The Stranger I Like (1.5)
Orison
– A sacred prayer
Day by day, I’ve come to know him a little more, and it feels so wonderful. At first, it was just his glance, his aura, the way he carried himself that drew me in. But now, learning about his likes and dislikes, discovering our shared interests—it makes him even more special to me. With every little thing I learn, I feel more assured about my choice.
He’s such a sweet person—not just because of how he looks but because of the depth of his heart and mind. He’s a rare blend of intelligence and kindness, someone who can only be described as a true gentleman. He’s thoughtful, sincere, and tender-hearted. I often find myself wondering how beautifully his parents must have raised him to become the person he is.
I admire him so much that I’ve memorized every post and highlight on his profile, as if they’re tiny treasures meant just for me. On days when I feel low, revisiting his profile feels like a warm hug, filling me with energy and comfort. His smile—it has a way of lifting my spirits, like a bright ray of sunshine breaking through a cloudy sky.
And then, there’s his voice. We haven’t talked on call But, he sent me his voice notes, and I can’t put into words how special it felt. His voice is so soft, so soothing, like a gentle lullaby on a restless night. It’s the kind of voice that stays with you, even in silence. Now, whenever he texts, I can almost hear his tone in my head, and it adds so much meaning to every word.
He does make me happy. His simple actions feel so meaningful to me. Once, I texted him something but then unsent it because I felt like I might be overdoing it. You know, like asking too many questions in my eagerness to know him better. It made me wonder if I was coming across as desperate or if he’d think I was overstepping. But to my surprise, he noticed that I’d unsent the message and even asked me about it. For him, it might’ve been just a small, casual thing, but for me, it meant so much.
Why does he make me feel this way? Honestly, even I don’t know. All I know is that I like him so much—more than I can put into words. Whenever he posts a story, I can’t stop myself from looking at his smile. That song, "Sab Dhundla Dhundla Lage, Tujhpe hi Focus Hai, "—that’s exactly what it feels like for me. Sometimes, I even ask my heart, "Why are you so drawn to him?" But my heart replies,"This isn't my doing —it's the brain flooding you with all those hormones for him".
Honestly, I can’t explain why I feel so happy every time I get his text. It’s like his words carry a magic that I can’t resist. I’m so content with these little moments, but the thought of losing him—even when he isn’t truly mine yet—feels unbearable. Still, I have this unshakable belief that someday, things will work out, if not today, then maybe tomorrow.
People might think I’m praising him with the hope of dating him, but that’s far from the truth. In fact, I’ve never thought of dating him because I’m not sure about relationships these days. I’ve seen couples who spent years together fall apart and the thought of losing someone like him scares me. To me, his presence matters more than any romantic label. I would rather be his friend—a constant in his life—than risk losing him by proposing something more.
I don’t know what he thinks of me, and honestly, knowing someone for just a short time isn’t enough to understand them completely. But all I can do is pray that this bond of ours grows stronger with time. I hope we become the kind of friends who share every corner of their lives with each other. And if, by some twist of fate, he ever develops feelings for me, it would be a bonus—an unexpected gift. I can’t imagine how happy I’d be to have someone like him by my side.
I hold onto my whispered prayers and silent hopes, wishing that someday, he’ll see the light I see in him. He already feels like the melody to my favorite song, the calm in my chaos, the answer to questions I didn’t know I was asking. Even if I never get to share these thoughts with him, the happiness he brings to my life is enough.
All I wish is for this connection to grow, for this thread of understanding to weave itself into something unbreakable. If he brings so much joy to my world now, I can only imagine the beauty his friendship would bring into my life in the days to come.
