There is a guy who is greater than God, He is that guy who can speak out his heart looking straight into the eyes of the girl he loves - (courtesy a tamil film song)
It is destiny I would say, to meet the first (of the many yet to come) " My Kinda Girl" in bar in an unknown land where I thought I could manage with my Prathmic second class degree in Hindi. But I was wrong; Neither could I manage the Hindi nor did they speak Hindi. Marathi was being pelted right on my face and the numbers too written in Marathi - *tha Dei!
Me, a typical Indian who believes in "Gorgeous girl will always fall for the Dorkiest of guys" theory, not realizing the fact that this was the very reason for me being single, fantasized (no! not in that way!) about meeting a girl who would have the figure of Diana Penty(Need to sync up with current times no..) and the brains of .. hmmm lemme think... hmmm.. ah can't think of any one.. so the point is with "Brains", should love Quentin Tarantino, Illayaraja, ManiRathinam, Rahul Dravid, Roger Federer, Mikka Hakkinen ,Breaking bad , should have an opinion about politics, should be a feminist and should be open to arguments too!
(Too many 'should's', No grammar, No parallel structure maintained - Now you know why I screwed up GMAT)
As you'd have guessed already, I too had no hopes of meeting some one with those qualities and it remained a fantasy till I met her.
So , I had to meet this long time friend at this bar-cum-resto called Thank God Its Friday on a tuesday. We had ordered two pitchers of Beer and a Mojito each!
( by the by, she was drinking Rum on the rocks #facepalm!!) and sitting on the seats lined up facing the Bartender, who was from the North-east and his face looked bruised, wanted to ask him about the recent riots *Straying away from topic*
Just behind my friend, in my line of sight there she was, animatedly explaining some thing to her friend and I was lost at first sight! *Bells rang, light bulb got lit, Birds flew, waves crashed against the rocks*
It's the love at first sight, which brings out a different human being out of you. It is innocent, selfless(More or less) and it simply gives a heavenly feeling. Cheeks turning red ( It depends, can be her blushing or she using her footwear !) , increased heartbeat, dying to have a glance, all these moments and memories associated with it are just unforgettable. It is the state in which man sees things; most widely different from what they are and longs to get that same feeling again but in vain.
Dressed in a black top , sported a Grayish casual 3/4th , thin (as in suitable to me , If you have seen me), sexy shot-haired ( Not the typical Bob cut types but as in Emma Watson style as in
here.) ; Had a tattoo on her neck which read "life".She had a very sexy dimple on one cheek - Not the "cute" one that is big and right in the middle but was the "hotter" one more towards the chin, a few centimeters off the place where the mustache would join the beard to make it a french for a guy! - I had no way else to explain the exact location man! plus I am an engineer- That sums it up right!
So as usual "I" continued with my Hysteric/Animated chat with my friend to get "her" attention - Like Genilia in the Bommarillu movie or like any other girl's hysterics, after she had noticed that a guy is looking at her.
As always no use! she never even noticed me,by this time I was doing mono-acting more like the over paid acting of Jothika and the gimmicks of T.Rajender , still no yield!.
"Always remember to be courteous, polite, confident, mature, and have fun ", I said to myself - Ah! who am I kidding, If only I had any one of those above qualities I would have been a father of two kids by this time!
So finally I summed up all my courage ( yeah of course I was drunk , so it had to be there somewhere) and asked her out(*cannot reveal the secret*) and she said those amazing three words " Piss of Dude!"... I dint hear a damn word she said, dint wanna.. Its the best ever feeling, like Rocky winning the world championship or you choosing the correct door in the lady or the tiger riddle. It was a state of frenzy like when you had a cocktail of drinks, actually I did have, but that's not the point! In my head Bryan Adam's was singing -
"I wanna know you - like I know myself
I'm waitin' for you - there ain't no one else
talk to me baby - scream and shout
I want to know you - inside out"
I know what you're thinking , "Dai Peter"; Yes was tempted to say Illayaraja but it all has become a cliche after these Goutham Menon movies plus a cover of the song had been played earlier in the bar.!
So coming to the point. I don't think whether I would have liked her more if I had gotten any other reply from her! But that's the "My kinda Girl!"
Like as usual, one has to move on or otherwise be brave enough to say "The being in love is better than the falling in love".
Adios!
