It’s almost 11 AM I was in a rush searching for Ferns and Petals in M Block market, it’s a new place and I’m already late. Then my phone rings and the display said MYSH (My Sweet Heart) calling….
I picked up the phone and told her I’m almost there near Coffee Bean, but still I didn’t find the flower shop which was tracked online few days before coming to Delhi, went and asked a person on the road for Ferns and Petals, he directed me and the shop was very close.
I saw the store which is in market end. Walked in to the store and found lot of beautiful flower, but I already had the picture in my mind how the rose should be.Vandana like pink rose so I thought I will take bunch of pink rose instead of red. Then a second though popped out “should I buy Rose or Lilly”
Then I decided I will give this beautiful pink rose for now and Lilly later. I told the shopkeeper to give me bunch of 10 pink roses, did the payment gave my hand picked roses to the storekeeper to pack it for me. Its late I am in a total rush but I can’t rush the shopkeeper, he started making the rose bunch with other leafs and I told him to take the leafs and asked him to bunch the roses alone with a transparent paper, yes! My rose is ready, I’m all set to go and meet her.
I started walking towards Coffee Bean the moment was so amazing and everything looked very beautiful and fresh, now I started feeling my heart beat beating fast. Reached the café staircase I climbed slowly checked my look in a mirror by the stair. Push opened the glass door with all excitement to see Vandana, walked inside and I didn’t see her siting anywhere, for a moment I though is this the right café I have entered. Then I thought no way it will be wrong. I want to sit in a one place and relax, though may be she should be in the restroom. I can’t wait siting in the couch and the place was warm because of direct sun from window, felt I should check another private place left my bag, flowers and shades on the table and checked for a better place to sit, now I found Vandana’s shades and her brown bag on the table which is in one corner, and again I had a double. Whether this belongs to her or not, then realized there is no time for thinking let’s bring my things from the early place and sit here and present myself very cool and calm. I came fast, got my bag, rose and shades ,was rushing to the table.
Then I saw a person in my side view and I know that is Vandana and I don’t want to meet her standing. Now I hear a voice “Henry” then casually I turned towards her surly knowing that is Vandana.
Now I’m seeing Vandana for the very first time, she was very beautiful, and i don’t know how to express this amazing moment of my life. Just gave a side hug then we went and sat, I can’t take my eyes of her, she was all glowing, amazing she was. Gave the flowers and she said “thank you” with a mild tone.
I still remember here body language from that moment. I still can’t forget the tone she called my name for the very first time. All beautiful all wonderful.
We planned to talk many things on phone before meeting, now no words came all I want to do is just to see here, slowly she dragged the menu to my side and said pick something to drink, but I didn’t feel like eating or drinking anything because of the excitement and overflowing joy….,
