A Pirouetting Heart!!!

BEEP BEEP!!! the cell grunted...it was already past midnight and he was trying hard to get some sleep,he has to be in office at early morning tomorrow...irked he picked up the phone-it read '1 new message'.the number was unknown.he pressed the read button..time froze..his hands trembled..he read the message over and over again.at times,its really difficult to come in terms with reality...time has its own trick to play-over you,over me and ofcourse neither was he an exception...his sleep swept past him...memories rushed to fill his numb brain..he can see his past vividly...he can still recall the day when he first met 'her'...memories never die...
Six years back,he calculated,yes,six years back he spoke with her for the first time...the conversation was short but the twitch of the conversation was throbbing enough....the next day he called her...she wasnt at home..he called her again...but still she was unavailable...he went back to his study room,which suddenly felt so suffocating,so alien....but then he had to concentrate.he had an assessment the next day...'life is not a movie.One phone call does not change anything...'he made himself understand...he whisked through the pages of his notebook...and then,the phone rang...he smirked!!
'Am getting the call'-he pretended to be composed,but then the mirth in his face glowed!!!he was sure-'it has to be her'-he reaffirmed himself....'Hello!!this is me'-those three words were enough to get his heart pounding..he was waiting for it from such a long time!!!they kept on speaking..it never really mattered if any of them made sense or not...it was one of those days when subject dint matter,but the conversation did...he was happy...so was she-atleast he thought so!!!
'Fuck Man!!why did it rain today!!'-he never had been fond of the tears from the clouds..it made him feel dejected..depressed...rejected.he planned to visit her home today.it turned him off...
'If this is how it has to start,so be it!I AM GOING!'-he murmured!!In an hour he left home to the utter disbelief of his parents,but he was unperturbed...he had to meet her..he had to meet her that very day...rain could not dampen his spirits...he was flying high!!
