One of those typical nights in Bombay, hot and humid with a few gusts of breeze bringing relief into the night.
Standing by the black granite window sill she could see the dark blue city blending into the black sky. The empty road was lit by a flickering bulb, not a soul in sight-except for the watchman who had fallen asleep hours ago. Not a bird stirred, nor a dog bark, just 2 voices talking over the telephone.
'I wish I could be with you right now'
'Me too, but you know its impossible for me to get out at this hour. Where were you?'
'I was out with my friend-just chilling together, he and I hadn't met up in long'
'Hmmm'
'Kya hua?'
'Now I just wish I could see you'
'Im below your house'
'What??'
'Do not lie'
'Im below your house'
'Right, crap'
'You'll see and hear me in exactly 3 seconds'
HONK! A white car sped past across the road.
Not a single leaf rustled,the drowsy moon didnt peek out from the clouds and the sleeping dogs lay. But her whole world had arisen to his love.

Sometimes expectations are beaten. hollow-and life is rosier than one could imagine.
A lot of things cannot be explained. We often think of the ones we love exactly at the same time as they think of us..
Honking white car yeah !!
Like the prince on a white steed !!
Are you sure the car was white ??
Nice post
