The light seeped in and the darkness was getting covered by light.. The sun was peeking at me from between the mountains.. I shifted my head to take in more of what was happening.. My semicircular vision now encapsulated a meadow, where cows were grazing with chessboard robes. The other side had a lush strawberry fields.. I could slowly feel my feet coming alive and have a sudden urge to stand. My brain starts its engine, doing overtime to figure out, how i lay there at 180 degrees.. With a slightly damaged left jaw. I look around and walk towards my car, parked on the footpath. The keys are still in there. And then, the brain pumps a ton of blood, and it all comes back..
It all started the previous evening. I was sitting on my couch watching the sitcom "Coupling", i was chuckling at Jeffs hilarious attempts to get a girlfriend, when the phone starting crying out for attention. I was miffed, to be interrupted.. I got up to give it some attention.. It was Virat, he had got this passes for a party thrown at Taika (A disc). He gave me the responsibility to call the entire group.. We were around 20 of us. We got there by 8.. Virat was waiting there with his GF. Everybody got in. We got a table to settle down and make some noise. We eased into the place and starting jiving.. The place was hot, Jeff(remember "Coupling") would have stammered and stuttered like a rattle snake before being thrown out.. :)
Virat was dancing at the haunting trance music. I joined the dance floor after chomping into a piece of tandoori.. The DJ was cool. The crowd was hot. I needed to take a break from all the frivolous dance moves. So went to our table.. Virat's GF seemed totally drunk. She looked at me, with a gaze so sharp, a chill ran down my spine. I knew where this was leading to. She started calling me Dangz (A pivotal person from our group)."Dangz, i love u".. And smack.. The next second I looked like a drag queen with lipstick.. I looked around.. Virat was looking right me, with a stare, glaring through me. I was caught with lipstick on my face. The night was literally over for me.. It was almost 5.. I asked Virat, I needed to talk to him. He asked Dangz to take care of his GF (Irony, the police asking the criminal to follow behind with the stolen jewelery) and follow us in his car.. I drive to the meadow on the way.. We get of, I try to soften the blow first. Before revealing the story of the ungrateful GF.. I turn around. The next scene can be described as, a big bag of rocks, comes from the corner of my eye.. Time stands still(Neo style).. Followed by darkness seeping into the light of the world..
Next day we all met up and blamed it all on the intoxications.. And I decided not to interfere into the tridimensional story.. I was Jeffed(Get into situations far out of ones control)..
