一见钟情 Love You

That was a late October evening, the very first day that I ever saw you. Love at first site you may say. What a feelings. I knew right then that I will be spending rest of my life with you. I still remember the very first smile in your face, looking down to me from your balcony. WOW, how could I forget that?

That was the year 2003, my very first year in Dhaka University. Life was wonderful, lots of fun at the university and home, in the old town of Dhaka. Just came out of all male college. Got the freedom of my life. No restriction from home, I can come home whenever I like or do whatever I want to do. Just like a bird, no limit.

To be honest, until that ate October day, I did not a have any female friends. So you can forget about a girlfriend. I was very shy and always nervous when surrounded women. But that afternoon, a RED piece of thin cloth (Orna) just changed all that.

I was walking down the street, just enjoying a wonderful late afternoon. All of a sudden, a piece of cloth just dropped on me, covering my whole upper body. I got surprised and uncover myself. Look around me and then looked up. There you were standing on your first floor balcony and laughing at me. That was the first time I have ever seen someone that pretty.

I am sorry — you said with big smile in your face.

My “orna just dropped out, would you mind to hold on to it I am coming down.

No word out of my mouth. Is this really happening to me. Did she said that she is coming down.

I look around nervously. Should I just wait or should I leave. Where do I go. I see a little stair going from the street to the down stair of that house. I looked in by extending my head. Should I go in?

Before I decide I see you standing by the door. Just 5 feet away, with a great smile on your face.

Sorry for that, could I have my “Orna please — you said.

Sure, Sure, here it is — I replied with a very nervous voice.

I step up to her and hand over her “Orna.

Thanks, do you live around here? You asked.

Yes — I said.

Thanks again. I will see you again.

I nod my head with agreement.

That was my first conversation with you and for sure was not the last. My first love — I love you.

那是在十月下旬的一天傍晚，也就是我看见你的第一天。你可能就会在第一次见面的地方谈起爱情，不同凡响的爱情。我当时就知道我会和你一起共度余的。我还记得你从阳台上向下看我时第一次笑的样子。天哪，我怎么能够忘记？

那是2003那年，正是我在达卡大学上学的第一年。在达卡这个老城，学校和家都有很多有趣的事，生活是如此地美好。学校里都是男生，生活有了自由，没有了在家的限制，我可以想什么时候回家就回家，想做什么事就做什么事，就像一只小鸟，没有限制。

说实在话，那个十月底的那天之前，我连一个女朋友也没有，因此，关于女朋友的事情，你就不要想了。围着女人转，我总是紧张害羞。但是，那天下午，一块轻薄的红色布就改变了所有的一切。

我正走在大街上，欣赏着傍晚美景。突然，一块布掉在我身上。把我的上半身盖住了，把我吃了一惊，把布揭掉，打量下我，又抬头向上望了望， 看见你站在一层阳台上在朝我笑。那是我第一次看见这么漂亮的人。

抱歉——你说话时笑容很灿烂。

我的“布刚掉下，我下来取你不介意吧？

我没有说一句话，这事我的真的碰上了吗？她是在说她要下来吗？我神经兮兮地环顾下四方。我是应该等她还是马上走开？我向哪去啊？我发现有一段通向她们家楼下的窄楼梯，我伸伸头向里面探望了一下，我该进去吗？

就在我下定决心来看你的那一刻，你站在门口，离我仅五步之遥，我看见你笑容非常的灿烂迷人。

很抱歉把布掉在你身上了，能还给我吗？——你说。

当然，当然可以，就这个——我重复话时声音非常紧张。我迈到她跟前把布交给她。

谢谢，你住在这附近吗？你问道。

是的——我回答道。

再次感谢。那我会再次看见你的。

我点头称是。

那是我与你的第一次交流，当然并不是最后一次。我的初恋——我爱你。
