I am someone who always is fascinated to talk to strangers and get to know them. I saw him in one of my friend's profile picture and was attracted to him, and my friend was very sweet to give me his number the moment I enquired about him lol! (thanks dude :P)
He was working night shifts and I was in my college 2nd year when we first started talking. I remember waiting for him till 1am or 2 am sometimes to reply. I did not have expectations nor did I have any intentions, I was just interested to know this person and that's all was there in my mind at that point of time. Of course he was one matured handsome fellow whom I was secretly admiring :)
It was really challenging for me to bring out anything from him, say even to know which color he liked I had to keep asking him for days.
It was fun to be honest because I was putting so much effort for someone for the first time in my life. I have been with people who does easily talk to me about anything and everything and I was very much used to it. This was maybe one of the reason that made him stand out.
After months of texting and phone calls I finally got the "jar open" haha..
I knew he was still hesitant and was much more than what he decided to show to me. I wanted to explore, I wanted to know him more, I could have given up but I did not.
Some weeks later we decided to meet for the first time by the evening.
He came nearby to my place to pick me up and I drove back from my college straight with my friend and saw him on the road standing for me.
I had a adrenaline rush at that moment, I blushed, shouted in my friend's ear, βthat's him, that's himβ, then approached him.
He was there with these sparky eyes and bushy hair, honestly I couldn't take my eyes off.
He greeted me with a smile and gave me my most favorite chocolate.
We did not decide on the place to go, but he gave a ride to ECR a place far from the city and stopped at subway to grab a bite. There are these lines in Tamil song (translated: you touched me as the raindrops once, did you know that dear ?) which popped up in my mind when his elbow stroked my hand. On our way back, we listened to his favorite song, and I realized how much I trust this guy to have come with him so far on our very first meeting. With madras evening breeze blowing through my hair the magic happened!!
