We
may be living in different cities and not being able to meet everyday
as we used to do like 10 years ago.
We
may be keeping tap of each others' lives through social media and
sharing delightful messages showing our incessant love.
Family
priorities might have taken a front seat in our lives, but girls I
miss you. I miss the incidences which brought you in my life, making
you my friends I would never like to go.
Every
time a photo from past rolls before my eyes, I reminisce the good
times, we spent together. The laughs we shared and the cold wars we
embroiled in with others, most of the time because the person has
annoyed you for some reason.
Every time I see teenage girls riding
scooties, it makes me remember the tripling rides we used to take. I
may be taking movie dates quite frequently now, but the first one
with our group has always been a sweet memory.
I miss the days when
our major heartbreak was getting low marks in Literature. I miss
eating lunch in the back seat just because one of us was hungry.
Sometimes the bittersweet nostalgia is so strong, I can almost taste
it through my tears.
Life
has showed how fast it can become, as our elders used to say. Over
the years that followed after we made our separate choices that took
us in different directions, we made new friends and colleagues, some
of them close enough. We may not be able to make time for each other
like before, sometimes almost none. Our friendship might have taken a
new age route- mostly through text messages and Facebook posts. We
might go days, weeks even years without face-to-face conversations-
but once we are back , we are back being like before.
Only
God knows if we will be able to find time like before and recreate
the magic, but I would always cherish those memories.
I will always miss our days!
I will always miss our days!
