gal’s Dusty blog *
Here comes my maiden short story. Call it cheesy or
whatever, Kindly bear with me till the end of the post because I’m making my
debut in this so called Short Stories Series.
And
now Its STORYYYY Time :
I was getting ready for my second date.
After a week’s konjals and kenjals, Nidhu finally said YES for a movie. By the
way I’m Shridar and Nidharsana is my one and only girl
friend literally and that too from CS, thanks to my mechanical department.
A
li’l flashback :
*Rewind
Rewind Rewind back to July 2011*
Nidhu and I were just friends initially, met through
a common friend. After exchanging phone numbers we became best friends
with all those talking for hours and this phenomenon continued for long.
And one fine day after 9 months of her ‘BEST FRIENDS’ship and my ONE SIDE LOVE
suffering, I couldn’t contain myself and blurted out “Nidhu, I’m in love with you”.
She didn’t turn pink or blush as I had
expected. Instead she said “Yo’ll get a
really nyce gal shri, definitely not me”. I was disappointed but I’m not
the kind to give up. Even after my serial-proposals for more than 4 months, She
kept singing the same old raga “Yo deserv
a beta gal shri”.
I knew that she loved me and she is a
timid girl and without doubts, she was hesitant to accept my proposal because
of her family. For us, No Verbal Language was needed to communicate with, or
understand each other’s feelings.
Obviously I had the charms and eventually our
MECH-CS chemistry worked out. Our official commitment happened after one year
and now here we are, gearing up for our second movie date.
Back
to the D-Day :
With a little bit of Fair n Handsome and
an extra dose of AXE effect, my MALE MAKEUP SESSION was over and I was ready
for action. I had booked tickets for a morning show, as it was apt for her
GOING-TO-VARSHA’S-HOME-TO-COPY-NOTES excuse to her strict mom.
I reached
the destination earlier and was waiting for her. After 20 minutes of mobile-flipping, 3 packs
of popcorn-munching, sight-seeing, seconds-counting she came.
<<Here,
Kindly don’t imagine a slow motion scene with an Amala Paul like figure
coming>>
She’s just an ordinary girl who is MY Amala Paul. She always has an aura of
HURRY-BURRY-AT-THE LAST-MINUTE, so no time for those heroine entry scenes.
“SORRY
Shri, soooooory da, It was this bus, No actually it was me and blah blah
blah....”. I couldn’t hear anything after that because I was deeply engrossed
in sighting her and I could sense the feeling of kissing her cropping up in my
romantic head. I couldn’t help it, after all she was my girlfriend na?? not
just any friend . But it was a damn movie theatre and it was a damn clear
daytime.
“Shridar CONTROL CONTROL, Its just your
second date not honeymoon” I was telling this to myself and with no
further delay we entered the movie hall.
The movie
started and after 3 hours BOOOOOOOOOM !! the movie just ended. Except
exchanging coke and popcorn nothing really happened. Ya L I actually WATCHED the damn movie with my
unconditionally loving yet unromantic GF L
With each second dying, I’s suppressing
my feelings throughout the movie.
<<Usually
do lovers come to movie theatres to watch the movie?!?! I seriously doubt it
>>
During the intermission I asked her “Do
you like the movie?”. She nodded rapidly for more than 5 seconds that her
earrings made dis DING DING DING noise. It was cute. I wanted to kiss her then.
She removed her hair band and stretched it
with her lips to tie her hair again. I
wanted to kiss her then.
She was humming my favourite song loud
enough for me to hear during the walking around in the mall. I wanted to kiss her then.
“Nidhu,
what if someone spots you here with me??” I asked naughtily. She smiled
with a little scariness and shrugged at the same time. I wanted to kiss her then.
She was waiting in the busstop with me and
was cracking her knuckles crazily. I
wanted to kiss her then.
Finally the bus arrived and the very thing
I had most wished for happened. THE BUS
WAS EMPTY :P She was really nervous to sit beside me. Whenever accidentally
our skins came into contact she became
more nervous. She tried hard to maintain a gap between us and I was cursing the
NH like roads in my mind. So Far No Good. <<sigh>>
Also I was not sure if Nidhu was ready for
a kiss or not. What if I returned with a slapped cheek and more to worsen what
if she was not really that comfortable with me, It was just our second date,
miles to go.
Still I couldn’t wrap up her cuteness and
my feelings. Just a peck on the cheek was my intention. I kept glancing at her
from the side and she was actually auditing our movie expenses at the back
of the bus ticket. <<Typical wife material>>
“OK Shridar, this is your last chance, just a
quick little peck on the cheek” and then there she was, “Shri duffer, You paid an extra 50 at the
cash counter” and BAAAAAANG !!, a peck on the cheek turned to a kiss on the
lips and I didn’t let go of her for more than 5 seconds. She came to her senses
and pushed me back. I could see that she was more than a li’l startled.
The last
15 minutes travel seemed like dead slow hell .She avoided looking at me and
left without a bye to add to my embarrassment L. I was
back at home and I banged my head on the wall and pillow with million thoughts
colliding in my mind.
“I shouldn’t have even thought of
kissing her in the first place” L
“What should I do now?” L
“How about establishing any
alternative defense mechanism like it was just an accident Nidhu?”
“Should I go for any sentimental
sequence or turn that into a comedy?”
“Let me call a spade a spade, Yes I
wanted to kiss you, after all you’re my GF and in fact soon-to-be-wife”
“No, Let me make it up to her by
any other means”
I was
typing a message and was deleting the same, again typed a message and sent it
to the drafts and the process continued. Was she really uncomfortable?? What if
she decides to call it a day?? What if she stops talking with me??
She’s the
only girl who matters in my life and I love her so much. Its difficult to put
together what we shared in words. It was really stupid of me. How could I
behave cheaply like that. She’s been my FANTASTIC HER always. My sweet NIDHU L
*BEEP* *BEEP*
*BEEP*
It was a
message from nidhu. “Hey I fagot to ask yo, Hw waz ma new strawberry lipbalm??
:P :P :P”
