STORY BEGINS
Stalker to lover
I am Amelia heart. I am an ordinary high school girl.When I was young I stayed with my happy family
Slowly time passed by and we stopped spending time together. I was in depression because of my parent's separation after a silly argument and at that time I needed carrier related guidance. I always seemed to be sad and lonely. On seeing my condition, my friend suggested me to chill and take break from studies and suggested me some artists songs to listen. She said it will refresh me. In particular, I liked an artist's songs which somehow motivated me to move on with life.
The artist was one of the popular idol. He was Joe mist. I heard about him from my friends that he is so handsome, charming and blah-blah.....
I never thought I will fall for him too.
I wanted to know more about him . So, I decided to do some research on him. I collected every single information that I can get of him, and it made me feel good, and it became obsession.
Eventually, I ended up being a stalker. I didn't realize that I was invading someone's privacy.
I stopped going to college for following him, and I bought every single concert tickets of him.
One day my very best friends Aafu, Zeba and Nihami came to visit me. They wanted to know why I wasn't coming to college.
I told them what I was doing and going through. They decided to help me. They gave me advice and I too realized that I was doing wrong. I was truly thankful to my dear friends and family always looking out for me.
I stopped stalking him. Furthermore, I was ashamed of myself.
I started to move on with my life. I didn't stop listening to his songs, but I tried to limit it so that I can concentrate on my studies.
That's how I created my boundary from stalker to normal admirer and a fan of his fantastic works.
My normal student life started again.
NOW THE INTERESTING PART OF THE STORY COMES IN -
On 25th August 2020
When I was on my way to the fresher's party of my college, someone bumped at me.
He was tall. He was wearing a mask and a hat so that no one could recognize him, I guess.
Furthermore, he was scared and was running from a group of people following him.
I looked at him carefully. Oh my God!!!
He is Joe. (my reaction at that time)
"Are you okay?" he asked.
My inner voice, "I was fine until now but not anymore".
" Are you okay?". He asked again.
"I am totally fine". I replied.
He started to run again.
I happen to understand what was going on. I grabbed his hands and pulled him inside the nearby convenience store.
We hid there for almost an hour. When I noticed it was clear, I gave him a signal to call his manager. I didn't understand what was he doing there without any security.
He thanked me for saving him, and we talked a lot. I was having mixed feelings. I was happy that I could help him and meet him in person. But I didn't expect that.
We talked about each other and how he hates when people sometimes treat him like an object and how he hates when people stalk him everywhere, and I became miserable and wanted to apologize. We exchanged our social media account, and I was shocked for days that we actually became friends.
We talked like normal friends for days after that. Furthermore, we went for dinner with my friend Aafrin and Joe's friends. I was afraid if he knew someday that I was his stalker too, and I did something which he hates the most.
This vary thought started to ate me.
I was happy with him and scared at the same time. I knew my boundaries, but somehow it was opposite for him.
" When I am with you, I feel like I am the happiest person in the world "he said to me.
In his work offs, he would come to my house. We would play, watch movies. I invite my friends and he too.
And what I was most scared of happened. I had fallen in love with him, and I might start doing the same obsessive things again.
So, I started separating myself from him, I stopped replying to his text so that I can forget him because I knew it was never gonna happen.
TWO MONTHS LATER…
THERE WAS A KNOCK ON THE DOOR ..
When I opened the door, I was shocked to see Joe standing with a bouquet.
He pushed me inside and locked the door.
" What are you doing here?". I asked.
" Why are you ignoring me? I tried to call you so many times, " he replied with a question.
I didn't want to answer that question. I asked him to leave. He wasn't leaving . So, the only thing left for me was to leave the room.
I ran outside the room. He grabbed me and told me that he is not going to hurt me and I should listen to him first. He first apologized to me for grabbing like that.
I stopped resisting and told him everything. He was in total shock.
"I knew it, look at you, that's why I didn't want to tell you ". I said and left the room.
He followed and stopped me.
He told me" ok you are not like that anymore. You realised your mistake, that's enough for me.".
" How do you know I am not the same person anymore," I asked him.
"Because I love you… I wanted to tell that I have fallen in love with you." he confessed to me.
I was about to cry I knew it's wrong I insisted him to leave. Furthermore, I knew myself better than anyone else. I did something wrong, and that thought was enough for me to stay away from him.
Even though he was so busy. He would text me daily, and I would ignore it. It was hard to tell if I really liked him, or it was my old behavior.
I missed the time we spent together, and I couldn't help myself and I started drinking.
Then...
ON 2nd JANUARY 2021
I was coming back from a shop after buying some groceries.
I bumped into someone. He was Joe and this time he hugged me and told me" I missed you. I missed you Ame .. I love you. "
I started crying. " I love you too.. And promise me you will not tolerate any misbehavior from me"
He said," I promise… I won't let you do anything wrong to me… The same goes for me too. I will always love and respect you. ".
We kissed each other and I understood that I can't live without him. That was our happy ending.
THE END
