Once upon a time (well..actually now!), there was a boy and
a girl. Yes, yes we all know where this is heading. The boy started liking the
girl (I know, clichéd!) or wait...is it the other way round?! It was the girl
that started liking the boy..., it hardly matters anyway. For days they teased
and played around what was obviously becoming more than just friendship. Oh,
and the constant teasing of their friends and their insistence on being ‘just
friends’, just made it so not obvious! Pretty soon, texts were exchanged, and
so were furtive glances. Innocently chatted texts extended late into the night,
leaving both the concerned parties bleary eyed, but filled with excitement and
anticipation of another night yet to come. And so on and so forth...you know
the usual! Well, simply in the interest of the vast patience of the audience, I
shall put forth the unexpected climax to the little story (not!).
One fine day, the boy woke up with eyes that shone of love
never ending, a fist of determination in his heart, a crazy light in his eye
and of course his heart in his throat...uhh...I mean his heart in his hands and
lifted his phone. And the proposal followed. Unexpected right?! On the other
end of this signal that transferred from the phone we have the girl, who
promptly opened the text. This action was followed by a lot of excited squeals,
giggles from somehow more than one girl?!! A quick emergency discussion, a lot
of shushing and whispering later, four girls sat down to type...’Yes’.
And now...? Oh they are living a life of bliss, or so I've
been told. We unfortunately, live in a place where talking late into the night
over the phone is considered dating. Meeting face to face? Oh that’s just
so....overrated! God forbid they meet! Horrors!!
What would they say to each other?! But of course talking over the phone is way
easier.
And then my friends, they lived happily ever after (well
presently they are, that is until their parents find out or ahem...other such
forces of nature!).

*The story was written on the request of a friend. Well, the
friend actually asked me to write a love story but I find myself incapable of
writing about love without being cynical or sarcastic. So, dear audience (or
the lack thereof!) and friend, you will have to make do with this. Cheers!
Also, it behooves me to mention that yes... I broke my New
Year resolution of writing my blog at least two times a week on the very first
week of this year. Part of it was my fault, while the other part I honestly do
blame my hectic schedule and some personal issues for that. Anyhow, it’s
another one of my lessons learnt! Prioritize and manage! I can’t
completely not take the blame either (Confusing sentence right!). Anyhow, hope springs eternal, so I shall persevere
in my endurance to stick to my already broken new year’s resolution.
Having said that, it's the season of love everyone. For all those couples out there, have the best time of your life you all! And if you are single like me, well folks, there's always next year! I'm kidding! We need single people in this world, or imagine how boring it would be. You guys rock!
Cheerio!
