an inch taller?

You know how you feel so grown-up on certain days. And you know, right till the feeling is a part of your protoplasm, how you will never turn back from this day; that you will remember this exact moment on this late afternoon, with keyboards clicking around you and people talking about the plans for tomorrow’s party; when the distant screech of a truck’s brakes don’t push you out of your zone; the coffee bitter; the kohl all smudged around your eyes and the breath that zooms around the insides of your body till it finally runs out…….that even after an eternity has passed, you will remember this moment when something, some overwhelming connection gave you a comforting insight and suddenly, just like that, you had become a stronger, better person and in some inexplicable way you had grown up.
