Big City, Big Girls

Author: Saanwal Karamat Barlaas City: New York

New York. Big City. Big People. Big Streets. Giant Towers. Big Hopes. Heaven on earth. The ultimate destination. The ultimate happiness. An excuse to live for. So cool. So amazing. A sweet delight!

She loved to dream about it. And dreamed about living in it. It was a dream she wanted not only to see every night but in broad daylight – as a reality. With and without reasons, she romanticized about New York.

“What is the capital city of the USA?” her friend had once asked.

“New York,” she had said, without hesitation. “What else could it be?”

The world began in New York and certainly ended in it.

“We can be together there,” she had told her friend. Her eyes had sparked with hope, a comfort in them. “Yes, we two can be together there. Forever.”

“What?!” the friend had gasped.

And now they are in New York. Big City. Big People. Big Hopes. Her friend is nowhere around her. The friend does not live in her tiny apartment that she afforded by cutting down on food and other fundamental needs. The friend found another girl. Possibly a Big Girl. A Big Girl of the Big City.

Her friend left her alone. Abandoned her. And the friend flew away with the Big Girl – possessing this killing smile and grayish blonde hair. The Big Girl was not tall. Not at all tall.

And stares.

Would it have been any better if she had never ventured into the Big City and instead spent her life millions of miles away in her tiny town? Would it have been any better if she had not been able to enjoy the moments of intimacy she had with the one she loved? If not for New York, it would never have been possible. Freedom, yes, she got lots of it here in the Big City. An openness that almost consumed her. That brought the two together without them having to be afraid of ‘What will they say?’ But it is as if they were to be united only to be pulled apart…

She had never thought about it, not even dreamed. That it would turn out like this. That it would all fall apart. That there would be no going back. That she would have to go along with it, whatever of it was left.

I hate you, NY, she thinks, as memories come rushing back into her mind – of the tiny bed upon which the two lay, of the moments they relished, of the time that they dreamed away in a world of their own. They snuggled and cuddled. And laughed. And laughed.

“The capital city is Washington D.
