NEVER AGAIN IN....

"Breathe without you....But I have to
 Never wanted this,never wanna see you hurt...
 People are people and sometimes it never works out...
 Breathe without you....But I have to...."

8:20 PM- April 16

Karthik switched ON his samsung galaxy.A popup messsage read,"Sorry to say this da,our friend Kevin expired last night..".Karthik was perplexed.He was keeping tabs with his friends.The once famous friendship circle for which he was known for had now shrunk to the level of clean water in the nostalgic chennai adayar river.The phone calls then made were just that of conforming consolation.Kevin...the one who spoke to karthik ,the week before was no more. Karthik saw this coming but was unaware of this early occurence.

'What max you could do? Cry for a night?? a week??.Life moves on Kart"-consoling words from Ram with whom Karthik had earlier planned to have his dinner.

The finest and the foulest events in life happens not by our choice but by the random pattern of Universe.The more you try to understand,,the more you become a less sociopath.

Considering himself as a high time sociopath,Karthik just gave in a deep breath and said whimpering,"You'll be missed Kevin..".Nothing more..the emotions entered there.

Emotions when succumbed inside due to environmental interactions,always thrusts out with high octane gas pressure.

10.00 PM-April 16

Summer time in chennai is always welcomed with increase in price of air coolers,rise in price of tender coconut and ofcourse an ardent repudiation of the running government power cuts. Karthik,still was in a sober mood and was alone upstairs whilst his parents were having dinner.Consolation conforming calls followed and along came the message ,"She got engaged Karthik...A relative of her's doing..." all the blah blah...But,nothing was heard after the first sentence.A blanked out world with perplex around.

9:45 AM-April 20

She was wearing black and blue combo attire. Karthik was in his white and blue jeans."Hey I haven't seen you for the past weeks...Busy??"-asked the girl with her 'mm' smile.

"Hmmm..yeah!I was a bit occupied.But..excuse me..do we know each other..?"

"Guess..yes..I have seen you atleast a dozen times there,sitting upstraight in that corner and reading till late evening.."

"Yes..I come here on week ends.."

"Hmmm..I know...I have seen you..A couple of times in IIT too"

"Ya..I had a couple of friends there"

"Okay..I am Anushya...Shweta's junior..You are karthik right..."

"Right...Thanks..if you don't mind shall I meet you by the corridor.I have these books to be arranged""

"Ya..sure..ciao downstairs.."

Having got to know about each other the contact was then on through mail.Karthik's secluded life was now and then intruded by the new breeze across

10:30 PM-May 4,Station Road,Santacruz station,Mumbai

"Kart,this is too much..You better should've stayed in chennai..You come here with the 'gang-bang'group & yet you prefer to put up a dignified face.You think you're a saint?? Idiot.."-Ankita was as good as a philosopher when it comes to the matter of advising Karthik.

"What do you want Matty?? I am enjoying.Keeping my mouth 'mum' doesn't mean I am out of mood.Just put your untuned voice off"

'Listen..none here matches your intellectual ability..We all are aware that you are gifted..Idiot you deserve better man..Just let it go...Certain things are beyond control"

"Thanks..Am perfectly on due course and let not my personal be discussed here Matt..'

'Take care Karthik..We all are here"

"Thanks Matt.."

The breeze now started blowing across..But NEVER AGAIN IN....
