Elohim,
Pearly gates.
Dear Elohim,
First let me introduce my self. I'm Suresh kannan, a software engineer working in a top company. I still remember my first day in my company. I was a fresher from college. Me with three of my friends got into the company through campus interview. We four took a house near our company for rent and stayed there since our company is 200km away from our home village. Other than us few other girls from our college also got job in that same company. One of them is Swathi. Basically I always found uncomfortable to talk with girls but, the other guys used to talk with them. One month passed. We got our first month salary. we and those girls planned to celebrate it together. We went to beach, cinema and finally went to a star hotel and had a heavy dinner. Actually i'm not comfortable to celebrate in with those girls. After returning home i had a cold war with my friends for celebrating it with those girls.
The next day i was returning home from my office lonely. Swathi saw and came near me and said
"Hi"
"Hi", i responded.
We walked a few distance together without talking anything.
"Why you are not talking with us?". she asked.
"hmm.. you girls didn't talk with me..that's why", i replied.
"Well, here after we are friends. ok?", she asked and showed her hands for shake-hands. First i hesitated later i gave my hands. We reached her room. She asked me to come in and have a cup of tea. But i convinced her by telling that I have some important work in my room. She said"Bye",with a cute smile. I showed my hands and continued my walk.
The next day me and one of my friends sowrirajan were sitting in the office canteen. Swathi came and sat near us.
"How are you Suresh", she asked.
"ya..fine", i replied.
"Where are your other two friends",she asked.
"They are in the room, they have night shifts today",i reported.
Her friends called her in next table so, she moved.
"What a wonder! you are talking with a girl!", my friend sowri exclaimed.
I gave a smile.
Fews days later, It was October 27th, Her birthday. I didn't went to the office actually since i felt tired that day. She came to my room and gave me a chocolate. That chocolate is not an ordinary one. Its a special one. I want to present her a gift. The next day I bought a key chain for her. I thought my key chain will also be a special one for her.
Days passed. A worm friendship grown between us. Then the day came November 5th, my birthday. I met her in the office and gave her a chocolate. I thought she will present me something but, i got only a line of wish "Wish you happy birthday." That day evening my friends were watching a movie but, i was thinking about Swathi. My friend Saravanan came near me and asked
"What are you thinking about?"
"nothing."
"ok..then who are you thinking about?"
"Nobody",i smiled
"What's the meaning of your smile?"
"nothing"
"hey! tell me the truth, who is that girl?"
"Girl? nobody."
"Hey! i'm your friend. i can understand you without your words. Tell me"
"Swathi"
"Are you in love with her?"
"Don't know"
"It means yes."
"yea."
"congrats da"
"thanks.. it will be nice if i get her phone number.", i said.
"Don't worry. I'll get you her number", my another friend Sairam said.
"How?", i asked.
"Wait and see", he said.
The next day me and Sairam were sitting in canteen. She came with her friends and sat on the next table. She kept her mobile on the table and went to order something. Sairam took her mobile from the table without the knowledge of her friends and gave a miss call to my mobile. So finally i got her number.
I called her that evening.
"Hello", I murmured.
"ya.. tell me", she responded.
"you found out who i am?", i asked.
"Santhosh right"
"no.. hey! I'm Suresh"
"Oh.. you dude.. How you got my number?"
"That's top secret"
"hmm.. ok"
We both talked over phone for couple of hours till the balance ends. Few days went. One day i called her
"Swathi"
"ya"
"Shall I tell you one thing?"
"ya tell"
"But you should not get anger in me"
"ok tell"
"you should not take me cheap ok?"
"What you are going to tell? ok tell"
"I like you very much"
"I also like you only as a friend"
"ok i can understand"
"ok i will talk with you later"
"ok bye"
Next day i didn't saw her in the office. Evening i phoned her. she told me not to phone her and disturb her further. I was shocked by her words. I asked her the reason. She told that her mom told her not to talk with boys. I can understand that is a lie. I told her
"Hey don't tell any lie, tell the truth"
"really man"
"O my God.. tell something believable"
"ok I'm telling.. I'll not talk keep in touch with guys through phone usually. That's why"
"Hey! then why don't you tell this to me on the first time when I called you itself"
She didn't answer me for that. She cut the call. Then I called her many times. She didn't attend the call. Finally she attend the call. Finally She told that She hate me and dislike to talk with me. Just dis appointed with those words. My heart is completely broken. I cut the call and cried a lot. I dislike to live without her. I found an injunction on the shelf which was bought when one of my friends were ill. I made my mind to inject air in my vein through that injection and kill myself. At that time i got a phone call. That is from my mom. My mother's Love and affection towards me ran on my mind and changed my mind set. Later i came to know that it was my roommates who phoned my mom and asked her to call me. They all three gave me some valuable advice. Then i again called Swathi and asked,
"Asking finally , will you talk with me or not?"
"Telling finally, I'll not talk with you through phone and if you call me again I'll not even see you in the office "
"ok you no need to talk with me .you hell, you no need to even look at me. Why I have to dump you in my heart when you are hating me. My heart is not a dust corner. Just a very good bye"
Thank you Elohim for giving me those wonderful friends. If you have not provide me those friends i would have died couple of weeks before. My friends rocks.
I may have scolded her. But still love her a lot because, true love never ends. If you can please give me strength to forget her because, living with her memories really sucks.
Thank you,
Yours,
Suresh kannan
