Just because...You are Mine.

I can never forget the date, that smile, those eyes which were stuck on my leader badge on the left side of my shirt and those lips that murmured my name that was written on my badge.

July 16, 2013 - The day I met you. You can call it fate or God's plan because this was the beginning of our story.

The captain of our house dropped out in the early months of the academic year. So being the leader of the school it came over me to look after the progress of the house as various competitions were nearing. So I took over the charge of the house captain.

I walked to different classes to write down names of the students who were willing to participate in the Solo and Group Competitions, and that's when I stepped into her class. I informed the students who were interested to meet me up and that's what turned to be our first meet and conversation.

-REWIND-

There was a girl who walked out of the class along with other students.
She was simple, without any make up, just a thin layer of black eye liner. She looked beautiful with that approaching smile.

-STOP-

Yeah, this is my girl.

She asked me to write her name in the Group Singing Competition. So I asked out her name. "My name is Anindita," she replied. This is how I got to know her name.

The next morning, the moment I reached school, my classmate approached me and told that there's a girl of our house who was willing to participate in the dance competition. So he took me to her class. I stood outside the class, beside the door while he was calling out that girl. She caught my attention again. She was that beauty whom I met yesterday. But this time without asking her name, I straight away wrote it down.

(I'm a clever fellow. I can remember names, dates and incidents for years.)

After that, I didn't meet or interact with her for days.
