Things didn't go according to plan yesterday. We had everything charted out, but 3 am found us at lakeside. We were just a bunch of friends sitting together, 'neath a golden moon.
It was so painfully sweet sitting there, laughing over memories and talking nonsense in that delicious stillness.
The day, the tourist asked Shrax if she knew where IDC was, whereupon Shrax nodded her head saying, 'yes' thinking she had done her job! The tourist had to laughingly rephrase her question to 'SO where is IDC?'
The day we piled up in Tap and Gujjwujj's room and watched a horror movie, clutching each other and eating copious amounts of gujju snacks.
The day we painted our wing t-shirts. The outings we had gone on, the places we had been to, the people we had met!
Our past seemed to be separated from us by just a pale quiver of moonbeams. It was very near and very, very dear.
After that at around 5ish we went to the VMCC roof top, considerately making enough of noise to dislodge any sweethearting couples. The view was breathtaking! Tap saw hope in the shining lights of the airplanes that roared above us, while I saw hope in the beacon of light shining through the tangle of trees on Sameer hill. We watched as the sky lightened and dawn broke.
Shrax was in her element! She organized a full scale photoshoot. I don't think I've laughed half as much at the kind of poses she was wheedling us to do!
It was pretty satisfying to see the sun rise. The sky was streaked with pink. It was as if Aurora had decided to become a hipster and had got highlights! :P
It just shows doesn't it? Everything happens for the best.
