A random rambling….
I knew this boy who loved a girl passionately. Like in a fairy tale, he proposed her. They dated and got married happily. They were so much in love, in awe of each other. They danced their way happily into a couple of blissful years of married life. While getting dressed, too often they would end up dancing in front of mirror for any and every song. No, neither of them was good at that but they did.
Then the boy one day chanced upon hearing a song. It was a soulful melody. A haunting one at that. He told her about that song. She heard it a couple of times and fell for that. That’s when it all began. They both heard that song every night before sleeping. Couple of weeks later, they found themselves listening to the same song, day in day out. He did it at work, she did at work, and they both did the same at home. They became so dependent on the song that they used to hear it every night on a repeat mode until they dozed off.
A couple of months later, the boy got fed up with the song and he stopped listening it. Slowly she too did the same. They were still happy, very much in love. The boy wondered what ever happened to that song.
It’s been really long since I heard from him. But the last time I spoke to him, he said the above story and was wondering about how he remembers just those days of 7 long years companionship with her.
I said it was a memory that he will cherish for a long time. When everything else around him changes, these handful of memories are what that stay with him.
Listening to this he said he was waiting, for the next song that is.
