ThE PeRfEcT BoyFrIenD !!!

Well, I hope the Title of this Post does sound interesting to the reader ;-).. But before it creates any misconception I would clear it beforehand that what ever I am about to narrate here is not a story of my life, but somehow i believe that every girl (including myself) will be able to relate to it in some or the other way...
Not wasting much time the story begins..
Scene 1: [Flash back about 22 years back.. 1986]
There was this sweet little girl called Heena who had a very ordinary and peaceful childhood. She had loving parents who gave her enough freedom to take her own decisions and who trusted her completely. Being an only child she was more comfortable with her lonliness. Adding to it she was shy to make new friends at school and thus ended up being an intorvert and a loner.. She only had a pet dog whom she adored and was the REAL friend she had :-). Their was this another boy called Shobit who was always around Heena when ever she was alone. He used to play pranks on her, crack jokes for her, play all her favorite games with her and do whatever Heena wanted to do. In simple words HE was HER BUDDY :-) [The DOSTI Begins.....]
Scene 2: [When Heena was 10yrs old.. 1996]
On 17th of September, 1996 a couple moved into the apartment next to Heena's. This couple had two kids, a girl (Kritika - 12) and a boy(Rohit - 10). Within a week from their arrival Heena had two new friends. But, it seems that Heena had hard luck in having people around her :-(.. Kritika and Rohit had to leave within a fortnight to their boarding schools.. So finally at the end it was only Heena and Shobit again...[The BOND Continues....]
Scene 3: [Heena as a teenager]
As the days passed, Heena grew up to be this simple, sweet, charming, adorable, very independent and cheerful girl so she was not an introvert any more :-). Shobit was the only one responsible for this change in her.. Whosoever knew Heena, was also aware of Shobit. She could talk hours about him. Whenever she was with him she was having the best time of her life...
She did miss her friends Kritika and Rohit occassionally but somehow Shobit's presence would cover up for that loss. Whenever Heena was sad or gloomy Shobit would appear from nowhere and brighten her day as always.. It seemed like they were there for each other alwayz and both of them enjoyed it that way!!!
Well, now we all know when its like THIS between a BOY and a GIRL... we have A LOVE STORY going on here ;-)!!! On her 16th birthday, Shobit proposed Heena (as expected ;-)) and what is more obvious that Heena accepted (ofcourse...expected :-)).. [The LOVE Begins.....]
Scene 4: [Heena after graduation]
For 5 years Heena and Shobit were committed to each other, however in these past 10 years she had seen Rohit for about 5 times and each time she saw him she felt something...[:-o surprised!!! shocked!!! mai bhi..]. She wanted to tell Shobit about it but she couldnot. She tried hard not to feel something or anything about Rohit .. but she couldnot... :-(. (pyar mein kabhi kabhi aisa ho jata hai....). This time when Rohit was back he had completed his graduation too and was back in the city for job hunting. Everytime Heena saw him, she used to have butterflies in stomach, heart beats would race up, she would become self conscious and end up doing something stupid. Shobit noticed it and decided to talk to Heena about it. They both had to confront each other on this. After hearing Heena's story he decided to leave her for good and not to have any contact with her (Kahani mein twist !!!! :-o). Heena got scared of this thought of not having Shobit around her. That also for a guy whom she doesnot know that well, who might not have any feelings for her and moreover who might think she is just another stupid and a very ordinary girl... She apologized Shobit and decided to make it work again.. [The STRAINED relationship begins.....]
Scene 5: [Rohit ko kuch kuch hota hai ;-)]
Wow... now this is some love triangle. Rohit and Heena ended up in same workplace :-)!!! [God's Conspiracy I would say ;-)]. They had lunch together, coffee together and ended up discovering each other with both of them liking each other more every time they meet. Even Heena's parents liked Rohit a lot.. [Total conspiracy of God !!!! beta shobit teri to waat lag gayi :-(]. Then one fine day, on a rainy afternoon (total romantic mausam - July11) Rohit proposed Heena and was about to have his magical kiss as expected ... but Heena freaked out [:-o]. Heena then told Rohit about her perfect boyfriend Shobit. Rohit was heart broken and shattered, he was more hurt on knowing that Heena never mentioned Shobit to him. Heena was also confused as to why was she not able to tell Rohit about Shobit since Shobit is the first person anyone would hear about from Heena...[The TRAJEDY continues...]
Scene 6: [Gettogether of families - 2008]
Rohit was avoiding Heena for all good reasons. Heena tried explaining things to Rohit but he always steered away from her. But (God's conspiracy ;-)) their family had a gettogether on 25 anniversary of Rohit's parents. Heena's mother was a chatterbox and in her conversation she mentioned before everyone about Heena's IMAGINARY FRIEND SHOBIT [:-o :-o :-o.. baap re shocked as HELL :-O.. mai bhi..] She told everyone that since childhood Heena is having company of her imaginary friend Shobit who is supposedly her boyfriend too :-) and what a PERFECT BOYFRIEND he is ;-).... When Rohit heard this he was dumbstruck.. He thought he was going through a lot of pain, guilt and suffering just because of a person who actually never exists... Everybody else over there had a laugh of their time but the only two in pain were Heena and Rohit... [The ANGER continues....]
Scene 7: [Its Now or Never - Decision Time]
Rohit leaves the party and runs away, Heena as expected follows him.. But she was stopped by Shobit. Heena and Shobit had their final talks. Shobit explained Heena that he cannot bear to see her like this. She had do decide on one man and make things work. This was the most difficult time for Heena. On one hand was Shobit who was PERFECT in every way a girl could dream of a boyfriend. However he was not REAL. This TRUTH BITES but its TRUE, You cannot have some things PERFECT in REALITY. You have to compromise in REALITY with REAL things in order to make things PERFECT :-).. Her Imaginary Boyfriend was perfect, she had spent years with him.. but he doesnot exist. Where as on other hand was a guy, Rohit - who loved her, who wanted to make things PERFECT for her in REALITY. She had to make a CHOICE. She had to Choose between a PERFECT BOYFRIEND and a REAL BOYFRIEND??. This time again with Shobit's help but for the last time.. she took her decision and kissed Shobit Good-Bye. [:-)]. she ran towards Rohit, explained him all about her lonely childhood, how Shobit came in her life, how he changed her life and how he left from her life.. Everything was said and done hoping Rohit would understand her.... [The DILEMMA continues....]
Scene 8: [Its Now or Never part two ;-) God where are you!!!!]
The decision time is alwaz crucial, we all might be aware of decision but still, till the time when it is announced the heart does beat fast. Rohit told Heena that he might not be a perfect boyfriend like Shobit, he might not be as understanding as him, he might not always know the right thing to say, right jokes to crack, right moves to make like Shobit,... But he does understand Heena and would always make his best efforts to keep her happy..(he had to after all he loved her ;-)). Rohit (as expected) understood Heena and they both accepted each other as they are...Finally God did make an entry and oh boy what an entry he made... ;-). This is what i would say a PERFECT Couple ;-)!!!! Cheers....Njoy!!!
Note:- Shobit is imaginary character. Scene 1 mentions that the only REAL friend Heena had was a DOG prior to meeting Kritika and Rohit :-)!!!
