I am a Realist. However, I am also A Dreamer. And always have been.
The problem with being a realist is that, by nature, I find it mandatory to explain all events that occur, Logically.
I do not believe in destiny, I believe our decisions cumulatively lead to our fate.
But now, for what is probably the first time ever. I face something that i cannot seem to come up with an explanation for. Not even a far-fetched and completely outrageous one.
I simply cannot understand how or WHY two people, who've never met before, never spoken, texted or IM'd before and are 6676 miles apart would strike up a conversation. But it happened.
And her we are Twelve days later. And it feels like we've known each other since 1853.
There have been days when 10 hours had passed and we both felt like not more than 45 minutes had gone by.
There have been NO moments of awkward silence. We've always had something to talk about.
We've had serious discussions, laughed at each other's silly habits, smiled just because the moment called for it. We've argued to the point where one of us - Usually ME, has had to give up because there simply wasn't any winning.
[ But then again,, maybe i just let her win ;) ]
Now, since I've never believed in destiny or chance or things like that it is hard for me to swallow the fact that there is NO logical Explanation for this girl simply walking into my life. None whatsoever. And that too at the Exact moment I decide that I need someone I can talk to, about anything and everything. Someone I can trust to be my backup. And She does all that. She stands up for me, even against my own stupidity.
I'll tell you this. I know, from experience, that everything that's good, has an ending.
And everything great will have a sad ending. This is beyond that. And when it ends, which it will, there will be tears
But, I've decided, that instead of dreading what might happen in the future I'm just going to take it as it comes.
because This may last another 60 years or another 60 seconds.
At this point I must explain that though it seems like it, I AM NOT in love with this girl.
And she is not, and never will be my "sister".
Those of you who think A boy n a girl can only be good friends if they're brother and sister, Should be Shot. TWICE*.
She is a friend, And I hate to admit it - a Darn good one! :P
She's hard on the outside but warm n gooey on the inside. She's usually the quiet one but can party till past 4 am. She's quick-witted and smart though she may not seem it. ;)
She's one of those, who could make a 14-hour flight seem like a walk in the park. She could also make a walk in the park seem like a 14-hour flight, Followed by a bus ride in Mumbai traffic. :P
All in all, she is Awesome fun and Amazing company. She is Definitely the only person I know who's stayed up till 6am talking, to a guy she's knows for hardly 3 days, about how she hates uncooked onions and complaining that can openers suck because they don't open canned pineapple.
Now there are probably some of you (probably guys) reading this, sitting there thinking, "Oh cool. Nice, I bet she's hot. And since she's only hard on the outside, A little sweet talking should do the trick"
I'll tell you what.
You go ahead and try every cheesy line in the book.
And SUPPOSE one of them works, Remember this, She's armed. That too with an Axe. And its sharper than the pointy end of a hypodermic needle. So unless you want a couple of "inches" missing, Backoff.
For those of you who do not know what Andromeda is.
Andromeda is, in size the Largest Galaxy in the Local group of galaxies.
also, unlike most other galaxies in our universe, Andromeda is heading TOWARDS our own Galaxy, The Milky Way.
Popular theory is that in about 4.5 Billion years Andromeda and The Milky Way will collide. the only problem is than no one knows what happens next. They may both merge to form a larger galaxy. One may Perish while the other remains. Or, they may both be destroyed.
D. and I are like that. Two different galaxies, very similar in many ways, but distinct in critical a few, Colliding. Its one of those times in our lives when you have no idea what's going to happen. It's both Exciting and Terrifying at the same time.
Now, When two galaxies collide, you don't go around poking them with a stick, and asking stupid questions, Like some Idiots I know. You stand back, try n keep your jaws from dropping and watch. Quietly. And just MAYBE, you get to see the most Spectacular sight in the known universe.
