73 Spending some time with Parul

There could have been a lot of places we could go like shopping, taking her somewhere nice to eat, perhaps a picnic or even sightseeing but that way Parul and my progress won’t really improve much.

That way she would always have an idea that she was taken on a date and as a result, she will subconsciously guard against me.

Taking a girl out after admitting you liked her at first-sight..

Wouldn’t that mean you are just trying to rush things?

Therefore taking her fishing was a better idea, it was one of the rules of dating I learned. Once you have the opportunity to enter a girl’s room, look for things to find out her hobbies and take her out accordingly. For example – say you found a teddy bear…so take her to some amusement park and then play those games where you can win those stuff, if you found something like lots of books, take her to somewhere like a book-fair then you can even have the opportunity to drag her to lunch when you are tired, there are many situations you just have to adapt accordingly.

Hiding your agenda in the disguise of taking her out on something she likes will lower her guard automatically as her mind would be too occupied to think of other things.

After walking for some minutes we were finally out of the town.

“Hey, Parul?”

“The river on the edge of the city near hills seems the perfect place.”

“You must have been fishing there in the past, so can we find something good there?”

“Well it’s been a long time since I went there but there used to be lots of small fishes if I remembered correctly!”

Without wasting much time we were already on the river bank and got into the action.

“Hey let’s make things more interesting?”

“Let’s compete to see who will be able to catch more fish by evening, the winner can ask about anything from the loser.”

“Naaaah, you are clearly trying to trick me”, Parul spoke as she had seen through the conspiracy.

“No, you are overthinking. We can’t ask for anything indecent plus to tell you the truth I have only done fishing 2-3 times compared to you.”

I intentionally lowered my voice to speak more enticingly, “So you have a chance! Don’t you want to make me pay you some compensation for making you suffer? This is a perfect opportunity .”

Parul closed her eyes pondering over the pros and cons.

‘That’s right! Rose is already head over heels for him, there’s no way I can take my revenge. Even though he may be playing a trick, he is also right. If I miss the opportunity then I may not be able to have a chance to get even with him in the future!’

“Fine!”

“Don’t blame me for showing you no mercy!”

With her competitive side being ignited she quickly found a good position to sit and started using her fishing-rod.

‘Looks like the real fish has taken a bait’, I too followed her actions.

‘Hehe! Even though I have done fishing 1-2 times in this life….in my last life I have already done it countless times, there’s no way you can beat me. As for asking for nothing indecent… haha! As a dignified villain, we must be unscrupulous.’

An hour passed and we were both doing our own thing.

After another passed, I knew it was time to make things progress.

“Hey, it’s getting quite boring!”

“Miss Parul, can you tell me the qualities your future husband must have?”

Parul who was sitting at some distance from me paid no attention.

“Aah, it’s really my bad luck. It’s already 2 hours and I only caught 4-5 fishes.”

Hearing me, Parul’s face was filled with smiles.

‘Haha! This young lady has already caught 20 fishes, you villain’, she sneered inwardly.

‘Just half an hour more then it will be my victory.’

Seeing her face full of smiles, I knew her mood was uplifted.

‘Sure enough, the strategy works!’

‘Give the girls a feeling that they are winning and are in command. The more you indulge them the more they are being spoiled. But it doesn’t matter if the girl wins everything…because in the end, you won the girl. Haha!”

“Miss Parul, it’s so bad I think this river is unlucky. I am pretty sure we won’t gain anything much here.”

“Haha!”

“No, there’s still half an hour left. There is still half an hour left.”

“Oh you must have got lucky, it seems I am not really good at this sort of thing.”

I looked at my basket in which already 32 fish were caught.

‘Hehe, no matter how lucky you are, you can’t catch so many, right? I wonder how her face will be when the time is up!”

“Miss Parul, how about I tell you a story that will be perfect to pass time.”

“Do whatever you want!”

-she spoke uninterestedly.

“This story is about a boy and a girl who had some feelings for each other since childhood.”

“The boy always followed and took care of the girl, never let her suffer but the girl always paid no attention to him, she thought building a successful career, taking care of her parents, earning enough comes first..things like love, romance could be thought of when she had got everything else.”

“As a result, she took the boy’s feelings for granted but the boy still kept pursuing her.”

“Then one day, the girl told the boy if he waited every night under her house for one hour for 200 days she would marry him.”

“The boy waited under her house for 199 days but on the last day when he could get what he wanted he didn’t show up!”

After speaking I deliberately paused a little and sure enough, Parul opened her mouth.

“Why?”

“Why didn’t he visit her on the last day?”

“All he had to do was pass one more day and they could be together! Such a foolish boy.. the girl gave him an opportunity and he missed it!”

“Then what happened after?”

It was clear that Parul was already hooked on the story.

‘It’s true after all, girls are curious creatures.. if you manage to arouse their curiosity they will definitely become an active participant!’

Parul was already thinking of herself as the girl in the story waiting to know why the boy did not visit on the last day.
