Last night
She said-“ Yes, I am in love
Tomorrow I will tell you
Meet me at sharp at 9 a.m.”
My heart pounced as never before
Full of excitement, nervousness
Everyone knew
We both are more than friends
Yet never realized
The day I conceived falling for her
My core felt mirth
Afraid to lose her as she was my bestie
Though she knew I liked her more than a friend
But she never asked about it
I decided to stay quiet
And let her grasp this feeling
The wait was about to end and
The day finally arrived
The sun smiling brightly
Yes, today she will confess me those 3 magical words
I was so excited, that I reached the said venue before time at 8:45 a.m.
My heart ticks each second like the tick of a watch
At 9 I see her walking towards me
Bouquet in her hand and a big bright smile on her face
My heart seems to be on cloud nine
Singing and dancing as if no one is watching me
The moment she reaches me
She bursts out in happiness
Greets me, hugs me
Making it special for me
Finally she says- “I am in love”
The time has come I need to tell the person too
Behind her I see another man calling her name out loudly-“Ria”
She turned back and ran towards him
Hugged him, kissed him and said those magical words
I was dumbstruck!
She confessed her love
But not to me
She loved someone else
Then what was all that last night?
Why did she call me and asked me to meet?
Perceiving reality
She walks back towards me
This time holding hand in hand of that man
Whom she just confessed her love
Introduced me, Ricky meet Melvin
The love and man of my life
Melvin wanted to meet you and invite you for our wedding
And be his groomsman at our wedding
I wanted to tell her no
but somehow I couldn’t refuse their request
Melvin bowed on his knees with a ring and asked to marry him
Allowing her hand ahead she said yes and accepted the ring on her finger
My heart cried from within yet gave a big smile for her
She walked away with him
I was still standing there wishing she would turn around and come back to me
But I guess it was just one sided love that is hurting me the most
My heart feels pain yet can’t think of stealing away her happiness.
