Love at Last Sight (...yeah u've read it right)




7:05 AM, I don't remember the actual date, School


She came jumping with joy as if she had just won a chance to meet Aamir khan (her favourite actor).
" Hey Ashish! I've a good news "
-our heroine of the story
Don't think I'm a person who thinks too much......but
the above line is still live and fresh in my
tiny brain cells.
To say the least, this line certainly changed my life. I became a different Ashish.
You all must be wondering how these insignificant words can have such an effect on a person as stubborn and intuitive like me.
Believe me now I'm going to tell you a secret of my life which many people are still unaware.
...........................................................................
So story continues...
Me:hey ! What's the good news?
SHEEEE (let her name be this): My father has got a new job at Andhra Pradesh, and we'll be leaving next month after the school closes for summer vacation.

This was the statement which made me feel," is it good news? (Certainly I didn't ask her)".
There's something wrong!!..............I mean really wrong, for the last decade or so since I knew her (from my childhood days), we never were great friends or good friends, I remember one incident when she was seriously hurt by my truthfulness.....let's leave that....
So, the gist is we're just classmates .............that means only classmates not at all friends (forget good friends...........)
But I don't know why I felt there’s something wrong ...............seriously wrong with me.

I was flabbergasted by this incident. I couldn't handle that, I felt the birth of a new Ashish.

Then comes the actual story which changed my whole life. I owe everything to that incidence which made me a real man from a school boy of class 9, who still was unaware of the gift of puberty(I know you all would guess what I mean and you are Damn!correct..10 on 10).

My bathroom became my weeping room. I never had cried for anything in my life, not for any toy, not for sweets, not for ice-creams, in-short I was quite content with my life, as they(everyone) always knew what I needed when.
It was a very different experience for me ,as I always used to see Hindi films and think why do a girl and boy love each other, what are the pecuniary benefits of this sort of feeling when after all one day you'll get married with a handsome amount of Dowry Groom or a pretty good looking girl (99% probability)??

But, SHEEEE (yeah she, the heroine of our story) created such an impression on my heart that it was very difficult to understand that what is wrong with me???
School turned out to be my favourite place for the following 25 days..............my major part of thought process diverted towards analyzing the geometry of her face....I tried to guess ,"is her face in accordance with Pythagoras magical ratio(needless to say I was good in maths)".
My face was always in right angle to the direction of the teacher to imagine myself with SHEEEE.....It was a change I couldn't think of in my dreams!!!
In the mean time how those 25 days passed is still a mystery for me.....
Those 25 days really gave a new dimension to my personality; I wrote my first poem dedicated to her ...which was presented to her on the last day before she left finally leaving transcendental and permanent effects on my life.
I still remember the first line of that poem...
"O SHEEEE! O SHEEEE! Don't go....
..............................................."

So, people I declare finally that I realized that I'm (was) in love.
But this realization couldn't help anybody (certainly not me) as since then we've never seen each other..........to be more precise it has been six years when I last apprehended her beautiful face.
I still think that was my feeling genuine? Was/am in love?
What do you think? Considering my level of maturity at that age........I was yet to cut my 15th Birthday cake....
So, please give your view as I'm still looking for an answer......I still miss her.........But some part in me always says that is this love..........????
So, do you believe in "love at last sight"????
Waiting for your reply......


[Update] : We share a special friendship now. I have lost my immaturity a bit!

The answer to the question is 'Yes'.
You know, i've never read anything on the idea of 'love at last sight'. Congrats for you wrote something on such a new concept.

I too have come across the situation of teenage immature love. Its certainly a different feeling. Changes one a lot.

Nice post indeed.

arre boss bol daal jo tere dil mein hai

ye love he hai

bahut kuch bolne ka tha usko ...par sab kuch dil mein he reh gaya

baat maan .....abhi bhi tym hai ....bol daal

Hey Ashish!! It's 100% true & pure Love Dear,,,,sometimes in friendship we hangout,sometimes friends make as flying but sometime it's enough to know that they r just standing by ,so i can say u were not just classmates,,everyday there was so many sweet incidents that u was surly enjoyed & want to shear ,,but at that
time u was unawere that u r going to FALL in love with SHEEE..u just realize little late...that a very special part of Uuu ur Heart is going away from Uu,,it was great to write a poem for her ,I hope u hed
given her ,she should replied ,,,if she wasn't no need to worry bcoz Truelove always wins,,,use tumhari hona hoga toh wo jarur wapis aayegi tumhari life main..Dil agar sachcha
ho RAB sab kar de setting...remmember that ur love should not be decrease with time ,,Hope she would read this LOVe @

HI
ASHISH GOURAV ...
I THINK IT WAS AN ATTRACTION BECOZ AT THE VERY LAST SIGHT ... THE WAY SHE TOLD YOU THE GUDS NEWS ... THAT EXPRESSIONS MADE YOU TO GET ATTRACTED FOR HER .. NOTHING ELSE IT WAS NOT LOVE COZ ... SHE WAS JST A CLASSMATE FROM CHILDHOOD ...JST A FRND NOT A GUD FRND ... SO IT WAS JST AN ATTRACTION AT THE VERY LAST POINT ..NEWAZ ... MY THOUGHT SAYS ONLY THIS STATEMENT,, .. N YA THE STORY HAPPENS WITH YOU IS REALLY GUD... N YOU BECUM ATTRACT N DIDN'T UNDRSTAND BECOZ YOU WERE JST 15TH ..!!

Ashish Gourav said...

@venkat
it's a true story so ending is not upto me!!!

@gaurav_pratap2147
hey thnx for ur suggestion

@sw2
hey thnx for ur valuble words i do agree with yoy but still some part within me doesn't agree with this logic.....anyway thnx for ur comment

Unknown said...

ya buddy , its true .

Unknown said...

Hey Ashish.. The story is Beautiful.. I admire you emotions as i also umderwent a simliar kinda story but ther is a slight diffrence.. Your girl left somewhere but my girl left forever. I hope you get what um saying...yes that's true she dies just after 10 days time, she comiited that she also loves me..after 2 years of dedication of mine..Come ealry from my engg. classes...standing in sunshine for hours in june and july months...but bad luck..i will say it was love..but now life has moved on..after 3-4 years i even dont remember her face exactly..so move on..buddy...just keep meories for a good song and feel the pain and enjoy whenever you miss that time...so in my words... Virah (Doori.. or some sort of seperation) is real love... Milan mein wo baat nahin to virah mein hai...aur aakhir virah se hi moksh (Ultimate freeness) ka rasta khulta hai..life is big and colorful..anjoy every moment of it...Hey all you guys posted a comment here..are with me or not..

Unknown said...

yes its love ashish...true love... am too from ranchi ... right now at pune... faced the same thing...very much similer but at that time my age was 11 years... and she is not with me...but she is within me.....yes she is inside me.. in my every breath..hope atleast u can mean it.. in the same way as u.. i started writing poems for her...and still i write for her....waiting 4 reply....sunil_bharat@sify.com

sajal said...

ok the experts opinion at last :P

sorry by some wonder of fate,i had overlooked this post for this long...not just that I hadnt commented,I hadnt seen it....am glad I did have a look at it today :)

see I think this is a crush...certainly not love...but this doesnt undermine its importance in any way or makes it less sweet...this is a feeling to cherish,but only when u realise that love is something else,that u will be able to recognise it when it happens...
approach her...but not driven emotionally...but by considering several other factors which got to be much more on the mature side...else enjoy this sweet sensation that childhood offers to most ppl

and yaa..if I have correctly guesses the girl...then certainly....tell her,bcoz that I know is love,and thats more than what this post tells...chal hope I didnt confuse u...for further queries...personally baat karte hai

Anonymous said...

it seems that u really are/were in love with her...why didn't you keep contacts with her?

Harry said...

Ya, friends, luv is just natural. and truly jimmy, sad if u lose someone for ever, it hurts more. Then life is like that, it does not stop, goes on...

unique said...

don't worry friend..
i can just say it was just attraction and not love.
i m sure i have sensed such sensation
countless times in my life. but frankly speaking i have left that job of crying everytime i saw a beautiful girl and thinking i was in love with her..............
anyway feel free to give me the address of the "sheee" i shall try to cry for her once...(joking)

Ashish Gourav said...

@abhishek
hmmmm

@jimmy
I'm very sorry for you

@sajal
I've discussed with u personally

@su_thinktank

Shreya Ghosh And Priyanka said...

hey ashish... i really luved ur story !! nd yes .It is luv ! tujhe batana chaiye tha yaar usse !! neways best of luck for ur future !!

anonymousme said...

dude.. it is true love.. u still think about her, still miss her.. even after so many years.. its too obvious.. :)

i too believe in 'love at last sight'.. well not exactly 'last sight'.. but something similar..

i had a friend in school..just a normal friend.. not even someone who was very close to me.. and then i went to college.. and i missed her.. missed her a lot.. i don't know why.. but i missed her.. luckily though after about 2-3 months i gathered up enough courage to express my feelings to her.. and she said she felt the same about me.. and those were the best days of my life.. (yea, i love 'SUMMER OF 69') :)
but 3 months into the relationship she said she wasn't mature enough for all this.. and we broke up.. a year has passed since.. and she is still my last thought at night.. :)

perturbed perceiver said...

beautiful story yaar..
well personally i think it could be love..i.e if u still miss her and al..:)

Ashish Gourav said...

@Shreya Ghosh And Priyanka

Thanks...

@anonymousme

Your case is more difficult to handle than mine dude.
After reading your comment, I feel that "It's better to be single than to be again single"... I hope she comes back in your life.

@perturbed perceiver

Thanks...
yeah! I still miss her. So, I should conclude that I love her!!!

pree said...

hi ashish..

i dont know its love or not...perhaps i know nothin about love..i remember i ws in 8th standard wen i used to lyk a guy 2 yrs senior to me...to shy to talk to him i never ever had even a word wid him..but secretly deep in my heart i hd some feelin for him and it showed..time slipped he left school and so did i..but his thoughts nvr left me..i had a strong belief dat sumday in lyf i would meet him...and 6 yrs later we got in contact thru orkut..and to my surprise he recogonized me and i dont know how he knew very well about wat i felt for him..we met and all my dreams were shattered..the prsn once i considered an ideal hs changed to an xtent dat cant be xplained..now for him feelings didn't mean anything and he turnd out to b very materialistic...that ws the first and last tym i ever talked to him and since then a bitter hatered has filled my heart..hatered not for him but for myself..for making him a part of my dreams...

and i cn only conclude dat...
jb tak aap uski yadein khud tak rakhte ho...aap un yaado ko jeete ho..and once they are out..bas kahani ban kr reh jaata hai..

for u i can only pray...sincerely...god bless u..wish u luck :)

Ah ! love .. you never knwo when it hits you !! but i feel sad when people realize the feelings after ( or at time near to) the person's left them ... I liked your narration !!

Ashish Gourav said...

@priyanka
Welcome to my Blog.....ohhh I'm so sorry for welcoming you so late.......please forgive me.....
thnx for your comment and thnx for following my blog......

coming back to this "Love at last sight".....
hey I'm sad that it happened with you


but I'm in some kindaa touch with "SHEEEE" and I'm sure she is still the same "SHEEEE".....and I still love her despite her feelings for me.......
It's true love I think


@Pretty Me!!
yes love is unpredictable.....
and yes thnx for liking my narration

Unknown said...

nice concept... and while reading, I remembered my times, when I thought just like you - "Why do people fall in love?" - just that I still feel the same way!!! ;) 'coz my 'Shes' and 'The ones' keep coming and going... ;)
gues I'll grow up someday and 'll know the reason...

Ashish Gourav said...

To "SHEEEE"...
I know that you read my blog sometimes which makes me blogging for you....you are very far from me but still I cannot forget you, you are my eternal part of life...I can write a whole book on you...I'm not a loser but I'll only love you till the end of my life...in these 7 years or so I haven't forgot your smile, your wink, your blink, your anger, your lips and everything...I know I should have told you about my feelings for you much before you left but still it was "Love at Last Sight" darling (can I say that)...My love for you is pure and cannot be compared to anything else...I can go on and on and on writing about you but I have to stop somewhere so that I give some relief to my fellow readers...
BEST OF LUCK for your life...
Happy Valentine's day "SHEEEE"
