An Ode To My Aphrodite

The Confession

"I liked you"--

And this accelerated my heart rate. Somhow mixed with happiness, joy and nostalgia at the same time, I gave a smile but didn't extend it as the tense in that sentence was still against me. But really, I felt like my heart said it wasn't meant to be in that tense. Perhaps she's shy to say directly. Still, we both gave space to each other, me to express and she to explore. Perhaps she got mine as I did her's too.

" Accha......When ?"--
"Seven years ago"--
"Oh, very nice"--

I wanted to make it short as always which was my worst habit but I didn't know, what to do. Suddenly she asked

"What's nice ?"--
"It's nice that you confessed it which many people fail"--
"Hmm.....Perhaps"--

I sensed that things are going to be fishy now and even if it doesn't, then I'll try to make it. After waiting, I saw it was going against my thinking, so finally asked

"Why didn't you tell me then ?"---
"I don't know but I loved you really"---
"Aha.....thanks"

After a brief wait of few mins perhaps, she said,

"What if I propose you now ?"

Believe me, I was thinking like how can I get something so easily what I want ? How can something go so straight-forward as I want it to be ? And moreover, you might wonder why I wanted her back right ? Well I knew that she liked me then, but at that time, everything went so wrong that neither me nor she got chance to interact and express each other. We both waited for an ideal hour, an ideal day and an ideal moment to uncover ourselves. She preferred a peaceful night, both to construct and burn the castle of my dreams just like what I feared.

"I'll take time"---

That's what I could only say for now because when everything goes according to one's wish, that time he falls in another type of discrepancy and dilemma that even believing what's happening becomes difficult.

She said, "Accha..... But why ?"

And answering that was the most difficult thing I faced that day.
The next message asked,

"Is there anyone else ?"---
