WAS IT YOUR LOVE? - Chapter 5:Are you in love?
She is not confident in herself.She was not beautiful.She thought nobody would love her for her appearance.In school life nobody pursued her.Her skin colour is dark and facial features also not attractive at all.She never used any make up.She believed in pure love.She was waiting for someone who would love her not her skin colour or face.But unfortunately in her school or college life nobody proposed her.She new if she use any make up ,she will be beautiful .But she wanted true love.So she remained far from any type of ornaments or make ups.
After meeting with Neil she felt that he is little bit interested in her.But she had no confidence.She wanted to persue him.But she never showed any false side of her.Both of them science teachers.So they had to discuss many matters.Gradually Neil become a good friend of her.But she could not accept Neil as a friend merely.She felt something far above friend for him.She couldn’t remain far from him.He was like a magnet to her.She always wanted to speak to him,help him in various ways.Neil also liked to talk to her.He started to visit her at her home in the evening whenever gets time.After 3 months she returned to her hostel but she left her heart with him.She never share her feelings to him but by his expression she assume that he also have feelings for her.The two years in hostel was like torture to her.Every day she dreamt him but he never visited or contacted her.After graduation she again got admission in a teachers training course.During this course she again contacted him and he started visiting her home almost daily .He never expressed his feeling directly to her but Zola fell in love with him deeply.”Zola I don’t know why ,but I can’t keep myself from visiting you everyday.”She smiled and lowered her gaze.She or Neil nobody could express their feelings.
“Don’t speak unnecessary things.Why am I going to love Neil?He is just my friend.”
“Oh my god!Zola!You are really in love.I never mentioned Neil”She gave victorious smile.
Zola bit her lower lip nervously.She didn’t know what to say.
“Zola have you confessed him?”
“No.I know he will reject me”With teary eyes she replied.
“If you don’t confess than how will you know he would accept you or not.Be positive Zola”
After thinking a moment Rose said,”Let me tell him about your feelings.He is a very good person.Don’t worry.”Zola could not sleep that night.”what will happen after he come to know my feelings?What if he would go far away from me?How can I live without him?”
At morning she took her breakfast and get ready to go Zen’s home.She is a good friend to her.She knows everything about her.As Zola got ready to go she heard familiar sounds in her drawing room.She turned to stone.Neil was discussing something happily with her mother.
“Zola where are you going?Please give him a cup of tea.”Neil also smiling at her.
“o…ok mother”.
“Zola where are you going ?To Rose place?I went there yesterday evening.She called me to say something.She told some interesting things about you.”
Shameless!!!!!!
“What did Rose said about my Zola?”her mother asked.
Zola nervously stared at him.He smiled at her.”I was just joking aunty.Don’t worry.”
Zola felt like her breathe has returned.She went to kitchen nervously.
