Special...

As a young girl, i always had a very clear outline about the kind of person with whom i would eventually fall in love. My sister used to laugh at me when i would narrate to her the long list of qualities that i wanted my partner to possess. But as time passed, reality crept into me and the "outline" started to fade away and got modified innumerable times. In layman's language we call it "experience"...I had lost almost all hopes of finding that one person who would make a chill run down my spine every time he had his eyes glued onto mine; whose world would revolve around me all throughout his life.
But i turned out to be the the lucky one!! It was like any other summer afternoon; sitting in college we were discussing a street play that we were supposed to perform, when for the first time i felt his eyes fixed on me. Little i had realized that this one look would change my life forever. He left me confused!!...I could not read his thoughts. Was he really passionate about me or was it just a figment of my imagination?...Days passed. I was still confused and now a tinge of fear got added to it. Was my long forgotten dream finally coming true?
He was pip and perfect. Every word he uttered was like a strong magnet that drew me closer and closer to him. Yes, i fell in love with him and some voice deep within my heart kept telling relentlessly that he too had the same intense feelings for me. I wanted him; wanted to spend every single moment of my life with him. But it was not easy. I had to let go off many other relationships in order to bond with this single relation. Was it worth it? How could this one person become so special to me in so less time? How could his love for me give me so much strength that i was ready to undertake any risk in order to be with him?? Honestly, I did not have any answer to these and innumerable other questions that were revolving in my head.
All I knew was that He was special; so special that everything else seemed petty in front of him. It took me months to arrive at this conclusion. And when I did, I feared was he still there for me? Would he gaze at me with those same passionate eyes as he did the very first day?...I heaved a sigh of relief when I realized that he was still the same; his love for me had not changed a bit.
There are times in everyone's life when hard decisions are to be made. But ones they are made, one should not lament over them. I had made my decision and today we are together. I could not have been happier than this!!.. I have finally realized what it feels like to be special for someone. And without a doubt, he will always be- My special one!!
