He whispered, ' I love you.'
I turned about, unsure of what he had said. 'Did you tell me something?'
He looked down and denied. I didn't pay much of an attention to this, afterall I hadn't heard what he had said. We continued walking into his house.He was Josh, my neighbour, my best friend, my guide and what not. And I am Kiara. We were a never to be parted best buddies. We weren't the romantic pair but a typical best friend one.
One thing that I am revealing is- He was the one I had fallen for so bad that it was practically impossible for me to not think of him. And apparently I had no clue of what he had in store for me. I loved him, a lot. I never wanted him to know about it as I was scared, will he accept, deny or just ignore it? Would he be the same with me after it? Will the bond break?
That day something happened that was to be an answer for all my questions. I was waiting in his room while he had gone to get some crunchers. Our plan was the watch a movie marathon. It was a pleasant summer Sunday and moreover a perfect day to relax. While he was out and boredom was wrapping around me, I decided to log in my facebook- after all I am a teen and its my 'right' to log on Facebook. I switched on his computer. My eyes ran thorough all the icons on the desktop. There was one icon named DIARY. I wondered what it was for a second and the other moment the cursor clicked on it. Wordpad opened and I could see 6 lines written. I thought, who writes only 6 lines in their diary? He is insane.
He being my best friend I didn't really bother about the so called term 'privacy'. I read. And once that I had finished it- tears rolled down by my cheeks that were pink with the natural blush and a wide smile spread up till my eyes. This is what it read-
" I love her, I love her so much. I know her for some 3 years now and a day without talking to her seems incomplete. She makes me feel special without a hard trail. Her presence delights me. She's amazing and a person I'd love to live with forever. I wish I could tell Kiara of what I feel about her and how bad has she made me nuts in her own crazy and lovely way. I love you, Kiara Blaze. You are the one I've desired." Wasn't this enough for anyone to fall for someone? well, I feel again. He loved me, I finally knew it. I must say that I felt the most privileged person at that moment. He loved me, this was enough to make me go bonkers. I wanted to go all like YAAY! I could hear footsteps. Door slammed. He rushed towards me and snatched the mouse from my hand and closed the window. He then turned my chair towards him and said, ' I am sorry okay? This was not intentional! I just happened to develop deep feelings for you. If you don't like it I'll control but please forgive me about it.'
I held his hand, he glared at the tear in my eye, willing to drop down. In a slow tone I said' Shh! I love you. I don't want you to lose on the feelings for me, ever.'
He smiled. It was a smile of relief, joy, happiness and moreover love. He hugged me, tighter than ever. Today, he sitting in the next room, doing work. But, I'm glad that its been 6 years now - we are together. And we love each other the same way, with the same affection and passion. (Inspired from a true story)
