Chapter 11
Delhi
Walking like teenagers freshly fallen in love, Tara and Shekhar holding each other’s hand walked into Crossword. Crossword – Paradise for the Book loving souls. The walk from the Hotel to the Crossword was as lovely as it used to be 11yrs back when they were dating.
This impromptu stay at Delhi is nothing less than a Blessing in Disguise for their relationship. May be they needed this, mouthed Tara to herself while Shekhar was browsing his favourite genre. Tara could never argue whether Shekhar loved her more or the books, novels , novellas he was always engrossed into. Tara too started browsing books to accompany her book-worm husband.
In other corner of the Crosswords, a law student was having an hard time solving a puzzle. Puzzle, that Jennifer hoped could help her unravel the mysteries behind that letter.
~Why is this Puzzle so important to you? asked a lil’ annoyed Cyrus Daruwala.
~And I thought Lawyers were intelligent ! Smirked Jennifer Joseph.
~Very Funny! See, I am a Law student not a Arts student replied cyrus making an ‘I am fed up with this puzzle’ face.
~Awwww!! Let’s try once more. Last time for today pleaded Jennifer making a puppy face.
~Alright! Alright!!
“Time is supreme power, Love is ultimate weakness…Human chasing power, seldom values emotional wealth!Money may be aim for many, does that repay for broken promises and unfulfilled commitments?I, in the crowd of many, is lonely inside…I, in the search of truth, haven’t lived lie?Lie, colourless-rude and brutal…I have been a living lie… since long…I have been a lie…In pursue of love and happiness, I have been a lie!”
Finished Cyrus in one go without a pause or a moment to catch a breath.
~That was the most ridiculous way of reading something written so beautifully. You just killed the essence of the whole Poem. How could you Cyrus?
~ In my Defence, I would like to point out that sitting with a sexy girl in Crossword solving a puzzle is not my idea of a ideal Date, mumbled Cyrus.
~ You are highly mistaken Mr. Stranger, this is not a Date, replied Jennifer with a shy smile.
Whatever! Let’s forget this puzzle solving game of yours for some time, pleaded Cyrus.
Jennifer couldn’t control her smile seeing how irritated Cyrus looked at that very moment.
