My Feelings

""I just wanted to say that you make me so unbelievably happy. Although we haven’t been together for a long time, I know that you are the one for me. I knew from the very first moment I met you that I would fall in love with you, hard and fast. And it looks like I did.""

"Mihu"- What you are thinking. 

"Abhi"- Nothing nothing..! It looks like you want to share something with me.

“I’ve been wanting to tell you for a while, though. She said.

I.......". I put my hand over her mouth.

She looks at me in surprise.

I take a deep breath.

“Mihu, I-“

My voice catches in my throat.

She removes my hand from her mouth, leans in a tiny bit closer.

“What is it?” She asks, looking concerned.

Because I can’t seem to form the words, I tell her how I feel the only way I can.

Before I can lose my courage, I lean forward, pressing my lips on hers. After her momentary shock fades, she kisses me back; as her lips move against mine, it’s like there’s a fire in my veins.

Her hands gently cup my face as mine timidly grab her by the waist.

I think, “I can’ t believe this is happening.”

We finally break apart when we’re both completely breathless. She tilts her head, so our foreheads are touching.

“Wow.” She whispers.

I nod in reply.

“Abhi – so, does this mean…” She stammers.

This is the first time I’ve ever seen Mihu at a loss for words. I feel a bit proud of myself.

Finally getting courage, I grab her hands, pulling her to her feet.

“Mihu,” I say.

“Will you be my girlfriend?”
