Sharing a secret with you

Am going to tell you a secret..

It's my long term desire to write a story. But some hesitation and kind of doubt whether will i be able to write..Some incidents that i had heard or come across , gives me a plot to write. I wrote my first story when i was in eighth standard and it got published in " Mettupalayam Seidhigal". I felt too shy to say it to anyone. The one who reads this posting will be the first to know i used to write stories and one of them got published.

I decided to post atleast one story of my own within this year. I thought of a character who is waiting for a little act of kindness, which made me gave birth to ROSA. U may find many Rosa’s amidst u, never hesitate to express yourself, and never be too busy to say little kind words.

After all, we are humans, longing for someone to care us, someone to listen to us and someone to love us.

ROSA

It's my long term desire to publish a story of my own within this year in my blog. I present my first story "ROSA" to you. Hope you will love my ROSA.

I logged into my PC and as usual was checking my email. One forward message from my school friend. 6 emails from Times job. Nothing so special. In the mid of job opportunity mail, I found an odd email from ROSA – Subject --- Hi

I receive certain email like this, suggesting that I can share their fortune of 3 million dollars, or I won a prize from Microsoft, or am the lucky winner of the lottery.

I thought this email from Rosa is one among such. Uninterestingly I opened that mail. To my surprise, the email contained some of the amazing facts about Taj Mahal. I checked the To address and CC. It was meant only for me. I thought someone unknowingly had forwarded to me.

To my surprise, today also I received an email from ROSA. The subject read “Water the good medicine”. The email was about the water treatment used by sages to cure all sort of diseases.

While I was busy doing my work, at the corner of my heart, I was wondering who was ROSA. I was doing all guess work to find ROSA. I being an introvert had few connections with outside world. I couldn’t arrive at any conclusion. Amidst of my busy schedule, I forgot about ROSA.

02 Feb, 2008 9.30 A.M, Thursday

The next day with expectation, I opened my mail box. There was my Rosa’s email with the subject “ For the one who is in love and for the one who is in search”. There were 12 pictures with beautiful love poems. Each and every picture replicated the power of love. I chose one of the picture where a girl with closed eyes, tears at the corner of her eyes. Below the picture was the saying “When u asked me which is more important, u or my life, I said my life. U walked angrily away from me without knowing u r my life”

I don’t know why, but I wished to see ROSA. I felt ROSA had occupied a place in my heart.

As usual, the first thing I did was to open my inbox. I was disappointed. I felt ROSA would have recognized that email had been wrongly sent to me. So had stopped sending.Whenever I saw my desktop background, Rosa came into my mind.

Beginning of the week, lots of assignment to be submitted. I switched on my PC. My beautiful desktop image came into life. There was Rosa’s email. This time the email comprised of Lateral Thinking Puzzles.

Months rolled away. I used to get Rosa’s email biweekly. I don’t know who is ROSA, What’s the gender, about the look or location. I made a guess ROSA is a girl. I dont know whether am right or no. But her email had created an impact on me. Her email was a mixture. Sometimes, medical, puzzles, out of box thinking, baby photos, love poems, beauty tips, papers on recent trends on Mechatronics, Google’s latest product and so on.

One thing I noticed in her emails was, it was mostly the compiled messages. She would have collected information from various sites, compiled and had sent to me.

I had a soft love towards my never seen friend. But I never dare to reply to ROSA.

I don’t know why I never even send even a Thank you message to that unknown soul. But I had good impression on my artistic friend.

15 JUN 2008, 9.30 A.M Thursday

Today ROSA had sent me love poems. Each and every poem was heart touching with graceful pictures. It was a collection from different sites, altogether she had compiled and send it to me.

To my surprise, to the end of the last poem, ROSA had wrote few lines

Hi friend,

I don’t know who u r? I felt that I should share my views and ideas to someone. Randomly I typed some name in the TO: field. Thank God, I never received Failure Daemon message. I have a personal satisfaction, that someone at some corner, is listening to me,to someone I was able to share my feelings.

Thank you Sir / Madam for your patience.

ROSA.

For sometime I never felt like doing anything. Some where Rosa’s mail made me feel. I felt for not even sending a single email for ROSA.

Night after dinner, before going to bed, I stood in front of Mother Mary to convey my night prayers.

When I looked into Mary’s eyes, ROSA came into my mind. I felt ROSA have lots of love on heart and much more unsaid words buried in her heart, eagerly looking for someone to share. She may be in need of someone to love and someone who loves her.

When I closed my eyes, tears trickled down my eyes involuntarily. Rosa’s poem like a flash came into my heart.

I wished to be your tears

Born in your eyes

Touching your cheeks

&

Ending in your lips

Love u

Will u love me
