Do You Believe in Love at First Sight Do You Believe in Love at First Sight ?
“Do you believe in love at first sight ? Or .. um .. should I walk by again ? “ Blush .. Blush .. Well , Ladies and gentlemen ! Honestly , even If I keep walking past you in ‘circles’ , you won’t fall in “love” with me . Yes , you might have a crush on me , my presence may cause a powerful infatuation , but it would not , my friends , be love … To all those who immediately got those contradicting thoughts in their minds , Ladies and Gentlemen ! I speak … of experience . . . 22nd October 2010 “Omg ! Omg ! Omg ! Did you See him ?? ” “Umm .. Who? ” “That guy!!
The one with the deep black eyes ??!! ” “Uh well Fatima , most boys here have ‘black’ eyes .. And secondly , we’re here for academic purposes .. not for mating ! ” “I know , But .. but … Omg ! He’s so .. so hawwtt ! I mean , so attractive .. so beautiful .. He’s , he’s like a dream come alive , incredible …” “Woaaahh ! Wait , wait a minute ! Who is this guy ? ” “The one , the one that just passed by us !! ” “Umm … ? ” “The one with the light spikes… ? “ “ ??? Ughh , I dunno .. well common Fatima , I think we should get back to work …’ “But .. … … … ”
Three days Later “Fatima !! FATIMA ! WHAT . IS . THE . CHEMICAL FORMUALE OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE ??!! “ “…………Oh , Yes sir ? … Sorry sir … I dunno …. “ “Out Of the Class !! ” Later that day “Fatima , you were Actually day dreaming in the “Chemistry class “ ??! What were you thinking !? ” “Umm .. you know , about Arham “ “Arhum ? Who Arhum ? ” “The .. the guy , the one I told you about the other day … ’ “What ?! You were actually serious about him ? You don’t even know him ! And .. How do you know his name ? ” “Yes ofcourse I was serious ! You don’t know .. e’s the one I’ve been waiting for .. My soullmate … I know , God created us a pair .. I .. I just know . And Pluss , I spent 5 hours on facebook searching and finally I found him !! I’ll send you the link !! ” “Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?! Well , I think that’s stupidiy .. I mean .. I dunno … Anyways , did you send him a friend request ? ” “No, I didn’t …. Boys ask out girls first . ” “But he doesn’t even know you !!! ” “He does ! I’m sure we’re bonded . he’ll come to me one day . ” “So what are you gonna do till then … Day dream ? Listen to slow romantic songs?
Smile in solitude like a freak? Or .. ” “Enoughh! !! That’s it ! Lets go now .. “ It continued like that … Arham played in my mind like a symphony . I felt my heart beat like “ Arham … Arhum … Arhum … Until , two weeks later , my friend told me : “Fatima ! Did you see Arhum’s display picture on facebook ? : “Omg ! No I didn’t , we were out yesterday ! “ “You know what ? He was holding hands with this girl and there was an edited heart over it” “What … ? … … .. She must be his cousin … I know .. he’s not like that “ “Cummon Fatima ! Use your senses ! ” “No!
You know when I looked at him … O could see the purity , the decency in him .. He’s a good boy “ “Well .!! You’re Impossible … ! ” With the passage of time and my , I guiltily say “ desperate” condition , I came to know many facts about Arhum … among which some of the slightly bad ones were that .. he smokes , he was once suspended for two days , umm … he got just four D’s in his mocks and .. well , I had thought of censoring that one , but he’s the only , proud record holder of changing Seven genuine , pretty girlfriends in just grade ten .! At first , I defended his acts at my best .However it was only a matter of time before I came familiar to the devilish character underneath that sweet , angelic face . On the upcoming school gathering , miraculously , I locked eyes with Arhum the second time in my life … who was enjoying the company of yet , another girl . I felt hatred run through my body … Those eyes .. the ones which once struck me blind now appeared to be the eyes of the Satan itself . His spikes , well now he looked as if he had suffered an electric shock . In my mind , I cursed him in “Four” different languages .
So what became of the love I felt , eh? The la la la melody which made me dance in front of my mirror .. Well , you know what guys ? The feeling went as quickly as it had come .. The “love” we call is more like a seasonal virus , or should I say more like dengue . This is where I say , I do not believe in love at first sight ! So , for God’s sake , please do not fall for those falling pants , and yeah , those mascara and kajal clad eyes . It was my responsibility to warn you and now that I have , thankyou and goodbye . Well , now excuseme ladies and ‘not so gentle’men .! (:
