A love story of sorts (based on real events) *A love story of sorts* I was at the town, our town, after quite a while. I didn't want to bother you, since you had cleared everything; our castes wouldn't have made the families happy. I was quite content about everything, looking forward to move ahead in life. It was a sunny day when things changed. Your number flashed on my mobile screen. I smiled before answering the call. You knew I loved you, right? You had always been a mystery to me. You had mood swings like seasons that changed within hours. So this phone call, after I had deleted your name from my contacts, promised me another twist in our ordinary tale. You knew I was in the town, you wanted to meet me. I came smiling, hoping to set things right. Hoping to feel the us. Hoping to love you again. The old familiar park was ours once again. You looked so beautiful I could kiss you the entire evening. What happened next? This old lady from the village appeared near the park, giving us a strange look. Alas! We ignored her like any other day. Did we do something wrong, love?
