Ek Aur Pehlu....

Just yesterday someone asked me If I know you...for a moment I dint know what to reply...everything flashed infront of my eyes...everything...I paused for a moment and replied “Not anymore”.

From that moment I have been thinking about you...about me ... about us...All those feelings resurfaced once again....feelings that I have been trying to suppress since the day you left...

You were always special to me...From the day we met I just knew that there was something different about you...Something that made me believe you...I dunno I had this inner feeling that we will go a long way....

I still remember the day when you called me up and said “I wanna leave...”I just couldn’t believe my ears...I always knew that you are very ambitious...but you could have atleast given it a second thought...given us a second chance....which I feel I deserved....There might have been times when I scolded you but that was only because I cared....

I must confess thinking all this still makes me angry....How could you erase everything....as if the last two years never happened...I did all I could to convince you....but you were just not ready to listen...You forgot everything...d good times...d bad times...everything.....

I asked myself “where did I go wrong?” I kept on thinking when was the moment when you actually thought we cant make it. Here I was making plans for the future and here you were making plans for a future in which I was not there...I was always there when you needed me...how could you...how could you just leave without looking back even once....
You told me it was not my fault...It was just not meant to be....but then I ask if its not my fault then whose fault is it? But then all this doesn’t make any sense now....U had a choice ...u made it....

I dunno whether I shud call u selfish...or just another practical person who wants to make BIG....who cares just about his career....I dunno whether it was my fault that I believed you...my fault that I believed in US....
With all these thoughts I let u go that day...I wished you all d best and accepted your resignation....

Yeah...I still think you were d best among all my subordinates....
I still think that we could have created magic together...
I still think why....
I still think why.....

PS: In case you dint understand, this story is from the point of view of a manager whose most trusted subordinate resigns....leaving his present organization for UNCLE SAM’S dream.
