Everyday life is the same, same old job, same old people. This makes life monotonous. Oh! what a boring life! Even hanging out with friends seems to be saturated at a point. What to do? Something has to be done. Life was not like this when I was a kid! How come it changed so fast?
I had returned from Chennai on Monday and was not assigned any work for the next 2 whole days. Boring…. Boring……… It was Wednesday, agh…. I had to go to office, to again stare at the internet!? Why GOD? Why me? With all these thoughts going through my head, I climbed down the stairs from my room. I did not have any mood to go to office, but my legs involuntarily had started walking to it. I should have walked only some 10 steps; I heard a husky and shrill voice saying BYE. What was that! I turned back and saw it was a toddler playing on his tricycle near the road. Hearing the cute bye and seeing his innocent smile, I forgot everything. I said bye to him and started walking towards the office with a smile on my face.
The Bye was echoing in my ears all day. I wanted to see the kid again. The next day I got ready for office at the same time but this time I was very eager and excited to see the boy. I had a look at my watch, it was the same time. I started walking enthusiastically towards office but I could not find the boy! Though I do not know who he was or why he was there that day, all I can say is his Sweet words Bye… will always be in my mind.
