The Girl's History (not Story)

She hated sarees. they exposed so much. and her sister made her wear it so low, it would have showed her bellybutton had it been transparent which it luckily was not. but it ws her sister's wedding.

well atleast he'd be there. the evening would be bearable. he was her best friend and her longtime crush, not that she'd ever let him know. it would ruin things because he did not love her. but sometimes she could swear.......

he was here. she could hear him calling her. she went to see him.

the first thing his eyes fell on was her waist that was on show.but he quickly turned his eyes away. but she saw him staring at whatever belly she exposed all through the evening. well the marriage rituals were underway and thre was nothing much she could do because her other sister liked doing all the arrangements.

she thought abou how he seemed to be staring at her waist. she wished he wouldn't. that would ruin all chances of his ever loving her.

her stomach was not flat. she had a bit of a belly and she thought it was like a ball. she hated her navel which was too big.

she sighed and moved aside her saree pallu and looked at her belly. it really was big. altho she wasn't fat at all.she was in her room all alone and everyone was downstairs busy with wedding. him too.

but she was wrong. she saw him looking at her through the mirror his eyes on her exposed belly. she was shocked. he hadn't properly closed the door. she let the pallu go in shock and he jumped and looked at her. she still hadn't turned to face him.
but he didn't go. he slowly came into the room shuting the door behind him. she felt paralysed as he came nearer. he looked at her reflection and slowly looking into her eyes he moved her saree aside to xpose her belly. they both simultaneously looked at her bely in the mirror.

she should hve stopped him. but she couldn't.

then he looked into her eyes and said,"thats beautiful". he put his hand on her belly right over where her navel was. his big hand coverd the bulge of her belly. he kissed her and sid i have always love you.

now she pushed him away. she believed him. but how could he think her belly is beautiful. she told him.

he knelt in front of her and pushed her pallu securing it. and he said, it is. i is just like a bellydancer's belly should be. and you shouldn't be shy. i love your bely. and your navel is lovely.

saying so he kissed her navel..she closed her eyes in enjoyment...........
