Answering my own question, she hasn’t been doing outrageously exciting things to keep her away this long from the blog. She was busy forging a temporary alliance with a certain individual by the name of God Almighty.
She was busy discussing ardently, alternatives to completely blanking out in front of her exam paper, methods to circumvent studying a syllabus of oceanic proportions, and having the brain power to remember enough to fill in the pages of the answer sheet. She was busy fervently formulating terms and conditions of treaties to sign, pacts to adhere to. Terms and conditions involved were: if only stuff I learn comes 3 coconuts for you, if I manage to remember everything I painstakingly mugged up; 51 rupees for you.
After sleeping continuously for 4 hours every day for the last two weeks, burying her head within her books, hardly eating for the fear of suffering from an upset tummy, refusing to step out of the house except going to college to meet her arch rival the papers, the marks-talks ended successfully. It was ratified by the council of Love with Falak having all her demands met at such short notice and God still waiting for his.
He’s still waiting without creating a ruckus, without impassioned appeals of ‘why me always?’, ‘I know you hate me’. Biding his time he’s still sticking around here.
Why though?
Simply because he believes in her.
But does she trust him as implicitly?
Do we?
A very, merry, exam-free soul.

ReplyDeleteNice write up!
Really funnny..:P..loved the message that you were trying to wanted t oput across:):) it was nice reading it!
Hello Falak, Short but sweet and sincere post. Every God fearing person will vouch and associate with your post. Spirituality differs from person to person and culture to culture but isn't it strange that in the most trying times we simply surrender ourselves to God Almighty with loads of promises that we seldom keep... The most benevolent and the most merciful never complaints when we forget to keep our promise. May you be blessed always!!!
