The New Girl In Class Ep. 9 - I almost got kissed

Remember those old days when there was some romantic movie going on and the hero and heroine met after a lot of tragedies and then they were about to kiss in a garden and then the bush comes up guarding their lip-lock. And if you are into the old hindi movies they just turn back away from the camera. Disgusting!

Hey, I'm not being a pervert or acting like one. I also have a girlfriend, well kind of and i was also kissed recently....well, almost but that is a great advancement too. 

So let me take you back in time. Hey wait! I'm not telling you to go back into prehistoric times but yeah a couple of days might just hit the chords. 

December 25 was the day when i asked Jasleen out for a date and unfathomably she accepted the proposal. I tried hard to not act like I'm shocked or something. So with my looks all changed, new shoes, new dress and a huge load of cologne and some peppermint in my mouth i set off to pick-up Jasleen from her hostel.

About my wardrobe if you ask, I put on a brand new henley shirt from pepe jeans and a black slim-fit jeans from Levis and put on a pair of brand new nike sneakers all sponsored by my father's money which I picked up to buy books and stuff. It's not that I am not feeling guilty or something but yeah when he finds it out he's gonna get really pissed on me and I'll be screwed for sure.

I reached the hostel to find out that she was waiting for me near the gate along with some of her friends who were constantly smiling like I was helping her flee and was gonna marry her later. Oh god! The warden was not there as she had gone out for a day and most of the students had gone home as it was holidays so the hostel was almost empty. 

" I thought you'd come on a sexy bike to pick me up and then say 'hop on baby' " said Jasleen.

" I think it'd be rather safe if we go by auto. Why you wanted to be treated like that? " I asked.

She smiled and then, we walked towards the auto stand. On the way, she was looking down and smiling, not like the 'Bahu' smiling on seeing her husband who is coming back after 6 months from job and then you get to finally spend a good time with him and when he goes away and then comes back the next season, you welcome him with his successors on your lap. COUGH!!

She looked confident enough and I was acting somewhat weird I think. Earlier when i used to take an evening walk in the park, I would see couples walking holding their hands together and the people who passed by surely bent in to see the girl's face at-least once. Hell, i sure felt i had all eyes on me.

"You boys must feel really proud by impressing a girl right?"

"what?"

"yeah, impress a girl, take her out, show her off in front of your friends and then take advantage of her emotions and then throw them off like a rug sac. Very manly of-course"

"No, I didn't mean anything like that. Its just i...i...."

"Don't lie, you wanna share the bed with me, as in the end it's all about showing the strength of your dong"

"No, I'm not like that. Don't misunderstand me. I really like you and want to know you better"

"So, you don't wanna have sex? Are you homo or impotent or do you have any side effects?"

We both were silent and then suddenly we burst out in laughter. Though I was shocked to see this side of her. But yeah, in the end you can't underestimate the power of femininity. 
To be honest, I was trying to hold her hand in mine the whole way.

We reached the auto-stand and then set-off for Dextro City Mall. I made a 3 way plan for the day:

  1. Go to PVR and watch the latest romantic or emotional movies with her.
  2. Have a snack at Cafe Coffee Day or McDonald's.
  3. Return home after a long walk. (Hey i don't have the funds for a long drive) 

But, if everything went according to my plans, then i would become a millionaire till now. She was a whole other personality whom i thought she was. The girl who didn't talk to anyone in the class, only kept herself to her own matters and never interfered in other's work had now faded. This side of her was so vibrant that I couldn't take my eyes of her. She had her control on me. And no matter what people say about 'man-ego' I really loved being manipulated by her.

When I asked her if she wanted to see a romantic movie, she frowned and asked me frankly "Do you really have your balls at the right place"
I seriously didn't knew what to answer. 
"Let's watch Transformers"
"Your wish is my command MAM"

The more frank she became with me, the deeper i felt a passionate feeling of love for her. A funny little trivia i want to share with you all is that couples who walk in the mall with their hands held against each other may seem romantic. But it's a way of the Husband's to save their pocket from burning and their better half from entering and shopping expensive brands. 

At the ending scene of the movie, when the heroine kisses the boy after all the damn city has been destroyed by the robots, i tried to push my hand forward and grasp her hand on the seat slowly. I was trying to touch her palm with my smallest finger and when almost spontaneously she turned around and held my hand firmly and rest her head on my shoulders. It was so unbelievable that i couldn't guess what was going one for a couple of seconds. 

"Hey, don't act like a boy. Be a man, but you are too cute for a man. You can stay that way my fluffy uffy panda"

Later we had a snacks at CCD and McDonald's. I was somewhat happy that something went as planned.

It has been 3 days since the 25th and I still remember the last few moments of that day. It was around 10:30 at night when i dropped her off in front of her hostel. As it was Christmas, there were mistletoe placards around set up by the St.Laurence Episcopal community a 10 minutes walk distance place from the hostel due east.

Everything seemed to pause for a second, the silent cool breeze started to blow kissing her hair locks and teasing her by the neck. I was freezing too. For a split second, our eyes were glued to each other's sight. No movement, no hustle. I made the move towards her lips, she closed her eyes and let her face out. I could feel my heart pulsating rapidly than ever. Then suddenly she paused at some vicinity. She withdrew her face and then went towards her hostel entrance. I turned around and started walking back to my PG. 


Suddenly, she came back and kissed my ice-cold cheeks softly. It's nice to know you. I think I'm not ready for what you might be expecting from me.

I put my finger on her lips and hushed her.

I kept looking at her until the last glimpse of her shadow caste by the winter moon disappeared into the darkness.
