I remember the first time I set my eyes on those beautiful set of eyes... She was shy, with a cute smile on her face, she greeted me... Called me Sir(obviously)...
At first she was irritating... Vexing me till my bones hurt... Asking too much doubts.... Establishing herself as an insufferable know-it-all...Told me how she scored better in each and every subject she wrote tests on but failed at her most desperate moment... And on and on it went... One story after another... About her being a hardcore vegetarian and throwing up for every piece of meat she ate which her family thought was weird for her... And how she was loved and cared by her teachers and parents and her whole family, of course and still she was underrated than her gifted brother... About her doing the core aspects of her mother's job and still was left unrewarded for her efforts... About how she was forced to love a guy after he stalked (milder language used) her continuously from time to time and how he left her after invoking her love and how she was heartbroken and vowed never to love anyone ever again... Making me realise word after word, sentence after sentence how empty her life was...
Well, I listened to her stories even when I had a choice to make her stop the gibberish she was making me and all the others around her listen... But here's a fun fact.... I never really noticed those eyes after that first sight I had with them.... After a while, she stopped her gibberish and began to talk about what she wanted to do in her life if she was not a caged bird..... People are usually honest when they talk about what they want most in their lives...And about freedom... And then... I looked into those eyes once again...
They were sparkling brilliantly... Like pure gemstones... I thought they were staring at my soul.... How foolish and cautious I was to realise that all the time she was vexing me, talking about her family, her ambition, her lost love yada yada she never looked anywhere but to me wanting me to see the sparkle in those eyes... How late I was to realise that they were sparkling for me..... Wanting me to embrace the shining light....
Who doesn't love light when it shines for you ? Showing a clear path before you... Making you realise the genuineness of the big bang theory after all..... From the huge dormant gas ball sorrounded by emptiness and all, true light was born and the same emptiness helped the light illuminate the whole universe..... And it let me realise an incontrovertible fact, from a dormant heart surrounded by loneliness and all, true love is born and the same loneliness helps the love to spread happiness around it....
I was a lucky guy to feel the sparkle.....
