If given a chance, how would I like my best day to be?
On the best day of my life, the sun will be shining bright, the sun ray will not be sunny, they will be golden. One can follow the sunrays hitting flowers and getting refracted in all directions making every thing to glow with a golden tint. Butterflies flying around the bushes and grass as if they were playing hide and seek. Rabbits running around in bright green lawn and rubbing there nose with there paws. Mild breeze will blow the reddish orange maple leaves and a blond on the other side of the road will be holding her skirt to stop the quivering due to naughty wind.
Kids playing around and catching butterflies, riding the swings and running around me as I pass along the playground. I could still here kids shout as I walk away from the playground. A beautiful girl with black innocent looking eyes, pink rosy lips walking towards me and kisses me on my forehead as she pass by. Sea is bit rough but surfers riding the waves in the sun, everywhere on the beach are people in good mood, some sunbathing, others playing Frisbee, some hunting for sea shells and rest loitering on the beach. On the other side of the road, people sitting on the bench, some talking to their loved ones, some reading newspaper and struggling to keep the pages upright against the breeze, A group of cool friends, capturing a corner are cracking jokes and cherishing their time together, some performing tricks with there skateboards and cycles. Some looking at the sun setting at the horizon in the sea and puffing the smoke off there cigars.
If everything is so good, where I am walking towards? I am walking towards my sweet home after finishing some minor work at some place. My house is a small bungalow with green lawns in front and a small path to the dividing it into two regions. The path is made up stones and grass growing out of the gap between two stones; and is enclosed by yellow Lily flower shrubs with honey bees humming around for nectar. Just look around, one can see beautiful flowers everywhere. Humming birds and lovebirds flying around and there melodious songs dissolve like honey in the ears. At the back of the house are trees of various kinds, look at the Banyan tree on the right corner, birds have made nests on them, as it is approaching evening, everyone is returning back home and shouting on top of there voices to mark there presence. Some kids form neighborhood have encroached in and playing hide and seek amongst the woods.
Mother has been waiting for me, sitting on a wooden chair in the veranda and look at the entrance gate. She has cooked all my favorite dishes today. She managed to finish her household work early and has been looking at the old family photographs for rest of the time. The moment she sees me approaching, she can't control her happiness and it appears as if she has been waiting for me to come home for many years. She holds my face and looks at it as if she won't see me again and wants to see my face as much she can.
Mother heads towards kitchen to get some snacks and hot tea. I enter the hall and see my father finding a tough time connecting DVD player to the TV. We have decided to spend the evening looking at old home made videos. Meanwhile we finish setting things, mom is ready with snacks and hot tea for every one of us. As we are watching the video, we talk to each other for long and are happy with everything that has been offered by the almighty. It's 8:00 in the evening and we are done with watching all the videos, suddenly my muse calls me and asks me to take her on a long drive. The whether is cold outside and has stared to drizzle, I grab my jacket and take my car to pick her from her house. Her hair is moist, and for some reason she is looking more beautiful than ever. I take her to a nearby mountain from where we get an magnificent view of our home town. Its full moon tonight and by the time we reach the top, it has stopped raining and the clouds have just vanished. Because of rains, a beautiful pond has come alive on the mountain top. We sit besides the pond on a rock and look at the magnificent reflection of the vast sky with moon shining brighter and stars glittering. I express my feelings to her and tell her how much I love her, she looks into my eyes and kisses me on my lips and says, Even she wanted to say the same. Suddenly it starts raining again and we realize that we have been out for a very long time and must rush home before parents start worrying about us. We run towards the car, and she shivers with cold, I remove my jacket and help her wearing that. I play all her favorite tracks while driving back and we talk to each other all the way back.
As soon as I drop her to her house, I get a call on my mobile. It's my best friend's call, all my old good friends are meeting at the local restaurant and I am supposed to join them and while doing that I need to pick this friend on my way to the restaurant. I blow horn as I reach his house, he is late as usual. He gets into the car and tries to explain the reason for being late, but none of us are interested in it, but we do it because we have been doing it since we were friends. With loud music roaring in the car I rush towards the restaurant. Everyone welcomes us with all the abusive words ever they could think of. When we friends are together, everyone has a new name. Soon alcohol starts flowing down the throat and cigarettes smoke fills the air with good olden days. We spend a lot of time together speaking about many things and had a really good time.
I reach home at 12:00 and after changing my cloths I just lay on my bed, and I don't know when I sleep happily.
