An Unexpected Meet - Part I

And I couldn't stop breaking into tears when I probably saw him after 12 years after college life. But this time I couldn't go back and choose him over Gaspy. I scrolled my hand certainly down from Gaspy's hand when I saw Crusk after complete 12 years.There was snow all around in the zone I really didn't even dream that Crusk would come back after Our last meet on 28th april in 2007 when we were separated from each other not by cities but by hearts..

My heart always used to beat fast and still beats faster for him but the things he repeatedly did before 12 years then always striked my mind and bought me out of the excitement, and that was the real reason we broke up before 12 years!!!

"Okay, so where was I?" Oh yeah..there was snow all around and Gaspy and me were walking hand in hand, my only real reason to choose Gaspy as my life partner was nothing but just and just to forget Crusk, though it wasn't possible...After all it was a TRUE ONE!!

Though I and Crusk had Unforgettable relation before, though we made promises for life but destiny ,on the other hand had its own different plans and surely I didn't have any strong power which would overlap the plans of destiny and create my own!!

After my eyes were again pulled towards Crusk, I certainly started taking turn to all the old days and re-collected the memories in my mind..."no! no!! no!!"I shouldn't think over it much now coz' I knew they were'nt useful now, then my walking speed slowly and slowly decreased and now I was about to stop seeing Crusk walking from the opposite direction that from mine. He was 2 metre away from me and before this 2 metre distance would reduce to one I pulled Gaspy's hand and stoped there itself..

The more interesting thing is that Gaspar, yes Gasper, knew everything about us!! Looking at Crusk I was really surprised to see no new girl in his life that time, and only old yellowish book, a blue pen, and a few torn pages..by the way..one could guess him as a writer and a broken one, after having look at him!!

Anyways, why was I thinking about him a lot?? I really didn't want to talk with Crusk and I forcefully managed tears coming out from my eyes recalling old memories, and the person too!

Gaspy loved me with all his heart..The phone vibrated and it was of Gaspy he walked away talking on the call and I was still frozen in my own thoughts.

The cold broke up that evening and steam of cold Breeze misplaced all the pages from Crusk's hand, and I was unknown one of that page having something written on it tickled on my sweater and I really didn't know what was it but it was a beautiful and heart touching rather, breaking poem written on it!!

It was composed by none other than him, that's Crusk,but why did I feel like I lived the poem? like I experienced it some while ?okay, so I don't know, well Crusk was all broken and he somehow tried to manage and fix his broken heart with the art of writing poems!!!! no !!no!! no!! I was not supposed to be emotional this time.. I shouldn't be keen observer in his case at least ,and trying to divert my mind I suddenly lifted my eyes up from the poem, removed my spectacles, blew warm Air on it and was pretending to be alright and disconnecting my life from poem!!

I called up loudly when Gaspy was still busy on phone I cried, "Gasper, Gaspar hey, come on we're getting late " and we leaved...

I was walking towards exit door and I turned behind and saw Crusk sitting on his knees doing nothing but picking up the pages of poem I left there sometime before which belonged to him and was wiping those tears from his eyes! And then I swear I was out of the gate and even out of my mind!!

My mind Whispered slowly -"will he find an another girl, or still would keep writing about "our" life?"
