I don’t remember his
features but he was a fine-looking boy, someone who looked like he came right
out of a movie, and would be incredibly out of my league. Imagine my surprise
when he came with his brother, who was striking in his own way, and his father
to talk to my Father.
I had nothing to say
except I kept thinking about KS. I couldn’t wait to get out of the beautiful
trap and tell him how this incredibly fine boy wanted me and how my parents
were rooting for it. Silence made up for all the things that needed to be said.
Then he walked into my dark room and in gradual speed extracted all the truth out
of me. He decided to walk away at the unraveling of a ‘startling’ fact that I
have someone else in mind. I begged him not to tell my Father and I don’t think
he conformed. I’m not sure, but I remember being terrified at the thought of
confronting my parents.
I woke up realizing how I had
been lying to myself all these time telling myself that my biggest fear was
mediocrity when there’s always been something else under the rug.
