Unexpected love

Ch 53- Too late

TIME!

A beautiful deception capable of luring one to believe having it all under their control wall..

Until the moment comes when one realizes there's none left to control, but themselves and the memories of all.

Just like the pile of sand held in an open hand, trickling down through the fingers despite the efforts to grasp, always taking a fall..

Slipping past the squeezing fingers trying to hold on to it, leaving a tiny fraction of its grain behind for its recall!

A tiny grain of sand which if not held captive and close, disappears like the rest, swept by a thin gust of air far, when the time call!

Time has its own flow and in that its own beauty, for it cannot be commanded by wind as water can, yet only pass with unique divinity, of one long haul!

The beauty of which, was what Karan was admiring, standing in front of the tall glass mirror replaying the thoughts of the past 6 months flashing before his eyes, while he dressed himself before leaving from home.

"Best 6 months of my life"

A wide smile making it to his face as he whispered it to himself smiling at his own reflection in the mirror, dressed in white tee with an unzipped black bomber jacket and skin fit blue jeans, with a perfect match of a big black dial watch on his wrist completing his look, making him mutter to himself

"Just how you like"

A shy chuckle followed as he remembered the words of Aditi 'Jackets look good on you', before shaking his head leaving the room with a smile treading downstairs yelling to his mom nearing the door

"Mummy, I'm leaving!"

"Wait!"

"What is it? I'm getting late", asked he wearing his leather brown boots, while he heard his mom respond from kitchen

"Your papa's coming back home today, and he's got something for you!"

"Something for me?", His hands taking a pause as the sudden news of his father returning, took him by a surprise having him blinking his bewildered eyes, just when he heard his mom speak again

"Be sure to come back on time, you know he don't like it when you are not home!"

"Yeah mom, I know! I'll be back before he arrives", answering with a slight jerk of his head chucking the thoughts of this topic for later, he walked off the door.

Taking his cycle from the yard, he had just stepped out the main gate, when he noticed Aman standing out waiting for him in his cycle, commenting as soon as he spotted him coming

"Oh ho full dressed up like a hero, where r u headed huh?"

His words earning him a sullen gaze from Karan who sighed shaking his head getting on his cycle starting to tread ahead, answering uninterested

"You know where exactly!"

"Yeah, A DATTTEEEE", Smirked Aman wide following Karan behind making him furrow his eyebrows at his comment hitting back with a stare

"Shut up, it's just an evening walk"

"Oh Is it? Doesn't seem like, NOT at least the way you have got dressed up for it!", commented Aman having a look at Karan top to bottom, making him roll his eyes responding with a sullen gaze

"I can't roam around in hoodies all the time like you, can I?"

His reply had Aman narrowing his eyes as he looked at himself finding him wearing a hoodie, making him look back at Karan with a smirk
