INTRICATE HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS
That day, I paid a visit to my aunt who has been hospitalized for several weeks. After
visiting her, I thought of having a snack at the hospital lunchroom. Although crowded, the
lunchroom offered a moment of peace for me as I sat having a sip of coffee. The quietness and
peace soon started to give strange vibes to me and I was unable to comprehend what it was. To
make these strange feelings go away, I reminisced about the days when I would go to my aunt’s
place have limitless fun. Lost deep in my thoughts, I kept staring outside the door of the
lunchroom when suddenly my eyes struck the sight of a sturdy looking person. I realized that he
might have been staring at me for a long time but I failed to notice, as I was lost in my thoughts.
I have to admit that his stare invoked a strange feeling in me; a feeling that I liked. After
moments of exchanging looks, I stared away. In the next moment, he was beside me. That
moment shook me and for the first time probably, in my 20 years of life, my heart beat faster
than it ever did. This went on for couple of days more and I do not know when I got addicted to
him. His way of looking at me and making me feel shy without even uttering a word enchanted
me. More than anything, his look when he finds me talk to some other boy, gave an impression
that he was into deep with me. Things went as far as he started coming to my place, although I
had no idea how he knew where I stayed. Later, I guessed he might have stalked me back home.
All this seemed like a fantasy coming true for me. To a woman of 20 years, receiving such
attention does seem like a fantasy coming true.
