Moments That Belong To Us
Every memory etched into my heart forever.
The Walk to the Bakery
I still remember that walk from college all the way to the bakery like it happened just yesterday. My heart was pounding, my hands trembled as I hesitated again and again, wondering if I should hold your hand. But when our fingers finally touched and intertwined, a wave of certainty washed over me. In that quiet second, I decided that I was never ever going to let go of this hand.
Bhai Kadai and Side by Side Days
Those golden college days were defined by picking you up at Bhai Kadai. Sitting right next to each other all day long, sharing whispered jokes, and sneaking around campus whenever we got even a little chance. No matter how long the day was, being beside you made everything effortless and happy.
The Evening Bus Rides for Five Precious Minutes
I can never forget those endless evening bus rides. Getting into that crowded bus after a long exhausting day, standing the entire way, watching the streetlights pass by while my heart counted down the stops to your street. All that travel, all that rush, just to stand quietly near your house for five quick minutes.
Those five minutes felt like both a single heartbeat and an eternity. Just seeing you step out, catching your gentle smile, and looking into your eyes made every bit of traffic and tiredness vanish into thin air. Even when I had to turn back into the night and take the long ride home, my heart was warm and peaceful because I got to see my Ammu.
Empty Pockets in Every Cafe
The uncountable amount of money we spent exploring cafes across town, ordering hot drinks just to sit across from each other for hours. Our pockets were often completely empty, but our hearts were always bursting with joy and conversation.
Tears, Hugs, and That Goofy Stare
We saw uncountable amounts of laughter, but also shared tears during the rough days when things felt hard. Yet we held on tight with uncountable hugs and kisses. And nothing compares to the special stare you give me whenever I do something silly and goofy. That stare melts me every single time.
Multiplied Hundredfold Into Tomorrow
I want to gather up every single laugh, every hug, every kiss, and every sweet moment we ever shared, and multiply that uncountable total a hundred times over. We leave the tears behind in the past because look how far we came: we are so near to our big success.
