...that people come and go.
You know how they say,
'It is the world of flow'
Some associations are slow,
But some,
Just Come and Go.
I was just thinking about it while entering the university gate and saying Hi/Hello to the gate keepers. I was just scrolling on my gram and posted today's pictures. Hundred likes in fifteen minutes. Not bad, right?
Suddenly, my phone dropped from my hands as I was collided with a handsome guy, who was now sitting in front of me on one knee and was picking my and his books that dropped, after we collided. Surprisingly, he was having a book named, "After We Collided," one of the book from 'After' series, that I read a few months back and made hundred of scenarios in my mind taking me in that book's story.
I started, "I am sorry. I was just on my mobile."
"No it's alright. I was doing the same," he said, having the same smile on his face.
"Thank you," while taking my books from his hands.
"Autumn?" He asks with his one eyebrow raised.
"Yeah."
"Why this diary says the word 'Autumn?'"
"Hah ah...'Autumn' is my name."
"Oh..ho..oho. I am so sorry. Such beautiful name. But why 'Autumn'?"
"I was born in autumn season, that's why."
"OMG. Full of Falls then?"
I made a sad face and when he saw, he immediately apologised and I just made an 'It's okay' face, while inside me was like 'Yes. Many 'Falls.'
After a few seconds of awkwardness, I asked, "What's your name?"
"Oh yeah, my name is Ayn."
"Oh my my. That means 'A' with another 'A' today. Hah aha."
"Yes, luckily"
And like this, we kept walking towards the class. Laughing, smiling and looking towards each other with a little bit of shyness.
He said, "Okay so we will meet soon then?"
In answer I said, "of course. We will."
And like this he left. The day passed and he was still on my mind all the time. When I was going to came back home, I tried to search him but couldn't find him. After roaming half an hour there, I came back home.
I liked his vibes. After so many months, it happened. I saw a friend in someone. I opened the door of my room, turned on the lights while saying, "It's okay. It happens. People come and go."
After a few seconds, I realised what I said. Now I came to know why I met him. But actually it was true, what I read in the morning. I swear myself that 'I wish I took his number' , 'I wish this...', 'I wish that...' But it was all in vain. I changed my cloths and went to sleep.
"People do come and go.
But some, come again
When they came to know,
that you wanted to grow.
Some don't understand,
But,
Some stay there,
Only for you.
What they don't know is that,
You cannot seem to accept the fact
that people come and go."
