Looking back when we first met, I remember I took her ( lets name her Nikita for this story) to a cheap restaurant nearby my coaching to give her my birthday treat. It was a sunny day with warm breeze hitting against my face as I waited for her outside the restaurant. I was literally sweating and now even my handkerchief was fully drenched in my sweat. I was wearing a T-shirt which was given to me by my brother and a blue jeans. After half an hour, she came on her Scooty Pep wearing a white top with black jeans. We were best friends then but in my heart I was developing feelings for her unknowingly.

Days passed by and I grew more conscious of my feelings. We messaged each other everyday from the time we woke up till we went to bed. I was still afraid and confused about sharing my true feelings with her so I let everything on the hands of time.

Then one day she told me that an old bestiee of her proposed her and she thinks it might be a good idea to say yes to him. Her words hit me like a bullet straight through my heart. Million thoughts passed through my mind in matter of seconds. I felt like crying but I couldn't because I knew it wasn't the end. She still hasn't said yes to him and it was the matter of fate that she consulted me first about it. I thought of hundred ways to get her saying no to him but yet I maintained my calm and spoke politely to her, "Yaar dekh it happens sometimes when we talk to someone a lot like 24x7 and we naturally get attracted to them but it doesn't mean they are the one for us. Think twice before saying yes to him."

Did I said it right? Was it really right thing to do? What about my feelings? and so many other questions came into my mind soon after. I prayed to God almost begged in front of him to make her say no to him. Fortunately, he fulfilled my wish and she said no that bestiee of hers.

Before all this happened I was an addict of smoking and drinking. I developed this soon after death of my very close friend and break up with my ex girlfriend. It was hard for me to handle both shocks and I tried to numb my mind with smoke filled air and a bottle of beer. Then Nikita came into my life like an angel from heaven and freed me from all the addictions.

Coming back to story... after few days I told Nikita my feelings and she acted rather normal than surprised. When I asked her the reason she said, "It always happens with me. First some guy becomes my friend then soon after he proposes me." It took me many days to assure her I wasn't like the guys she had met before. Everyday some way or other I tried to win her trust and by the time October was coming to an end I won her trust.

She was on tour to South India and I was at my home. We were messaging each other when suddenly she said," Ek baat kahu?" and I replied, "Kaho" and then came the moment I was waiting for all along...she said, "I love you."

I literally danced a lot that day. It felt like I had received all the happiness there could be in this world. That day my life changed forever and I become a person I am now (Free of addictions like smoking, drinking, useless parties, much of aware of myself and my health, much more alive) from the person I was before I met her.
