Into the Outerspace Story Behind Shadow

5th March 2017

If my mom wasn't worried about my love life and hadn't not asked me to find a girl to marry with I wouldn’t have noticed her. It is funny how my mom's comment shaped my life. If she had not been popups in my facebook wall , my eyes may never have met hers and everything would have been different. If I had not been bored and using facebook to get rid of boredness just ten minutes  earlier, it would have been different.Tiny bumps in time shape our lives, even though we spend hours trying to make long-term plans. I had no plan to meet the love of my life on a Facebook. I was there only to kill time and because I had nowhere else to go.

Some say there is an exact moment when you fall in love. I didn’t know if it was true before, but I do now. This was it. When i saw  Richa verma in the fb. wall , the world turned in slow motion. I noticed her delicate eyebrows. They had the perfect length, thickness and width. She would win a ‘best eyebrows’ competition. Perhaps I should have waited to fall in love with her. However, I knew it was pointless. I had little control over my feelings. So from the first second , I was in love. Richa Verma, BCA 6th Sem. student, most beautiful girl on the planet, owner of extraordinary eyebrows.

6th March 2017

I wrote a message  in facebook inbox and sent her . I deleted the text and re-typed it three times. Finally, I pressed send. it was just Hii. The worst wait in life is waiting for someone to text back. Richa didn’t answer for a day. It felt like a week. After one day, I sent the same message again. That way, it would come across as a double delivery rather than me being desperate. It is funny how, when  you got attraction then you want the reply back faster than light. She didn’t reply for another day.  It felt lame.

Maybe her silence meant that she wasn't interested in talking with me.? Panic gripped me. I wondered if messaging to her was the worst mistake of my life.  
After a while My phone beeped. I had a new message on messanger. I opened it was hello . Relief coursed through me. She had sent back a normal, message. I wanted to ask about her life at once , but it felt like a rush.  It should be  teaching course  about  how to talk to girls? Before I could think I  throwed various questions. She didn’t respond for a minute.  Had I messed up again? Was it not the right time to ask such silly questions?  Her reply felt like a thousand red rose petals on my face. 

I wanted to ask her out for coffee, hut couldn’t. I could explain the any conventional subject in three different ways in a row but I could not ask a girl to come to the college cafeteria with me

FEW DAYS LATER
Given that it was a lunch hour .it took us only two minutes in HIDE OUT CAFFE to get a table .
They didn't have food so we ordered coffee.
I realised both of us had a problem initiating conversations. I couldn't talk because I didn't have the confidence. She given a choice.preferred to ve quite.,silent Richa, I wanted to call her.

I had to break this deadlock,if i wanted this to go anywhere. The waiter brought us coffee.
I like peaceful places.

Break the deadlock ivtold myself .
,'so you live with your family in here.
Yes a big one . Parents and with three siblings.

Is everything okey...?? 
I said . Be comfortable . She sipped her coffee in silence . We moved from caffee after a long chat and walked from Mall Road to Church Famous for its beauty in Shimla,as we were talking two girls arrived us .

We have been looking for you everywhere,one of them said.
Hey girls RICHA said , meet my village side friend . HITENDER . Meet Anjali, Megha.friends from my class.
I realised my place in her life was at that time Village side friend.
Perhaps she had to say this as for our highness
The gilrs looked me up and down ,down and up checking me out.'Not bad Richa ' Megha said one of the talkative girl in the group.
The girls froze and then began to talk to each other. It dawned on me that they were starring at me. 
What happened I said to Anjali
You looked silent is there anything related to attenndence issue, Megha replied instantly that she had face of being sad always she used to cry all the time , so don't worry of her we will take care of her.
We walked out to Amphietheatre main gate , and sat down there.for a while.
What about tea,friends....? I asked to them.
Megha the talkative girl in the group replied , Thanks,we just ate lunch.
We had there little gossips and later on moved to the place from where we all will have to say good bye Bus stand from where the actual life of a person begin in Hilly area like Shimla.
We standup in silence to wait bus for a few minutes,
I feel better she said, after a while, She looked at me .
The last of the daylight tinted her face orange as she was facing direct sunlight .making her look ethereal
I wanted to give her a hug.
She and her friend Anjali got a bus and vanished from my eyeside,After our first meet we started to chat and spending more  time together.

*19 March 2017*

Did you just put your hand on mine.? She whispered,but not so loud to reach of people around us in the movie theatre .
Yup I said 
Mr. Verma g  You have come to see movie Focus on that.
I am trying ,I said and I turned my attention back to Varun Dhawan (as Badrinath in his movie) . He had a scene of proposing Aliya Bhatt .
We had come to Ritz cinema at ridge Shimla.
Richa had finally agreed to see a movie with me and my friends
Now as Badrinath continued his role, I wondered what I meant to her. I did most of talking . I would tell her stories from the residence.
 I am residing in Sector 37C Chandigarh and told her tales of  my messy room, late night masti with my room mate Sahil Chauhan, one of talkative and intelligent person in my life .
 I don't share much about my life with anyone but Sahil is the person with whom I share each and every step of my life .

After our movie date we started to spend even more time together. I had many arguments with her over past 20days. She had become expert at dodging the issue always getting away with my nonsense.
Sashank  and Sahil had become my core gang in 2779 37C as she couldn't be with me all the time and when she couldn't I hung out with these guys.
So,are you guys in a relationship.?
Things seems to be escalating. Sahil said.
I smiled to him,he had asked me the most stupid question.
Did I love her.? Did the earth go around the sun.? Did night follow day.?
Gone you are so gone. I can see it on your face Sahil said.
My single bed groaned as three boys lay down on it. We starred at ceiling. As self styled relationship experts , they offered me advices.
Be careful of beautiful girls.
What , I said irritated.what....??? I sat on study table and snatched laptop .
Beautiful girls need toys for time pass. Don't be a toy Sashank said.
Does she know your desires..? Sashank continued.
