Dear friends i will share with u today another "never forgotten" moment, a moment that will remain in my mind for as long as i will live.
It was an early morning, 18 october 2007. I was going to work. My work mate was late, as usual so i decided to take bus. As the bus stopped, i couldnt help but notice a man, around 37 with long hair, talking on the phone. I took a sit and started talking on the phone but looking at him from time to time.
Sometimes our eyes were crossing but just for few seconds coz no one was daring to watch more.
He also talked on the phone all the time.
At some point i realised that i have to get down.
The man went near the door of the bus, sign that he will also get down. And i couldnt help but thinking that "what wonderful thing it would be if he gets down and helps me also to get down".
The bus stopped! The man got down and without even looking behind him, where I was, he raises his hand to help me get down.
In the moment i gave my hand to him it was like ........like it was ment to be this way, like i knew him for a life time.
He kept holding my hand as we crossed the street and said to me while walking and looking in front "Lets say i would define this gesture by the verb "to like".I like you and i would like to see you again". I was looking into his eyes and thinking that i have never ever seen such beautiful green eyes gazing at me. I was all blushing. I gave him my phone number....
I still have his phone number in my agenda. I will keep it there and it will remind me always of the moment i gave my hand to a complete stranger and i felt safe, so safe as i never felt before, as the whole world was built for that single moment when our hands touched.
He gave me his hand to help me get down with such a certain thought that i will accept, as he knew me for a life time.
Everytime i pass through that place i remember this moment and i gently smile. It is one of the moments that will never be forgotten. It is one of the small things that makes life so wonderful...
HE NEVER CALLED BACK! I never saw him again after that moment but maybe if i would have seen him and know him closely his "gentleman-like manor" would have disappoint me. In this way, i am left with one of the most precious memories when i felt like a lady from Jane Austen's novels!!!
