Rekindled

Three years ago, the day I heard from him, it was a normal day, a day when nothing unusual would happen. It was all monotonous from the start. He left me a message. The message said, “Give me your number” and below, there was his number scribbled. So, what did his highness want from the lesser mortals? Among our many friends, he was the genius. Many might have fallen for him and I was one among many. I was excited.

            After weighing my chances, after hours of practice, I ringed him. I was all nervous and fear ran down my spine. He picked it up and spoke in his deep voice. I tried to sound straight but i was melting under his voice. We spoke and i knew the inevitable. I am in love.

There were times, when i was just a pace away from telling him, but i felt embarrassed. We stayed as friends. For the outside world, it was a mere friendship. He would be my friend in need and i would be his friend indeed. We lived like friends for the outside world. It was me, who lived a different life inside. I would fantasize conversations with him, would expect someday he will realize what I thought of him. I would badger him for silly things. I never knew what he thought. We were distances away, but for me, he was besides me, caring, helping and looking after me.

Days turned into months, months turned into few years. We were on good terms and i was on the edge. I realized love isn't just about being couple; love can be between two humans sharing varied relationships. I looked upon him as my inspiration. He was my listener, he was my mentor, he was my guide and he was my valued friend. The feelings were mutual. I loved him with all my heart but I could never define it. What is he to me, the answer is unknown and wanted it to remain the same forever.

I am living my life again, a corner of my heart beating just for him. I received a message today. His name brought with itself strong tides, pushing me towards my edge. An electric shock passed in me and the fire was rekindled.
