That Old Feeling Returns :)

I was sitting on a bench at my granny's house , deeply involved in some craft work which I had happily abandoned when I was 8. I was too thrilled to be doing what I was coz I had always thot that i lacked patience and skill for it. I did not shift my base for hours and dint blink for minutes. I was totally involved when I heard a scream..!!! My concentration was broken in a flash and I literally jumped with my eyes and mouth wide open with excitement. My boyfriend was back after a one year's stint in the US. He was standing in front of me with a camera to capture my reaction! My instant reaction was to hit him and say, "U R MAD!". The least expected reaction a friend said. I could see the sparkle in his eyes, partly because he was too happy to see me and partly as he was extremely proud of himself that he had managed to surprise me for the first time in his life.

One whole year's wait had just erased and I felt that he had never gone. Everything was like how it used to be before. His struggle while we sat on the floor to have lunch; his hands in pocket while standing and talking; his slow walk; his characteristic laugh, just everything about him was the same. I was a little disappointed as i had expected and wanted an iota of change in him so that I feel that he was away for a while. What was new was his bundle of stories about the states!

He has put on a few pounds (surprisingly it does not matter to me) and has got fairer ( relatives will be happy about the 'FAIR' groom :P). We meet everyday and the joy of meeting him is increasing with each day, which is a little weird. This feeling is the one I had during our initial dating days. I have not experienced this for a looooooooooooong time now and am enjoying it. Our fights, the laughs, holding hands, bike rides everything has returned. The comfort level, the warmth is still the same. He is still the same. But something is new. I have found a change. A change I cannot describe but just feel. An exaggerated elation!

Distance has done us good.
With all difficulties we stood.
We are falling in love all over again.
It feels fresh like rain. :)
