A Y Generation Love Story - chapter 9 .
Sati returned on Monday morning and shiv dutifully picked her up from the bus stand .
Sati : I have travelled a million times from cmbt to my pg and why do you bother to come this early morning ?
Shiv : wow , I didn't realize that it was a crime .
Sati : dude , just out of care I said . The whole night you were chatting with me , and here you are at 5.30 am to pick me up . Sometimes take care of your health too okay ?
Shiv : that's your department , why would I bother ?
Sati : look at you . Your eyes are so read , big beard, you look like a villan .
Shiv : on the contrary, you look beautiful, much much more beautiful , I love you .yeah especially when you blush like that .
Sati : I dint blush and all .... sati mumbled.
They were waiting in a signal . There came a kid sitting on top of his dad's bike . Once they were next to each other, that kid touched shiv's bike .
"It's his favorite bike , royal Enfield. He urges me to buy this soon"said the man .
Shiv smiled at that kid."trust me your dad's bike is really better than this and your dad is a great rider" he said .
The kid looked at shiv and looked upon his dad for confirmation . That precise moment , the signals turned green . Shiv raced his bike but unfortunately , the kid's bike won the race . The kid turned back and waved at shiv and sati .
Sati: well well , someone lost a bike race today . That's news .
Shiv : nah , that's fine . These are the few moments I celebrate my loss .
Sati : philosophy , early morning ?
Shiv: no . Now according to that kid, his dad would be the best rider , a hero . The best moments in our lives comes only when we realize that our dad is the only super hero we would ever meet . Remember , when everyone scolded us for our poor grades , dad took us for an ice cream . When I wanted a cycle and mom was against it , dad bought it to me , when my teachers complained about me to my dad , I was so ashamed of myself that I ended up in tears . When coming out of school dad said, cheers . Like father , like son . Oie , slept ?
Shiv stopped the bike and turned around to discover , sati silently shedding tears . "Oh my god sati , I didn't mean to hurt you or something , am just an insane idiot , please stop it " .
"No , am sorry . It's just that I wish I had those moments with dad . But am happy . My children would have the best dad in the world . Just that I need to be a stern mother, it's okay . No one ever made me a priority , neither would my children" sati said .
Shiv looked up . All of a sudden pulled a small gift from his tank cover .
"No one ever made you a priority ? Good, have some more self sympathy. Good for you" saying this he handed the gift to her.
"Open it"shiv said .
"I'll open it later, let's go, am getting late"she said .
"Fucking open it now, right now" shiv was all serious .
As she opened it , sati was sure she would die in any moment . It was a scrap book . All her childhood school pics , pictures taken in some of her friends birthday parties , the only school tour they went , the pic of her dad holding her . Every pic was edited , sati was given the focus , her smile was highlighted , her dresses were given shades ,followed by comments from her school and college friends . Every pic bought back memories , some kind of longing in her stomach , a few happy tears , a few tears of sadness , a smile of satisfaction . The last page had few lines from her romeo .
"Dear sweetheart , you are the most wonderful person in this planet. When we decided to do this scrap book , all of your friends whom we contacted came up with such a great response . Oh sati that cute and silent girl, sati is my best friend, three of them actually had a serious fight in the topic of who's best friend was sati . Angels spread happiness, you have did the same thing . You are the best pages of my life . Thank you, for being sati . Someone who will always be there , who would love me unconditionally . Hold me closer , just rest your head on my chest , I would like to take care of you, for the rest of your life . With love, your shiv . Yup . Yours . Only yours.
Sati was smiling , crying , butterflies battled inside , she looked up and simply muttered thanks , thank you so much .
For the first time in their bike ride , sati sat so close to shiv that every time he braked, she ended up kissing his neck or cheek . Needless to say , the road was bad , the traffic was heavy , shiv had to break a lot more than normally he would ever have .
The whole of the office was buzzing with some excitement . Everyone was looking forward for their appraisal meeting and on site opportunities . Dhivya was texting Xavier , sati was texting shiv . Mr. Moorthi , their team leader came .
"Sorry guys, our team didn't make the on site list "
As soon as he said this all four of them stood up and hugged him .
Yeah , they thanked god . A friend who would make sure you don't lose in life , a love who would die for you , a job that would take care of expenses , not luxury , but just expenses , a purpose in life , yup they should be thankful and they were .
The whole office were bewildered .
Guys , make yourself free this Saturday . I am going to take you to a place" Moorthi said .
Where ?shiv asked .
"You know about something called cerebral palsy ?" Asked Moorthi.
They gave a blank stare .
"You will" he said .
Life is beautiful ,
With love ,
