November 11th - A Special Day

Nov 11 - Eleven is usually a lucky number for me and this ones 11/11. A very special day for me. Especially because of something that happened exactly 2 yrs back. Not only that it was Diwali but also the day I first spoke to that special person. I knew little that something that started on 11/11/2004 would end in 4/4/2006. Yeah it seems to have ended but its still very special.

The first time I saw her I couldn't help admiring. She apparently had that quality I looked for in a girl... innocence! I thought she was beautiful and her name every Indian would associate with Beauty.... No I'm not saying the name :) I was quite restless to talk to her. No matter how hard I tried to draw her attention towards me she wouldn't care to look. I had a feeling she never even looked. A week later I made up a plan to talk to her and she feel for it. I was lucky to get her phone number and it was on this day we first spoke!!

What started like a casual thing turned to become something serious. I wont deny the fact that she started gaining importance in my life. Usually a person who's early to bed will wait till late in the night just to see her online and tease her. I knew she liked it when she said 'Jack.. you amuse me' , 'I enjoy talking to you' ... so on and so forth. We regularly started communicating with each other through SMSs. It was because of her I started using SMSs as that became the way we communed. Slowly as months passed we started discovering that there were lot of differences of opinions between us. We fought but patched up very soon. It was a beautiful time in life's journey.

As every good thing will come to an end how can this be an exception?? After a year and a half for some unexplainable reasons I decided to call it quits because she was something different than what I imagined. Our beliefs or sentiments were different. I felt she lacked many things I expected in a girl. The best part is till date we had never met in person. It all started with me and ended with me 'coz I hardly ever understood what she was thinking.

The memories of our first speaking is fresh in my mind and today they disturb me. Thats when I thought I will share it with you. I have purposefully not revealed her name and if you think you know her please keep it yourself and if you don't I leave it your imagination. Theres one another special person in my life... will talk about it when time comes.
