A loud music played,
In the big concert hall,
In one corner of that room,
Stood a boy tall.

He watched the others dance,
He watched the others sway,
While he stood in that corner,
Just listening the dj play.

His feet tapped on floor,
He could feel the catchy rhythm,
Until he saw a girl,
Sitting quietly in this mayhem.

She sat by the counter,
Gobbling up her cake,
But that wasn't only it,
She had much more in her plate.

A long blue dress,
Tied by a red ribbon,
With long black hair,
Secured by a fancy pin.

She didn't bother the music,
Neither the dancing people,
She was busy with her food,
Pushing it in her stomach deeper.

She was so much like him,
Maybe not that shy,
She was the kind of girl,
He'd never like to see cry.

Warily, he approached her,
Fidgeting with his fingers,
On her radiant figure,
He let his eyes linger.

"Um..Hh...Hi."
He stuttered on his word,
While she was still busy,
Eating the rice with curd.

The girl was lost in food,
Yet she felt a voice,
And she still doesn't know,
Why she looked up from her rice.

"I..I just said hi,"
He said still hesitant,
While he stared in her eye,
She looked really confident.

She gave him a smile,
And a curt nod,
He loved in the way,
Up her eyebrow shot.

They asked him a question,
Asked him who he was,
But he searched for the words,
His heart beating fast.

You look so beautiful,
He wanted to tell her,
What's your lovely name?
He wanted to ask her.

But none of it came out,
Instead he took a chance,
He held out a hand,
"Would you like to dance?"

She looked at her plate,
Then at his hand,
Even if she desired,
She couldn't take his hand.

He got the situation,
Her fingers were all messy,
He cursed his own self,
To ask that question silly.

Red like a tomato,
Both their faces turned,
The boy turned around,
And just started to run...

And just started to run.

Who was this boy?
More importantly, who was this girl?
