CH01 - The Rainy Day

-
Unlike all other days, I decided to woke up earlier the next morning. It was beginning of rainy season and I love dew drops on the grass early morning. After setting an alarm for 5 am I jumped off to my bed.
Just before It was to ring gigantically, I woke up. I never understood reason behind this. May be you Quorians can better answer this. Some people told me that there’s an inbuilt clock inside our brain but I really have no idea about this.
Well, I should better wear those sandal before it’s late. I really hate certain bunch of people spoiling the atmosphere as they walk with their mobile talking & breaking the morning silence mostly after 7 am.
I started jogging towards the park. It is not more than a kilometer and took me around 5 minute to reach there. As a regular routine I turned up towards the vegetable juice shop. Surprisingly, I couldn't find her there. Thus, no juices before today’s jog.
Wasting no time I ran straight in to the park. It was lush green inside. I loved to see the Pearls shining over the green grass. They were twinkling as if the stars in the dark night. I would watch them for a while and soothe my eyes and mind. Soon after I moved to joggers track. Unlike other days, there were very few people. I would generally overtake at least 5 in a single round of 1 km but to my surprise not a single today.
Just before, I could complete my 2nd round it started raining very heavily today. It was supposed to be, after all it was the beginning of Monsoon. I was completely drenched. I found a shelter at the center of the park. I sat there and was enjoying the beauty of nature. It was all Green everywhere. Nature was at its best, it was then when I spotted someone sitting alone in the corner. Person seemed to be completely wet and ignorant about what's going on. Closer observation let me to identify that she was a girl. A bit reluctant but sympathetic, I started walking towards her. My presence near her made me feel as I'm invisible. Her head was down and she hardly noticed me. She wore a white cloth and was sitting below the tree. However, the tree in spite of providing a shelter was helping mother nature to form a biggest drops of water which could even hurt. Neither did she care about it.
"Excuse me miss", Said I.
As expected there wasn't any response at first.

CH03 - The Search

Soon after rain started to slow down, I ran towards the gate. It wasn’t actually the rain I was waiting for but the thoughts of her circling around. I soon realized that she had gone & could feel that something was really wrong with her behavior. I didn’t had enough of conversation with her to know her whereabouts thus was perplexed what to do next. I decided to not to go back to my house instead directly follow her. I called up my office stating I won’t be making up to work today. I started running & was now out of the park. There were three paths out from the garden. Straight would get you to the main town. If Somebody chooses left they would take you to main bus station or railway station. On the right was like outskirts of the town, walking nearly around 2–3 kms opens up to a dense forest. I wasn’t sure what to choose. It was more than 10 minutes me walking & now was almost out of the town. Being morning I could barely see any passers by. Though I choose right, I h...

CH02 - The Reply

“Hello Mam, Are you in any problem? May I help you anyway?”, asked I gently. After a long silence there was a most awaited reply from her, “Hi”. To make her comfortable, I sat left to her. I offered her the water bottle I had. However, there was neither any acceptance nor refusal. I was curious to know what’s wrong with this beautiful lady. To take the conversation any further, I started to blabber something stupid. I knew at sometime either she’ll get involved or will ask me to stop. “The world is not any better place for me to live”, Said she. “Why? What’s the problem? There’s everything beautiful around. Don’t you like the weather today? Look at the lush green trees. They are so soothing to eyes. The sky appears to be grey filled with cloud. Look everything around today seems to be very pure.” I wanted to appreciate her simplicity and beauty but was reluctant to do so. whatever but I was a stranger to her. But then there was a gut feeling that I should speak out. may be ...
