Dreams are meant for sleeping.......

The sweating arms and backs of the Calcuttans brushed past my skin...i was disgusted and tried to make my way amidst the swarm of people who seemed to be running for their lives. I looked up.

Time stopped around me and everything melted away to create a dizziness. The whole world seemed to do a somersault when his eyes caught mine...looking into those russet-brown eyes i remembered why i'm here...why i managed to feel like i'm flying as the scorching summer heat scalded my skin.....

He ran across the street towards me..a twinkling smile on his face...his hair winnowing in the wind....

He's like a dream when i'm not sleeping....

I choked on my own breath...it was unfair how he could paralyze me with just a smile...

"Hey...hows it going sweets?" he asked.

"I'm just fine....purple suits you," i smiled at his shirt.

"Thanks...you look gorgeous," he smiled back....his smile a zillion times prettier than mine.

We sat below a shady banyan tree, on a cemented pavement.

"I got you a little something," i said.he looked at the little crystal heart that rested on my palm.

"Ohhhh.....that's ravishing...just like you," he winked at me.

His phone buzzed.

"Hello??oh yeah...hell yes!! i totally forgot..!! never mind...yeah yeah...i'll be up and about in 5 minutes..sure sure.."

"Hey sweets," he continued "It's work...i'm really sorry but i have to go...it just pops up anytime...will catch up with you sometime later."

He stood up and tried to stash the cellphone in his pocket...my crystal heart slipped through his fingers and shattered on the pavement.

"Oh...i'm so damn sorry..." he apologized while gathering the pieces, "it just slipped! will make it up to you bigtime! gotta go, take care..I love you!", he took my palm and placed my broken heart atop.

I kept staring at him till the selfish Calcutta crowd blocked my view.

As i clenched my fist, my knuckles screamed in protest when the shards of crystal pierced my skin....i could feel the wetness of the blood....

Now i knew....dreams are meant for sleeping....

When i closed my eyes it was no longer the scorching sun....but a mild breeze was blowing...it was a day when everything changed...a day when he would see through my superficial looks to the depth of my heart....a day when he would promise to take better care of my heart....a day when he would say that he loves me...and would mean it.

"And still............................I love him," i mumbled like an idiot.
