What If?! (A Tiny Tale)



That night there was an epiphany.
He had a cricket match against Pakistan the next day.
He stopped for a bit and a couple of minutes later made a ISD call again on the same cellphone number.
"Yeah?! What happened?" she asked worryingly.
He thought for a moment and consciously asked, "Will you marry someone whose life is of a size of kit bag?".

A heartbeat skipped. She gasped and replied with joy, "Yes. Of course you idiot! I've been waiting for you to say this for so long!"

And this time it was a slightly different MSD story than the one we all know about.


Its an alternate route which could have been possible for MSD's life. May be he couldn't stop the mishap which was going to happen the next day, but he could have definitely saved himself from the burden of not saying what she wanted to hear.
Often there are times in our lives when we don't say what we are meant to. We make decisions we regret later. We get succumbed either by our ambitions, routine, obligations, responsibilities and what not. In this chain of events we sometimes forget what makes us happy and what will actually stay with us.
But having those choices made already, we later think what could have been possible if we took the alternate route.

"What if I didn't opt this route?"

"What if I simply trusted my instincts and went with the flow to say it all?"

More than anything else, we regret that we made someone wait to hear those words and one day we realize that its too late now.
When we go through this line of thought, we learn a lot about the tricks life plays with us.

The tiny story depicted above asks us to be reciprocative and too believe in our intuitions. If it feels right, why wait? Trust me, there will never be a time when you feel you're ready for it. The point is to say what you feel before it's too late.
