I know that sounds pretty cliche, and a lot of couples might see their first encoutner as something special. So let me tell you our story and see for yourself.
All started around...hm, Winter 2002/2003 when I was dating one of Angels female friends. I didnt know Angel at that time, and after some dates both Angels friend and me realized we had few in common and went our seperate ways.
But somehow she must have talked to Angel and given her some contact informations about me, because some days later while I was in an online chatroom I used regularly at this time, she wrote me some messages. In hindsight Angel told me that she did it because she was somehow bored at that time, but based on how things turned out later, I'm glad she was bored.
So we wrote with each other for some days, and it was fun. Finally we exchanged our cell phone numbers and sent each other a picture to see what the other actually looks like. I also found out that she had a boyfriend at that time, so there was little chance for me to come closer to her, and our contact died down. Sometimes we sent an SMS or two, to see if the other one was still fine, but nothing special.
This went on until August 2006. It was a warm and sunny late summer day, with no clouds in a steel-blue sky. I had nothing special to do on this day and was at home when I received a message from her on my cell phone.
"Do you want to meet me?"
I was pretty surprised she asked me that. I knew she still had her boyfriend and our contact was down to some SMS from time to time. But hey, a cute girl wanted to see me, so I decided to smarten up and meet her.
We agreed to meet each other at the main railway station of the near city which was a 15 minute ride for each of us. I was there in time but couldn't find her, so I called her to find out where she was. It was the first time I heard her voice. Like I mentioned in the previous post, she has a defect on her vocal chords, but I didn't know that at that time, so you can imagine my surprise when she answered the phone. My thoughts were like "Wait a minute...did I call the right number? "Is this her grandma at the phone?" This catched me pretty off-guard, and made me even more eager to see her.
I finally found her and...well, she was a very pretty sight. She stood there with her long blond hair, slightly more than 10 inches smaller than me, wearing a jeans and a black top through which you could see her back and her arms. She gave me a timid smile and we walked to a cafe near by, where we talked for maybe two hours. I still had in mind that she had a boyfriend back then, and had no real intention to interfere in this relationship, but its Angel's opinion that I flirted with her pretty much. She also told me later that when I took her hand in mine in that cafe for the first time it was like an electric shock for her (the good way of course)
We went to two other locations afterwards, ate something at a Pizza Hut and spent some time in the warm sunlight. We were on very good terms with each other and had a lot to talk about. After several very nice hours it was late evening, and both of us had to go home. So we went to the platform where the train towards my hometown was already waiting. I think we both didn't really want to leave the other one at that point, but it was no use.
We were standing there, beside the train, in the last rays of the sun, neither of us saying a single word. Finally Angel smiled at me, wrapped her arms around my neck and gave me a hug.
And then it happened.
I don't know why I did it, maybe because I didn't want to let her go, but I hugged her more tightly and lifted her up. I thought she would say something like "Hey hey, what are you doing" or something similar, but instead of that, she suddenly wrapped her legs around my waist, hugged me even more intensely and whispered in my ear...
"You are great!"
Nothing more than just these three words.
Next thing I know is that I was standing inside the train already driving, having a blissful smile on my face and several people around me which had seen us giving me some weird grins. Imagine my face like that:
And that was the end of one of the most wonderful days of my life. This day marked the beginning of our relationship.
Rest of the story shall follow during the upcoming days.
