Two posts before this one I made a resolution to have a real girlfriend by the end of this vaccation.well i think i have been succesful so this post is actually a summary of how i met my lady.
Well the story starts at the end of our great project.We had planned a visit to Gangtok on our way home.Me and jitu wud be staying at my pishi's home at siliguri.We spent the night there and left for gangtok the next morning.We stayed at gangtok for two nights.Then we returned to siliguri and the next morning we went to my mama's new house at siliguri itself.It was here that my love life took the u-turn.
On reaching there my little sister(cousin) informed me that there was a damsel in neighbouring house and I should try my luck on her.She called the girl to their home and she came.I was blown off at the very first sight of her.She walked gracefully and sat on a vacant chair near me.We both hesitated talking first,but gradually with a bit of help from jitu the engines started and my race began.That very moment I was firmly determined to leave no stone unturned to wooo her.We talked for about an hour and i think she liked talking to me.We were on the terrace then.But suddenly her mother came over their terrace and stared at her talking to 'stranger'.She was frightened and left immediately.I and jitu also came down soon after and i was completely lost in her thoughts.She was in their drawing room and could be seen from where i was.But i dint see as i thought it to be inappropriate.But i dont know what made jitu peep his face out of the purdah only to find her mother looking straight at him.Immediate response---she slammed all the windows.I was upset as it left a bad impression on her mother.In the evening i asked my cousin if she could help bring her out that evening so that we could talk.She tried but failed.however she did give me assurance that she will try her best the next day.
Soon after we left mama's house and went to watch Kambakht Ishq.The movie was totally dumb and also my mind only thought of what was to happen the next day.I had my first non-exam oriented sleepless night. The next morning greeted me with a confirmatory msg---she would be coming at COSMOS megamall at around 12.30pm.I jumped on hearing this.This was my first unofficial date.I went to market and bought a new pair of sneakers,my clothes were dirty so I took one of jitu's t-shirt.I then picked up my sister and reached the spot at 12.20.
12.30-12.45-1.00-1.30--there was no sign of her.Finally at around 1.45 she came(with her sister).I dint know what to do after that--i was alone.My childlike mind pointed to the Gamestation and there we went.She played basket ball.I was thumping just to watch her soft hands throwing the balls.We did occasionally touch each other and it felt great.Then we went to the bowling arena and bought a game.Jitu had come by the and enjoyed the most of it while i was just walking in dreamland.He helped me get more time with her alone by keeping her sister and my cousin busy.
We then roamed around from one shop to another,she was searching for a t-shirt.It felt unearthly on spending such time with a pretty girl and her 'nakhras'.Finally after 2 hours of searching she did find one at Pantaloons.I took the t-shirt and paid the bill.It was then she demanded why i paid the bill.I replied it was a gift.She asked who I was to gift her.I felt caught too fast.I gathered all my guts and said ' do i have to say in words '.She said 'yes '.I said 'it might be too early to say but i want u to be mine.I dont think i have to propose--i think we will fall in love in days to come.What do you say?'. She hesitated,i thought my dumb proposal had failed me.But then i heard a whispering sound-but it was loud and clear---"YES". We could see the joy in each others eyes.
It was JULY 6th,2009.I had my first(and if all goes well my last and only) girlfriend.We talked a bit about our families.Sorry i forgot to say she is a Marwari and me Bengali.We the parted away separately.I called her at night and asked if i could say 'I love u' to her.She said " BUDDHU(thats what she calls me by now) I have given u that much right."I said the three words 'I love u' the first time that night on phone. The next day also I went to my mama's home and met her there. I put my arms around her -my first time.I left home the next day.I am in love--
