Love is in the Air, as today is Valentine's Day. And I am planning to add a little more magic to this occasion. So I am here by posting my Third Blog with an invitation to all you guys to join me for a small trip to Samedha's World. Let's find out together; when was the first time she had felt the same magic in the air.

 Delhi.

It was a cloudy Sunday morning. Around 9.15 a.m. Samedha got down from an auto and took out a fifty rupee note from her purse to pay the auto driver.

The driver said “ Madamji, change nahi hai.”

Samedha smiled and said “Bhaiya, koi baat nahi. Aap baki ka change rakhlo.”

[Don’t know how and why gals call every unknown fellow; an auto driver or a shop keeper or a vegetable seller or their favorite “Pani Puri walla” as “Bhaiya”. Here a gal never thinks about her financial status and of course never about the feelings of a guy’s heart.]

Samedha was a slim, petite girl. She had big black eyes and black shiny hair. Her figure was rich and firm. She was wearing a white and blue mixed Chudidaar. She had worn white bangles and danglers of sky blue. Though white looked the dominant color of her attire but the ting of sky blue gave her the angel like aura. She had dressed perfectly. 

She entered into a lodge and inquired about a person named Siddharth, Room number 53. The person sitting at the reception started searching for his name in the computer.

Mean while Samedha took out her cell phone and dialed Siddharth’s number impatiently. Suddenly her lovely smile disappeared. For some reason Siddharth’s number was not reachable. She kept trying cursing her phone and the network.

A few minutes later, irritated by the undue delay in finding Siddharth, Samedha asked the receptionist to send someone to fetch him.

“Bhaiya, kya aap kisiko bhej ke Mr. Siddharth ko yahan bula saktein hain?”

She was now looking totally tensed. So “our lodge wala Bhaiya” tried to console her saying “Mein abhi ek room boy ko bhejta hoon, app tab tak aaram se bethiye.”

To silence those weird thoughts she pulled out a newspaper from the stack while sitting on the sofa that lay near the reception but she was not able to concentrate on that. She realized her eagerness to meet Siddharth and blushed a little with that realization but she had to be her best before him. She straightened her clothes once again and sat there folding her hands, thinking of nothing and thinking of everything, she took a deep breathe to cool down her nerves. Now Samedha was relaxed and composed, that’s how she had wished Siddharth to see her.

It was exactly 9.32am and that’s when she heard the jolting sound of the lift. The lift doors flung and with that her lost smile flashed back on to its actual place. She gazed in that direction. The hotel boy stepped out and behind him was a fair, lean guy with striking black eyes came out with an enchanting smile on his face. He was wearing a grey trousers and black pull over T-shirt.

Samedha moved towards him and in a few seconds both were standing right in front of each other just one foot apart but still not able to believe the present.

“Hi Sam, I can’t believe that I am finally here and getting to meet you” Siddharth said offering his hand for a shake.

“Yes finally” Samedha responded in a very polite way touching his hand with that hand shake.

He smiled and nodded his head.  “So what is the plan for the day?”

“Go and get ready I am starving. Let’s go and have breakfast first.” Samedha suggested.

“I’ll be right back but till then miss me.” He tapped on her head, smiled and walked towards the lift.
