I always kept myself as a introvert in matter of love. For me exchanging numbers on social media and that also with a stranger whom I met just few hours ago, where just the kind of fantasies which I thought won't happen to me in my entire life. While we were share our methodologies on our past and present, she suddenly asked "WhatsApp???"
Me being me in super excitement replied
"Yes of course!" this was the time when i had this mixed feeling. "Owww!! Did that really happened to me, means is someone really asking for my number without knowing me and that also not for any favour or help."
I was going in different trip, because this was something I was not expecting. For me these are those fantasies which would happen to me. As soon as I replied yes
She, "Pass me your number." without wasting any second I dropped my number and waited for her text on my Whatsapp.
The next moment I got a text, "Jullae Mingyur"
'jullae' means hello in Ladakhi language. She was trying to learn basic words and sentences. So our conversation on WhatsApp started with language class. Me and Mr. Google being her teacher her where teaching her the words and sentences by translating it into English at the same time making her pronounce it correctly. As my fantasy came true I wanted to know what fantasy does she carry with her.
"Travelling to places that has never been visited by anyone.
hehehhehe
I have travelled a lot through youtube.. lol"
she mentioned one of her fantasy to visit such a place. As I studied Geography trying to impress her by the knowledge I acquire about the subject, we went to discuss about the study we do. I felt embarrassed when though I was a student of geography but I forgot most of my studies.
"Wwoooaahh.. I love geography, though I'm not good at it, but I have always wanted to learn about places. The people, their culture, history and everything. I'm planning to do Anthropology after my MDS.. hehheh.."
for her it was never too late to learn. Which gave me another boost to complete my graduation. She was so clear with the words she wrote what she wanted in life. On the other hand I was still a messed and confused brat.
We were so alike that at one point I told her that my friends call me Kapil Sharma, because I can do anything to entertain people around me for a time being it makes me to forget my disappointments, fear and anxiety. So doing crazy things made me feel better and also comforted those who were around me.
On this she mentioned her friends call her Kapil Sharma or sometimes Kevin Hart's sister. I was wondering did we really meet or am I dwelling in dreams. " How it can happen?"
"Magic" she said and the with this words it made me clear in my mind that destiny is real and you can rely on it. So it was already very late and she had classes we signed off and wished each other good night but it was already 2 am in the morning, but this usual now a days in this world.
As it was the time when Pandemic (COVID-29) hit the world and it has already entered India and many populated cities came under the effect. She being a dentist has the most direct contacts with the patients. So it was bit tensed situation for her. Till this time locked down was not announced by the government so they had to continue with their job at hospital, but for me the classes were already suspended.
She wished me Jullae again and till that time I was in the police station to bail my friends who got in a fight with some locals. I got a call just after she signed off. I was explaining the situations to her as what happened last night and I'm still at the police station. I didn't even go the bathroom and to have food was not even in my mind. So as I told her the situation and my condition she was their to boost me and took care of me to eat and all. She listened to my situation and was there to boost me. She was trying to make me laugh with her sarcasm on holding my motion for a very long time, which relieved me a lot, and I could figure out what to do as things were getting sorted out slowly.
Later in the evening I finally asked her about her day and what she's doing and all.
She was fond of watching episodes, "Crime Patrol" and I also decided to watch that episode and check what's there to watch so precisely for which she told me to name the killer at the end. Likewise I watch the episode late as I was exhausted with the day I spent in the police station.
