Young lust

As he rode into the dusty sky, the heat had him dripping sweat. But he wanted to ride on for there was only one thing on his mind-her, whom he hadn’t seen for 12 years. City life had changed him and back then all he wanted to do was keep up with his friends. His newborn desires had given him other sort of wings, so much so that he had left her back. He had smiled when he saw her for the first time and he knew he was in love-his first love. But the reverie of it was broken as soon as he finished his college and moved to the city.

His father had told him that some things are to be prized forever-especially the ‘firsts’. His mother instead of being so protective about him had tried to make sure that he took her along.

***

As soon as he parked outside his dusty, green roofed home, his mother came running. He gave her a tight hug and waved at his father, who was sitting at the window, smoking his pipe. But his eyes were searching for something else. He knew where she was and he rushed inside the old barn.

There it was, covered in dust but still a beauty-his bike-his beautiful, old bike!!!

    well, the motorcycle is primarily a mental phenomenon…

    PS: do not think of the “you should write more about it” part… most likely it is a bot…
