Still missing..


I was running. I was running with my backpack on me. I was running towards a classroom. I was late and that made me anxious and I was running fast. I was coming there to meet somebody and I was late. I wanted to be there early because we both were going to meet alone in this classroom after everybody left. I was waiting for this moment since a long time and now I am late. I don’t know what was the reason I don’t know where I was and what I was doing earlier but I couldn't make it in time. I was afraid a bit too. I finally reached the classroom. The classroom was empty. No one was there in it only few bags on the benches. There was a window to the wall opposite to the entrance door, at the rear end of the room. As soon as I reached, I realized I forgot the gift. We both were meeting for friendship day and I didn't get any gift. I was going to meet her after a long time and I didn't have anything to give. I thought again of what might be there in my backpack that I can give it to her. I always give her something I make/write or something that I think is mine. But this time I didn't have anything with me. I was just wearing my J&T and was having the backpack. Not even my watch. I took my backpack and kept it on the floor to search it. Then I saw her looking into the classroom from the window and my heart started racing. I didn't want her to notice me searching my backpack so I turned around and opened it. Then a question popped in my mind, what if she enters the room and walks away without noticing me. Then I stood up and looked at her. She was searching for something/someone in the room with a very strange expectation in her eyes and it was slowing turning into disappointment as no one was in sight. I didn't know what to do. Then I felt, maybe I could give her a hug. I started to feel a little assured that I got something in my mind, but as I started to walk into the room, she came out holding her books to the chest like a college student and walked passed me. Not even looking at me. As if thinking about a plan B because plan A failed. She just walked away and disappeared. When I entered the room, there was light only at the window which fell on few benches near it and slowly it started to fade out and everything turned black. I woke up realizing I am still missing her.
