The girl in the rainy mist..

The girl in the rainy mist...

It was a beautiful rainy evening on a scorchy May day. As I turned my car inside the University campus.. The lush green campus which is a visual treat even in normal days... greeted me with its green spread with excited  peehus peeping out from here and there. I rolled my windshields down to feel the  cool " phohar" on my face..and it was then that I spotted her..a beautiful young girl around 23-24 yrs old.. she was standing on the side of the driveway where the turn for teachers residences is.. She signaled for a lift.. I stopped. She got in.. Once she sat next to me I noticed she was even younger and prettier than I thought.. She smiled at me and then before I could mutter a hello to her.. She started looking out of the window.." No courtesy in these youngsters " I whispered to myself.. And looked on the road ahead.. Though I noticed like a typical girl her age.. She didn't have ear phones plugged on .. Nor was she addictively  scribbling on her mobile .. I suddenly felt a soft hand on my hand on the steering wheel.. I turned to see her gesturing me to stop.. She wanted to get down.. As she got out the girl turned and gestured in her sign language.. " A big thank you .. Sorry I am deaf and dumb so couldn't talk to you"... And As she confidently crossed the road I kept on halted looking at the empty road for few minutes and then turned on the wheel whispering to myself " how easily we judge. .. She taught me something important today"... And then drove back home amidst  the rainy mist..
