THE APOLOGY....

The skies bid farewell to the insignia of twilight as Dusk starts to set in…..

The brilliant white moon is soon draped in a mysterious veil that changes its hues from blue to an inexplicable black….

Amidst the grandeur of nature….surrounded by the snow-clad pines and the occasional sounds of insects…they stand….

They stand looking in opposite directions…they stand with their foreheads thrown  into a million folds….

Noses in the air…..eyes not focussing…waiting….waiting for the other to take the lead…

A waft of cold wind blows against her face...leaving her shivering and quivering…

Though she overdoes the “aah” that escapes from her small pink lips..in the hope that the rascal would hear her…

He does not stir….

Shouldn’t he  realise how much she craved the warmth of his arms? why was he being such an idiot? Couldn’t he simply admit he’d made a mistake and apologise?

The wind carries to him her scent…the fragrance he identifies with her…

He desperately wants her to rest her head on his shoulder…that way he can have as much of that lovely aroma as he wanted…hold her delicate hands and keep looking at them….

But for her….

Why did she have to be a jerk? How difficult was it to say those three little words…

              “I Am Sorry”

Well fine,if she wanted to be so obstinate, two could play that game….

Thinking so,he turned to give her another of those disgusting looks he had by now gained expertise over….

When he caught her looking back at him, with a face even more disgusted…

Of course it was meant to offend him…but the way her little nose moved up in that crooked way…and her eyes focussed in on him… it was comical….

She could see he was trying to hide a smile…she hardly found anything funny….yet the sight of him...with that expression. Well it was something…

She tried… tried hard to hold on to her anger…and not get carried away…

But….she’d made that mistake… fell into the trap she always did… she had looked into those eyes…

One look at her, and he knew he couldn’t resist her anymore…this invisible force was pulling him towards her…and for some unfathomable reason…she was moving towards him too…..

….Soon arms locked….the frowns changed to blushing smiles…and like all their fights this one was settled too….

A mild whisper that said…..”I Love You”
