Life is a Song - Part 1

I've been waiting for a girl like you 

To come into my life

I've been waiting for a girl like you, 

A love that will survive

I've been waiting for someone new 

To make me feel alive

Yeah, waiting for a girl like you

To come into my life

And she walked into the cafe. She was elegance personified. Her satin soft hair shone in the dull light of the cafe. She walked across the floor , her sandals tippity-tapping gently while a faint drone of Acorn's Lonely drifting from her earphones temporarily shut off "Foreigner" playing on the cafe's juke box as she passed Vivek's table and laid her purse on a neighbouring table.

It had been about 4 weeks when Vivek had first seen her at the cafe and ever since had waited every single day for one glimpse of her every morning. As usual, he was in his day dreams about her with a cup of coffee in his hand when something hit his head and fell on the empty plate on the table with a TING. Puzzled he looked around and caught her eye. She looked at him and smiled apologetically. She got up and walked over to his table.

"I am so sorry. Was just fiddling with my pen and by mistake the cap flew out." "No, no, no problem at all. It just startled me a bit." replied Vivek in a voice that seemed caught in his throat. Then coming to his senses, understanding that this would be his one and only chance to talk to her, get to know her, he blurted, "By the way, I'm Vivek." She smiled, "I'm Sakshi." 

Just then her phone rang. She walked away talking on it. Seemed to be a really good friend on the other side of the line by the way Sakshi's face lit up while she was speaking on the phone. She was stuck to the phone while she worked away on her sandwich and apple muffin only pausing to sip coffee in between. Soon her plates were empty and she rose to leave. Vivek's eyes followed her movements and then she caught his eye. With a gentle flicker of fingers and a faint smile she bade Vivek farewell.

I've been waiting, waiting for you, 

ooh, I've been waiting, I've been waiting 

I've been waiting for a girl like you, I've been waiting 

Won't you come into my life?

Vivek returned back to what he was doing before her presence asked for his unwavering attention. He returned back to his book. The book that he was writing. Called Life is a Song
