To grasp this sorry Scheme of Things entire,
Would not we shatter it to bits–and then

Conversation with Ember

[11:49 pm. My Cell Phone Rings with that special tone. The soundtrack of the series “Indiana Jones”. I already know it’s his call before picking the phone up and looking at the screen of my cell to see his name flashing. I let it flash for some seconds, trying to control the sudden smile it has given me. In the whole day today, he had called me twice including this. That’s definitely too much for the person who works 9am to 10pm everyday and has genuinely hectic schedules. I take the call and he starts speaking…]

He: hi… [Eh! I still hate this “Hi…” of his after all these years. I mean…it sounds so formal, like as if he doesn’t have anything else to say, to begin the conversation…]
Me: Yes, Bolo. [Pretending to be calm]
He: kaise ho aap? How do you feel, how is the pain?
Me: well, how do I sound?
He: You sound much better than the one I talked to in evening.
Me: [laughs] Yeah Yeah! It was still I.
He: [laughs a little] are you sure?
Me: [laughs more] Probably, I guess.
He: [stops the laugh, and becomes serious] Okay, so you must be in bad mood at evening, you did not talk to me well.
Me: [a little guilty] yeah… Was in kind of bad mood… [Stops for a breather…] Tell me something, have you ever been in this condition, like where you’ve been stuck to bed, for months, and the only times you’ve gone out of your room is to just go to hospital??
He: [with a smile probably] Not actually. Not for this long, anyway.
Me: [curious] how long then?
He: [with a bigger smile, I guess] for a few hours.
Me: [confused!] eh?
He: Haan… there is a crazy girl who used to tie me down and make me ‘stuck to bed’ literally for a few hours, I guess you know that.
Me: [laughs out loud. Oh! He is a mockery devil at times, but I’m no less.] “Used to”???
He: [laughs back] yes, she is not able to do that anymore. You see, she is having a bed rest cause she went through an accident.
Me: [a tad bit raged being outsmarted by his response] yeah yeah!! Let her get back to normal and then you shall see what she would do.
He: [teasingly] yeah, we shall see.
Me: [laughs, listens to papers rustle in his background] btw, where are you now at this late hour, still at office?
He: umm… Yes! Just finishing up here, […more rustling of papers] need to rush home, it’s very late.
Me: [sighs] Okay. Go on.
He: [speaks after a moment of silence] but before we say bye, I want to do something.
Me: [smile is back on my face] you want to do WHAT?
He: [smiles] Mmmm…. I want to pull you close to me…
Me: [with a hint of naughtiness] and…?
He: [laughs slight] … and…. I want to bite your neck and then run off before you could take revenge for that.
Me: [laughs loud] … yeah, right! Abhi chalo niklo office se. Ghar jana hai ke nahi!
He: [laughs along] ok baba… Jaisa aap kahen! Good night.
Me: [still smiling] bye and goodnight.

[He disconnects. I lay down on bed, still clutching my cell in palm with a smile on my face, slowly whispering to my self] Oh, this night is definitely going to be very good, indeed!

Ektz. Cheers!!!

Sometimes,

people can be so sweet, that i find them impossible to resist.

Oh, did i mention, i have a sweet tooth!!

Well, inspite of that fact, i also have resentment towards constant flatterings and charms. But hey, sometimes, Ember [Thats what i’ll call him, so that i dont have to get in fuss of names, or even Initials for that matter! he is the one that i hopelessly love, and also know how hopeless it is!!] he also turns sweet.

Of course it will just be a momentary thing, something that has been done unknowingly even, or else he wouldnt have done that in first place if he knew he was trying/acting sweet. something to do with Monster male egos, eh?! Well, wouldnt get too deep into it, cause i also come with monster egos. heh!!

So yeah, the sweetthing that i was showered with today, was first his silence on phone. Of course, its usual. He is not that of a conversationalist when it comes to romance. Not me either, so its cool and comfortable for us to just be there with each other and spend hours in silence, doing either nothing, or our own things. But its largely a comfort zone for both of us. Feels like home in those situations.

But this time i was angry, things werent going right from sometime now, he was behaving detach, or rather, IS behaving detached. I was angry for the silence that was making me uncomfortable for the first time. And after a while, i lost it. My temper that is. I blurted out in a not-at-all-nice [mean] tone, ” If you don’t have anything to talk about, then why you are calling me up in first place??”

and here it goes, the sweetest thing that he says, that makes me shut up, with a smile on my face…

“..umm… I just wanted to hear your voice…”

I just hope the effect stays on for atleast an hour , before another call.

My condition these days is completely like… “Aasmaan se tapke, Khajuur pe Atke!!” I mean, its funny how murphy seems to prove his law true for everything i go through and make me remember him again and again! and i repeat, its actually funny!

Well, its a usual blabbering, about my Accident. To be truthful, If i were to be an optimistic person i would have seen good things in that as well, but somehow, i just end up defying my own self, when it comes to the thinking of both the sides.Okay, now i better stop running in circle around the original subject and directly get to the center of the matter. Fortunately enough, a week ago, my physiotherapy reached the level where i was told, i could start walking then on. Of course with a little support. Gawd, i was damn glad about that, it literally took half of the sensations of pain away from the bloody physio exercises! And thats where the trouble started!

Let me elaborate, I , Miss Ekta, after burning my previous physiotherapist-Mr. Raval ’s work and also the skin at the back of his hand [..no detailing of that horrible yet almost planned ‘accident’ during the hotwax therapy here!! ] got in touch with a new physiotherapist. That one turned out to be a female for her own safety from me[… muhhahahaa!!], and twice lucky cause she shared the same name with my special someone, and let me tell you, that name isnt that usual in INDIA even though its unisex. So yeah, i kinda developed a soft corner for her. Then we began with the walking exercises. of course, Heavily painful stuff. I was overall calm, somehow i think i am good at bearing physical pain, may be cause of my past experiences & martial arts, or may be cause of the silly ego of being the strong one. Anyway, the conclusion was that i would sweat up like hell due to pain, while going through the exercise, but i wouldnt make a sound, no more than a moan here and there. So it got hard for her to actually draw a line where the pain got too much for me. Unfortunately, The more she tried to notice my reactions, the more i would be alert not to let a single sound escape my lips!!

Then After almost three days, she realised i was having a kind of lump within my heel, which wasn’t melting with the hotwax techniques and other lossening up exercises. She asked me how much it pained, i honestly replied it was painful but not over my limits of absorbing. She smiled at my answer, and told me that she really didnt expect me to be too stoic about it. I was the one to get shocked on her comment. She went on talking to me, taking me for an X-ray again. The X-ray results gave another shock to both of us, I was developing a stress fracture inside my heel. Probably due to the overload of exercises after the two months of stiffness. Then, I was asked not to do the heavy exercises, just the mild ones for the time being, so that it doesnt get too serious. Oh well, there goes my chances of walking in nearfuture goes away! I’m to wait for few days, then gradually go along! Heck, i’ve got a state level public speaking contest to win within a week from now, and i am not allowed to walk yet!!

Okay, now as if the stress fracture and the delays in the walking is not worse enough, I was to be apt for more! That X-ray gave another complication to doctors! They noticed that after the sweeling has been returning to normal, the thickness of the nails-wires planted in my sole covers almost 85% percent of the whole thickness. The twister is that, with that much thickness it could be easily tempered by outside sources of force in any possible way. Like a fall or an accident again [god, i hope not!] or even a barefeet walk over a road with stones. If that happens then the planted nail would be more a danger for the foot! Now as it was planted just for the sake of keeping all the bones straight for better healing, its purpose is almost served as bones are almost healed normal. Now the docs think that i should go for another surgery, to take the implants out as there is no need for the implants anymore. Bloody boring ordeal again! Bed rest, no walk and terrible headaches cause of the anesthesia!

What more could i ask for?!! Sighs! I hope Mr Murphy is happy atleast!!
Oh, and i’m actually glad i’m a pessimist! For a pessimist is never disappointed.
