#114 …when you miss him even before you part.


As we sat through the movie, I knew nothing was going to be the same from tomorrow.
“The plot was nice. But they could have done better with the direction.” Sud said, as the screen displayed – The End.
I didn’t reply. I didn’t know. I had hardly watched the movie. I was lost in thoughts, thoughts which had no future, thoughts which were not to see the light of the day. I got up and we together started moving towards the exit.
“So, will you miss me from tomorrow?” he asked.
‘Miss you from tomorrow? I am already missing you.’ I thought, but didn’t say. There was no point telling him that. I simply nodded.
“Don’t forget me while I am away. Don’t forget to invite me on your wedding.”
Sudd and his family were shifting to London due to his dad’s posting there. He had been very excited ever since he found out. I knew he would not keep in touch, I knew he had lots to look forward to, I knew life would move on, and I knew my feelings would find its suitable place in the dark alleys of my memory. Only if I had made my feelings evident the very first day, Only if I had the guts to tell him today, Only if.. 

I must have rehearsed my lines, a thousand times
Until i had them memorized!
But when I get up the nerve to tell you,
the words just never seem to come out right!
