"Hello!!!"
"Hi...ssup?"
"Not much...how's the party going?"
"Good...yes, its going good."
(long pause)
"So...why didn't u come?"
"I had some work...sorry couldn't make it."
"You know you cannot lie na?"
"You know why I didn't come."
"Yes...you've been avoiding me off late."
"Yes...you've been avoiding me off late."
"No...I'm trying to make things as they should be."
"Why can things not be how I want them to be?"
"Coz u deserve better."
"And who are you to decide what I deserve?"
"A friend...I think."
"Friends do not hurt each other..."
"Yes...but they do warn each other of wrong choices."
"Why the hell is my choice wrong?"
"Coz you desire something which you cannot have."
"Why is it so?"
"Because it is not within me to give you....it does not exist."
"I refuse to believe that it does not exist..."
"It did once..it does no more!!!"
"It did once..it does no more!!!"
There was a finality in that statement which told her that the conversation was over. As she put down the receiver the tears rushed out engulfing her in despair and deject, a pain of rejection hit her very senses, a feeling of numbness crept about and yet amongst all that she knew he was right...her choice was wrong, she did desire something which did not exist.
It hardly mattered that it was the only thing she desired.

Holy ****! What is wrong with you? What's with all the depression, bhai? Ah, well... I can hardly complain against melancholia, but whatever... it was really good by the way.
well, expectation and desires can make u; if not, kills u... nicely composed brother...
Nice write up...
But on a general note, do everyone gets what they desires..? Is rejection a solution for that.. Dont know..i consider this piece to be a fiction.. And then i say, gud fiction..!!

Sometimes somethings are jus not meant to be! Well written buddy!!

**she did desire something which did not exist.
I dun think its a bad thing to desire something that does not exist. cos often desiring things that exist make us more miserable!
And as they say life happens...
