The Beginning of Everything

 It was a bright sunny day, sitting at my window seat in the college bus, little did i ever realise that what started out as a dream, would eventually become the "ultimate" thing of my life, that it would take its course in time, being bliss and curse as and when needed. 

"You'd still be sane" would be one thing i would tell my future self back then, so much so that she would find calm through the course of time. 

Here is an account of how it all started:

2012

Little would have people believed if i ever told them about your existence in my life, but i dreamt of you, and this was my first interaction with you.

"I dreamt of you yesterday. You were beautiful. The dream was beautiful. The dream was beautiful. For a moment, everything seemed real. I felt like it was actually happening in the outside world, but the bliss lasted only till my eyes were closed. Everything was colourful till the eyes were closed, especially you and me, and then when my eyes met the morning light, the colorful thought, the blissful moment that we were sharing suddenly vanished leaving me without you. 

We were sitting on bank of river, with the cold water of morning touching us as we dip our feet into it. Both of us: looking at each other, and smiling, smiling radiantly like the bright afternoon sun!

No words, no awkward silences. It was as if the silence we shared had a language of its own, and both of us were able to decipher it without making a conscious effort. 

And then suddenly, I wake up from this secret sacred moment of ours, with a panic, my eyes searching for you.

Waking up without you by my side, i tightly shut my eyes with a hope to find you in the darkness of my dreams, and there you were, standing with arms crossed. 

"It isnt possible, you spoke as i began walking towards you. I was silent with a smile on my face. You walked away from me saying:

"I dont understand why and how do you manage to force a "yes" from me everythime? Say something! This sielnce is deafening me!" 

You say this and sit facing towards the wall, your face towards me. I kiss you on your lips and you smile. 

And you ask, "Did you really do that? Did you?
