77 seconds later

As her frantically entered, his eyes searched for her in midst of crowd.

There she is, he sighed

She was sitting in the corner of waiting hall with sweat dripping from her head from last night packing. Next to her was her father snoozing on the summer day over the blanket.

As he went towards her, he had thousand questions in the heart and an piercing eyes wanting to know "why she left him uninformed?"

She was his office crush of 2 years and now she was moving away to her home town on a sudden transfer. He was waiting for an farewell message from her but she chose to leave him in silence. He got the wind at the last moment, thankfully his favorite bike didn't ditch him and got to the railway station as its about time she's gonna leave.

Her eyes are unable to comprehend his frantic emotions .

With an usual curious look , she asked " What"

He was like " I came to ask you to be with me, as my love. why you chose to leave me before I propose" but as the deep breath of her father interrupted his emotions , he chose to remain silent.

He just echoed " Nothing, I came to send you off ,hope you got everything before you leave"

She with an unassuming voice told " Ya I packed off things last night and dad helped me to finish the leaving formalities and now we at railway station for the train"

Then with the stumbled words he said "Ok, I got this for you in this train", showing his empty hands

She got curious again , the way she maintains the looks with unsuspecting innocence in her eyes, makes him fall for her again and again.

Then with an blushing smile he gave the snacks from his bag and wished her good luck in the new place.

The train racks came into the platform and it was time to leave.

He wanted to hug her with an kiss planted on her forehead but then he chose not to make the situation awkward in front of her dad.

Then she came in every night in his dreams chasing him towards her love.

3 months later~~

He called up on her and asked if they can meet. His heartbeat is desperately looking for an yes as he already reached the height of desperation and he had to make it happen.

She in a cool voice told "Ok, am there this Saturday come over".

This was the moment he was waiting on ,

He started for cursed his overnight journey and prayed over all the gods in a hope to ask her hand.

He was new to the city ,being an alien to its language and roads doesn't seem to flutter him. He came for her and hes gonna impress her no matter what.He called up on her and they decided to meet on a mall before she moves on to her next appointment.

He came there 20 minutes earlier rehearsing like an every guy who's preparing for propose only be stumbled on words later.

She came in and he forgot his words already. They spoke something out of context and he kept nodding trying to pull out the words.

Curse the hesitation ,he thought.

Finally it came time for them to part. They came outside of mall and hes still trying on the way to bus stand with usual boring parting discussions.

We arrived at the bus stand while he was looking for an chance.

77 seconds later ~~~

Einstein's time dilation suddenly made sense. He cant lose this moment to another chance or her to anyone else.

Without another thought ,he said " May i hold your hand".

Another curious eyebrow rose on her face.

He again said with a confident smile "May i hold your hand forever"

She got confused, then blushed and from there, things got easy.

And guys this is how i met the girl of my life :)

உன் அருகில் பெண்ணே

இருள் விலக காற்றொன்று
மேகம் தனை விலக்கும்
வெண்ணிலவே உன் வானில்
இடம் தருவாயா?
கோடையில் மழை பார்த்து
புற்கள் எங்கும் சிரிக்கும்
அழகே உனை பார்த்து -பூக்களும் சிரிக்கிறதே
இப்புன்னகை எக்காலமும்
என்னோடு துணை வருமா?

நிற்காமலே நிகழ் காலமே
என் நினைவொன்று உனை சுற்றுதே

இராஜ ஹம்சாவில் ஏறி நீ -பறந்திட துணிந்தாய்
கருடனாய் உனை கவர்ந்தேன்
தீபிகா இக்கள்வனை அறிவாயா?
என் கைகள் உனை பற்ற
கடல்கள் ஏதும் பெரிதல்ல
மங்கையே என் மனம் உணர்வாயா?
பல கேள்விகள், வெறும் மவுனங்கள்
உன் வார்த்தையில் நாம் வாழ்க்கை
தொடங்கும் நாளும் வாராதோ?

நிற்காமலே நிகழ் காலமே
என் நினைவொன்று உனை சுற்றுதே
நிற்காமலே நிகழ் காலமே
சங்கீதா உன் முத்தம் கேட்குதே
உனை அணைத்த
நொடியொன்று போதும்
இதயம் தானாய் இடம் மாறுதே
காதல் இத்தனை மாயம் என்று
உன்னோடு சேர்ந்த பின்னே தெரிகிறதே.
