The Story of Long Distance

LDC, You may have guessed by nw.. it is Longg Distance Ch.....pa. Ocassionaly many of us get into it and though love is love and the feeling is awesome, LDC has its own charm and a very different set of attributes. The mobile, needless to say plays a role much more significant than we realize..

In Good times:

By Good times, I mean the period in the cycle, when everything is just too good to be true. You are perfectly @ peace, and not subjected to any emotional attyachars. ...

You wait for your mobile to beep, the moment it beeps you heart skips in expectation... though more often then not, the messages are from Uninor... stil, the moment "that" number flashes, the one you were longing to see, you feel overjoyed.. read it.. something sweet awaits in the inbox... may be a smile, may be a kiss..

The moment the mobile rings, your heart beats harder... yes, its that number again.. the voice will soon reach your ears.. that voice which you have longed to hear since morning is just an "acceptance" away..(--).. when you hung up, your wait for the next call has just begun..

The mobile houses in it those moments, those messages which you love to read a hundred times with a smile unknwingly hanging on your lips.. it houses those little moments of fun and laughter,
the ones without which your LDC is meaninngless..

Every LDC has a defined hour in the night, when the mobile will ring, has to ring, you knw it, you want it.. this is the hour when you keep checking your mobile evey minute .. almost.. the call has to come, should have come by now..not yet.. and then it comes.. (--)..the silent sound of the kiss.. lucky man.. you can sleep now .. your dreams have been wished sweet.. the night has just become a bit more beautiful..a bit more restless.

You rub your eyes in the morning only to check if the mobile has the message, the wish of good morning..it has.. a good morning indeed..

In Bad times:

The period of emotional torture..

The wait for the beep is on.. only this time though it beeps , there is nothing sweet waitinng for u in the inbox..better dont read it.. delete it.. if you have pissed " that number " enough, you may even get to read a few, rather unpleasant ones..

Will the moble ring? The voice.. when will you hear it again.. these thoughts occupy your mind.. will the wait ever end.. it never does.. the mobile lies by your side, motionless , dead.. you feel like throwing it away.. the mobile stares at you with dread in its eyes..

Those sweet moments housed in the mobile.. you can read them again to cheer your mood.. only, in some crazy spur of a moment, you may have already deleted everything.. the box is empty .. jst as your soul and heart... you can only regret in futility and suffer in call-lessness..

That hour in the night, the predefined hour... the call has to come, the number has to relent... you always knew "the number" sooner or later relents...never betrays you in this hour.. atleast never till now.. will tonight the call come? it may .. it may not.. the mobile alerts you.. someone has called! is it that number.. ? Alas, it is not.. your frustration at your mobile increases undyingly... you can sleep now.. your nights have just gone longer..

The morning has come, the message has not yet.. neither did the call...

A day , a week, a month.. the mobile kept giving you false alerts and heart beats..you cant blame the mobile, it has tried its best...only, that number never rang.. you decide to delete it in anger.. but how can you delete it from your brain cells.. you have unknwingly stored it in such a place from where even you cant delete it.. you are screwed..

Conclusion:

• The mobile is your true friend.


• It is also an indicator of how well you have managed your LDC


• LDC cannot run without a mobile


• Lastly, dont screw your mobile, it was only helping you...

PS: Present physical state of my mobile: healthy

Inbox: Empty.

PS again: This time with a :) .. Please dont take the bull shit too srsly, the things have been written for fun.. and more often than not.. I believe, the number does call, it alwyas does and your LDC falls back into the good time period.. but the cycle does repeat, and thats wht LDC is all about.. Happy LDCing..:)
