5th of May 2005 started off as just another day, but i knew that i had to do something today which i had never done before in my life; ask for a girl's phone number. My only agenda for the day was to get your phone number and ensure that for the next couple of months, when the college was closed, i could at-least talk to you if not see you.
We finally met, had a conversation and then the time came for me to make my move; however, things did not turn out to be the way i had planned.. Although you took my phone number after a lot of persuasion from my side, the fact that you wrote it down on your palm made me really concerned. I somehow made myself believe that this was done because you were not able to come up with another excuse, and that you had no intentions of calling me.
It was there and then that i was convinced about two things; one, that my attempt had failed and two, that i had ruined my chances of befriending you. I was getting ready to head back home, but as fate would have it, i was made to wait in the campus for a few more minutes. Looking back now, i think that this was the only time in my life that fate or luck had played a part in. What i did during my extended stay in the campus was something i never knew i had the courage to do.
I Love You. These three magic words popped out of my mouth and probably surprised you as much as they did me. You were quite calm about the whole situation and showed no signs of discomfort, anger or surprise (which i find hard to believe, now that i have known you for almost 5 years). Irrespective of the fact that i had made a blunder by expressing my feelings to you, something about your reaction convinced me that you were going to call me in a few days. I was right, but i had no idea then that your one call would make my life miserable for the next 100+ days.
