A Trapped Naive Girl

A Naive and fragile Girl

Ibrahim’s P.O.V

Mathew called him again and again but he is in deep thinking,’’ Ibrahim, Ibrahim, Ibrahim, Ibrahim,”

Ibrahim,’’ Sorry Math I was thinking something.”

Mathew,” I just want to know if we have received all articles from a student from my old school.”

Ibrahim,’’ No, I have received only one from Elsa. She has written it marvelously.”

Mathew,’’ Elsa?  You sound like, you know her from years.”

Ibrahim,” It feels like that.”

Mathew,” She is a naive girl, don’t you dare to involve her in your stupid love affair game.”

Ibrahim,” Don’t worry; I am not even planning to do anything like that.”

Mathew,” Good for you.”

It is normal for Mathew to get afraid and worried for Elsa as on first place he does not like Ibrahim because of his loud personality and also he has seen Ibrahim used to talk with many other girls on phone for hours.  Ibrahim has many girlfriends.

He has a good childhood, but as he started his Job, his father became strict with him suddenly. He was distanced from family. It has been a few days since he came to this small city, he doesn’t like it but he is enjoying work here. Though his image was created as a playboy, he really wants to marry shelly his school mate.  But right now he felt something different when he was talking to Elsa. Something like connected to him for years. Elsa lived her whole life in this city but he came when she left, so there is no chance he knows her but why he is feeling so connected to her? He also checked her profile; she has just created her f*******: account. She looks so innocent in her profile picture. She looks so naive and fragile.  She is not a beauty that catches everyone’s attention but people just naturally gravitate towards her. And while thinking about her he did something he never did before, he pocked her on f*******:. Girls approach him and he never approaches anybody. But just now he is poking a young girl, probably he is out of his mind. He added her as a friend on f*******:. It took huge courage to him to send her friend request what if she would reject his friend request he was nervous his heart was beating fast. Two days have passed, she has neither accepted nor rejected his friend request. He was refreshing his feed, again and again, to get a notification, if she has accepted his friend request. He put his phone down with hopelessness. He got a notification ring, suddenly he picked his phone to check if Elsa has received his friend request or not but it was not a f*******: notification, it is a text from Shelly. She is asking if he had his lunch or not. They don’t talk much in the day time just a few texts get the exchange. He replied yes to her though he was not feeling any appetite so he did not had lunch, Shelly would get worried and ask thousands of questions so better he says he had lunch. He got irritated with different notification, as the notification, he was waiting for is not popping up, so he put his phone on silent mode ad thought to indulge himself in work so that he would not think about Elsa again and again. He knew he does not love Shelly, It’s just she is a good girl, a girl who can adjust in his family very well. He wants to marry her because he thought both are compatible. But now he was restless, he had a different type of feelings. With these thoughts, he started his work and soon forgets to check his phone again and again. In the evening when he checked his phone, his heart again started beating fast. He could not believe what he was seeing on his phone; Elsa has accepted his friend request. Same time he was angry at himself, she has accepted his friend request long ago but he has not checked his phone. He opened his f*******: and messaged her.

Ibrahim,” Hey! I thought you would not accept my friend request, you took too long. Were you making a decision about whether to accept my friend's request or not?”

Elsa replied immediately,” No, I don’t use f*******: much, and also I was not expecting your friend request.” She explained

Ibrahim took a breath of relief,’’ ohh great, so you are really busy in your studies.”

Elsa,’’ Yes! I have a big dream of becoming a good academician and provide good and qualitative education in my city.”

And like this, they have talked the whole night on f*******:. Both of them were not feeling like they were talking the first time, it seems they knew each other for years.  Ibrahim told him how much he wants to marry Shelly and raise his own family with love and care, unlike his father. Elsa also told him about his dreams and future plans. It was a pleasant night for both but both of them were unaware of the fact that they both are attracted to each other. They shared more than normal people do when they talk the first time, their dream, their fear, and their funny moments. Ibrahim had lot to tell which Elsa was reading his stories in messages patently. Elsa lived a very simple life, she always wanted to travel and she also wants to live in different cities, and Ibrahim did that so it excited Elsa so much. Though she loves her family a lot but she wants to own a house, where she can do anything she wants a family member visit her from time to time but she knew this can happen only in her imagination, her parents her too protective. But she is happy for Ibrahim that he is doing whatever he likes. And she also gave him blessings to get married Shelly soon in the message. With her blessing, she sends him a good night message because she was feeling an unknown pain in her heart. She knows, she should not feel bad about Ibrahim wanting to marry someone else. She just met him, how can she expect him to love her. Love is a strange feeling. Ibrahim caused her so many things on the same day thrill, excitement, love, joy, happiness, and pain. With these thoughts, she slept when she even does not know.
