The Character

Dear Blog,

This happens every time I read a novel. Authority, command, charm, wit, power, money, fame and charisma. Boom! I am in love! I had to pen this down.

So, I am reading this novel Morningstar by one Erin Pizzey. The male protagonist is named Michael Morningstar and he is a super rich business tycoon with a mysterious air about him. As I passed by the pages, I couldn't stop reacting to every time he was mentioned in any of the paragraphs. I became obsessed and tried to lap up whatever small bit it said about him.

Hence, here I am, writing about him. It's a coincidence, there have been a lot of Michaels in my fictional life. So, dedicated to all of them.

He stared at me through the black and white
He tweaked his face and made his eyes smile
I could sense an aura pushing back at me
The presence overpowering and I could feel it was he
For he did this to me every time I opened the door
To welcome him, greet him, love him and more
I let out a sigh and my lips danced with joy
They couldn't withhold a smile, oh my!
I wish with all my heart the feeling doesn't stop with time
As I turned the pages of the book held in hands of mine
Here's yet another Michael enveloping me with his words
Falling in love with a character; confused if it's a boon or a curse!

There is going to be more soon. Ciao!

Love,
N.

The First Meeting

Hey Bee,

Romantic movies are a thing, aren't they? I totally adore watching them. Obviously I need my share of towels around me, in case I spill my tears onto the bed. Not the point though.

One of my favourite all timers is 'If Only', a very strong and a powerful ground shattering movie. I could watch it any number of times and still go through all the emotions like I would have the very first time.

Romance and love awaken something deep inside of me. It touches my soul and rips my heart apart. Feeling the character has always had a special place and I am not ready to trade it for anything in the world.

So I just had watched this another, very beautiful movie, 'Letters to Juliet' and I had to write this one. It's fresh and pure and has all the nuances of a new love blossoming.

I won't say much and will let you revel in the words below.

I got a message and I saw it was him
I turned the screen off, smiled on a whim
Pushing my fingers on the keyboard in front
I had to finish work, send mails and be done
For I was already late to meet him after long
Put on my new dress and put some make up on
Heart's pace hastened, it shot up like a volleyball
I swallowed and kept it in check, I made it stall
Shutting down the system I grabbed my phone and keys
Furiously typing a message and rushing down was me
Dumping the bag in the storage I inserted the key in the slot
I pressed the start button panting for air and feeling oh so hot
Pushing the speedometer to a mild 60
I thought of his touch, warm and hearty
As I reached the parking lot of the mall
I felt my pocket vibrate, it probably was his call
Securing a place for my bike, I pulled down the side stand
I reached for my cellphone, brushing the hair off my face with my hand
Correcting my make up in the mirror, I dashed to the security check in
I stepped into the security room, opened my bag, to the light so dim
Going up the escalator I could hear my heart pumping so fast
I was going to meet him alone, at last
As I neared the store, I heard my name being called
He was looking dapper in a jacket, smiles and all
A big grin lit my face, to hell with all the make up
Blood rose to my cheeks, blushing was I, I felt his arms circle around me, we were in a big bear hug!

I hope you liked it. Cheers :)

Love,
N
