There i was sitting in my cubicle in the ODC jus like any
other normal day.Suddenly the cell on my desk makes a beep sound.I move my eyes away from my computer to glance at my cell for a
second.I could see i had received a message.With least interest i just try to see the
senders name bcos usually i get only advertising messages very often.But to my
surprise the message sender was my friend.She sits in the next cubicle to
me.Before i opened the message i just stand up to peep into her cubicle.She
was missing on her desk.I wondered what the message was about. I opened the
message and it read "come outside,It may rain now."Not a second thought and within a moment my system was locked and there i was
standing outside my ODC near the lake view.The cool breeze,the cloudy weather,and many ppl waiting there desparately for
it to drizzle.sounds funny but that is how it is here...because the
temperature here is more than 40 degree everytime and rain is just like guest
appearance here most of the times.
I too was one
among the many glancing at the sky.It was a weekday so few people went
back to their ODC once they finished drinking a cup of coffee/tea.Few more people were out talking over the cellphone and hardly
noticed the clouds or may be were not interested.Work was more important anyday.But not the same for me,i was still standing
there outside looking at the sky..I could see the clouds moving and the sky all set to pour some drops.A guy who made his time outside for
sometime saw me standing there eagerly and said "Nice weather
rite?",I said "yes". He stood there for sometime watching the
climate.He also said "Hope this climate continues"...I added saying
"yes,hopefully".I was desperate for rain drops.It was more than 15 minutes now and the
crowd reduced...People lost patience and again went back to their work.The guy too moved away and before leaving he just told me
"enjoy".I said "sure".May be he could read the
excitement on my face.
After sometime,
Finally it did rain,a lil drizzle on the earth, and there i was standing
outside feeling the drops of rain,i jus moved my left hand to feel it at
first,It felt wow!! Remebered those days when me and my friends purposely
forget umbrella just because it would be one reason to escape from blastings at home when we get drenched. I
could recall every single memory i had with rain since my childhood.Also
realised that this busy new life had made me miss all that now....There i was
now feeling the drops thats about to touch the earth with both my hands.I bent
little ahead and now the raindrops kissed my cheeks and then the
ground.I luved getting drenched after a long time.
It really feels
great when u come out of ur work and make sum time for urself,live ur life the
way u want to, just simply luv doing it most of the time.It may be jus for few
minutes or seconds but it will be cherished ever.
good read da... :) i too wanna drench in rain right now!! :o
