First Sight Feel, the Strongest

Title: First Sight Feel, the Strongest

At the centre of the paths, he met his first. Perhaps it was meant to be. Never could he ever have met her, if not for the gentle knock the girl had with him when they both started treading from 2 opposite directions. The guy was concentrating on the book he was reading while the girl, eyes were on hand-held mirror and focused on doing her hair with the other hand. The knock came when both were at the intersection of the paths. The young man immediately apologised with the use of the japanese word "Sumimasen" as he looked into the girl's face. Unknowingly, they were locked in a short 5 seconds stare with one another. Realising the stare was too long, the girl gently replied, "it is alright" and tried to look for her hair-clip.

"Sorry, allow me," the young man offered the girl a helping hand. Simple as the job was to pick a fallen hair-clip from the ground. For the young man, he beared not the sight to have the girl making the slightest effort to bend and retrieve her item as she was tidying her hair.

He knew at once, she was not any girl. In his mind, he was struck - by a meteor of love. But why meteor? For all his life - 20years on earth, he has not fallen for anyone at all. Now that he found one, a potential one, it was rare.

"Thank you," the girl replied to his kind gesture. But before the girl could take a second step away from the spot where they met and conversed the first time, the young man probed a question, "Erm, may i know your name?" That effected the girl to make a 180degrees turn and answered, "Vel, Vel San". The next moment when the young man wanted to make short self-introduction, Vel had already left by saying "I need to rush. See you" and rushed off. For all the young man could say, in his mumbles, "I am Teht". Poor guy, there in the north-west direction, his love-at-first-sight girl left as he looked on.
