Though i was reluctant as i was getting late and ammi was waiting for me but all my friends insisted and i went there
I ordered my black coffee and was waiting for it to come and just than i saw someone sitting on the table right to mine
She was beautiful, Her long untied hair fell upon her face ,her eyes were like a gust of wind...
Her pretty dimples,her hand moving across her face,and moving her hair behind her left ear unveiling her earring
I could not take my eyes off her.
It was not like i haven't seen someone beautiful than her but she gave a chilling sensation in me...
Starring at her...
she brings the cup of cappuccino to her lips, then she took a sip, she put the cup, her lips covered by the foam cream adorning the cappuccino ...
I was still looking at her...with wide eyes from top to bottom
She lookes at me and gave a weired look...
my staring was making her uneasy so i hesitantly took my eyes off her
I dont know what happened to me that day and actually speaking, it wasn't even like'. As a matter of fact, I have no idea what I felt. I started spending my evenings at that cafe and she always came there ,most of the time she read novels drinking her cappuccino...
I came to the caf with a couple of friends but she always came alone. I have never seen any girl do that. Who has?
We used to glance across each other now and then, but there was nothing more.
The days turned to weeks, and weeks turned to a couple of months. That's a long time and it only happens in movies and i dont know what was happening to me..
I was attracted to this girl o i just admired her...
Could it be love?
No it cant' be.. but why i came to the cafe daily just to see her and the days she dont came there why i felt so bad...
She knew I was glancing at her. She just wasn't bothered? Or she also wanted to talk?
One evening, it rained heavily and asusual I was in the cafe, she walked in with an umbrella. The Cafe was full, and there was one seat that was empty...
That was facing my table.i wanted to get up and call her over, but before I could make up my mind , she walked to a corner table that just got cleared.
An hour later, it was still raining. ...
When I got outside the cafe, I saw her standing ,waiting. I walked up to her quickly, and before I knew it I had asked her if I could drop her to her place. As it was raining, I added.
She smiled, she just looked at me, turned around and walked away in the rain! Under her umbrella...
My friends were laughing seeing me... but one thing that went good that day was that i got to hear her voice for first time and ofcourse her pretty dimples.
She didn't came their the next day and i thought because i am stalking her she has stopped coming their...
Two whole weeks later, I walked into the cafe and there she was...
Gosh, I had missed her! I sat down at a table a few tables away from her. I knew I wanted to talk to her. And thank God, the caf was quite empty. It was a bit too early for coffee addicts to make their entrance.
I waited until her coffee arrived. And then, I collected my courage.
"Hey, you can't run away from me today. You've got to talk to me...
"What?" she said
"I said you can't just avoid me like this, you know..."
"What are you talking about?"
"Can I sit down with you?
I convinced her to talk to me for a few minutes. We started talking, I got to know so much about her, her beautiful and pious name "Zoya"... and I also got to know that she had a great sense of humor.though her shayaries were very funny but i truly adored her...
We had a great time talking to each other, and soon, she said she had to go, as it was getting late for her.
We exchanged numbers and I asked her if we could "bump in" again tomorrow. She just smiled and walked away.
It was the most memorable day of my life"i couldn't sleep the whole night"
"She took the first step... wow she is bold" i said to myself
We spoke and spoke until hours of the morning, and I just wanted to see her again that evening. We met again at the caf and it felt so good. She was smiling the whole time ..
She told me everything about her,how her parents died in an accident,her appi and jiju
She still missed her parents...
Her mother loved reading novels and she was having the same habit...
We started hanging out together all the time after that. At times, I picked her up from her workplace, and at other times, I dropped her back home. Soon, weeks turned into months, and this time, everything felt just like a fairy tale.
Time stood still when it was just the two of us. One evening, when we met up and went to the cafe, it was too crowded for space, so we decided to go for a drive to while away the time.
The sun was shining , it was a huge red ball that made the whole world around me glow. It was the most romantic sight, or maybe I had never noticed the sun at that time of the day.
She said the sun was beautiful. I said it couldn't be compared to her. She smiled. I smiled. And then, we locked eyes.
That was the moment. It was indeed beautiful.
And I wanted the drive to last forever. We got to her place, and I hugged her goodbye. That was the first time I ever hugged her. As we hugged, I didn't wanted to let her go from me and that day i realized "I Am In Love"
The next evening, we went to the caf. We sat next to each other for the first time. And we held hands. We spoke less, and smiled more. I told her that I love her from the time i saw her i was fallen for her...
She smiled a lot more. And then she said that she liked me too.
I shouted to everyone in the cafe and announced that she also loved me...
All present in the cafe started clapping and i was happy i got her "The Love Of my Life and its just because of "The Cafe"...
Now its Been Two Years We are mArried and we still go to "the cafe" every weekend...
Sometimes I think That If That Day I would not have went their
I Shall not Been The Happiest man In The World
One can never tell how love can come into your life, or how you can experience your own short love stories out of the blue. But a great love story awaits all of us, and it's just around the corner. After all, didn't someone once say that life is a surprise
