Heights of Love… The Inner Turmoil!!!


Mel – why are you crying darling?
G – cuz I am an absolute mess!
Mel – I beg to differ… I guess a lot of women would love to be you.. dating the perfect man, and having another in your pocket!
G – don’t say that, that just makes me feel like cheap trash!
Mel – oh, no, I did not mean it like that. I meant most women don’t get attention from one… sorry, ignore me.. it’s more of a cheesy comment... I thought that would pep you up. We would die for something like this in Uni… sorry love.. okay, so I am going to call you now, you pretend to cancel, alright?
G – yea, sure.


Mel called G & Marimba buzzed at the table. Grata walked towards the table and instead picked up the picture frame, she was wearing the bunny ears and smiling so bright while Henry was wearing the pink feathery prop that G insisted he wears to fit in. He seemed to enjoy these quirks as he was looking at her and smiling even while the picture was being taken. She remembered how funny that night was and how pissed drunk everyone was. She remembered how Mel and she had done the very inappropriate dance which was more like a dry hump in the very very risky club in Shordich while the boys were left to look after the girls incase anyone tried to act funny. It was Grata who had planned the night as she needed to take her mind off Adam… Little did she know that it was Henry’s birthday the next day.. it only came to its disclosure as Henry got a call from quite a few people one after the other, and all he said was “Thank you, I’ll call you back.. I’m in the middle of celebrations!” each time.. and it was an innocent question from Grata “some big project success?” that had the curtains falling on the birthday. That was the one and only time that Grata had kissed Henry on the lips. It was more of an instinctive peck on the lip before she hugged him and screamed “Happppppppppppppppppy Birrrrrrrrrrrrthday”… While hugging him, Grata noticed the array of cupcakes that were being taken to that Golden booth at the corner. She excused herself to the toilet and instead went to the booth where she asked the ladies if she could exchange 1 muffin in exchange of a drink or two. As she explained that it’s a friend’s birthday and they were caught unaware, to her surprise Franchesca (the bride to be asked her to join in). So Grata came back to drag the 3 of them to the Hen’s party in the corner. And all she remembered after was cup cake eating from Fran’s cleavage… the dirty dancing with the bride to be… and then all she remembers was waking up with a headache… She was smiling.

Heights of Love… The Plot Thickens!!!


G – No I’m not…
Mel – Of course you are… You talk to him for hours… Go out for Dinner together… Go to movies…
G – But you guys are always there..
Mel – Yea… I know.. its called double dating.
G – If I were dating… I would know… & even if we were… it’s not exclusive.. neither Henry, nor I have proposed.
Mel – & he is planning to, today… that’s what I came here… to ensure you wear your best dress & look damn pretty when he picks you up today… Dude… you have a date with him at 9!

This had Grata going off the ceiling… “oh no no no no no no.. this can’t happen… oh hell no… NO NOOOOOOOO” she just kept blabbering… Mel calmed her down with “okay.. so you clearly want Adam.. & Henry clearly wants you… & he is planning to propose… & the only reason why I know this is cuz Scott told me… So, let’s assume, I never told you this.. & let’s assume you have taken ill… //Grata nodded// no no no.. not ill… else he would come visit… let’s assume you have an extremely important client meeting that may get extended.. ya.. that works.. you have a client meeting that will get extended… & you may need to have dinner & drinks with the very very very important clients.. I can’t believe I am plotting against Henry’s proposal for an Adam whose intentions we are not even remotely sure of! Okay.. so I’m going back now.. cuz I came to your place & it was locked.. I’m gonna call you now… talk to me for 2 minutes.. rehearse the I’m with clients.. will have to cancel today’s date with me & then call Henry!”

“O Mel.. you are a genius… I just love you so much” said Grata as she hugged Mel tight and started crying!!!

Paper Doll #Ramblings

Wanted & liked... she makes everyone smile...
Nice & bright... she feels like sunshine...
Hot & cold... she lets her emotions unfold...
Tender & sweet... she lets her heart beat!

But she forgets... she is wrapped in cellophane...
She is a paper doll...
& they forget... she is to be handled with care...
She is a paper doll...

Bought off the shelf.. She is the favorite toy...
Loved like crazy... She is more than just a paper doll...
Together day in & out.. She is not to be shared...
But one day... she suffers a tear...

Worn out & torn... she lies in a corner...
Dust settles in... pushed into storage...
& one day its time for cleaning... she catches the eye...
crumpled & trashed... its the end of it all...

After all... She is just a paper doll!

Heights of Love… The Uncertainty!!!


Uncertainty kills you softly… the fear of the worse is actually worse than the worst itself.. to top it Grata was in the mid of the classic - Boys… cant live with them… cant live without them! Adam had bought her a cuppa… he had taken her on a drive… was that sort of a date?

Grata’s trail of thoughts -
//He said he loved me… but he also said he doesn’t wanna see me again…
he sang heart shaped box for me… does he think I am manipulative-sweet-looking-blood-sucking-maneater?
Is he attracted to me or repulsed by me??? Aaaaargh…
on one hand he has a problem with me flirting with other men.. on other hand he buys me coffee…
on one hand I see him fighting… on the other I just really reaaaally wanna kiss him//
She let out an Aaaargh of exasperation as she tossed the empty cup at the door.

Mel opened the door just then to meet Grata, only to be welcomed by a cup being flung in her direction.. The empty cup kissed Mel’s torso & landed at her feet, she picked it up cautiously & asked Grata funnily “What has this poor Missile done?” Grata just looked at Mel with her tear-filled big blue eyes… “okay, what the hell did this Missile do to you?” repeated Mel with a grumpy face this time… Grata tilted her head, made a puppy face & mumbled “I’m sorry I hit you with the Missile!” but “what did the missile do to you sweetheart?”, Mel… “why are you calling a cup, a Missile, did it actually hit you like 1?” Grata asked wiping her tears… “Because it reads Missle!” said Mel as she sat down  at the corner of the bed & Grata crawled towards Mel to read the cup say, MISSLE.

G suddenly became alert, straightened her back & said “Adam bought me coffee today while I was headed to the Garage.. I have been staring at the cup since forever.. but I sure did not notice the scribblings…” Mel turned around the cup… It read 7:30 PM today? “oh my god… he asked me out on a date” screamed Grata as she jumped off the bed & started dancing hysterically… Mel pulled her down & said… “okay.. from the beginning”… So Grata described the dealings of the day to Mel in happiness beyond words.. so much so, she felt her heart would beat right out her chest! When she was done.. Mel shook her by the shoulders & said sternly “You can’t go.. you’re dating Henry!!”

Giggles & Cackles


Do you remember the time... when all that there was in this world was giggles & cackles...
do you remember the time.. when you were actually the center of this universe...
do you remember the time... when you could do just about anything, even snort & get away with it...
do you remember that time???

wasn't life so wonderful then?
when all that was expected out of you was laughing?
when the motto of each & every person around you was just to see you giggle one more time...
when you would step into a room & all you heard was awwwwww...
& all life had was gugus & gagas & gigies.. oh! & hugs & kisses all the time...

how we grow up & stop being loved like that?
how we grow older & stop loving like that?
how things change.. you get embarrassed if you laugh & suddenly snort...
how things change... people stare at you when your heart aches & you begin to cry...
how things change... when you fall, people try to control their laughter & just walk by...
how things change... you try so hard but the innocence is lost...

how did things change???

why did things change???
isn't life all about the giggles & cackles?
