2. Meeting an Angel

My office is just a 10 min walk away from my Bus stop. No work is being assigned to me as yet. All my friends but SN, have been assigned work to other locations. So everyday I go straight to library after marking my attendance. There, I can be found reading newspaper and listening songs on my new phone which I've gifted myself on my B'day. But one day it was something different, something special and really I can feel it. But one thing that I cant do is, predicting what lies in there for me.

I can recall distinctly, as it was some sort of defining moment for me. It was the time of December last year. Out in the streets, people were enjoying the warmth of sun. Dry leaves were scattered all over the place with cool breeze rolling over them, is cleaning the roads perfectly, again and again. It was the nice view out there and it doesn't get any better in Parliament Street area, one of the most happening places in New Delhi.

But rather enjoying out there, I was in the library. SN left the office early today as he got some work. Getting bored is the last thing that I would like to do there, so I kept myself busy in reading. While reading, I turned my eyes towards entrnace and there I saw a familiar face accompanied by girl whose eyes were gazing here and there, making herself familiar to the place. Clearly, she is new here. The one whom I know was MJ, a friend from my native place. TW27CV4XES9U Though I talked her rarely during our school days but of late I've met her quite a few times during our training. The other one, she's got beautiful eyes- the eyes so deep like the deepest of seas. She is 'Billu', as I later named her. Billu is a famous comic character whose eyes were hidden by his hairs and so the case with her. Her hairs keep on falling again and again to her face hiding her right eye. Its like the spells of dark clouds keep on coming and hiding the moon. She was like an angel. Oops... sounds like a poet? Ohh !! I am not a poet but just dont know whenever I met her, it happens on its own. So this is how I met this angel and how she got her nickname from me. Interestingly, her nickname given by her parents is also from a famous character in one of thr greatest hindi movie of all time.
