But the little kid kept bothering me. I couldn't see her again the same way i saw her the first time. The little kid had ruined it all.
As i was debating within myself if she could be really that old or could the little one be her niece or neighbour, i was still gazing her.
She was beautiful,looked mild manner and every inch the female you would love to spend time with.She kept attracting me.I hadn't focused so much on a single thing since my 8 th Semester B.Tech exams,where in the exam hall i kept staring at my friend unwaveringly waiting for him to pass me on his paper. Then came the moment of relief, when the bus stopped at an intermediate junction and old man got down with the little girl. Phew.... she wasn't her mother. Yippeeee........
I didn't know why felt relieved but i felt. Funny things do happen. Next it was my turn to get down.I walked down and past her ignoring her and alighted at a stop near my company.
It thought it was over.Laughed to myself and started walking.
But was it?
I turned around at the bus and there she was gazing out through the window. We both were caught red handed by each other. The bus moved on and so did I. It was fun.
Half an hour of journey which I hated every day was pleasant today. Life does throw up small surprises every now and then.
Didn't think of her much after that until know when decided to text it down here.Had to dig deep into my memory to remember her face again,but could succeed only to an extent.
