THE IDEA

Are people in love or just in love with the idea a "love"?
Its a question we all have asked atleast once in our lives to ourselves , so did Ross . Ross was one of those guys whom you generally ignore until and unless you have no other option . By fate or by teacher's will whatever you consider Ross was seated next to Diane . Diane , was an introvert converted into an extrovert , she was the person whom anyone felt comfortable talking to . Ross being his awkward self started blabbering and she just smiled , the class ended and she headed straight for the door . Ross gathered all his courage and went behind her to ask her number , she gave a skeptical look, and hesitantly gave her number , Ross gathered his wits and explained that as they were seated together and are obviously going to be partners having each others phone numbers will make it easier to exchange notes , her phone started ringing and she bid her goodbye . 
Next day they again met but this time for practicals and not just any practicals but physics . Physics was Ross's worst enemy and so he didn't even pretend to  be a nerd about it , he let Diane take the lead . Diane was smart atleast Ross thought she was smart she started the experiment instantly and continuously explained Ross each step. Ross liked this , she didn't treat him like a retard which of course he was not , he was just weak in physics .The practical ended soon and for the first time all their results were correct and the professor was also impressed . After being dismissed they didn't go their own ways rather they decided to go for a walk along the campus . Diane had never roamed the campus "after hours " although she always wanted to , Ross being the wanderer considered colllege "after hours " was the best time to be in college . Ross showed Diane all around the  campus and at the end of the tour decided to take her to the terrace . Ross was actually feeling happy about sharing this experience with her , he himself was surprised because he doesn't let anyone wander along , he prefers solitude most of the time . They reached the terrace and the Sun was setting making it the perfect panoramic veiw , Diane just stared and was just admiring the view , Ross was admiring her , he was enthralled by the calmness of her face and also by the smirk which she was trying to hide . Then she looked right at him , she caught him staring at her but she didn't scowl , rather she just fixed her gaze on him and he also slowly fixed his gaze on her . He saw her saw , not like all the other times he has seen them but really saw them , they were a direct doorway to her soul , he could see the darkness and he wondered what she could see in his eyes , probably his shitty past and the ass of a person he has become . They just gazed at each other in utter silence , the Sun was already past the horizon and they realized it was time to leave but neither of them wanted to . Suddenly they hear a thump on the terrace door , Scared they just hid behind the walls , a man entered after bolting the door open and was calling them out , as he suspected someone had sneaked , neither of them made any sound . They curled up against each other to avoid being seen , after a few minutes the man left and they decided to leave . Slowly they went near the door , opened it a bit and scouted the visible range it was all clear and they proceeded , once they came down the stairs they dashed out of the campus . After they both were out of the campus , they stopped to catch their breath and broke into laughter ,Ross was happy after a long time , he had forgotten the existence of happiness but Diane maybe that last thread which can pull him into the light . Soon they gathered their wits and bid their goodbyes and parted ways .
The next brought a whole new set  of circumstances ......................

THE TAX OF HAPPINESS

Happiness a wonderful drug which we are addicted to since birth . At first , life just throws happiness at you , luring you in , getting you addicted and just when you think that yes , i have reached a state of inner peace , life starts asking for tax .  Is the feeling of happiness enough to pay the tax ? what is the tax ? Well, its basically anything that makes you unhappy , from minor inconveniences to major fall throughs ,  All falls in the theory of yin and yang , the balance of life  . Without us realizing  it  life does balance it out . Each moment of happiness is equalized with each moment of pain , so we are kept neutralized .  Maybe life doesn't want anyone to be completely happy . What is complete happiness ? a brief moment which passes by in the blink of an eye. How many times can you handle the balance of life ?how many times can you pay the tax , till you decide not to smile at all?

RUN

I was running I looked around , it was a dimly lit street with sparse traffic I had my earphones on , so i was in my own universe I kept on running , for miles it seemed I am not an athletic person , but something was different today It felt like i was running from something , but couldn't tell what exactly it was Was i running from decisions ? ambition ? love ? commitment ?  With each leap i took I felt the communication with my soul was closing But i didn't stop I wanted to leave my soul behind And run far away My life flashed before me the first day of college , his smile , our first date And then our ridiculous fights , the break up night Suddenly a white light shined over me .. and something hit me i was on the road and then there was complete darkness.... I could feel my body come to absolute rest with excruciating pain......

A GLANCE

She walks by , and his heart skips a beat Her boyfriend comes along , and  the heartache returns  again Then in class, their eyes meet , She saw right through his eyes , his love , his pain At night , she was entangled in her thoughts He was only thinking of her dark purple eyes They didn't know they were bonded Days passed , Conversations started with a simple gesture The day came , When he standing in a black tuxedo And she was in Pearl white silhouette And again there eyes met It was meant to be ! They knew it And all it took was a glance .
