Wait

I just have been waiting at the bus stop for an hour. Really; wait is always very painful, monotonous and so tedious. Probably there is nothing pitiful and angrier than to wait for someone or something in this world. I was looking at my wristwatch again and again due to aloneness. It was feeling as if time has slowed down its speed. After some time a girl came and sat down there. She was also waiting for any other bus.

She started to read something after opening a copy from her vanity bag. Perhaps she had to go and appear for any examination. I was just peeping at her as I had no guts to see her directly. But she was not disturbing herself at all except her copy. Now I had no complaint about the time and its motion.

Suddenly a college bus reached here and gave a halt. The girl rode on that bus and moved away.

Once again; the speed of time started disturbing me. After a while, the bus which I had been waiting for a long time, arrived here.

I got the last seat on the bus. Two different young persons mean a young boy and a young girl also came in the next stoppage and they sat on the two vacant seats near to mine. In no time the young girl started saying "Today you please come to our home with me. You will put the marriage proposal of us to my Pappa."

The young boy laughed and told " Have you planned an arrangement to kill me? I know very well that your father would never agree with this marriage proposal. He might not accept the social distances that lie between us.

"Then what you have decided to do?" The girl asked.

"I think we both would get married in a temple. If there would happen any kind of problem you think, then we will prefer to a court marriage. By doing so, we would become husband and wife legally". The boy replied.

"But I am not agreed with you. I cannot give you my consent of mine on this type of proposal. After all, my love is not so weak and worthless. Also, I never want to live my life as an absconder. I have a strong belief in my father that my Papa must understand me rightly one day. There must come a day in life when my Papa agree with our proposal. I must try to convince him. Won't you wait for some days more?"

The young boy hold the girl's face and answered, "Why for some days? I can wait for you the whole life also".

The girl leaned on the boy's shoulder like a mimosa plant. They moved out of the bus by holding each other's hands after drawing a concluding line to their marriage discussions.
