Those 5 minutes - Page 47/135

Zia and jai headed towards the station. Zia was confused 'Oh i thought we are going to the mall.Where are we going jai?' 'It's a surprise..' 'Surprise?? But don't forget i'll have to reach home sharp at 7.' Zia said with a concerned look. 'Haa re baba. I know that. Tu chal.' They boarded a train to borivli and got a rikshaw for the ferry. 'Arey. Ferry?? Bolna. Where are we going?' Zia coaxed jai. Jai put his hand around zia and gave her a gentle hug. 'Wait for some more time jaan.' Zia had no idea what jai was up to. .In a while, they got into the ferry. The beautiful view of the vast sea made zia forget all her worries. Zia rested her head on the ferry fench and gazed at the sparkling water beneath. Jai was constantly admiring his love. 'I loved the surprise' she looked at jai. He loved the calm & serene look on zia's face. The gentle breeze blowing through her hair touched jai's face..He unpined her cluch and let her hair flow with the wind. She looked spectacular.. 'What are you doing jai. We are not alone' zia whispered. Jai blinked and smiled at zia. 'Pagal' zia blushed..

They unboarded the ferry. And zia was shocked to see what she saw. There was an isolated land all over. People were going in different directions.. dont know where.. Few had their own transport. Others were walking through a narrow lane which seemed to have no end. Zia looked behind her. Even the ferry which had dropped them had left and was seen farther into the sea.. Zia was worried by now.. Jai headed zia towards the lane. Zia pulled him behind.. 'Jai. Do u even know where we are? This place looks isolated. And where are you going now?' Before jai replied, an auto stopped besides them. Jai peeped in and softly said something to the driver zia din't hear. He looked at zia and said 'I know where we are going babe. Don't worry.' And tugged her inside. The auto zoomed in the scary lane surrounded on both the sides with green farms. Zia had started to get nervous by now.. She loooked at jai. He was looking outside the auto enjoying the green fields. She remembered, he'd said that he knows where they're going. She trusted him completely.. and did not ask him anything.The auto now took a right turn, entering into another lane. But this time.. the lane had an end.. a beautiful end. . Zia could hear sounds of waves crashing and cool breeze touching her face.. She looked at jai 'Love u jai' jai knew zia was crazy for beaches. Once while in diploma,a few friends had been to Alibaug ... and he knew from then, that beaches are Zia's first love..
