Her lips! So soft as cherry marshmallows,if they exist. All the time I wondered how it would be to gain her attention but this moment; it’s real and it’s happening right now. Such beautiful eyes, those perfect eyelashes and her fragrance. I can never forget. This moment is all I ever wanted.
The realisation from dream to reality sucks but it is even worse when it has to be from the Alarm bangs in your head.I started to work with a lot of disappointment yet happiness with a hope that my dream will come true. it was so real, I can still feel the moment just right now.
While I was on the way to my work, I saw her in an office cab. I couldn’t believe for a second, after all these years why would I see her now? I questioned myself and yet drove faster to confirm as my last night's dream was pushing me. My heart is racing and my mind is both curious and anxious.
I ended up following her to the office and luckily I had my friend working in the same company so I asked him for the shift details and headed back to my work to come back at 6:00pm. I was in no mood to work, felt like I found one piece of treasure.
Checking the clock every so often waiting for 6:00. Every second feels like an hour and every hour feels like forever. I rushed out finally and drove as fast as I could to reach her. Finally when I was near the gate, there she was waiting for someone. It was too early for her shift to finish but she is here. “Well, that was unexpected!” I thought and waited while she was getting into a cab. I wanted to follow her but somewhere deep inside I felt it’s not ethical to do so. “Bunk it” I told myself and dropped those ethics and started following her. It was near the metro station where she got down and walked into a cafe nearby.
“Man! I don’t like where this is going. I think there is someone in her life already! Well it’s not her fault but it’s mine. I haven’t approached her even once to convey my feelings.” I walked in to at least check them out.
While I entered, There she was!! Looking right at me. I don’t understand? Empty table and just her? Where is the guy? Is she here for just a coffee? Or is he on the way and she is too early? My mind is jumbling up with all the possible questions it can make at this moment to freak me out but she is still staring at me so first I just wanted to grab a table and I walked towards a table near the glass wall. I was pretending to check my phone and I felt one of the waiters had come to take the order so I looked up and there SHE WAS STANDING NEXT TO ME !!
Does she know me? I tried all the possible ways to start a conversation but ended up with “Can I help you?”
“Yes! I want you to complete what you wanted to say last time.”
“Ahm, have we met? Are you talking about me?”
She smiled and replied with “Even I am experiencing the snowfall at this moment.”
My heart is filled with millions of feelings and my eyes are in tears. I don’t understand anything!! I can’t figure out how or when but this is real. “It’s better than last night.” I cried
“Last night?” She questioned.
“Never mind! Just one question I got to ask. How?”
“Your friend! The one with all the complaints for the hunt on an imaginary beautiful girlfriend if she ever exists.”
Unable to express my feelings, I stand frozen ! Don’t know what to say or how to respond. I feel so blessed at this moment. Those butterflies in the soul and nature signs that people talk about when they see the right ones in life. I feel them! I really do but the butterflies in her smile and the nature signs in my best friend. A brother who I wish to share a bloodline with.
I stood up and confessed to her "I don't know about snow falls but maybe I'm experiencing it at this moment." With tears in my eyes and an uncontrollable smile.
