There was something about this guy. She always wondered what it was. Was it those deep blue eyes or those dimples that kept her looking at him? Every time they cross each other, there is an intense feeling. A sort of feeling that she had never felt before. It left her wondering even more about everything.
Unlike the other egoistic guys who would say all sort of nasty things in front of a girl to make themselves feel better, he was nothing like that. He would be among them, but never behaved anything like them. And that made her curious about him.
It has been almost 2 years of their awkwardness without a single word of conversation, but she yearns for his attention whenever they are at the same location. She wouldn't bother about the other guys, because for her the only thing that mattered was that one mystery guy.
There were days where he would look right into her eyes and smile, not the normal sort of smile though. It was the type of half smile. It is something that she couldn't put into words to describe but that smile made a million caterpillars in her stomach turn into butterflies in that split moment. It was just beyond a normal moment for her.
But the next day, when she looks forward to another moment like that and in hopes that he would actually walk up to her to finally start a conversation, he decides to ignore her. As if she wasn't even there. It crushed her more than she realised but she still has a tiny hope that someday or hopefully before they head on separate journeys that he would give her a chance.
Till then, she will be waiting for more moments for her caterpillars to turn into butterflies.
Really lovely one. Short and sweet.
