“Dream as if you will live forever; Live as if you will die today.” James Dean Found Love at First Sight I was in a café shop, staring, wondering. Then I saw her outside the display window. She was extremely beautiful. She was looking at me, not moving. I smiled, light like a silver cloud. For a moment, I was mesmerised. She seemed in a hurry. I invited her in. We sipped our drinks, which I ordered. We spoke about ourselves and about love. It seemed there was an allurement between us. Indecision could not resolve our attractions. There was a dangerous spell between us, Something we could not easily resolve. Was there chemistry between us? Something lingered, I put my hand on hers. Had we a promise neither of us dared to name? Then, between stolen yet long glances, A world waited vast enough to enthral us. She showed me her train ticket for the next day. That day, she was mine. I cared not for the next day. Placed 1
