First Love

i know sameer for last 15 years. He was with me in my school.

A smart,handsome guy. He is very popular among girls.

I remember he was in love with anita during schooldays.(name changed as always).
sometime during 12th standard anita dumped him. I still dont know what happened between the two.

All i knew that he was deeply hurt by the separation. I thought "He will cry for few days and then will move forward"

He took time to recover, then started going along with other girls. He dated girls i can only dream about. He dated models,rich western suburb girls, and one Irish girl who was in mumbai for studies.

He is part of new youth culture, So physical relationship was also part of it.We used to say "Bandaa Yeh Bindaas hai"

Thursday evening he called me up, took me to palm beach road. He parked his car. took out his cigarette. but he did not lit it.

Sameer :Anita is getting married"
Me : "Anita, who?"
Sameer : "The one who was in our class"
Me : "Oho, your first girlfriend, Man!!! must be in your nappies when you got yourself a GF..lol..


Sameer : "I still love her"
Me : "Hey champ, don't tell me, you two separated 7-8 years back, and you cant count on your fingers how many girls you had last few years"

I couldn't digest that he will feel any bad about an ordinary girl who dumped him 8 years back.

And next moment he started crying like a baby. I was in complete disbelief.

For a moment i though he was behaving stupidly. Looking at his high profile lifestyle and female fan following, he has absolutely no reason to cry for anita.

But now when i look around, i see many Sameers.

I still dont know how will i react when i will face the same situation.........

Life is beautiful....Love just makes it better.......
