That Night, That Dinner and Those Roses!

After several months of knowing her, I felt it was time to say it and move forward from being just that friend. I was also getting bothered, its a competitive world out there - There was this other guy whom she called 'Shah Jahan' who would want to look important around her :), and that fellow who was the son of this major hospital chain in India. Seriously, girls have  a lot of fun in life I say! 

And there are the friends of the girl around who are having the most fun with all this, you got to be nice to them, they are the influencers of decisions. They were angels in my case.

Then one day, I had to attend a dinner at her home! Till then I only ate her food at the office from the box that she packed, now it was was to be at home. I had a great time. I went to dinner with this big bouquet of roses, sprayed with Armani,  but left it behind in the car :). 

Had dinner, said the good bye, sat in the car and called her back. She came down.. it must have been around 11:00 PM or so, the moon looked brighter or was it she I did not know. I walked across the street with the roses in my hand and said those words..smiled... and left!

This is what I wrote when I got back home:


In thoughts of you my heart breathes
          Waiting for a sign from you
Struggling in your thoughts my heart smiles
          Making pictures of you.

The times I spent with you were so few
          But each time I see you, my heart feels anew
Your presence pleasant as the morning dew
          My Love, I wish my heart you knew

Know me my Love …

          And know my Love…

Her response the next day was, 'wasn't that a bit too early, I knew it would come but not so fast'... I drove back home that evening and somehow the radio jockey seems to know how I felt.. the track went .. 'some broken hearts never mend, some mavericks never end! Some tears will never dry, my love for you will never die!' 

.. a few months from then I got the option to go to the UK, to study.. I took it!

  1. Too early didn't necessarily mean negatory did it?
