I got the POWER !!!!!!!

On a very chilly night we decide to go for a late night drive in our favourite Scorpio.
It has been a while since I have been to the Bhandara and hence, am eager to be there.

Hemant finally gets to drives the car all way and the difficult task of navigating him is left to me.

“What should I expect up there”
“Something like a temple of Sant Tukaram”
“*%^&% !!!!. Is it a spot you want me to be at 1.00 am?”
“Well, you actually get a lot of wind. And, its tax free. You won’t get anything of that sort in Delhi.”

This guy has now spent enough time with me and hence knows that arguing with me can be a cause of frustration.

So we find our road, take the correct turns and reach the top of the hill.

The silence of the night is heard amidst the vintage ambhang-wani and the soothing ek-tari. The wind whirling around is loud enough to absorb us.

We find a place, near the wall away from the temple, from where Dehu Road, Talegaon, and the Express Highway are visible. The newly developed industrial part, I should say. The bonnet of the Scorpio is like a lounge.

This part is full of Street lights and Industrial Lights. Hemant seems to love it.
It is too bright. I look up at the sky. It is a full moon. This implies that not many stars will be visible. The sky, for me, looks dull.

“Now imagine,” he starts…
“You are working in Punjab Power. You bring your wife to this place and cut of the power of certain parts. Such that the lights that are switched on make the words ……….. I LOVE YOU”

I frown.

“How do you feel about it”
“Some kind of stupid bollywood stuff!!!”
“tujhame rub dikhta hai, yaara mein kya karun”
"Aaahhhh !!!! I should have known, Only SRK can do that“

There is a silence again and now it’s my time to break it.
“ What if you throw an imaginary anchor at the moon and pull it closer to you. Tie the imaginary rope to your balustrade, so that the moon stays there. Wipe of the clouds with your palm. Place a few bright stars with your finger tips... oops one too many … you have to wipe it away.
And just wait there for her to come in the veranda”

Hemant is speechless. I think he has lost his thoughts.

Hmm… only Jim Carrey that can do that!
