""You wouldn't understand""


Today due to one meeting in morning at moolchand metro station, I left home early then routine time. As I got free from my meeting, I look at my wristwatch and I found that I still have 30minutes to wait outside My institute (Japan foundation), so I thought of waiting in CCD, which is situated in outer premises of metro station. As I walked towards it, I saw one girl, sitting near pillar of metro on pedestrian , lying down her head on her knees. As I crossed her, I heard weeping, so I did stop for a moment, looked at her, she was well dressed and seemed like educated and belonged to good family. I wanted to ask why ? But couldn't got the strength to ask her at first. So I walked 5-6steps but couldn't walk further. Turned back to her, sat beside her, took out tetra pack of my coconut water from bag, and asked her, 
Would you like to drink water ? 
She didn't give a single nod to my question. So I took out my handkerchief and again asked her.
Would you like to drink water my sister ? 
A silence were there for a minute. 
And then I could heard her sobbing. 
She took out her head from her knees and look at me. I offered her coconut water and my handkerchief. She saw me with very strange teary eyes and for the first time I couldn't get the idea what was that ? But she took both from my hands. She Wiped her face drank the water. And as I saw her than, it was like clouds removed themselves out of SUN. She was beautiful,innocent,cute but she was just a TEENAGER. 

She said thanks, I said its okay. 
Kuchh Khana hai ? 
She said no,it's okay. 
I said okay let's go to CCD and have some coffee. 
She saw me again very strangely and again I didn't get the idea. Although I started walking towards CCD, and looked back that was she following me or not, she was. 
We sat there I have ordered my favourite "devils own" for myself and she ordered some "frappe". I wanted to ask her lot of things but couldn't ask. We sat there in silence, but our eyes were talking. Lots of question but still they are just question, didn't have the answer than, don't have the answer yet. Its a generation gap when her eyes said ""AAP NAHI SAMAJH PAOGE.""
And I couldn't tell those eyes that I had the same . We had our coffees and then we walked out. 
I said Take care, and her eyes again were full of tears but they were of strength I think . She said Thanks for everything. And we part our ways.
