Let us start Feb 14th celebrations. As a piece of mine, I want to write a small story everyday (not exactly) till 14th. Some of these stories are real and some are not. Unfortunately, most of the stories end with a heartrending break up. Today’s story is one that sort.
14th Feb, 200X.
The two met and wished each other “happy valentine’s day!” No one knew what their relation was. Suspect yeh hai ki, even they didn’t know what they were. Friends? Or Lovers? She never thought someone would love her till the day she was introduced to him by a close friend. As she expected, he brought a small gift for her. She was happier than ever to confirm her suspect. She took it and said “thanks so much” with her heartiest smile of shy. He was looking into her eyes and she couldn’t.
She was tensed as if it was her chemistry exam and felt everyone around was observing her. She handed him the gift to hold and said that she would take it while leaving. After sometime, she left for the work without taking the gift. He was disappointed by her behavior. What a stupid she was? If she didn’t like him, why did she take the gift first? And why did she give it back?
After a few days, when they got closer than before, she asked him about the gift. He said that he had thrown that in dustbin, reasoning her atypical behavior. She asked him to tell at least what that gift was. He never said. After few more days, she asked him again about that gift. Then he said that he had given that to someone else.
Before long, they became good friends (Lovers?). They had given a shoulder to each other and fought sometimes too. They were parted and had gone in different pathways.
She asked him again about that gift when they met. He said that it was with him, but he misplaced it. Even knowing everything, she didn’t stop asking him about the gift whenever they met and he didn’t stop giving reasons.
She asked herself, why the hell she didn’t take the gift when she should. And why she was after that when everything was over? She whispered to herself that she told him when she was about to leave and waited for few minutes expecting that he would give that gift back. She left as she was nervous to ask him the gift.
She wanted to know what that gift was, as it was given on a special day by a special person of her life, the one who taught her many things or rather who had been a co-learner on the training grounds of life. He used to say, “When you love someone, tell them. It doesn’t make you lesser. Let your heart be completely filled with love; keep no place for ego, jealous, and anything else on the earth”
She loved him, might not as much as he loved her. But he never believed. They broke up their doubtful relation (love) as they thought they weren’t for each other. They strengthened their intact link (friendship) and moved on. But she kept on asking him about the gift

I think he still wonders, how his girl forgot to take that gift from him on that special day leaving a question in his mind - How could she forget that when she really loved him?
Praveen, she didn't forget. she was shy.
