I see around

This is a piece of pure fiction, I wrote in my times of slumber in a boring lecture.

I see around and I see a guy who's very innocent at heart. I don't understand how he manages to smile all the time. Simplicity and humiliation are embedded into his character.He aims high but is down to earth. He's honest all the time, bothers about people and relaxes at leisure.His recent mis-happening has impaired him to some extent but he's determinant and I hope turns to normal very soon.
I see around and I'm in a different world. This is a city where my same old friend stays. Looks like its been years now since we have met.I'm received at the airport by his chauffeur who's dressed in the most royal outfit. The weather is pleasant and in no time we reach his great mansion.
I'm surprised to see that my old friend has turned into a successful businessman.I feel proud for him because I saw the glint of success in his eyes way back when we use to have meals at inexpensive restaurants in our country.

The scene blurs and I feel as if I'm travelling through time.
I see around and I observe a beautiful garden. From the smell of the soil I can make out that this place is in my own country. There's a swing besides me on which a cute looking boy is playing. His two front milk teeths are crooked but they only add to his childish looks. He also has thick straight hair with a fringe cut. Near the garden is a gorgeous bungalow painted in brown.
At the veranda are two of my old friends, grinning at me and their son.

I'm terribly hungry and they readily invite me inside. During the sumptuous meal, we talk about our past and long lost memories. The lady asks me about my whereabouts for the past couple of years and I reply, as I used to, blushingly. Both of them pull my leg as usual and I give into the spur of the moment smilingly.
Its great to see that their love is still intact as it was years ago and they look like a couple perfectly made for each other.I wish them luck and I set out for my future journey.

I'm walking on the road and suddenly a cool breeze starts gushing through my hair. I start losing control over my mind and within no time I fell unconsious.
I'm awake knowing not what happened.

I see around and I see a hill, looking green in a perfect sunny morning, with a stoney pathway encircling around it. I start walking up the hill and in no time I reach across chapel. The building seems to be hundreds of years old surrounded with wild grass and bushes. The nature is absolutely silent and all I can hear is the chirping of birds. I walk inside. The brown colored stoney staircase has ancient carvings on it. The huge walls, on both the sides, have magnificient
windows through which bright sunlight is gushing inside revealing the holy Lord.

I see around and I see a beautiful lady now turned into a woman. With the sound of my footsteps itself, she turns around to greet me with her perfect smile. I instantly recognise her as my very old sweet pal.A lavender color top along with a black skirt are looking perfect on her. The overflowing shoulder length curly hair are intact.
Next to her, on each side, I see two cute looking girls wearing biege color frocks. Their hair are jet black hair are tightened with ribbons. Both of them are holding their mother's hands and staring at me in bewilderment. I smile at them discovering that both of them are actually twins.
They smile back at me making me feel all the more delighted.

After our prayer,we walk across the hallway onto the brightly lit pathway.
She starts pestering me with questions and I answer in monologues. Around an hour passes by and we talk about people, friends, life, relationships, future and good and bad times.

Time comes to say her goodbye and I present her with a carnation and two chocolates for the girls. I start walking across the pathway alone with a heavy heart. Tears rush into my eyes and suddenly the scene blurs.

I see around only to realize that I just saw a beautiful dream.
