REAL not Reel Life

Life – it’s very simple if everything goes well but utni hi complicated if things go off the track.

I always think bhagwaan bas ye kaam ho jae fir sab set h but hey knock-knock its life challenging me with another problem in hand.

So to start with, When I was kid I used to wonder, let me finish my homework then sab set h boss then I grew up and I was like, let me get good marks in this exam then life is sorted.

Then came the boards, although today’s kids wont be that dreadful of these terms, all thanks to changes in the education system

Then came the race to get into a good college, a good job. But, you know what, actual life was waiting for me to happen.

Everything was kind of going well and then came the time to fall in love, and let me tell you one thing when we’re in love then every useless thing starts making sense. I thanked the inventors of the mobile phone from the bottom of my heart, I realized oh yes there is one organ in my body known as the heart that not only supplies oxygen to my tissues but also feels something emotionally called love. I loved him wholeheartedly to the extent ki kab main unk saath saath gulzar ki shayari k kayal ho gai pta hi nhi chala. Aise lagne laga ki upar wala bas mjh par hi meherbaan h aur ha the biggest myth of all time “mera wala sbse alag h”. I also did chat with him amidst chilling winter feeling a shiver running down my spine but hey baat krna zyaada zaruri h. I started enjoying the most monotonous job in my life cuz I was in love. I used to wait for my work to get over so that I could speak to him. He became my mentor, friend, partner, and love, my whole life. And in no time I started loving him more than myself and he became my world.

But hey knock-knock it's me the life again. Unfortunately mera wala alag nhi tha. Unfortunately, I wasn’t his priority which I completely understand but not my stupid heart. And that is when I realized what a broken and shattered heart feels like. Jitna amusement apne is dil k liye tab tha when he was also in love wid me usse kahi zyaada bura I was feeling for my heart right now. I was wishing ki I should have let my heart only pump the blood not love. Very soon my work days became scarier since his memories were flashing back, and my evenings became more dull cuz I had the time but he was not with me at that time. I just gulped my tears in a public place which later erupted like a volcano while taking shower sometimes while eating alone sometimes while going to bed at night every time. I hid in the office washroom and cried with all my heart out but silently and then came back to my cabin and tried to get back to work.

But hey, again awaiting life to knock on me cuz I know my love was true love and he will come back to me. I’ll again be d Gulzar of his life, he’ll b d Gulzar of my life. Message notification sound will again have the same anxious happiness in it cuz it's gonna be from him. I’ll again be his love and post that there will be no surprises from life knocking on my door. Yes, I may not be his priority today, but will surely become one, one fine day.
