P.S. - New Mantra

(It is a Sunday morning. Jeanie is sitting on a bench in the Park. She is reading a novel. A guy is sitting on a next bench who is perhaps listening to music...)
(After sometime he comes to Jeanie and asks her - - - )


Guy - Hey are you reading some novel?
Jeanie (replies Blithely ) - yeah! ( again turns back to her reading ) 
Guy -  I am a big fan of fiction... by the way which novel are you reading?
Jeanie - (tells him the title of the novel... which is a love story)
Guy - Oh !!! ( recalls the author's name) I have read his novel too ... hmm ... so you are into romantic stuff ..      hmmm... 
Jeanie - ahh... yeah you can say that... well you can sit if you want.
Guy - Oh thank you..( smiles and sits beside her... but maintains  a gap) ... hey I am Jason by the way!
Jeanie - I am Jeanie ... (smiles and shake hands)
Guy - Nice to meet you Jeanie ... so.. you come here often?? I haven't seen you before?
Jeanie - No , I have come here first time... I am new in this City.
Guy - Wow! New girl in town.... so do you have any friend here?
Jeanie - No... I am alone. 
Guy- Ohh okay No probs.. take my number in case you are in any difficulty ... 
Jeanie - But....
Guy - Oh common... we are friends , aren't we?
Jeanie -- ahh  uummmm....
Guy -Wait (takes out his mobile )  give me your number,  I will save .
Jeanie - 94193654090
Guy - okay! so I will message you and then save my number ok? ..... well..I will have to go now... catch ya later Jeanie !
Jeanie - Oh ... okay.. see ya.. !


( Uhh uufff...Jeanie is puzzled... Nice City ! Interesting People ! ....)
--------------


(Its night ... sorry early morning! - 5 O' clock ... Jeanie's phone rang... As it vibrated...she sprang up from her bed....still confused...whether its ringing in dream or reality... whatever! she picks up without seeing the number)
A Voice says - Hello
Jeanie - aaaaa..... Helloooo ...
----> Were you sleeping?? ... 
(Jeanie is silent!... confused... its night or it has been Noon???...)
--- >Ohh... I am sorry ... of course you would be sleeping...its still five in the morning.
Jeanie - Oh is it!... 
---> Yeah! I am sorry...  I ... I was just not able to sleep ... and ...
Jeanie - and you only found my number in your contact list ... whom you could wake up at this wee hour... right? No probs.. I am always there for you.(faintly smiles)
---> Yeah.... I know... why are you so sweet Jeanie?... Why you are always there for me??
Jeanie - Oh... I know I am sweet ... and ... you won't understand that so chuck it.
--->  hmm.... So , How did you find the New City?...
Jeanie - Amazing! ...

Jeanie - I met a guy yesterday morning .... he was nice..
----> ahem ahem... Nice... !!! Where? 
Jeanie - In the park....well... Nice yaa... but he was weird too... But I really liked him .. dunno why probably because he is the first person who seemed friendly to me... 
----> Good Jeanie!... I am happy for you...
(Jeanie said nothing... something ..... somewhere ...... or somehow she didn't like his words...)
Jeanie - (to herself - ohh nooo Jeanie ! Repeat the Mantra -  " NO COMPLAINTS AND NO DEMAND ) ..... ( hmm... now feeling better...)
---> hmm... chup kyun ho ?
Jeanie - Oh... aahh ... no ... nothing.. so what's your plan for today? ... [Talking to herself again  -( No... its okay... its perfectly okay.. take a deep breath... You will soon move on...you will forget all .. soon!! yes yes....) ] ( As Jeanie was talking to herself... she could only hear last strain of his reply..)
---> ............................................ sooo I think I shall sleep now... what you will do??
Jeanie - Me?.. aa.... I think I have woken up soo..will begin my chorus ... do some meditation first as its the perfect time for it! 
----> whaoo... Meditation?? Is it your new craze??

And then it says from deep down, "you don't have to find a reason for what you are." Around 5.20 am , she asked me, "Won't you wish something today?" , I looked up at the dark clouds for a sec , smiled and then nodded hard, " I would , I would , I would." and then I said, " aasmaan ka ek katra , aur wo hissa jisme mera birghtest star ho."   When we wished each other, my mom blessed me with the words, " zindagi ke sahi matlab samjho... ek din samajh jaogi.. aur tab tak samjhna jaari rakhna..."  I am feeling grateful for everything.
