Good Bye from India...So after staying for exactly a month, together, it was time to go back to Pakistan for her and time to go back to the UK for me.
We went to Mumbai with Parvez and stayed there for a day before we sorted out her tickets for Karachi. We spent a day in Mumbai shopping around. I was not in mood for anything. All I could think was that she will be gone for another 3-4 months and I will be back to the boring UK all alone. I was so used to her being with me, her non stop talking, her smile, her laughter and her tears. Yeah, in our being together for a month, we managed to have a fight as well :-p but that was just for a couple of hours and I did see the river of tears flowing down her cheeks :-(
Her flight was on 8th January, mine was on 9th. After seeing her off, I stayed at my aunt's place for a day and left for the UK. It was the most boring flight I ever took. I wasnt in the mood of eating anything, all I wanted was her. Atlast I reached home, back to the boring place. My housemates were there but still felt all alone. It took me almost a week to get back to normal. The hour long phone calls started again but this time the experience was totally different. All my previous phone calls were to an imaginary person whom I had never met, never seen, never touched and never hugged. This time I could imagine her talking to me. I could see her smile through her voice. It was good and it was sad at the same time, being so near and far at the same time.
