he waited for sunrise...

They had been together for yrs...sharing joys and sorrows and taking turns being the lantern, when the other was lost in darkness.. forgetting and forgiving every mistakes, rejoicing in each others success and achievements, sharing every secrets, talking on all the topics under the sun..it was a dream come true... he thought..if there is something beautiful in this world, then it is this friendship..unmatchable, unbreakable..and she kept reiterating..you are the best i have and you ll remain so...doesn't matter whoever comes in my life...he was happy..as he wished...a friendship never to be broken..so even in his worst nightmares, he couldn't dream of an end for their friendship.

but now he has tears in his eyes.. he stood there as a toddler who is now falling in each step he makes forward..yes for him a life without her friendship is like starting to live from scratch.. as far his memories could travel, he couldn't remember a time when she was not with him as an inspiration or support..irrespective of the distance, she was there with him to console, to rejoice..and now in a moments time she seems to have moved far away...out of reach...he couldn't have food..he couldn't sleep...he even forgot how to smile...it was like sunset to his life...he was moving to darkness..


he saw her picture disappear in the community..curiously he visited her profile...he couldn't stand it..another name between them was hard for him to digest.. yes...she had deleted her from friends list...for her its just a number...one of her contacts..but for him..it was a nerve that was broken..now they were related by a 3rd person between them...now he has to be know as a friends friend of her...no more he had access to her profile..as it was friends only...alas now he was no more her friend.. he couldn't stand it..he stood motionless..he had to witness it..his most cherished relation getting broken...his life seemed aimless and his existence seemed meaningless to him...

they used to fight..to more extent than this..but whatever they said..however they hurt each other..they never broke their friendship..even for fun...but now..her act was beyond his understanding..

he blamed her..she blamed him..for each silly thing they started arguing..and finally it happened..

was he that cruel to her or did she find his doing so disturbing that she had to take this extreme step? was his behavior that irritating? did she get fed up with him? is it true when she said she no more want the friendship? that this friendship had to end one day?

even with so many unanswered questions in his mind..he still waited expecting to see her back as his friend..waiting for the community to show him as her friend...he is waiting...and he will keep waiting endlessly, till she accepts him...

he waited for the sunrise...still waiting..
