Whisper of the winds


Bristle swivels of wind curled through his hair, trail blazing out behind him. He loved it when the wind whispered to him like this. And an eternal smile stretched across his face. Anyone who knew him, they knew it was just the beginning for him.

He pushed hard on the throttle and the bike zoomed away. One more click of the gear, and the bike was flying now. He could feel the engine breathing hard humming on it’s own rhythm, his bike vibrating below him, the wind rushing out, and the images around him blurring away... he loved the feeling. He called it “Adrenaline Love”. And this feeling brought with it memories of his “Adrenaline”…his Love.

It was on one such summer evening that he had made his first “Adrenaline Love”. He was overjoyed, as his fate had blessed him with his long awaited dream. They had managed to sneak out from their parents that evening and were on a long drive. A dream that both had been unspokenly fantasying for long deep within their hearts. She sitted glued to him, hugging him tight and her eyes closed. It’s not that she was afraid of his fast biking; in fact she loved when he made her fly on his own pair of wings. She smiled and hugged him even tighter placing her head on his back. Somewhere amongst that fast rustling wind, she could still feel his heart beat. It was a sound which she could recognize anywhere on earth… the only sound which called her name each time it bet. She gently lifted her head and planted a kiss on his shoulder. Suddenly she felt the bike slowing down. She opened her eyes, and found him peering back on her. His icy glance was piercing through her eyes…no, through her soul. He stopped the bike. So did the girl’s heart beat. “Did he get angry?”, whispered her thoughts. She felt guilty for spoiling such a moment. He stepped down, came close to her. Just a few inches from her he stood, still peering deep into her beautiful eyes. She could feel his hot breath on her face, she could smell his exotic fragrance… He came close, his lips hovering over her’s. He lifted her face a little and a whisper escaped through his lips “I love you”…. And their lips met.

It’s years past that summer evening… but still those moments linger fresh on his mind. As lost he was in his thoughts, he did not realize the speeding vehicle approaching him… a sudden surge of light blinded his eyes. His reflex put his fingers tight on his brakes but he … he just smiled his ever eternal smile. And at the very moment those three words whispered back at him. May be someone somewhere on earth was answering him.

But it was all black now… and for him now they were just a “whisper of the winds”.
