A Thing Or Two About Love!

"He was chasing her hastily, coz she was wanting to fly away!
To the horizons she could touch, coz she knew him to be her all the way!"

A few months ago when they met, she din't even know this thing called love. All her knowledge was based on the things she saw and read. To have felt that feeling, umm, she thought she was not that lucky. A regular girl that she was; work, friends and home was her daily frolic. She dared less but thought more. She spoke less but yearned more. She did less but dreamt more.

On the other hands was him, a stud who enjoyed his life partying with friends. "Studies, oh what was that?" kinda attitude. And a unique equation of his style and girls going crazy. Yeah he had his share of relations and out of them still beaming.

Where did they meet? Via a crazy girlfriend whom they both shared. Crazy for him and her antiques made her look to her as well. A deliberate attempt to grope this guy at a restaurant where she had stalked him to be where our guy and girl first met or should I say stared. Stared coz she couldn't find a reason to be crazy for him and he wondered what brings this shy girl with this nutcase.

"Hey Hi, Sid here!"

"Hi, Piyali!"

The brief talk they had was this brief.

There was something strikingly different about this talk. He wanted to know more of her. She was way too simple but completely different from others he met. He researched her on all possible avenues. Played along this crazy friend. And finally invited her to meet.

"I don't know if it was really right to call you for a coffee, but now that you are here, I think we can have one."

"It interested me more as to why a guy like you who possibly can get any hot girl even talk to me especially when I din't even talk to you then."

"Probably that's what enticed me more."

She chuckled. And started a whole conversation. He observed her smile, her beautiful eyes. The way she giggled, the way she strolled. She was different. For her clothes din't matter, nor did make up. She was happy with herself and her eyes spoke for her.

Unlike others he became friends with her. Unlike others he really wanted to know her more. The very first meet he knew he wanted to meet her more and deep down knowing not to hurt her either. Her eyes and her talks made an impact. They were special.

She din't gauge the feelings. She din't think much. For her it was a regular meet and he was another meet up. But yes she agreed for going out twice, coz the way he is to others was not where his heart lies. He was something else for people cannot find.

Through the days they saw each other a lot. Knowing better each other every time was their favorite timepass. Ditching others their favorite job. Knowingly or unknowingly, they stroke a chord, finetuned a relation which was distinctly apart. He knew he wanted to care; protect n look after like she is his doll. She knew she was safe, finding peace in his company. They just spent a zillion worth times.

"It was destined,
They were meant to find!
An account they wrote,
Meant something more than love kind!

They din't say nor did they claim,
The feelings they had, they just came!
On the day she knew, he was only hers,
They held hands, and proclaimed!"
