The road trip...

The girl...
With a heart like diamond.. pure and clear.
When she talked the whole world sank in her sweet voice. When she laughed; flowers bloomed and birds sang. When she slept... silence...
Being a designer ,she was smart, talented and bold at her decisions.

I ,being a MBA was very busy at work.
Engaged in work, assignments, presentations..lacked in making time for others and for myself.
I lost myself in loads of hustle and bustle.

We were best friends forever who agreed to stay hand in hand; but destiny had a different say.
We were separated in the long run of life.

Back to our togetherness...

We were childhood friends. We knew every bit about one another.
I remember the day when we planned to go on a road trip with no one;only trees covering our way.
We planned to go to a beach wearing the same attire. Pink, floral print dress!
Everything was decided; but who knew that our path of life would be different,with not a companion by our side?

Years passed on and on...

I finally got a holiday from my busy schedule.
The next morning a postman with a letter arrived at my place.
"In today's world who post letters?" I thought to myself.
I opened it.
'School reunion!! Come everyone!Let's celebrate!'..it said!
I got super excited. School days! Wow!
My excitement seemed no limit..i jumped and danced.

The day came- School reunion!
I hurriedly went to my old classes..the smell still prevailed. Tears of joy and happiness enraptured me!

One of my old mates came up to me.. I recognized her at the very first glance.
We talked and talked..

She asked me what I was doing and all..
"Oh wow dear, MBA. You must be very busy then".
"Yes, but now I am on my holidays. Fortunately was able to make time for this wonderful event".
"What are your plans then?"
"I'm thinking..but don't know where to go! "

"How about a road trip!?",a voice from behind took over.
I turned round to check it out.
My eyes popped, my jaw fell open, my heart skipped a beat.

She.. The girl with magic.. My best mate.
We ran towards one another.. gaining consciousness. Memories flowed in.. our sweet,old memories...
She whispered... "we'll wear the 'pink, floral outfit okay!? "
Hearing her.. tears flowed.

Separated souls once again reunited.
