Close Apart (Chapter-8)

Close Apart
Chapter-8
“Here She Comes…”


Still coping with the pain of leaving his ‘lady love’ for the rest of the week, Aditya dragged himself towards the platform where Rajdhani Express was about to arrive.

Komal was coming in the couch AS2. So when the train arrived Aditya went near the coach and waited for her to pop out.

A few moments later a young girl came out. Aditya had some genuine doubts about her being Mr. Arora’s daughter, he never thought that his daughter could inherit such beauty, but when he saw that she was actually giving a feel of looking for someone, Aditya approached.

“Excuse Me, Miss Komal Arora?”

“Yeah!?”

“Aditya here, Actually Mr. Arora had an important appointment so…”

“But Dad Said that he’ll be here!!”

“It was a last minute change!!”

“Look! I don’t need this…”

“Excuse me?”

“I mean I don’t need anyone to receive me at the station and escort me to my home!! I am old
enough to handle these things.”

“I can understand…”

“No you can’t! So just show me where the car is?”

Aditya always had this complaint that he can’t control his temper, but keeping in mind that arguing with boss’s daughter was not at all a bright idea, he decided to keep quite.

Once in the car, Komal was a little bit settled. Aditya never had the slightest urge to have a look at Komal in the back-seat. Although he realized that she was one of the most beautiful girls he has ever met in his life!

Komal was around five and a half feet in height, her complexion was somewhat resembling to those milk chocolates that kids crave to have, her eyes were green and her hair was colored with a shade of brown which, I guess is a mystery! (Readers, don’t doubt on Aditya’s intentions!! That was me briefing you all on how she looks… Gorgeous!)

Aditya was too much engulfed in Amrita’s memories to notice anything around, so he literally jolted when Komal spoke.

“Excuse Me! Aditya, right? Eh… I am sorry!”

“For What?”

“For behaving so rudely at the station.”

“It’s alright!”

“No its not! Please forgive me!”

“O.K.”

And a short silence prevailed.

“You work in dad’s office?”

“Yeah…”

“And you are…”

“Software Consultant…”

“I just finished my Journalism study.”

“Hmm...”

“Are you always so short in speech?”

“Listen Madam, streets of Kolkata demands more attention while driving, so it’s not a good idea to drive as well as chat!!”

“O.K.”

Aditya parked the car in Mr. Arora’s apartment’s parking lot. His flat was on the 3rd floor. Aditya hauled the luggage in front of the door, pressed the doorbell for her and said.

“Goodbye Madam!”

“Call me Komal. See Ya!”

Train Encounter(Chap-10)

Train Encounter Chapter-10 Epilogue "Truth is stranger than fiction" I've heard this many a times from many of my friends, but never got a chance to verify it. This July (I mean july2006) when I was on my way back to my college in Nagpur, I was struck for 6 hours at Tatanagar station, I didn't have the slightest idea that I'll get to face one of my life's most interesting moments. Yes, dear reader!! What you just got through last 9 chapters actually happened to be my fellow co-passenger!! I came to know about her problems when I had started chatting with her when I knew that she too was going in the same train. She didn't want to tell this "weird" incident to me at first, thinking that I won't believe her, but then told at last. I was awestruck when she told me that the person was going to meet her that very day!! Well anyone can guess what amazement did I pass when the person turned out to be her Boyfriend!! I just asked them if I could wr

Close Apart (Chap-3)

Close Apart Chapter-3 “Lamb Delight” “Lamb Delight!! Wow, that was some order!” recalled Aditya. Actually, it was about a few months earlier that Manish, a colleague of Aditya tried to hook him up with a girl named Suneeta, who, Manish claimed was one of his girlfriend’s friend. So! On the preplanned Saturday night, Aditya came to this very place and met her. “She was gorgeous!” was Aditya’s first reaction and after a very short stretch of time Aditya started liking everything about her. And when Aditya knew that she was a little bit interested about computer softwares, then it made feel like: “look! Didn’t I tell you earlier? Gorgeous girls like softwares!!” Aditya had this (Well, used to have) symptom of being completely speechless near girls. So he tried to make his order speak of his feelings and he ordered a couple of “Lamb Delights!” Just after the waiter left, Suneeta turned to him and said “Do you know what they have in these?” Aditya was thinking to ask about what she was ref
