you seen her eyes? Oh her eyes! I can easily lose myself into their depth and never come back. And the innocence that those eyes held! Oh God! Kiara, it could be the death of me. And …….”

“….and her smile! When she smiles it’s like the whole world lights up and sings the song of joy. That smile has the power of healing every pain, every sorrow that reside in one’s heart and bring a smile of their own on their lips. And the sound of her laughter! When she laughs it’s like the most melodious music playing in your ear. It’s….it’s simply magical, Kiara, simply magical. And…..”

 

 

One month later

 

“ ….. and every time she slowly removes her silky hair strands that comes in front of her lovely face with her finger, I just can’t turn my eyes from her. She does that so gracefully, it’s almost like an art and my fingers crave to touch those soft hairs of her. And have you ever noticed her hair when she is under the sun? When the sunrays touches her hair it… it glows! Like gold! It’s such a magnificent sight to see! It’s like.. watching.. an angel in heaven! And….”

 

 

Three months later

 

“……I mean isn’t she just amazing? Did you see how gentle she was with those kids? I bet she likes kids. God, how can someone be any more perfect? She is beautiful, she is intelligent, she is kind, she is gentle, she is good at her work and she is good with kids! Can you really blame me for liking her so much? How can anyone help but not like her? How can anyone help but not fall for her? She…”

 

“Brian,”

 

“ made me fall in love with her the moment I saw her! I always knew that love was a wonderful feeling but I had no idea that it felt this good to be in love! And the fact that it’s her that I’m in love with, makes everything even more beautiful. I mean I love…”

 

“Brian,”

 

“everything about her. Her eyes, her hair, her smile, her tears, her joy, her pain, her blush, her smell I am drawn to every single thing that is connected to her. It is even frightening sometimes that…”

 

“Brian!” Kiara shouted this time and that finally grabbed Brian’s attention and stopped his nonstop one-sided conversation which had the sole topic of singing songs of Heather Brown.

 

“What?” Brian asked confusedly.

 

Kiara sighed and took a spoonful of the red velvet cake served to her. “Here,” she said as she shoved the spoon into Brian’s mouth, “taste this and tell me how it is.”

 

Though primarily startled by Kiara’s sudden attack, Brian forgot all about it as soon as his tongue came in contact with the soft delicious thing that soon filled all his senses with its rich taste remembering him all over again why red-velvet cakes were his favorite.

 

“It’s good, really really good. I meant it’s super delicious!”

 

“Super delicious you say? Well then,” she said as she handed over the plate to Brian, “Why don’t you just eat this super delicious cake of yours and spare my poor old brain for once? I’m sure this tastes far better than my brain. ”

 

“What? What do you mean? I don’t understand.”

 

“You don’t understand! You don’t understand! For the past three months you’ve been continuously eating my head out and driving me into a complete nuts by your non-stop praise songs of Heather and you tell me you don’t understand! From the moment you have first laid your eyes on her, every single day, every single moment I’ve spent with you were spent with me constantly hearing you saying, ‘Heather is this… Heather is that..’, I mean I get it that you are crazy about her and all but I’m in my limits now!”

 

Brian hung his head low with guilt, realizing for the first time in the last three months what a bother he had been to Kiara all this time. On his own excitement of being in love for the fist time and also the last time as far as he was concerned for he believed that true love  happens only once in a lifetime, he completely forgot how disgusted Kiara feels at the very mention of romance! And for the past three months, every single word that had left his mouth was related to this very thing that kiara hated the most. He wondered why he hadn’t realized his actions before. He couldn’t imagine how hard it’d been for her to endure all this without uttering a single word of complains! He had no idea how did she managed to patiently hear him all this time as Kiara Jones were known for anything but being patient! He wondered why didn’t she lose her temper long before! He knew for sure that if it were for anyone else, she’d not have tolerated a moment of this what she’d call nonsense!

 

“I’m sorry kiara,” he said regretfully, “I was so lost in my own feelings that I didn’t realize what a bother I have been to you all this time. Please forgive me. I’ll try to be in more control of my feelings from now on!”

 

As soon as the words left his mouth, Kiara hit him on the back of his head with her palm. “You idiot! Who told you to control your feelings? You seriously thought that I’d be mad at you for sharing your feelings with me? You are such a moron! Who else would you share your feelings with if not me? It’s my right and only my right to know about your every single feeling! Besides, you just got the whole thing wrong! I am not mad at you because you’ve been driving me nuts with your obsession with her. I’m mad because you didn’t do a single thing, didn’t take a single action, didn’t even approach her for once to make her aware of your feelings! I mean seriously, you have dragged this whole ‘admiring from far’ thing long enough! It’s high time that you gather some guts and approach her. Now just get your a** over there and ask her on a date already!”

 

“Ask her on a date!” Brian exclaimed with a bewildered expression. “You can’t possibly expect me to do that! You know that I can’t do that!”

 

“Why not? I mean, before it was because you didn’t believe in meaningless dates right? But now, it’s with the girl that you love! So what’s the problem now? Why can’t you ask her out?”

 

“Because I just can’t! I mean I’ve never asked anyone out before and I have no idea how to even approach her! I have no idea what to do and how to do. It’s just …. I just….ah how do I explain it? I simply can’t do it Kiara. I get nervous just thinking about it.”

 

“Then how on earth will your love story ever move forward? What happened to all your dreams of having a happily ever after? Do you even plan to get a happy ending anymore or did you already give up on it and plan to admire her from afar for the rest of your life? Because the way things are progressing, I don’t see any hope of you two ever being together.”

 

“Oh we’ll be together one day. Of that, I’m sure.” Brian said smiling softly, “The power of the true love that I feel towards her will surely bring her to me one day.”

 

“But how? How? How? How the hell will that ever happen when you’re not even ready to make a slightest move to make things progress even a little bit?” Kiara was at verge of frustration now and felt like banging her head on the table. But restrained herself from doing it as they were in an office party and for that reason like in any other office parties she was trying her best to “behave”!

 

“Love will find a way Kiara, It always does. Trust me.” Brian said with a saint-like expression and this time Kiara did bang her head on the table producing a loud sound not caring about the attention she drew on themselves in that process.

 

“Unnnnggggggh! You are impossible!” She scramed in frustration while keeping her head on the table. After a few moments she raised her head and composed herself taking a deep breath.

 

“Alright. It can’t be helped then.” She said with sheer determination on her eyes. Instantly Brian was alarmed as he could read her expression too well.

 

“What do you mean?” He asked with rapidly.

 

“It’s time to take matters on my own hand.” She replied stubbornly confirming his fear.

 

“No. NO! You will do no such thing! Kiara, listen to me, please, don’t do any…..”

 

“Well if I leave things to you, you’ll end up dying as an old single man. So I really don’t have a choice.” With that she left their table and headed towards the spot where heather was standing and chatting with some of their colleagues.

 

“Kiara! Wait! Kiara! Listen to me!” Brian tried to stop her desperately but it was too late and before he knew it she had already approached heather which made him froze on his spot.

 

Heather was laughing over something that one of their colleagues, Sara Wilson said when Kiara approached her.

 

“Hello, Heather.” Kiara greeted.

 

“Oh hello, Kiara! How are you doing?” Heather greeted back with a warm smile.

 

“I’m doing fine. Well, Do you have a moment? I need to talk to you about something and I need to do it now. So, can I go ahead?”

 

“Sure. Go ahead.”

 

“Well then. Here goes nothing.” With that Kiara lowered her body and suddenly she was sitting in one knee in front of Heather while she took Heathers right hand on hers. Everyone went silent and stared at them with wide eyes while Heather, wide eyed herself, gasped and said, “Kiara! What are you doing?”

 

Brian was also confused as hell himself! He certainly didn’t see that coming! Granted that Kiara was highly unpredictable and always does the weirdest things, but even so, nothing prepared him for the scene that he was witnessing right then.

 

“Don’t ask any questions. Just let me finish, okay?” Kiara replied to Heather. And then taking a deep breath she sincerely looked at her eyes and said, “Heather Julienne Brown…..”

 

 

Chapter 6

“Heather Julienne Brown,”

 

“You even know my middle name?” Heather interrupted with a surprised expression.

 

“Yes, I do but that’s not important. Just let me finish what I want to say, will you?” Kiara asked, already getting impatient. Of course, she knew her middle name, thanks to Brian’s obsession, Heathers middle name was the least unexpected thing that she knew about her.

 

Heather nodded to her last statement although it was evident that she was quite hesitant about the whole situation.

 

“Good.” She took a deep breath and stared directly at Heathers eyes.“So, Heather Julienne Brown, It’s been already three months since you entered my life and I can still remember the moment when I first saw you vividly because after that very moment my life has changed drastically. You have no idea what I’ve been going through since that moment, how you’ve changed everything of my life, how you have turned my whole world upside down, and I don’t think that I’ll ever find words enough
