The girl in the green dress


“Damn its already 10:00pm, I haven’t even decided what to wear”, she muttered to herself and rushed to check her  wardrobe  as if she don't know what is there in her wardrobe, as if some interesting stuff came magically out of nowhere. “Oh God! What to wear I don’t even have a single dress to wear tomorrow” she said to herself in depressing tone. She even look at those dresses  that she decided not to wear in any case, in the hope that they miraculously look good, may be now.  Hell! Why don’t I have anything sophisticated to wear. Can I wear this, no it’s too long I don’t wana look out of fashion , can I wear this, it’s too tight for a date, what about this red short top, well I think it’s too bright for day time. .  After half an hour of mental fight she choose 4 of her best dresses in the hope that at least one will make her look pretty, though she look good in all, but this time she was confused. Well it was 11.00 pm till then, usually her sleeping time, but today she was in no mood to sleep before deciding the dress for tomorrow. It was a big day for her she was meeting him after so long. She don’t wana end up looking Yuck. “Now, I have to choose one dress out of four”, she said to herself and start giving all four dresses a try.  Out of four dresses she decided to wear black. “Black is his favourite colour and black makes me look fairer” she thought.  Oh wait a min, isn’t I wore black on last date. Hell! what he gona think that I don’t have dresses to wear, no ways he won’t even remember it’s almost a year man. No wait a min he surely gona remember, his memory is sharp. Shit! I will not be wearing black.  Then what should I wear now. She sat tired and confused. She closed her eyes and thought of him, she imagined him sitting opposite her, looking deep into her eyes and saying, “to my eyes you are the most beautiful person’ I'd never get tired of watching you , you look good in whatever you wear, you are my perfect lady.”  She opened her eyes and felt that she was the most amazing and beautiful lady on earth, she was feeling like Princess, princess to his prince.  She finally decided to wear her green dress, she remembered her mom once said that green makes her complexion brighter.  She felt good after deciding her dress.  She chooses her sandals and accessories too. It was almost 12. Before sleeping she made a call to him, like she did daily but today it was different as if she have all the lady luck with her. She slept with his dream.  Woke up at 7.00 just to make sure she doesn’t miss any single thing.  Again watched her dress, ironed it and went for a quick shower. She Blow Dried Her Hair, applied kohl, wore that green dress, wore sandals, and wore her favourite musk perfume. Here she was ready to meet her Prince, gave a final look in the mirror, waved flying kiss to the princess waving back from the mirror and left to meet her prince. She reached before time, standing at the side of the road waiting for him, he came hugged her and they decided to sit in the restaurant.  She felt something negative in him, he was not the same, he was not looking straight into her eyes, was either busy on cellphone or noticing other people.  She thought might be something wrong with her makeup she hurriedly stood up excused him and went towards rest room, she looked at herself in the rest room mirror, nothing wrong, am looking good, she thought, then why dint he said anything, I wasted my whole night deciding what to wear and he dint even noticed.  She felt like crying but stopped herself coz she don’t wana ruin her kajal that she carefully applied for him, as he once told her that he loved her kohl eyes. She came back sat there as if nothing was troubling her. They chatted for a while still he dint noticed her. Then on some point he became angry, yelled on her and stood up. To her shock he went towards the counter made the payment and went outside the restaurant leaving her alone to face all the bulging eyes.

What? Was not it a date? What’s wrong with him? Whatever wrong happened he should not move like this. She tried hard not to cry but a single drop of tear ran towards her cheek. She hurriedly rushes towards the washroom. She cried, and cried and cried, her kohl eyes never stopped her from crying now. And her kohl spread all over her face, made her face wretched. Now she was not feeling amazing and beautiful, she was no longer princess and there was no prince for the princess.

(When people walk away from you, let them go. Your destiny is never tied to anyone who leaves you, and it doesn't mean they are bad people. It just means that their part in your story is over. Don't waste your time and effort on people who don't care about you, who hurt you, and who bring you down. Instead find the people who love you, through thick and thin, wrong and right, good and bad, these are the only people worthy of your time).
