I always do things or talk stuff through which I end up surprising my own self.
It was an unusual day at college (PSG CAS) as I was there and also there was a Commerce Department function happening on the same day. As usual there were a bunch of junior girls stationed at the GRD Auditorium entrance to greet the people who came to attend what ever was going on. As I was approaching the entrance, I noticed the table they stood behind had a plate full of roses for creating a pleasant ambience. I wanted to keep myself occupied through what could be a really boring event today and decided to snatch a rose from that plate and just give it to some random junior girl. That's the plan - “Mission Awkward Rose”. But I was so bad at snatching and I ended up asking this sweet little girl behind that table to lend me one of the flowers explaining my plan. Till date I am not sure if she gave me a dirty look, but I managed to pick a flower from there. The next two to three hours I spent loitering around the auditorium, as the (whatever) event kept proceeding, with the stem planted into my trouser pocket and the flower popping out. I guess the flower was more anxious to see me get wacked by some girl.
But that was very less time, 2 to 3 hours was just not enough to find one girl to whom I wanted to give that rose for no reason and display an awkward smile.... So just when I was leaving the place, I bumped into the same little girl from whom I had borrowed (or may be she threw it at my face) the rose. What happened next is something I took a really long time (until today-7 years later) to realize that I had actually accomplished my “Mission Awkward Rose”.
I thankfully returned the rose to the sweet little girl and said “I couldn't really find anyone who sparked me to offer this rose.. so here you go.. I am returning it to you.” And that , ladies and gentlemen, is how I met her.. Annie Jenifer. Least did I know that she is the one I would be marrying 7 years later when I gave her the rose without realizing that she was my plan the whole time.
