Love Butterfly Effects


Bye.” The girl said, looking in his eyes for the last time.

“I will miss you.” The guy spoke in a woeful voice.

Sitting on a bench, they both were looking in each other’s eyes forgetting the whole world around them.

Those four years of togetherness were going to end in an instant.

The train had finally arrived on the station.

He accompanied her to her compartment. He made sure she kept all her bags properly.

They both sat together holding their hands for a few minutes, till the train gave its last signal to proceed.

Their eyes were numb and words got frozen.

They were constantly looking in each other’s eyes, but didn’t utter a single word.

“Please don’t go.” The boy spoke his heart out in his mind.

He was silently praying to god that this moment won’t ever come to a halt.

All those cherished memories of their togetherness, came in a flash in front of them.

Like, the first time they both saw each other.

The way he secretly used to look at her in the class while they were sitting for the lectures.

The time when they started talking on phone for hours without a single pause in between.

Their frequent hang outs together.

When they both fell in love and never figured out when it happened.

When they tried studying together but never finished a single chapter.

When he ate half of her ice-cream saying that the one he is already having is flavorless.

That moment when they both kissed for the first time.

All these recollections of those precious memories, surrounded them, in this so called last-minute’s engagement of their life.

Finally, the train’s siren rang.

The guy holds her in his arms and hugs her firm for the last time.

They forgot everything around them for those few seconds.

The guy gave a peck on her forehead and went outside the compartment.

He stood in front of her window, smiling, and waved her a final goodbye.

He pretends to smile but from inside, he was going to burst in tears.

The girl fought her tears as well.

Slowly, the train started moving ahead. He waved at her, she waved at him and finally he saw her disappearing from his sight.

Three years later…

The guy still comes on the same platform, sits on the same bench and remembers their final meeting.

He knows that she is gone from his life forever. But still, he shows up where he once waved her ‘The last goodbye’.

 

I hope we are born someday in a world where I and you fall head over heels in love with me like I fell for you.
