Some time back, I got to know this one amazing woman who would only look at the sunshine and not the gloomy, dimmed nights. Like a magnet, she attracted a lot of people to come and get to know the reason she can see this world in a whole different point of view. I was not excluded.
I loved the way we interacted and how she's always been herself, not forceful and just plain cool. We had a lot of hobbies in common but one thing that she didn't like doing was squash. But, I love squash. It was amazing to see how that particular woman played squash seriously in her whole life time with me, for me. 10
Our first date was at a squash court!
And then there was one day when I came back in anger and the only person I'd want to turn to was her. Not because she'd listen and be angry together but because she is the person who would get me cold water, calm me down, make my favourite trifles, force me to nap and after I've completely cooled down, she'd say "everything's all right". She rarely asks me what's wrong, unless I tell.
A completely lovely relationship with absolutely no pressure.
I woke up one morning in my office in Amsterdam to find that woman standing right in front of me with a box of chocolate muffins & a cup of black coffee. I found her presence to be more awakening than the smell of freshly brewed coffee, though. She's this type of woman who wouldn't shout "wake up!" beside your ears to wake you up. Instead, she would gladly give you a big, tight hug and plays with your hair in a graceful manner.
Unexpected moves at all times.
9 months ago, we took a step further and got into a relationship. 9 months later, we've changed each other. She isn't just another person in my life, she's now one part of my life.
I am in love. Crazily.
Our relationship turns 9 months old today & I hope there are hundreds of months more to go.
Happy monthiversary, B!
