Today is Monday, besides the hang over of a rather tedious yet memorable weekend- am back to office. It’s a lazy day here too, office lacks the usual buzz. There are few men clad in Kurthas-(its Diwali time)… many workstations empty. People sitting in groups and chatting. Me- am chatting too, on the communicator. There is no one peeping on my monitor, I can play games, listen to music….. Office is almost empty. Even if I say it’s boring, I love it this way- with no one 2 boss around. So right now I am listening to Roxette- “it must have been love… “ one of my fav songs.
The hang over of the weekend creeps in my mind… the Ramoji trip on Saturday. It was fun.. total fun after a long time… had a great time and good food too….
The highlight of the weekend was the birthday treat that Nikhil aka Pattar threw for us. Sunday evening, we set off…. Had a tough time locating the place- “our place” as it is called. Oh my…. the place was just amazing. My eyes wandered…. Candles everywhere, ‘diyas’ is the right word. Diyas lit at every nook and corner. The place was just… Err… Romantic!!!
The dim lighting gave the place such a dreamy aura. I felt truncated – I lacked the symmetry that this place demanded. It was so inappropriate to walk into such a place unaccompanied by the one who would complete the definition of the word- romance. I looked at faces around and there were quite a few who reflected my thoughts. So, those of us sighed deeply and walked in to the candle lit tables. We ate, laughed, had fun- it was a nice evening indeed. Still I had this “looking forward to the day when I would share this table with the real one” feel.
Life is actually boring when it lacks the special person in life. The one, who by my definition of love- is solely mine. The person whom I can cry to, I can laugh with, fight with, one with whom I can be my true self. Its not that I do not have anyone in my life to share my feelings- I am fortunate to have many ears where I can pour the deepest of my worries. Still I know I am not complete and the place reminded me of the sense of incompleteness. Life is just not whole without the romance factor in it.
I left the place, with the sense of single hood – a burden in my heart. Perhaps it was the place that stirred such thoughts in my mind. Yeah it was the place. So candle lit dinners and such romantic places are a strict NO NO to us singles. So what say u singles out there?????
