the best feeling

her laugh broke the silence, as i was staring blankly at the silver screen. aware that a film was rolling, casting its light on to the wide hanging curtain, but it seemed to be exactly that. a light flashing on to the curtain. i just had no idea what the film was about. still mesmerized at what has happened, that, by fate or slight stroke of luck, i was with her, seated beside her, trying to keep calm, appearing to pay attention to the movie when all all i kept doing really was the opposite. I was surprised she'd say yes, that we'd watch a movie with her two best friends. that her friends backed out the last minute was beyond me. answered prayer or realized wishful thinking, the timing couldn't be more perfect. the movie was about two people fighting for their love or so what i surmised from the title. i couldn't help but chuckle looking back. i was that boy who for the first time had a date, well, not a date-date but a trip to the movie, with a lady i had embarassing crush on and so dumbstruck to act normally and just sitting there head towards the movie screen but eyes wandering on its side to catch but a glimpse of her watching intently, lovely really, that cheesy movie while i was just there sitting silently, dumbfoundedly, still grasping what was happening. then her laugh broke the silence, and I was in love.
