Abstract Love
(Bhavna Patole)
When can I talk with you?"..he ran his fingers through his hair in frustration "Baby! I am really busy, there is a dead-line you know and I cant meet you."Is this how its going to be when we are married ? When are you going to take time out for us ." "I know! I know! Call me next week I will work something out okay. Bye now, love you ." He put the phone down and tried to concentrate on the codes on the screen . An icon pinged "you have mail". He clicked on it to read the latest mail in his box. "I am thinking of you and can't wait till we chat again. love -Lucie". He had been chatting with Lucie for the past six months .. they met in a chat room and hit it off from there . Lucie was everything Rose was not . Lucie brought in all the excitement that a forbidden relationship possibly could . Passion, exhilaration , mystery. He lifted the cool mug of beer staring at the drops of moisture on the side of the mug. "John! John! are you listening to me?". He shook himself out of his reverie "I am right there with you Hon! what were you saying ?". Rose shook her head in exasperation "Which bouquet should be the centre peice for the wedding ?". He pointed at a random picture and switched off again. Back in his room , his computer screen bathing him in phospherent light he chatted with Lucie. John:Lucie I have a problem I can't be with Rose when I would rather be with you. I am calling it off . Lucie: John ! We are having fun here , you can't call off your wedding for some girl you have met on the internet. John: I have found more love and companionship with you then I ever will with Rose. Rose bores me while you make me feel alive.I think I am in love with you. Lucie :You were to marry the girl for chris'sake, did'nt you love her?. John:I only agreed to marry her because my parents wanted me to , I love you and I have to meet you.I will wait for you at Cafe Hughes at Central london tommorow at 7:00 om , say you will come. Lucie: I will be there. He waited for her for six hours in front of Cafe Hughes , holding a dozen daisies , She never came . When he finally reached home , his sister Annie was waiting for him at the door-step , "We have to go to Rose's apartment right now . Its serious" When he reached there a Detective was waiting for him "Hello ! Mr Radcliffe , I am Detective Joe". Shaking his hand . "It was a case of Suicide the paramedics were not able to save her . She had lost too much blood". He said Reeling from the shock , he gazed at he envelope that was placed in his hand .Tearing it open he found a simple note . "I am sorry John, I can't make it -Lucie".
