It was 2008 and it was half way through the year. This was the year i took my first steps towards independence, the year i started taking public transport. I'd taken the same route for around 150 something days and i knew it like the back of my hand. - I know it even better now that i've been taking it for like 600 something days now :D - From all the experience i got from taking the public transport system for so long, i knew that at times, or should i say, ALL THE TIME. The peak hour buses are EXTREMELY packed. Especially the ones right after school finishes...
So one day, i decided to be rebel and not get on the early bus and catch the next one which would have significantly less people on it. Once i did it... I was kinda scared that my parents would crack it at me for getting home "late". Back in those days i got home at around 4, these days it's around 5 xD :D
The decision to not get on that bus was the best decision, WAIT, one of the best decisions i've made in my life.
So there i was watching the bus go off into the distance, when suddenly a train arrives at Hallam station - which was were i used to catch my bus from to get home - so the boom gates come down and the train arrives. A few minutes later the train leaves and a tonne of people come walking down from the platform to my bus stop.
I watched the people come down because i had nothing else better to do... After all the people came down. I just blankly stared into the space where they all used to be and something caught my eye. A Sacred Heart girl walking down there by herself, no friends, no family, no nothing. At the time i was thinking that she was the cutest girl i'd ever seen x) She had blonde streaks in her hair and how her hair was done... OMG... It looked great!! Varsha had that hair style once... I told her she looked nice :D - Varsha that is, and yea... When Varsha had that hair style she reminded me of her... - I don't really know how to describe it but yea... I'll leave it to your imagination xP
So she walked down over to my stop and went towards the seat i was sitting on, our eyes met and she smiled as she sat down right next to me. I get goosebumps just reflecting back on that smile... And there we have it, first contact.
I remember it like it was yesterday :') But i'll leave it at this for now :P I'm gonna split the story into three parts. The first one was the one i just did, which was to just set the scene for what happens next, which is me first meeting her - LOL i'm making this sound epic (H) :D - the next one will be getting together and other assorted things along those lines, lastly will be how it all came to an end...
Tune in some other time to read the 2nd part. IDK when i'll do it... Just when ever. All you'll need to do is keep checking up on the blog to see if it's up xP
