Dove Split End Rescue Shampoo doesn't just create magical strong braids, it also creates love. You do not believe me, right? Read on. This is the story of Akash, Sapna, Love and Dove :-)
Akash knew that today was the day when he had to spill his heart
out to Sapna, confess his love, and then, if things looked good, propose her
with the gold ring that he now held in his hand, admiring its soft glistening
glow in front of the mirror, the letters A and S clearly marked at the top of
the ring.
Yes, Akash and Sapna, together they would be, forever.
They had decided to meet at the Juhu beach at 5 in the evening.
The weather was cool and bright, and perfect for a romantic
date.
Akash and Sapna had been friends for five years now. They met in
college, fought and then became close buddies. They shared their lunch, snacks,
assignments, and now, Akash even shared his heart with her. However, he was
still not sure whether she too felt the same way.
He wished himself the best of luck and quickly headed towards the
beach. Sapna would be waiting for him there.
Akash reached the destination within a few minutes. Thankfully,
the traffic condition was better than most days, and there wasn't any
unnecessary delay on the way. He spotted Sapna sitting at a vacant spot facing
the sea. Akash ran and sat beside her.
"Hi Sapna," Akash smiled.
To his utter surprise, Sapna turned towards him with red eyes,
tears silently streaming down her fair cheeks.
"What happened Sapna? You don't seem to be fine," Akash
asked, eager to know the reason of her sadness.
"Just leave me alone Akash. Please go away," Sapna said
with muffled voice and hid her face in her palms.
Akash knew he couldn't leave her alone in this condition. He urged
her to speak up, "We share everything Sapna. Can't you share this with
me?"
Sapna stopped crying and looked at him. For a moment he sensed
love in her eyes. He remained transfixed in its depth, until she started
speaking.
"You know Akash, when I was small, Mom used to braid my hair
beautifully. I had long beautiful hair, shiny and strong. I was the cynosure of
all eyes in school and college only because of this reason. I won numerous
awards and contests owing to my long hair, but now ..." her voice broke
again.
Akash had a bottle of water with him, and he handed it over to
her. However, she refused to drink, and continued speaking.
"Yesterday, some relatives visited my place. They were from
my mother's family, and have always loved me. However, when they noticed
my hair, they said I should go ahead and cut it. They said I have lost the
charm in my lengthy curls," she started sobbing again. I waited patiently
and she continued after a few minutes, "I noticed that my hair is no
longer as strong and beautiful as it used to be. Split ends have appeared, and the shine has
faded. I have often felt these, but have been ignoring them till now. I can't
take it anymore Akash."
He sat there quietly. There wasn't anything he could do,
apart from giving her company. The ring in his pocket rested noiselessly,
realizing this was not the day for it to perform.
Akash held her hands softly, and tried his best to convince her,
"Don't cry Sapna. Lambe
lambe baalo mein aise chhoti chhoti problems hoti rehti hai (Small problems appear in long
hair)."
"You won't understand Akash. Tum nahi samjhoge," was her reply, and he suddenly
felt helpless.
Akash accompanied her to her home, and then walked along, not in
the direction of his house, but rather to a place he never visited before.
After walking for five minutes, he reached a temple of Goddess Durga. As he walked up the steps,
speedy winds started blowing from all directions, rustling against the temple
bells that hung from the ceiling. The bells started ringing all at once. There
was no one else in the temple, and Akash walked carelessly towards the idol.
"Aaj, khush to bahut hoge tum (Today you must be very happy). The man
who never walked up your stairs before, the man who never bowed in front of
you, the man who never stretched his arms to you asking for your mercy, is now
left stranded in your abode owing to his love.
"Yes, I love her, and it's my duty to see her happy. But how
can I see her happy when she is so depressed with her hair problem? People say
you are kind. Where is that kindness God? Where?
"I have heard you own special powers. Don't you think you can
use just a little bit of that power to make a girl smile? Can't you see my love
happy? Why did you do this to her God? WHY? WHY? WHY?"
The wind started blowing faster, and Akash found it difficult to
stay rooted at one spot. He held a pillar tightly for support, when
suddenly in front of his eyes, there was a big flash of light. As the light
faded, Akash found a young man standing in-front of him.
"Who are you?" the sudden appearance of the man was
surprising, and Akash held on to the pillar tighter.
"Don't worry son. I am a messenger of God, and have come here
to solve your problem," the mystery figure introduced himself, and then
held out his hand skywards. Quite magically, a white bottle appeared in his
palm.
The mystery figure handed over the bottle to Akash, and said
"Take this son, and give it to her. This is Dove Split End RescueShampoo. The Dove Split End Rescue Shampoo is a part of the Dove Damage
Solutions range, specially formulated to help bring split-ends together. It has
fiber actives that work on the deepest level of hair, to give up to 4x lesser
split-ends. Tell her to apply it to wet hair, lather and rinse. Her problem will
get solved in a jiffy."
Akash was too stunned with the sudden change of events. However,
he had the presence of mind to ask him an important question, "Do you
think she will love me when her problem gets solved?"
The Messenger smiled, and whispered in his ears, "Follow
my advice and you will not fail. Go home. Take the ring and ….."
The advice sounded great and Akash turned to thank the Messenger.
However, to his utter surprise, there was no one there. The wind had stopped
blowing loudly, the temple bells were no longer ringing, and devotees were
silently sitting in front of the idol. "Was this all a dream?" Akash
thought, and then nodded his head on seeing the Shampoo bottle still in his
hand. He quickly came down the temple stairs and caught a bus that would carry
him back to his home.
The next day, he gave Sapna the bottle.
After some days ...
Akash received a call on his cell-phone. It was from Sapna.
"Hi Akash," her voice was gentle and soft.
"Hi Sapna. How are you now?" It felt great hearing her
voice after 4-5 days. The Messenger had advised him to leave her alone for some
days and he was obediently following the plan.
"I am fine Akash. Well, actually, I ... I want to tell you
... something," Sapna said, her voice reflecting a mix of nervousness and
excitement.
"Yes, yes, go on Sapna," Akash was dying to hear what
she had to say.
"Akash, I, umm, I ... Thank you. You really helped me with my
problem. My hair is now back to its long lost strength. There are no split
ends, and it’s shiny and strong as before. And you know what, my Mom braided my
hair again today after so many years" she laughed like a child.
"You are welcome Sapna. I can never see you sad, you know
that," Akash smiled back.
"And Akash, well, I ... I found the ring in the shampoo bottle.
Akash, umm, well ... I love you too," she giggled and his heart fluttered.
