PLEASANT ENCOUNTER

It was a lovely evening with water drizzling like tiny pearls from the sky. Raj was walking down the lane. He was tired of all the hard day's work. It was 5:00 in the evening he was out from work. He had to walk for 15mins to reach his bus stop. As it was drizzling and the road's all wet and with puddles here and there he had to watch his step. "I hope I get a bus soon I don't wanna stand there for a long time like day before"thought he. Raj was cursing his boss as he was walking,there was a small lane to his right which cut through the road he was walking. He went right past the lane but suddenly stopped. As they say his heart skipped a beat. He did not move, taking a step or two behind, he stood straight to the lane and turned right just to see his favorite actress standing there. He was spell bound. His mind stopped cursing, it even stopped working. He was looking at her and only her. Her smile, her eyes, he was drowned in her presence. He was admiring her every bit. The way she carried her saree, the way her hair danced to the wind's tunes. Before he could get hold of the moment it just passed by as she got into her car and went away. He stood right there with eyes wide open for the next 5mins. "Hey you! move aside" said a lady, startled for a sec raj who was flying in the sky returned back to ground. He was blinking as if a somnambulist suddenly woke up. He started scolding himself for not making a move still he was happy and really proud that he saw her. His excitement was over the top he couldn't stop smiling. He was talking to himself. He could not wipe the smile off his face. He hopped into the bus and reached his house. Raj knew that its just an actress and not somebody close to him. Yet, he was not able to get down from cloud 9. He is not a guy who does crazy stuffs as a fan and he knows that she has done nothing to him but if he is happy, relieved off his daily tension just by looking at her or hearing her name then whats wrong in being a fan. The whole day he forgot everything and kept calling everybody "guess what" as he started went on and on. That night in a news channel she was interviewed and she was saying about the different places she visited for promoting her movie that day and she didn't even mention the place where the encounter happened. He smiled to himself and still kept calling everybody. The important thing is that he is happy and that is all that matters. Raj has not been this happy for a really long time. He'll never forget this pleasant encounter. The day passed and the next day everything was back to the usual work, office, tension. Obviously the actress would not know what she did to him but she sure made his day.

  1. Hey Harry,
    U have done a pretty good job. Looks like u have other career options too :P.U are multi talented person , i can say.I was able to feel the frustration of the guy as i feel it almost all time.Well as for me, i guess am not as lucky as Raj, but if i do see a hoarding of my favorite actress or actor that will be my pleasant encounter. If i get to my favorites in real, then it would be a dhamaka.He smiled to himself? Let me guess, he was grinning from ear to ear.Am i right ?

  2. The title should have been "Yemaindhi Ee Vela".I think Venkatesh's acting inspired you to copy that script. [:P]
