I am dying to open up.

Dear you know who,

I have been wanting to talk to you for more than a year. I feel sorry that i have not been good with conversations ever in my life.

To begin with, i have had a crush for you ever since our first meeting. Well, i dint develop that out of nothing. I was very much impressed with the way you spoke to me that day.  You didn't initiate the conversation that day and that was the real spark that had me going. I felt you were just like me and i wanted to know more what else we had in common.

And when I received the first text from you, my joy knew no bounds. I badly wanted to strike up a conversation and we did that too. I am not sure if you know this, but i am an extremely introverted person and i found solace in just texting. While a part of me wanted to talk to you in person.

I took to internet and to my friends to find out what i was going through. Everyone advised me on hitting at and some even helped me with flirty one liners. I don't know why but i thought it was good to keep my distance.. I was happy with what i was good at. I was happy with occasional texting while there were butterflies in my stomach.

I meant that literally, yes, i have kept a separate tune for your messages and whenever the nusic starts, my stomach would churn. I felt that we had a lot in common and I was fascinated by the fact that my desire of being with some one who share my train of thoughts' were coming true.


Reality took its own to hit me, when you called me your brother.  " what have i gotten myself into " . It was then I decided to open up my feelings to you.  I called you out a couple of times without even realising what I am doing.

My joy knew no bounds when I learnt that you were a potterhead too. I dint care for anything else to be common between us after that. It was after my failed attempts at meeting you did my friends taught me on how to approach a girl. Moreover you were my cousin and I shouldnt have taken this much time to tell you these things. I wish I had spoken about this then.

But you moved to Bang and i thought my time will come, may be sometime later. I did even try to forget you and thought of moving on with my life but one way or the other, your words found its way inside and I started longing for your texts again.

The second blow came when i thought you blocked me. Yes, that was what i thought. "After all my precautious steps(read texts), what i did to do to her to be in this state". That was then I mustered up the courage to even call you. You blamed your phone for the blocking drama and i believed that, trust me. I did.

I came to a conclusion that I could not throw you out of my memories just like that. I wanted to declare what i feel for you before deciding further. These thoughts were stirring in my head through out the christmas holidays last year and i was adamant on meeting up with you before the year end. New Year happened and i was in my happy state dyring my holidays in Goa. But you were there too in my head taking the right place.

I bought a couple of gifts for you from Goa and asked you if you were okay with meeting in Bangalore on my way back. That was actually my plan before even asking you, but was spoilt on my journey back, thanks to my adventures there.

And through out January i was busy with some commitments that i couldnt avoid and i was happy chatting with you too. You sounded cheerful then.

But when Feb was born you were back to your keeping to yourself type that i couldn't be normal again. I was really scared this month that you might mistake me for hitting at you on Feb 14. Because i actually was not, atleast in my head. I waited for Feb 14 to pass, secretly praying to myself that you should stay single atleast until the day you read this.


Dear lady tomorrow is your birthday and here I am wishing you all the happiness in the world from the bottom of my heart.


After waiting for such a long time, I badly want to talk to you today. I dont know why, but i have a bad feeling that I might spoil your big day, if I did so. I am in a dilemma actually to whether wait for a few more days or to just break the ice no matter what.

Trust me lady, I dont think this is love. I am not asking you to love me or marry me. I want to let you know that I like you very much. I want to have deep and meaning ful conversations with you. I wanna travel with you. I want to admire your mood swings. I want to watch you smile. I want to travel with you. I want to climb a mountain with you. I wanna go on a boat with you by my side to the middle of the sea. I want to be inspired by you. I want us to finish each others sentences.

Lady, would you mind sharing a coffee with me.

Forever,

The hidden face.
