A Journey

She looked out of the window of the car and was lost in thoughts. Thoughts which infested her like a spreading cancer killing her as ever second passes by. Her mind popped a zillion questions in a single second. She definitely knew something went wrong in those 37 minutes between the last 2 phone calls she got from him. She wanted to know what made him cold and soulless in a matter of minutes. Was it something she had said? Is it something at work ? Or Is it something much bigger than all these? She raked her mind to come up with some thing but all she could find was questions and more questions.

She cursed the day she met him for the first time. Despite her intuitions blaring red signals telling her that this friendship is going to end in a way she would never want. Its not that she ignored her inner voices, she tried to keep him at an arms length, she avoided him in the cafeteria, when he came and sat next to her to have lunch she didn't get into any small talks instead ate the food silently. And even told him directly that she would like to spend her lunch break alone when he tried to accompany her for a walk after lunch. But destiny had something else in store. He was the last person in the world she wanted to bump into on her b'day at the mall. Their meeting ended up with a quiet dinner in a fairly decent restaurant, the chemistry between them was so instant that they ended up talking late into the night until the restaurant was about to close. Since then there were countless hours of conversation about sweet nothings. And everything seems so normal when until today. What could it be ? Why did it happen this way? These questions haunted her restless mind. She wanted let her helplessness and frustration out but How? Who would understand her state of mind?

The car stopped with a screech in front of her house and she jerked back to present, a present without him and hoped hopelessly to live in the past forever.
