Did she accept??

by Aakaash   

"Morning without you is a dwindled dawn", something i've always wondered if true. I never got the opportunity to experiecne love until........

15th of July,the day of love,atleast for me. I rose from bed knowing nothing of what was in store for me that day.

The start was the usual,a cry from my mom, "Move your lazy butt kiddo, you're getting late for school"

With a sluggish start, I got to brushing my teeth which generally, takes about 15-20 mins. Now,I know what you're thinking , "Can't u brush any faster??..." the answer to that, Nooo..

Anyways, once I was done with the lazy act, it was now time for takin' a BATH.. Omg, did I ever mention, I hate baths, i really do. Am not a bath person but hey, I don't want people around me going "What's that smell now??..'

So yea, lazy act Part 2 commenced and ended in a monotonous tone. I then had my breakfast, IDLY and left in a hurry.

Ok, now, I may not be a bath person but lol, I am a BIKE person. I love bikes and everything related to one.

People around me go nuts just tryin' to reason why cars are much superior, coz they aren't, really, trust me.

Am serious, Bikes are a lot better, they Rule.. You know what,i can do this all day long so, moving along...

I had left in a hurry.

Dad got me my own bike when i was 16 and well, now that am 17 and a legal driver, I was free like a bird.

I was off to school as it was my first day of 12th std. I had entered the class and gues what, None of my friends were present. i began to look for them. Amidst all the searching, my eyes caught hold of an angel.

Now, i know what you're thinkin',"Here we go, usual romance and stuff" but No, u guys are wrong.

You see, it's not like Omg, Love at first sight and stuff. This was different. This felt new, electrifying. Nothing like i've seen on screens or read in books or anytin. This was strong feelings, NOT LOVE but emotions at play.

She was right there, in the first bench, smiling. Her eyes, her lips, her neck, WOW!!!

Everything had just slowed down, for just her. It was like i was in this whole new different realm.

I want to go by every detail. Let's start with her eyes shall we?

Her eyes, what shall i say, little Drops of heaven, am serious. Very attractive. Though small, felt like a blackhole that was meant for me and me alone. It sucked every thought I had and finally, ME!! But there was more to it, there was sadness, there was pain, there was despair. I did'nt know anything about her so, i couldn't just act upon. Anyways, her eyes began talking to me, introducing herself. I literally could almost communicate.

Moving on to her lips, again, am left speechless. As soon as her cheek muscles began to spread wide, i knew there was something for me to look forward to and i did. Her bright, shinny, dazzling, sly smile was a stand out I tell you. Never before and never again, a once in a life time opportunity, for me I suppose.

It felt like as if she had reached down my chest, literally, pulled my heart out, carved her name and put it back and just like that, LEFT!!!

That day, as I drove back home, all I could think about was , HOW in God's name am I gonna propose..!!

This went on for weeks, but I knew that someday I had to end all of this and put myself out there.

I decided to do the exact.

Aug 15, A day to remember for a distinct reason. I had asked her to wait for me after school as I drove home, freshened up and drove right back. As I entered the street, i saw this distant figure, slightly blurred as the wind blew strongly past my eyes and ears.

I knew right away it was her and that, it was TIME!!! I parked right next to her, got down, got close to her.

With a heavy heart, I said"Gal, i've never felt like this strongly about anyone and infact, I don' wanna. Let my feelings stay this strong for u and u alone, forever. I know i have fallen for u, i would'nt call it love right away but I deffenitely have feelings for you, that am sure. I don't wanna be the guy who confessess and bluntly asks for a reply. Infact, I don't wanna reply coz u see, technically, I never proposed. All am saying is that, I know my time's now and i wanna make it count by becoming a part of u cz u see, There is no US without U" and boy did I leave with authority, but I knew for sure that she wouldn't accept.

I never looked back from then on.Though she never gave me an answer, I kinda wanted one but never asked.

She never stopped talking to me. Things seemed normal. We never brought up that topic.

Everynight I would ask myself the same question, over n over again. Will she accept??

4 Months later, Here I am, at a Movie theatre, with HER. Out first movie as ONE, as US.

So, what do you think guys, Did she accept my proposal????
