Writers Jam

I was sitting by the window, like every other day, waiting for her

The sun just said goodbye to me, I do not like him very much but because of him, I seem beautiful when people are getting to know me

So, I came to like him with time

Anyways, I heard the doorknob twist open

I was filled with excitement like all the other days since she took me home with her

She entered the room and threw her bike keys on the bed and kept her laptop bag on the floor and sat on the bed, it made a loud sound

Ohh she is sad… or is she tired

I was not sure if she would look at me or talk to me today

I don’t know, for whatever reason she doesn’t see me as she used to see me before

When she took me home with her, she was very happy and excited to get to know me

Now she doesn’t even bother looking at my direction, I do not know what is wrong with her

She is working, so she might be stressed I guess

Suddenly she got up from where she is sitting and lunged towards me with a serious look in her eyes

I got a feeling

I was very nervous; I was screaming in my head… pick me!!!

Her hand was approaching me, and then it swiftly turned to my left where a box of cigarettes was kept.

I was stunned, but not surprised

As the time is passing by it is slowly getting etched in my mind that I am becoming invisible to her

She sat by the window next to me and lit her cigarette up, and started smoking elegantly

I was in her line of vision but she would not look at me

Today got me really sad

As I was thinking about the day, she comes to me and lock her beautiful doe eyes with me as I talk to her quietly and take her to another world

She likes to escape the reality and I would love to take her some place good

I heard slow whispers from behind

“Oh Gosh she did not change at all, look at the poor new guy all sad and alone”

I may have forgotten to mention, I moved in with her recently and yes there were some others like me as well with whom I did not speak yet

There was a time I was looking for someone and she walked into my life, we had a spark, at least I thought so

“Do you think we should talk to him??” said one small guy

“Oh the new guy? I was suspicious when he got there no surprises, she is not into whatever he is”

Said a big dusty guy among that group

“But I think we should still speak to him, he seems lost” said someone else

“Okay, let’s see what he is up to” said one

“Hi guys! How are you? How did you guys meet her and from how long you have been with her” I asked slowly but confidently

“Pretty dusty, as you can see” said the big old guy with a slight laugh

“Well, I have known her from quite some time, I am sure she cannot say the same about me, I got with her when she was in college to impress her crush, she was always busy with her class assignments and I might pass away soon like my friend did” said one grumpily

“Yeah, same here and I have been with her from almost one years I guess she takes me on planes all the time. l I always sit next to her in airport, we used to talk for some time like that, and then later she will browse on her cell phone or she will take a nap, anyways so basically I am her travel buddy but she still did not get to know me well, but she says I calm her nerves” said one proudly

“She wants me only when she is feeling low, I lift her spirits up,” said someone

“Well about me, I got with her when she thought she will attempt competitive exams, I want to help her but she doesn’t seem to be into it now,” said a tall guy

As someone else was about to share their story, I heard a loud cough

I ignored and asked with curiosity, is there anyone who she got to know completely?

“Yes, that would be me. So, we all are into love, friendship and heartbreak with her, what about you? What are you about?” asked the one who coughed before, that small guy although he seems pretty famous around there and I also have seen him quite a lot before

I was nervous but got the courage to speak and said- I am into science fiction and I think she is in love with me and wants to get to know me

Everyone went silent, I heard gossips and laughter

The small guy said with a smirk “you seem so confident about yourself how much did you even speak to her? She is usually into fantasy, love or heartbreak. I do not understand what she saw in you, you are fake”

Everyone was kind of nodding to show that they agree

I said “I do not know but I think she really likes me and she will get to know me fully real soon and she will want more of me for sure”

“Love that confidence. All the best buddy, but not for you though we all just hope she finds some one she really likes and who doesn’t make her cry” said one among them

I saw the small guy beaming angry arrows at him but he finally said with a sigh “Yeah well that is true, I don’t want her to get more of me and cry. You give it a go buddy”

I said “Thank you guys! And I think she likes all of us”

But deep down I know that she lives in her imagination and she will love me and wants to get to know me

I will give her time

I will be waiting for her to come to me so we can get lost into an unknown world together and I won’t bore her at all

I hope she keeps me with her forever

My every page is a surprise

And my end will blow her mind
