The Day was the ominous Tuesday: 27 April, 2010. I knew something was amiss with her. She wasn't her normal self. She blinkered most of the time when I had her in my gaze. As with every evening, I warmed up to her, running my fingers on her silky smooth body, working upon it gently than the other days wherein I would just bring my weight up on her.
The moment gave me lucid memories of our first meeting. It was more than 3 years ago on Jan 25, 2007. She was a real stunner of a beauty. Little did I know that our relationship would stand the test of time and go stronger with every passing twinkle of time. The experience of my friends didn't deter me from sharing everything that was me with her. I was warned but I heeded none. I was in love and more than that I trusted her. She knew my friends, how I used to spend my last year in college. I let her have a say in my chats in Gtalk and yahoo messenger.
Through her I started my blogging days. Quest was born because of her. She was all along with me when I joined work. I shared my days at work through the numerous pics that I took with my N 70. The days in my project site was shared each and every instant with her through a plethora of pics. She was the only person at that time who knew about my desperate attempts to save a baby squirrel that was dying after getting lost from its mother and how I gave it mouth to mouth respiration and still failed in saving its life.
The past just flashed across my mind when I saw the blueness in her eyes. Was she dying?
Suddenly her face was fully engulfed in a blue wave of color. It was the Blue Screen of Death. My laptop slipped into coma. Attempts to resuscitate her came to a naught. The recovery discs was missing. She was in coma for 4 days and 4 nights. On the 1st of May, I killed her and let her free from the misery of living with memory loss. She was hanged until death. Well that was short for a life spanning 3 fruitful years.
With her went all the 3 years of memories that we shared. The memories that we created together. Those memories are still fresh in my mind and the relationship with her made me understand that laptops are very infidel in nature and they can't be trusted. So I got a new mistress in the form of a portable drive where I am going to duplicate the new memories of my laptop.
