won’t be able to see the beauty that lays ahead. I have so much more to explore.”
She was content with his words.
“Thanks for understanding this.”
She said.
“Thanks for listening patiently.”
She FELT joy for the first time. He FELT relaxed for the first time.
They both knew what each one of them was thinking.
The Night was not dark today. The night was not EMOTIONLESS today..
