Love Happens

I never believed in love or any kind of attachments till she happened to me. She came like a whirlwind and we fell in love in just three days. I could not imagine a guy like me falling for someone. Perspectives change and I too had changed. I began to believe that love can happen at anytime and it just needs one right moment. Years passed, hearts broken, things changed, circumstances changed and I never experienced it again.

As I was scrolling down the contacts, I found a number to which the last communication happened months ago. I just sent a greeting and waited. I wondered if I would even get a reply as I did not expect one. After couple of minutes my phone blinked. She had replied. We exchanged the pleasantries and it did not end there. I never expected that we could go on. We hardly had anything more than a couple of dialogues whenever we crossed each other at work. Now we have just hit the right spot and it fired. Perennial flow of messages over three days and we clicked instantly.

After a lot of scheduling, we finally met after couple of years in person. The discussions started off with a cup of coffee and went around various things, different people and in fact our lives. Our little chat spilled over to a dinner, dessert, and some more coffee. We talked till wee hours of the morning, when we finally decided to rest our vocal cords. We felt that we have known each other for years. She did not hesitate as put my hand around her. She slowly turned towards me, smiled and slept cuddling me. I was more than happy to have her in my arms.

As we woke up drowsily, she kissed me and got out of the bed to prepare some breakfast for us. She looked beautiful, the night robe accentuating her curves. I closed my eyes, smiling to myself. I was delighted that I found someone from no one. It was silent around when I opened my eyes. I called out to her, but there was no response. I checked the entire house, but she was untraceable. Her number was not reachable. When I felt I had something, I had lost it. A lot of thoughts cluttered my mind.

Why did she leave suddenly? Why is she not reachable? Will I ever find her again?

TIME holds all the answers.
