The story of LOVE..


When something begins, you generally have no idea how it's going to end. The room mates you were forced to take in become your best friends, that one guy u gave a 2nd look to becomes the love of your life..  

I met Sree when i was 18., we were class mates, i remember my 1st day in class, i was a late comer and as i walked into the class all the tables were occupied so i sat in the last table, the guys walked in after me, Sree being 1 of them, as we stood up for our daily prayers i bent and looked at him again and he looked back. All that we did the 1st few days were exchange stolen glances and maybe we exchanged names too.. 
Slowly we got talking, i realised he was the only 1 i could talk to properly.. There was a gap with the others, the culture gap, the language gap, but with him i got along well. And yeah i should admit, i liked him, right from that 2nd glance i gave him in class, though i waited for him to do the proposing.. Ever since love has always been the guiding force of our lives.. 



My love story isn't different from anyone else's., if you have ever fallen in love with someone, you know the feeling very well, those glances across the room, the love notes, the racing heart, the dates, the 1st kiss, the frequent outings, the longing to be together, the long calls, the jealousies, everything about being in love is wonderful.. And everytime i think about them, it makes me smile., And i realise i was sooo in love right from the start and i loved every moment of falling in love.


After 3 years of college life, he moved to bangalore, neither of us knew what would happen to us or what life had in store or how we would end up., but i did know that this was the love of my life, the one that will always remain in my heart with memories fresh as ever.. You know they say, sometimes you just know what you want, you just know when it is the right guy, you know it when u have that feeling in your gut, you know its just meant to be that way, you know you want nothing else, the moment, the vibes, it just felt right.. 

And so I never let go, I went to bangalore too for a masters degree and we were together again, and this time it was different, everything changed, suddenly there were no bitchy girl friends, no restricted hostel and nosey wardens.. we spent more time and days together.. And if you ask me these were my best days, and of course, the starting., It was different and i think we became more closer, we became more attached and fell more and more in love.. 
I did have crushes in school but this was the first time i ever fell in love., and it was definitely the best thing that could have ever happened.. 

After 8 years of being together and after a lot of parental issues, we got married.. We made our promises, promises that were already made long ago in the scared spaces of our hearts, promise of love., promise of belief in eachother., commitment., together-ness through thick and thin, through sickness and health, through ups and downs.. 




You never know the biggest day of your life is the biggest day. Not until it's happening, not until you're right in the middle of it. The day you commit to something or someone. The day you meet your soul mate. The day you realize there's not enough time. Those are the biggest days. The perfect days..

The story of our love., a story that will never end..
