My heart, I could feel still thumping, faster than usual. It was a short, light, sweet kiss, but its effect almost had me light headed, and her smile was probably a good sign, for somewhere deep within I was scared to offend her and, lose this great a companion.
XXXXXXX
She sat there smiling, on my home made rug, as we watched the stars, just like she'd wanted to.
Now as I looked at her, I realised that she had this aura about herself, the radiant, bubbly and fiery self of hers never failing to surprise me.
"What are you looking at comrade?" she said, catching me observe her.
I tried to play it down, but her scrunching her nose trying to copy babushkas expression and tone as she said, "What was it Dimka?", had me laughing in no time.
It was rare, these moments, where I could just be me, a normal young guy, unburdened, carefree and lost in the moment.
It felt good to be with her, I'd now, known her for four months and little did she know I was smitten.
'But I want her to know.' The voice prompted from within.
This time when I looked around, it was her, who was observing me, unashamed, unwavering her gaze, she held mine, and I leaned in to let her know, what I had in mind.
It was between these short moments, that she questioned, "What are you doing?"
"The most selfish thing I could probably do to you."
OOOOOO
Inspired from the Korean drama I am watching now. Any guesses?
