After a long time, I welcome you to the blog still
finding a name :P
I’m done with three-fourth of my college and back to
the mountains for the monsoon :D Man! These days are passing slowly and lovely.
It’s like a dream stay for a month.- Watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S, Gorging on food,
sleeping, reading, and writing something different after newly acquiring taste
for Shayari :D
The thing I’m writing about today is what haunted me
three days back. So let’s begin:
I am at home. Happily enjoying my afternoon nap. La lalala. When suddenly out of nowhere, one person appears.
“What the hell is he doing in my dream?” I thought. If, out of all the people in the world, I know 100, then he would be probably the 98th person I would expect to see during my REM.
He is a very nice person and a good friend of mine BUT
someone who is unexpected to be seen like this. My classmate from 5th
class was fine, Dora the Explorer is also acceptable, maybe even Narendra Modi
would do. NOT HIM. Again: He is a close friend, the kind where you want to
break each other’s bones all the time, but NOT HIM.
So
we are in my dream and we’re in our college and I have car keys in my hand. I
hear the Dean of my college say to us, “Go there carefully and call me when you
reach there”.
The next scene I remember is me driving on a beautiful
road. Both of us are enjoying the journey so much that it’s evident from our
eyes sparkling with excitement of traveling to a new place. Good Road-Trip
songs are playing loud and we stop to have some food at a roadside Dhaba.
That’s when I woke up. Confused at what
happened just now and surprised that my dream catcher couldn't capture this nightmare. Weird. But it was over. I thought so :P
The
dream continued when I finally slept at night. This time we were at my town.
And I was searching for the person. I was calling out his name loud!
Too
bad, what happened as the dream progressed was that my shouting was not limited
to the dream and that I actually started shouting while sleeping. I woke up at
1am in the middle of the process of calling his name loudly.
My mother, who was sleeping beside me also woke up
from the noise and started staring. Now I had to explain to her why I was
shouting the name of a random person while sleeping. AWKWARD.
Good question. No answer.
This was too much. I took my phone and texted him “WHAT
ARE YOU DOING PARESHANIFY-ING ME AT THIS TIME IN MY SLEEP? !@#$%”, and sunao-ed
him everything.
Then the
beautiful thing happened:
He remembered, and pointed out that exactly 1 year ago at this time on
this day we were together in a train going somewhere :O
Oh Wow! Mood swinging. :D I suddenly started laughing.
My little brain is very good at remembering trivial things, I know. But it’s strange that it periodically recollects memories when I haven’t thought about the journey or that time after that.

Getting this kind of dream one year after something
happened amused me and made me remember everything good about that trip, How
good the time was, how indifferent we were about each other and how we explored
an entirely new place together.
And now, having known the reason for dream-invasion, I
happily slipped into sleep again.
Needless to say, the dream continued once again, where I was shaping his teeth with a chisel ... and I
kept smiling throughout my sleep (probably) Like this :D
