Reading a romantic novel (on the same genre of Mills and Boons) after a long long time re-ignited in me the thoughts of writing a similar piece. Not the sex part. Just the romantic part. Sweet sweet. Cozy cozy. Cute, charming, touchy-feely and what not!
So here are the few excerpts that I can think now:
Today, she is going out with another person to the same place that they both had met for the first time. And second time too. Same shopping mall. She wants to eat at the same place. Of course, not dinner! That was too special with him. She cannot afford that moment again with any other person. CCD one is alright. At least, she is going to sit across this person. Not beside him. Not so close as to make the memories come back too strong to haunt her.
And her thoughts go wayward, “Is that going to be a too strong connection with him, too strong a reaction within myself? Back again? Am I going to re-live all those moments? Look at those with a new eye after knowing how he had felt actually about me that time since that time, I was totally unaware, absolutely naïve of everything and clueless of what our meeting is going to develop into! Gosh, what have I gotten myself into, thinking about him like 24*7. And that includes dreams too.”
And just when she is thinking about him, an electric current jolted through her. Her nipples showed out of her t-shirt. Too much. Such vulgarity. Such promiscuousness. In a public place. Especially, in office. Ufff. And it took so much effort from her end to make that look normal. Damn it! And as like strong telepathy or strong love (that’s what he calls whenever she uses the word telepathy), he just called to wish her good morning like every day. Oh, life can be so soooo romantic. And she thought, “What will I not do to get him? To make him all fine. To just cross all the lines.”
And she just remembered an old talk between both of them when they were just starting to know each other and she was asking him to get her job in his company:
“I don’t want to work in this company. You are my senior naa and my friend too. Can’t you get a job for me in your company?”
“My company is not that good to work in.”
“It’s ok. I will have you for the company so that we can talk as much as we want, anyway we talk for hours on phone. And you can talk about all her.”
“If you will be with me so much, my focus will shift from the girl I love to you.”
She did not get into his company. But yes, the focus had truly shifted!
