He no longer looked like the guy she knew. Those chubby cheeks aren't chubby anymore; the potbelly he had, is not visible. He looks fit, smart, amazingly charming and younger for a 30 year old except for the grey hair that started appearing round his hair and the goatee he possessed. For the person that she is who notices every single thing about him, these changes amazed her. Though she wondered how a person can change so much over an year's time, these changes weren't actually 'changes' that anyone who just knew him would notice, and she wasn't someone who 'just knew' him! Except for his physical appearance, and may be the love he had for her, everything else remained intact. The charm, and the personality that he is, hasn't worn out, and she feared, she would fall for him all over again!
They have known each other for over 7 years and there was something about him that made her fall for him the moment they met! She had never thought that he's handsome or cute like the rest of the men she knew, but this guy had something worth tripping for. And may be, that something has made her want to meet him and talk to him now after an year.
They both have moved on, literally. But for her, it was more of pretending to be moved on than it rather was!
They had now came to this unknown place to talk after ages, but he got involved in his daily fitness training and she, as always, ended up watching him, than uttering a word. She realised, he has now become a fitness freak and may be that's to keep himself away from all the worries he had. She felt bad that she could never help him with his chaos, but instead added up to it, and that made them part like strangers!
She was watching him without blinking wee bit until her eyes were filled. Watching him made her think, "Wasn't he the guy I always wanted to spend the rest of my life with? Don't i still want that? Will i ever be able to tell him what I feel?"
She thought she would meet him, and ask him whether they can be 'friends' again, but watching him this close made her realise that she can never do that; She still loves him and he's always more than a friend to her, and that bitter truth hurt her. She might never have expressed it to anyone, but the past one year without him was miserable for her. Deleting his pictures from her mobile phone or erasing his text messages and emails never helped her. Everything changed, but still the love she had for him didn't!
He took an hour to wind up his training; he got freshened up and walked towards her. He sat next to her and started talking as if nothing happened ever between them. And she did what she always loved to do - listen to him. He had indeed moved on a lot more than she did! and she's still there were they had left it!
She came to know that he has finally decided to get married, to someone else, of course. Good for him! She told him even her parents have started looking out! Only if she hadn't made things tough for him with her insecurities and demands, life would have been easier for both of them and they didn't have to search for someone else to spend the rest of their lives with.
They got comfortable with each other all over again and shared a lot of things they haven't for the past one year, except for the things she wanted to tell him. For someone who didn't seem to have any feelings for her, how would she say that she was sorry and wanted another chance? How would she tell him that she still loved him and wanted to be with him? She didn't mention anything and pretended as if she had moved on too.
After a while, they parted, for their surprise, with smiles on their faces!
May be they would become friends again, or would never talk to each other. May be they would see again or would not meet at all. May be they would get married to each other or attend each other's wedding with someone else. And it all depended on how he wanted things to be, as her deeds had already made her lose the rights to take a decision on what they would be doing about 'their' future.
She got back to her world cursing that bitch called LOVE who left her perplexed and made her look like a stupid, and insisted her to keep hope that someday he would call her back and everything would fall in place and may be the meeting they just had was a glimpse of what the future holds !
