Date fixed, Divorce Papers ready, Alimony negotiated, A new marriage is waiting, excitement to start all over again - Suddenly, just before signing the papers, you realized, you arnt ready to let go off yet. She has been a part of a very significant you.
Ya, you must have realized, who is the "she" I am talking about.
Today, as I was about to sell off my 8 years old TVS Star City, I suddenly felt a very deep, unexpressable emotion for the bike. I could never have thought of myself, being so emotional(not even when I was dumped
). I just couldnot give the buyer the bike. I requested him, to leave it with me for one more day. I cant believe what has happened to me. In the past 10 days, I was desperate to sell it for a New Jupiter. The buyer respected my emotions and let it with me. I bought it home, Washed it thoroughly, applied WAX for one last time. AND now, I dont want to let it go. But I know, as the emotion settles, things will be back to normal, and again I would look to sell it. Again the process might repeat.
This was my first bike(Dad's gift ofcourse) in 2006. Never ever has betrayed me and still delivers 60kmpl in city. Sole reason for selling is, it wont be used or taken proper care of, after the Scooter comes.
Hope Everyone has atleast once gone through this phase, when you have realized the true love for your bike during the separation.

(A real human one, not a car or bike) but when it comes to the vehicles I own, I can never think of selling them. I can not make myself to sell my bicycles because I had too many near death experience with it and came out alive, so I kind of felt like it was a part of me. Also, I had the exact same bicycle since I was in 4th grade, so I grew up with with it and it would be weird to live without it.
. But the feeling varies with individuals. It was my first love, and 8 years is not a small time. I had taken utmost care of the machine and it has reciprocated.
