There are some sporadic incidents which wake me,shake me off my otherwise beautiful blissful monotonous life and make me ponder for a moment.
This fleeting moment effectively lasts for almost a second before fading away.
Only at this time it extended a bit beyond.
Now believe me its not the dust accumulated on my laptop screen or another couple of shirt missing or my wallet/keys missing.
Its something more profound,more moving and spiritual
ever since my dream about Himesh taking up Veena and chanting shlokas.
My flat-mate,God bless Him,left a whole pack of Cadbury's
Gems untouched,unopened.
Now I dont know how much significance Cadbury's Gems
holds in your life,
But as a child I had vowed by keeping my hand on candle (ofcourse the candle wasnt burning,Yeah Yeah as a Kid I used to be smart) than when
I will start earning I will buy a huge Box of Cadbury Gems.
Infact I did fulfil my ambition when I first started earning.
I remember stepping in that General Store(I dont know why they call it a general store,
I specifically wanted Cadbury's Gems and I had strong suspicion they even specifically had it)
Anyway, So here I am in this GENERAL store, slamming
my hand over the counter to grab attention of this
bumbling shop-keeper."Haan Sir,Kya chahiye"(Yes Sir what do You want ?)
For an instant I contemplated the thought of asking something masculine like "Gillete shaving Cream"
or almost every bachelor's staple Diet "Maggi" .
I mean whole Box of Cadbury's Gems,
this guy might think I am a child molester or something on verge of mass rampage.
But This was the moment,the climax of my dream,
So I did what any confident ambitious-man-achieving-his-dream would Do .
I meekly said ,"Bhaiya,CADBURY'S GEMS ka ek packet Hai Kya?"
(Do u have one packet Cadbury's Gems)
The look on his face was as if he had just heard Rabri Devi had beaten Michael Schumacher in Italian Grand Prix.
Anyway,he fetched me a packet.I scuttled out like Britney spears would have, out of
Viveknagar police station avoiding paparazzi without being spotted.
And in the comfortable privacy of my room,I devoured those coloured Gems.
*Chomp*Chomp*
Ofcourse Later I could have bought more.
But somehow I didnt.
A very cliched movie-dialogue is shouting in my head,
almost punching me from inside..
"Some relations are to be left stranded with a beautiful climax."
Thus ended my passionate love-affair with CADBURY'S GEMS.
My childhood sweet-heart. :)
