A trip with our gang..
It was 4:00AM and none of us was feeling sleepy. We were driving from Singapore to Kuantan.. Adi, behind the wheel, was crazy for driving, that's why we decided to drive all the way to Kuantan instead of taking a cheap flight.. Sana, Adi's Girl friend, was busy in capturing every moment of the trip by her tiny-miny, but hi-fi camera.. We were stopping after every mile to capture a scenic view from the road side.. Aman and Swati, a sweet couple and our friends, were posing like budding love birds.. I was in the front seat with magnifying glass scanning through the route map and was acting as a navigator..Through out our trip, we were enjoying songs on the DVD player and by our budding talents in the car..We took a break at Kota Tinggi, a famous water fall on the way to Kuantan. We fuelled our body with some food and started for Kuantan.
We reached Kuantan around 3PM. We had a booking in Hyatt Regency on the beach side. We kept our luggage in sea-facing room and ran towards the restaurant in the hotel, as we were all very hungry. We enjoyed delicious food served to us. Hotel staff was very friendly..While finishing up food, it was already evening..We decided to set bonfire on the beach and play antaksihiri. We did all the preparation for the evening and started our game.. While we were all busy having fun, someone sitting very close to water caught my attention..I excused myself from the group and went a little closer to the person..I was amazed by what I saw.. A very beautiful girl, wearing white dress, was sitting on the beach.. I mustered courage and went little more closer the girl.. Now I was totally flat by her beauty.. She was very beautiful. Pearl shell necklace was adding charm to her charismatic beauty.. Her gleaming eyes were like twinkling starts in the sky. I had never seen an angle. But if angels do exist, it should be like her. I was so impressed by her beauty that I couldn't resist myself going close to her. To start conversation, I asked her name. Hearing my question she gave me a glance as if her parents never christened her. A moment later she replied, "Sheen". I wanted to ask her what she was doing there, but a thought of intruding other's life stopped me from asking this. But later, during our conversation, she told me that she lived nearby. I wanted to live every moment of that evening. Around mid-night she decided to leave with a promise to meet next morning again.. I helplessly said her good bye and was watching her image going away from me. That night I couldn't stop myself thinking about her and admiring her beauty.. She left an impression on my heart. I didn't know what to call it. Was it love at first sight.. But I didn't believe in love at first site. Juggling with the thoughts I slept very late.
Next morning, Aman asked me to get ready to start our journey back to Singapore. But I was peeping out of window from my sea-facing room. My eyes were looking for Sheen.. But there was no trace of that lovely girl. With heavy heart, I got ready to go back. Till this time I haven't told anybody about that girl. During our journey back I was very sad. Everybody kept asking me the reason..When their questions became un-resistible, I told them the whole story of that girl..And inquired if they also had seen her last night. But none of them said yes.. Then I realized that it was my imagination in which I had a nice time..But it was a lovely imagination. I am still looking for girl of my imagination. Sooner or later will find her.. Or who knows I have already found her..
