Shortest Love Story!

SCENE 1:

It was a pleasant evening, the clock ticks around 4 PM, Weekend seems to be at the end of the never ending road, as it is what we hate to say Monday. Another hectic day at office about to end. Laziness in breakfast, Stress in Lunch and some gossip at evening tea was the menu today. Is that all? Day over?

As the legend of Cricket Mr. Sunil Gavaskar once said, “It’s not over until the last ball is bowled”

So then, does that means some more deadlines to be meet? Status call? Meeting? Well no, Not today. It was the time for this guy to get rid of the stressful day and with all the thoughts of what happened in office entire day, he enters the TT (Table Tennis) room.

Nothing new, same group, same tired or say frustrated faces. Some dance group practicing for a ‘event’ which this guy can never be part of (the permanent ink of contractor is what was hanging at his belt) The game starts, as usual, but no something was written to happen today! The guy smashes the ball, it goes and disturbs the other table and then the magic happens what he sees after that was mesmerizing.

An elegant, dusky girl, wrapped up in a sexy brown color leather jacket was sweating hard at this game. Was it love at first sight? What happened after that? Did the guy approached the girl with same old pick up line “Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I come by again”. Well the answer is NO, modern generation we are from.

The guy with his attitude, and no smiling(yes this guy always holds an impression that he never smiles) continues with his game, and the gorgeous girl continues her struggle to learn.

The guy would have never loved the concept of ‘mixed doubles’ anymore then that day. Still no talking but playing his best. But still it wasn’t known to both that this wasn’t just a team up for the game. None were holding any ‘supernatural powers’ which can tell them what’s up for future. The game ended, time was to leave but the guy was never too eager to stay back in office till that very evening.

Coincidence or Intentionally, the guy ended up in the same lift along with the girl. A decent hi/hello greetings and getting to know each other’s name happened finally.

FINAL SCENE: 

(Yes you read it right, I mentioned it’s a short LOVE story)

Since it’s a social networking world, guy went on to Facebook to search for the girl and the request send. A fraction of seconds later, notification of friend request accepted comes!! The smile on his face could have lighted up the dark room (power cuts are pretty common everywhere)

A few minutes later in the conversation, a typical question is asked by the guy “Do You have a boyfriend”.The fingers were crossed, even the legs were crossed, but all went in vain when the answer came as “YES”

So now what, was this love? Or an attraction?

The story that started at around 4:30 in evening seemed like will end at around 9:00 at night.

Guy is still clueless whether to continue or quit trying!
