As I stepped into late teens, life took a steep turn and I
found soaring alterations in me. A sober and silent guy suddenly becomes
conscious of his looks, checks his hairstyle in mirror more than a dozen times in a day and hums on the musical tunes of song…so there was imperative change…friends
were amused…par abhi Mom ki nazar se bachcha hua tha.

I brooded over my change and found that I was driven by a
shadow of a girl who was following me (I wasn’t sure.). She used to stay in the
house near me and at times, I found her standing in the balcony & staring
at me but the moment, I turned towards her, she hid behind the windows but her
shadow confirmed her existence and unconsciously my heart had started following
her.

Now…I could record the beats of my heart thumping in my rib
cage whenever I saw towards her house and my thoughts revolved around her. I
knew nothing about her…she was a girl…that’s all.

My birthday was nearing and every year, I celebrated with my
friends at my house and Mom used to cook delicious foods of my choice. Idea
stung me to invite her for the party and as a neighbour, I can invite her personally.

“We are.” She said n giggled.
“Today evening, be at my place at 7 pm.” I babbled.
“What’s the occasion?” She asked.
“Surprise for you, trust me….” I said in a relaxed mood.
“Surprise for Me…I can’t believe it. Do you know me by name?”
She asked cutely.

“A rose is a rose, whatever name you call by. May I have honor to know your name please?”
“Pari…ok see you.” She said and slammed the door on my face.
I smiled & returned back to my place.

my ears and her cute smile & demeanor stole my heart in first face to face
meeting and I was waiting for the beautiful evening when my perfect lady will
arrive with grace to greet me Happy Birthday.
