You know how a malignant tumor works. It remains in hibernation for most part of your life and then it suddenly attacks you. The pain it gives you then is most frustrating although you know that the tumor had existed since along time. You always knew that it would attack you on some random day and you will have to take it on without any prior notice , preparation, or consent.
This is what happened yesterday. She was trying to talk to me since a week. But I was suddenly busy with something or the other, which doesn't usually happen considering I am totally jobless right now. I finally called her and she broke the news to me: she was getting engaged. I always knew this news will come about some day or the other, but was just ignoring thinking about it. And then it came. And what a timing!!
We had this pact sort of thing that I will be the first person she will tell about her marriage once the thing is planned. And for the first time, she actually fulfilled her promise, some promise, fulfilling which I would have gladly avoided.
And just like in the movies,when the hero is totally frustrated and decides to leave everything for a great career ahead. thinking of coming back and talking to the girl of his dreams only then, does he get the shock of a lifetime: that the girl is getting married.
But this is how life moves on. She was the only girl I ever had a crush on. Though I always knew there was only a bleak future ahead.
I am about to leave for Germany, not knowing what is in store for me now, except maybe a bright career. But the pain of this malignant tumor, I really don't know when its going to vanquish, for me to start fresh again. Maybe, this was the right time for her to go away, giving me a reason while I am abroad to work on my career, rather than thinking about this silly stuff.
