After my encounter with the reality, I accepted the truth and faked my happiness. To be honest, I just don't know what exactly was it, I mean I wasn't in love..!?
Forget about love, we were not even friends. How could I feel so selfish, or maybe I wasn't.
I myself wasn't clear what was wrong with me.

I'm not a person who is a love type thing. Love for me was just somewhat more a compromise rather than in dept friendship. I am a person who feels love comes with time, a person is created for each one and no matter how far my Prince was he will come to me. Yes! my prince... But why on earth did I get affected?

Once we were done with our morning exercise we were asked to go in the basement. Soon, we had our Bible session which was taken by Mr. Fernando. He is one of the most kind person I have ever known. The way he preached was such an eye opener and very fact he mentioned was amazing.

I could see David from the corner of my eye. He looked mesmerizing. The way he smiled and laughed at every little joke of Mr. Fernando, made me happy. The way his eyes twinkled blew me away. I keep on looking at him until I realized, it was wrong. I at once had put my thoughts away and changed my direction.

"Ok! so with this we come to an end of this session with Mr. Fernando." Said Nicholas.

As soon as he said so, Mr. Fernando had told Nicholas that he would love to have a little chat with the kids above the age of 14. Everyone out there had their faces which clearly read, 'Oh! another boring Bible session'. I on the other hand was excited.

"Friends of age of 14 and above, please move to the terrace, Mr. Fernando would like to talk to you all."

As Nicholas said so we all hurried to the terrace. Everyone grabbed their chairs and sat down so did Carol, Clare and I. We sat together, while we were talking I saw David come up and he took a chair and sat right in front. As soon as Clare saw him she asked him to come and sit with us.

"Hello everyone. How are you all doing these days?... I have not called you all here for some talk so don't be tensed..."

As soon as he said so everyone had a sense of relief .

"All I want is to talk to all of you casually. I like talking to youngsters as I get to hear and learn new things from you all. So what would you'll love to talk about? Let me hear it from you?!"

"Relationships" said someone from the crowd.

"Ok! that's interesting" said Mr. Fernando

"So what about relationships?"

Everyone stared each other.

"Ok! lets see what girls would like to say about it?"

He then started looking around to call someone. I for no reason started getting tensed, I've got this fright of talking in public, moreover when i'm surrounded around people I don't know, it just makes it more difficult. He looks here and there when he caught my sight. OMG!... PLEASE not me, no freaking way am I getting up. He walked closer as I freaked out. He then stretched out his arms and it passed besides me. 

Phew ...

"Come up young lady, I would love to hear you define the qualities a girl looks forward in her man."

It was Clare whom he called for. She smiled and was confident enough.

"Well sir, according to me the most important thing that matters is the posture of a guy, I mean the way he walks, talks hence enhances his personality."

"Ok.. so lets test the walking style here itself!" He said excitedly.

"You ... " He said pointing at David." Why don't you walk and show us?"

As expected he was happy and why wouldn't he . After all Clare was right there and what best opportunity would he be given to impress her. Clare on the other hand was really excited.

"Yes sir, sure!" Said David.

When he was done walking, Sir had asked Clare to score him. I had expected her to give him full but she didn't and explained that he had his shoulders down which resembled more of a monkey. As she said so David laughed and came back to his seat. I couldn't stop laughing and happened to looked back at him , he was a bit shy... As I was pinning up my hair I looked at him and told him that it's ok and then he smiled.

"Ok, so you wanna try?"

I heard Sir say while he looked at me. I had no idea what was he talking about as I was busy consoling David.

"So you wanna show our guys how to walk? Ok come here..!!!

Wait what on earth was happening. When did I say I wanted walk and show? What's happening? Then Carol told me that he was asking if anyone else wants to show and you happened to raise your hand.

"Sir, i'm afraid you are mistaken, I was just pinning my hair up." I said being tensed

"That's ok, still let's see", He said.

Does he get it that I was refusing or did he became deaf for a second. How on earth can I do so. I chucked it and got up and walked. But obvious like a girl. How can he accept me to walk like a guy I said to myself?

That moment was the most embarrassing moment ever. I hated being present there. I frowned. More over 'he' was there too.

"It's ok" I heard David. "It happens ..." He said while he laughed.

"Hahahha!!! yea, " I said

"Looks like we were the chosen clowns today"

"Yes ... Indeed we were" And we laughed hard.

That might have been the most embarrassing day, but all I care about was at least it wasn't worse. All that ends well is great and that's what should be counted.

So Carol and David did talk. Was it a great start?
