Trust me this is a pure fiction
She sat there, sipping coffee from her beautiful rosy lips. I had never seen her like this before. There was a certain melancholy to her beauty. She was probably the prettiest girl I had ever laid eyes upon, and definitely the smartest. Her personality dwarfed mine. She was a traveller, a reader, a thinker. I had never talked to her, yet I knew she was the one who would complete me. She was the missing piece of me as a puzzle.
Today, I gathered the courage to go and talk to her....
Me: Hey, I am Atul and I think you are very beautiful, what’s your name?
Girl: Seriously, do you think it is going to work?
Me: Well, when I began thinking about how to strike a potential conversation with you nearly 25 minutes ago while sitting right there and consistently staring at you. But I couldn’t come up with any good alternative since everytime I tried to focus, my attention used to get deviated by your heavenly face which certainly has a hypnotic capacity, and I was wondering if you work for cops, and your lips which I presumed were painted with expensive rosy lipstick but upon close inspection I can see that they are naturally pink, and hence despite my numerous attempts I couldn’t come up with any better way to approach, as my focus betrayed me each time, although I don’t blame them. Hence, finally I thought to stick to the old style which I am sure is indecorous for a lady like you but then I am not entirely to be blamed.
So let me try this again- hey what’s your name?
Girl: Well, that was a great flattering monologue but,
I already have a boyfriend. So I think you should better ditch it here.
Me: First, that was not flattering and second, I have not even started. But just so I can clear, can I quickly talk to you for 30 seconds.(pulls the chair and sits)
Girl: (frowning) That is indecorous. I am waiting for my boyfriend here. But anyway, why should I let you?
Me: Ofcourse you should. Because that's the only way I could explain the lady why she would regret the rest of her life for not letting this cool, mediocre guy to have a word with her, when she had the chance.
Girl: Well, I regret trusting my cool Dog- Bruno, with my tall, dark granddad.
He died...... my dog.
Me: Well, every good thing has to go, to make way for next best thing.
Girl: Whoa! whose line was that?
Me: Depends
Girl: on what?
Me: Did you like it?
Girl:(mild laugh).
Pause for a while
Girl: So who you are....
Me: words would not be enough to describe who i am but i will still try. well i am a wanderer in search of life, a poet in search of rhymes, a writer in search of words, a conjurer in search of magic, a child in search of innocence, a whisper in search of voice, a human in search of love, a person in search of myself.
Girl: hell yeah. this was impressive.. (chuckles), what do you do apart from being Casanova in a coffee shop.
Me: Well, I am an NITian presently pursuing my engineering in Electronics and Communication Engineering in NIT Silchar and a astrologer for you
Girl: Thats nice and whats the logic of astrologer for me!!!
Me: Only for you :)
Girl: Is it? Tell me what stored in my future.
Me: Well, I can see that you are going to enjoy this strong cappuccino with me and by the time you finish it you are going to say yes to my proposal to join me for the dinner tonight at ......
Girl: (cuts in) Well, I must say that you are a very bad astrologer, Mr NITian
Me: That was a very quick derogative assumption but I must prove my worth by telling the name of your boyfriend.
Girl: I don’t have a boyfriend
Me: (Winks)
That’s what I had badly, and desperately hoped
******Small pause******
Girl: (mildly laughing) Are you really flirting with me?
Me:(Calmly) That would be a disgrace. Wouldn’t it?
Girl: Disgrace?
Me:(gradually speaks) I mean, yeah, you are the kind of women a man can look at, cherish and love his entire life without tiring. And flirting shouldn’t be capable enough to get you.
I am just trying to set the conversation in motion.
(Girl blushes)
By the way, what are you doing here?
Girl: Well, I just come here often to occasionally meet with fine astrologers and despo engineers like you... (chuckles)
Me: (Sharp look into her eyes) Fine? Are you flirting with me?
Well, did any of those astrologers tell whom are you going to have dinner with tonight?
Girl: No, I..... don’t...... think so.
Me: Well, I do. I know exactly where exactly you are going tonight?
Girl: Really? And where is that?
Me: Your favorite, but you missed to ask the right question, which is, with whom are you going?
Girl: Oh! That was predictable..........
Me: So is that a yes?
Girl: Well, how good are you?
Me: Depends
Girl: On what?
Me: When and how badly you want me to be good at? I like to reveal my cards gradually and graciously.
(Girl blushes again)
So, may I know your name now?
Sigh.......Smile
Rose it is :)
