The next morning I woke up with all my might. I tried to remember exactly what had happened the previous day. The headache, my wet pillow and lot of missed calls reminded me of the conversation we had.

' I LOVE YOU'. Trust me this words only matters once you understand the intention behind it.

I thought the importance of these words when spoken by different people on different occasion. How strange, we understand the same word in different way when spoken by different people.

'I LOVE YOU' was flashing on my phone repeatedly followed by two hearts and a smiley. I was constantly looking at my phone screen trying to calm down. Suddenly Truecaller popped up his number.

I jumped out of bed and ran to the balcony. 'Hey!' he shouted and started playing my favourite tune in his mouth organ. I could not stop myself from smiling and holding back my tears.

A small crowd gathered around him. I saw everyone was admiring him. Of course everyone would admire him. Why they shouldn't. He has extremely sharp features. He plays mouth organ beautifully and yes he is a charmer.

I ran downstairs and I don't know why but I hugged him.

I hugged him in front of 20 odd people. He hold me tightly and whispered in my ears 'I LOVE YOU'. The crowd thought they are watching the trailer of a movie I guess and started clapping. I wondered wow!the day have started well with a bollywood twist.

He was holding me tightly in his arms. I looked into his intense eyes. They were expressing something which words cannot express. Yes, that is how we say sorry to each other.

'You know you are the only one who can do this ' I said . He looked at me confused. 'You can ...well...I mean you can ..umm...leave it.'

I wondered later that why I was unable to complete the sentence. We usually fumble in front of someone we adore, we admire I told myself.

That evening it was raining heavily. I could not hear the sound of my own heart beat. The thunder and lightning were going crazy that time. I was holding my diary in one hand and his mouth organ on the other.

'You are the reason of my existence. I am so happy with you. You know I can't live without you.' cupping his face in my hands I was telling him. He doesn't want anyone to hurt me so he was protective. We actually had an argument over a very mild issue. Ego, how powerful it is. Even when you are in love the ego succeeds love.

'You know this right', I continued .'You always say love is like devotion then why we play this blame game? Correct me if I am wrong we hurt each other because we have expectations which does not gets fulfilled.' He took my hands, I got up from the chair and followed him.

He took me to this very same place where I am standing alone today with my diary, his mouth organ . Everything feels same today it's this dejavu created by the rain.

I stretched my hands and let those magnificent drops of water wash away my thoughts. I prayed deeply to this drops of water to wash away my emotions , my existence.
Alas! they can't because the diary, the mouth organ, the rain everything is same except one thing that is 'me'....
