Wow!!!... I just found out that I have been on this platform for one whole year, how time flies. It was just like yesterday when I heard about this platform and I am already a year older.
This goes a long way to show that time waits for no one and we are the ones who are in the race to meet up with time in life. I would say I did not start posting on this platform the time I heard about it. To be frank, it took me about four months to understand how this platform works even though I am still in the process of learning the intricate things. If you ask me how my stay here has been, I will tell you that it has been both sweet and sour. Just hold on I will explain it all to you.
Sweet and Sour
When I say it has been Sweet and sour I mean every word of it because I believe that the only thing constant in life is change. In as much we can say that we are here because of the Passion we have for writing, I would also want us not to forget that what fuels that passion is the reward that we get from Rusty and other generous Tippers on this platform. Let me ask you this question and I believe you will be honest enough with your answer. How do you feel when you post your article and you end up not getting any tip from anyone and most especially from Rusty (Random Rewarder)? You know it is one thing to have the passion to write, it is another thing for the passion to be fuelled either the number of people that visit your article or the amount of tip you get. For me, the Sweet and Sour taste comes into play whenever I drop my article and I don’t get to see a good number of visitors on it and it gets worse if Mr Rusty decides not to visit, but then I have come to understand that that is how the system works.
On the other hand, I feel so sweet in fact, it is like butterflies in the belly when I see my article having a good number of visitors and of course the huge hands of tipping from Mr Rusty and every other generous heart. So if you feel as though you do not care about the tipping then I say Bravo! To you…
If you see me or my article please don’t forget to wish me happy birthday in course I am one year older on this platform.
Ok, enough of the one-year talks. Let me go straight into the major purpose of this article today. Looking at the title I bet you already know where it is headed to. Well, I must try my best to remember it all but I will try not to bore you with too much story. I know about one person who would want to come to the comment section to attack or laugh but if I catch you… you know yourself.
My First Kiss
Just as it is very normal and natural to have your first kiss with your childhood crush, that was how my story was because the girl in question was my very first childhood crush. The first point, I kissed my Crush. What does that tell you? To me, it was the best day of my life because she was a girl I truly had a crush on right from the first day I set my eyes on her. To be fair, she is not more beautiful than my current girl but she is very beautiful. I think I have just passed across a serious and important message and it is for only those who are meticulous with every line that will see the message therein.
The first day I saw her, I think I was in my junior secondary and it all happened very fast. Just like every new girl that comes into a new school, she was the talk of every gathering of boys and my click of friends was not left out. As the youngest child in my family, I learnt how to respect people even when I don’t have to because once my father gets a report of me insulting anybody, he would want to know what may have prompted my actions, he will flog me very well. This training made me learn how to talk less so that I don’t get to say something which the other person might take to be an insult. So as the other boys were talking or should I say gossiping about her, I was just quiet but in my mind, I wanted to tell her a million and one thing about how I would her to be my friend. To cut the long story short, I was opportune to have a one on one encounter with her just as school dismissed. It was a kind of culture for me to always stay back at school as a way to read through the days notes and lessons because once I get back home, my mum will take my note and ask me questions about the things we learnt on that particular day, so for me not to receive a hot flogging from my dad courtesy of my mum, I began to spend an extra hour in school just to go through all that was done on that day.
For me, I did not know that someone was taking notice of how others will be hurrying to leave the class while I will be bringing out books like someone who does not want to go home. In one of the days I stayed back, I did not know that my crush whom I saw when she left with her bag just like every other person did not go home rather what she did was to leave the class in a way to peep through the window just to know what I usually do in the class when others have gone. As mi was reading, I felt unease as if someone was just looking at me so I had to turn back only for me to catch Jennifer my crush looking at me through the window. At first, I was afraid but when I noticed that she was not going to leave the window, I had to ask her to come and join me and the rest became history.
Wait, don’t tell me you are eager to hear how I made fool of myself in front of my crush. I will tell you if you want to know. When I asked her to come into the class and join me, I thought t had the courage but the moment she walked into the class and stood beside me, her beauty overshadowed my courage and I lost hold of myself. Can you imagine that she noticed that I was shy even to look at her face? It was just one hell of a crazy experience I had that day. She asked me why I was still in the class and as I was explaining myself to her, she cut me short and said; “Vincent, why are you shy?” That question threw me off balance that I could not say a word and as I was just trying to recollect myself in other to answer her question that was when it all happened. I think she noticed that I have never kissed or gotten so close with any girl before, so she held my jaw and placed her lips on mine and kissed me like a pro.
Goosebumps ran through my entire body it was like I was on fire in the middle of an ocean. I did not know what to say or do because she was just looking straight into my eyes and that was when she said; “I want you to be my friend”. She said that and gave me another kiss on the lips but this time it was quick. I did not say a single word as she stood up to leave the class, that was when my senses came back and I held her hand and asked her why she kissed me. She looked at me for some time and said; “you are not like all the other boys in this class and if you don’t know, every girl in this class wants to be your girlfriend”. That was when it dawned on me that I was not just the only one crushing rather she was also crushing on me too. So that is the story of my first kiss.
