An Unexpected Meet - Part II

.........why did those words still revolve around me? I did not have any answers! Why I really felt the poem which I read? those letters, those words, those lines, really caught my heart!! why was my mind being so attached? I really don't know.. thinking this the coffee mug from my hand suddenly slipped down the fingers and broke into many pieces, the way my heart did!

 I wished my mind was in my control then these thoughts would never burn it this topic would never restart which was closed before 12 years due to some reasons and my one mind spoke out "no I am not thinking about him, he is no one in my life! Crusk lost his place now, now only about whom I should think is Gaspy but my heart was reluctant!

Every now and then that poem appeared in front of my eyes, and every now and then I could feel it, yes! That poem, that one which I read the other day. I never knew what I wished for? "Was Crusk the one I wanted?" And suddenly my mind interrupted-"NO!! what am I saying?? I am out of my mind!I got up from the bed walking towards the gallery, looking at the dark and deep Sky assumed my life is similar - Dark, mysterious and deep!! The night passed with the rise of the morn 'New York Express' was the newspaper which I read every day and page 12 was my favourite one as it had stories poems articles and much more...

Like the other days, I opened to page 12 and began reading. Reading newspapers, pamphlets, listening to music and all other my favourite activities were only the ones who could pull me out from the Other mind burning thoughts. And guess what!- I couldn't believe my eyes the poem which always revolved around me, the poem which I felt like I lived it once, the poem which I felt from each corner of my heart, was now published in an international newspaper with "~scrawled by unknown" written at the end, in the left corner!! I knew Crusk was the one who had composed it but the entire world was unknown about secret poet but yess I knew it!

Let's stop pretending now!! That moment, that morning, I couldn't resist my thoughts, my feelings, something internally pulled me towards a wooden row house lit with candles in the centre of the frozen and snowy city! It was a huge one! I didn't know what I was doing..I pushed the wooden door with full of the force, entered the house and saw Crusk sitting on the wooden chair with Messy hair, silver chain in his neck spectacles on his eyes which hid those tears! and there were yellowish pages fallen..He was writing something. I even forgot to keep the newspaper at home and it was still open with page 12!

.....and my heart couldn't stop beating fast!! I stopped myself at a certain distance from Crusk, as he saw me he stood up from the chair falling deep into the thoughts he looked into my eyes deeply, and trust me very deeply!!! Gaspy followed me I knew it and stood outside at the door far away from us just smiling and watching. I could not control my emotions and I ran covering the distance between us I hugged Crusk very, very and very tightly forgetting all what was going to be happen then and of course it was a damn affectionate one as it covered the distance of more than 12 years and yes I forgot to tell you when I hugged him tightly this time ever in my life Newton's third law work practically!!! Hah😂

That tears which I controlled the other day were now flowing out like anything, then I turned behind as I knew Gasper watched everything and I knew he would understand me and he would permit this start as he himself suffered from the similar situation and it's still unforgettable for him too to forget her.  He smiled with complete satisfaction as he knew he would never get his true love back but I did. And yes, the entire story changed!!!

The End!
