"Today, is going to be a little debatable and also, the one who is going to call me will be chatting with me live and everyone listening to the show will be able to hear us. An uncut and stripped version. Also you don't mention your name of course." She laughs. I laugh softly too as I sip on my tea while in my balcony as she speaks through my earphone.

"Ready for the Special Saturday Late Night Talk?" She says in a very suspicious tone and I mumble a yes. I stare at the dark 12 O' Clock night sky that has a star or two peeking out the violet clouds.

"Do you believe in love at first sight?"

And everything went silent.

She gets so deep sometimes that I can't help but smile at how her thoughts run. Because the way she talks and the different things she talks about makes me just have her always on my mind, trying to figure out if her mind ever stays calm. Does she always keep thinking about all this? Does she always want to know answers to every secret of life? Is she always in a trance?

"Think over a song and then call me up to say what you think."

Love at first sight.

I've never experienced it and I don't even know whether it's healthy for someone to fall so hard and so deep for someone just at once. I mean, it's not possibly literal, is it? It has to be some metaphor or just a mere exaggeration. Because it's far too cliché to fall in love for someone immediately after seeing them. But I believe the answer is infatuation. The proverb is actually an exaggeration.

"You know what Paige," I start and she giggles.

"Great I know who this is. Please continue," she says politely.

"I think, that you can definitely be infatuated by someone the first time you see them." I state honestly and she hums along, asking me to continue.

"Then you can fall in love with them. But still it's your choice if you want to hold onto them."

"I am quite content with your answer to be honest," she chuckles. "But according to you is it wrong, or maybe even weird, if the person accidentally falls for that person with whom they were infatuated in the first place?"

What even keeps churning in her head is out of this world, really.

"No." I smile slightly as a gust of wind blows past me. "It's not weird in the least Paige. This is the only thing you don't have any limits for in the world since it's not even a worldly desire. You can fall for them, you can swim an ocean for them hell you can even die for them. And all these feelings are gonna come from within you. And just because you haven't seen them yet," my smile suddenly falters at the realisation of my own words and thoughts as my voice ceases down to mere mumbles.

"Doesn't mean you can't fall in love with them."

Paige Anderson will be the death of me.
