A Twitter Short Story

                    What is this? A very very short story titled ‘Twitter short story’. Guessed where the action takes place? All right good. Is this a real story? No!. My common sense and ego has succeeded in thwarting my sincere efforts to convince myself that this is a real incident from my twitter life. Fact is that it is a fiction. But what is the truth? It’s not in my nature to complicate things .May be these cute people who scan twitter every other minute might find some resemblance which could be their illusion or co incidence or just that, it’s the truth!

The story:

                          They met each other by flawless chance. No other pollutants. Just pure chance. It was a typical definition for ‘chance’ that you would find in any lexicon. He  clicked on a random trending topic and magically(no black magic) she appeared on his timeline. She likes talking about her studies. She doesnt think that it is a show off , he thought. She thought that he thinks of her as the many other typical cute girl from her country. But she thinks she is not as cute as them.

                        She showed her funny teeth through her profile pic. He laughed revealing his even more funny teeth. Funny teeth aint mean not cute they both tought.  She wouldnt have winked when she told  ‘I am taken’  had she knew beforehand that he would say ‘I never asked ’.  He would have taken a cuter pic of her for her profile pic when she decides to look cute some day . He would have taken pics of her mehendi  decorated hands and feet on festival days and she wouldn’t really mind. He would, he thought,if only they both were brother and sister.

             
       They both still  look askance at each other. And they still continue to talk to each other. Next thing he would say is ‘You look very cute in your background pic’. She would giggle. Her boy friend would  giggle after reading the comment the next day. They both wonder what they think about each other. Khuda jaane! By the way,Let me wish them lots of happiness in their respective lives! *tick* *tock* *tick* *tock* LIFE GOES ON. . . *tick* *tock* *tick* *tock*
