kaatil aankhein ( killer eyes)...

He climbed up the stairs...she was there...standing there at the end of the steps...she took the overcoat he was carrying...and led him inside...She hung the overcoat on the hanger and he proceeded towards his abode and took his seat...he leaned over and looked out of the little window....the sky was glittering with the infinite stars..it seemed like shiney sparkles on a dark coloured bedsheet...so calm and yet amazing...

She tapped him on the shoulder...he came out of his own world and looked at her....and then at the glass of water in her hand...she had a slight smile on her face...he took the glass from her and took a sip...she moved off...but he kept looking at her...the glass with half the water still in there...he was jus waiting for her to turn back n look at him again....as soon as she reached the end of the corridor..she turned back to look back..n then her hair fell over here face..covering one eye..n she looked through the hair...n he knew ...that she knew he was looking at her...

He looked away towards the window...and then picked up the magazine kept on the desk in front of him and started browsing through the various articles...some were on politics..talking about international and national issues..some talked about sports...some about fashion...but he wasnt reading them..he was thinking about her...the way the hair came up on her face n covered her face...he was thinking if he was with her on a vacation..spending a calm evening on the lonely beach with just the sea to give them company and the camp fire....

As lost he was in his thoughts...he didnt see her come up to him...she told him..."dinner is ready"...and she brought some food over...she wasnt feeling hungry so she served him the food and went back...he ate a few pieces of the chicken..it was good...after all she had served it to him..how couldnt it be good...he was thirsty n the glass in front of him was empty..he thot there was water...but thirst had taken over...he called for her to get him some water...she brought some water over...she started pouring the water in the glass..he looked at her...she looked at him...their eyes met for the first time..it seemed the time had stopped for a few seconds...the glass filled up...n before it could spill out..the trance was broken..she looked down..the hair covered her face..n then in a split second she backed off and went back to the end of the corridor to her room..to her abode...he just kept looking..and then finally drank a sip of the water..

He threw the tray in the trash can outside...and went back to his seat...closed his eyes and just relaxed...time just seemed to drift away.....he was lost in his world...and then there was a voice calling to him...he opened his eyes...it was her...she was there..standing with the hair falling over her face ever so slightly..made her look like a dream...and then she took up the onboard mic and said....."Ladies and Gentlemen, we will be landing in a few minutes...thank you for flying with us...hope u had a great flight and look forward to serving u again"...



He smiled to himself...he didnt even get to realize how time had flown by...and he knew he should have told her "you have the most amazing eyes" when their eyes had met...but now he was climbing down the steps of the aircraft..and she was there inside...lost in her own world..and he didnt know if he would see her again...he smiled...and looked back...she was there at the gate..smiling....this is what he had been waiting for..to see her smile back before he goes off in off in to the swarm of people at the airport..and he looked at her and said to himself...."yes..."...he knew he cud fall in love again...

guys this is my first attempt at trying to write a story..so pardon the inconsistencies...hope u like it...:D

That was delicious, Maverick! I love the imagery of the glass of water and the tension building in the story. And then to find it was a daydream! You're a natural. Had me spellbound.

Thanks for a great start to the day.:D
