Happy Birthday Stranger II

Previous post of Happy Birthday Stranger 


“Every story has an end, not a beginning” said Stella. “Let’s have a coffee, Stella” said Kabir. “Kabir, have you seen Kanmani after that” Stella asked. “Another time Stella, coffee time” Kabir smiled. After having the coffee at THE COFFEE POINT, both took a walk home. While leaving her at her place, he asked, “Stella will you go on a date with me”. She was so excited to hear those words from him because she waited to hear them since they first met and she replied with excitement “What took you so long Kabir?” “Better late than never” Kabir murmured. Stella kissed Kabir and sent him off.

While walking home, Kabir started thinking about the date. Suddenly a thing, remind him of Kanmani. Tears started to wet his eyes but he controlled it as like as every time. It took his thought from Stella to Kanmani.

Stella was very curious about Kanmani because she nearly knows every page of him except Kanmani’s and his parents. She often questions about Kanmani to him but he rarely answers. The only thing she knew was, he was hiding something, something painful and something he wants to erase from his memories. So Stella searched for Kanmani through different sources like his childhood-friends, school mates, college mates, though she got nothing.

She couldn’t sleep because of the thinking of date with Kabir. But she doesn’t want wake up as restless, hence she forced herself to sleep.

Her sleep was destroyed by her door bell. She hardly managed herself to door. She opened the door. She barely sees the man standing outside with her blurred vision. She ran into the sofa on seeing Kabir. He caught her in trousers and t-shirt with sleeveless. She was embarrassed to stand in front him. He gave her a bag and asked to wear it. She couldn’t saw inside because it was packed. She took it upstairs and unpacked it. Inside she found a pale pink lace in it.  She was surprised because it was the dress which she wanted to buy for a long time.

She found note in the dress. In the note, “Don’t forget to see in”. She looked into the bag where she found another box. She opened it and there was a chain. She had it also. She looked herself into the mirror, in which she was like an angel standing in front of the mirror. She came downstairs to Kabir where Kabir was standing as speechless on seeing her.

He took her to nearby shop for a breakfast. After finishing their breakfast he took her to music concert. She worried because no one was there with them in the concert. Kabir asked her to wait so he could see what happened. After a few minutes, Kabir came up with his guitar to stage and started singing his own song. She couldn’t believe herself because she always wanted him to play a song for her. She couldn’t stop her tears while listening to his song in his voice. As soon as he finished the song she ran to stage and hugged as tight as she could. Then he took her to lunch in his own restaurant. While having food she asked about Kanmani.

“Stella! Thanks for making this more beautiful” and he added, “Ask what you want.” “Can I meet Kanmani” she asked. “I guessed it” he laughed. He asked her to wait for few more minutes. She was very excited to see Kanmani in real life.

He covered her eyes with blindfold and took her to Kanmani. After a few minutes of walk they reached. She thought herself about Kanmani’s appearance.

“We reached here Stella” he said and asked, “Are you ready?” “Hell I’m” she replied. He took her blindfold.

Stay with me until next week to figure out how Kanmani looked like.

After waiting for an hour, the last bus came into bus stand. Everyone except the crew of boys was aboard into bus along with some new comers. She kept her baggage in the shelf above her and took the window seat. The boys were standing beside her.
