The other day, we were just sitting and sipping coffee in
my room. It was unusual as I hardly remember talking to him when he is in his
senses.
He was in a good mood and so was I. We were just chit
chatting about life, our experiences and all. Every word he spoke, every expression
he made was just so admirable.
Taking the conversation further, I tried one of my girly tricks
of making him jealous. I started discussing a couple of guys with him, and our
flirtatious chats and all. He was listening seriously at first but started
smiling after a while. That smile which told me that he had got my intentions.
He took a sip of his coffee and looked straight into my
eyes, “You think this will work on me?”
“No idea, but atleast I tried.” I replied a smile.
He smiled and continued, “I am different, Garima. Making me
jealous will only push me away from you. It won't make me want you more.
That is how it has been in the past and I don’t see it
changing either.
I'm not very competitive, if I see someone who's making you
a lot happier than I am, I'll back out because I'll assume you want that person
a lot more. What will matter to me is the happiness of the person who matters
to me.
Although it'll hurt seeing someone other than me make you
happy, but I’ll walk away with a sense of satisfaction that you are happy.
I don't like the feeling of being unwanted or being the
second best person in your life in whatever sense you take me. I'm a very
jealous person and I seriously believe that my people should always get the
best possible things in life. Whether that includes me or not.”
My heart was filled with glee as I stood up and sat on one
knee with one of my hands resting on his leg.
“And that’s what makes you the best for your people, boy!”
We were locked in that moment. We knew we had initiated a
journey we both were unknowingly excited about.
