Last night I had been to the grocery store on my way home. I passed a guy and a girl, the girl having her face dung in her knees. Both seated in front of the store. I looked at them and noticing a bike beside them assumed that the girl must have fallen off and hurt herself. And is crying coz she must be hurt. As I was walking out of the store the guy called me...
Guy: Excuse me!!
Me: Need help??
Guy: Yeah! Please make her drink some water.
Me (to myself): Tough job. I'm not at all the person for such things.
Tried telling her things and make her drink some water but it never worked.
The guy told me that she'd taken medicine in empty stomach.
Guy: I'll get some medicines from the nearest chemist. Will you please take care of her?
Me (to myself again): Medicines again!! Great!! Am I getting myself stuck in a mess?? (to him): Sure!!
The girl said her hands were growing numb. (Now stop being stubborn as a baby and eat the cake he's bought for u gal)
Me (to the girl): Please eat something, you'll feel better. (to myself): Hello, where did you vanish now?? What medicine are you gonna get?? Will the chemist give you anything without prescription?? God!! Come back…
The guy came back and I sighed in relief.
Me: She says she's feeling numb. Better take her to a doctor na.
Guy: She's hurt herself.
Me (to myself): Now now... don't tell me what she's done. Oh please don't!!
(to him): Oh!!
Guy(to the girl): Listen, I'll aid you. This is gonna hurt a little (opening a Savlon bottle)
Me (to myself): Oh no!! No no no...
This doesn't hurt at all. (Thanks a lot god!!) What happened?? (Me and my big mouth, always utter the wrong things at the wrong times)
Guy: She's cut her wrist.
Me (to myself): Girls!!!! (to him): Oh God!! You'd better take he to the doc then. She says her body feels numb. But will she be able to sit not he bike safe?? (Here you go, shut up silly)
Guy: She isn't coming. Can you help me dress the wound? The cut isn't deep anyways.
Me (to myself): Goodness, not me!! You said it so easily; the cut on her wrist isn't deep, but the one on her heart?? Grr... Why am I bothered?? I don't even know if she's actually got a cut or... (to him): Sure!!
She did have a cut, blood all around. I tried to help. I poured cold water so that blood stops oozing. (Luckily it had stopped bleeding by now.) She stirred and that was the end of my helping hand.
Me: Please take her to the doc.
Went to the shop owner and asked him about doctors near by. Lucky that guy made up his mind to take her to the doc. He summoned an auto and they both left. Even I cleared the place. People asking me, "Did she fall off the bike?" And me nodding for a yes while thinking
"Love is the most beautiful experience. It can also turn out to be the most painful one."

Hey isnt it possibe that she cut her wrist coz she flunked... and that guy was her bro...
Good job Seema! Not everyone is so considerate and kind
maybe this is out of context but this is what is riding high on my head now:-D
Hmm..I think love is an overrated emotion especially the type between a couple/girl-boy kind.Its something that grows over years like the one you feel for you Mom/Dad/Siblings...and in todays world where mistrust rules its become more and more difficult to fall in love cos its like letting your gaurd down.
I have no clue why I wrote all that here.Guess weekend effect.
Art: They never looked like siblings. She is working. I asked her having the same thought on my mind. But what ever is the reason, the thought of death, not right.
Neel: Thanks :).
Caffeine: I agree love is being overrated. But if I consider love towards family, it did take me long to realize that I love them all. In act it took me more than 20 years. Guess I realized it only after staying away from home. I kinda consider the same reasoning for love between couples. I realized it only after the person started drifting away from me. And now I guess it’s too late. Just that I never considered death as the rescue.
As i said on one of the previous posts, NOTHING is worth that... The love that He has for you, the love that your parents have for you, the love your pals have for you --- before these everything pales off...
