Funny how things take an unexpected turn, I just find it really amusing when other people get into my web and start leaving their marks without any qualms—without me wanting them to. But heck, I do appreciate it. Strangers are almost always welcome to get entangled in my already messed up life. J
‘Strangers’—S-T-R-A-N-G-E-R-S—people who pop out of nowhere to become a part of my existence…people who could in one way or another enrich my life in all ways imaginable. J But what happens if one of these ‘passers by’ happens to change the course of my life forever? What if this ‘trespasser’ does not intend to just ‘pass by’ but become a permanent fixture? Or worse, dislodge somebody else’s position in my life?
For the life of me, I could no longer remember how Captain Hook found his way to my Never Never Land. As per his rather ‘pornographic’ memory—we got to text each other when he accidentally got hold of an SMS from me some two, or three years ago.
And from then on, we started exchanging text messages—from the most trivial things to confidences that only friends share. For a while, we hid under a blanket of anonymity—assumed already forgotten pseudonyms and put on pretenses that neither of us (or so I thought) is aware of.
This went on for two years or three—again, as per his rather ‘pornographic’ mind. Things however, took a different turn a few months back. When he and I began to shed our assumed identities and decided to reveal who we really are.
And this is how my erstwhile impressions of him changed—I began to get to know the man behind the ‘legend’ that is ‘Captain Hook.’ The messages became more personal, confidences shared more frequently and we no longer confined to texting. He started talking to me over the phone. Then came online chats. Conversations became deeper, richer in substance. We talked about anything and everything.
‘Captain Hook’ is a real charmer—not the ‘would-sweep-you-off-your-feet’ kind but the type who could render you awestruck with his humor and innate magnetism. He has a way with words—he’s got brains to die for. Talking with him is intellectual foreplay at its best. With him my laughter reaches orgasmic heights.
He is a man of conviction, integrity and intellect. He has a very commanding presence and he exudes an aura of confidence. He has this deadly side glance that can leave you breathless for a moment. Suave and sexy, he blows my mind.
I couldn’t define what he is to me–a huge crush? 
Or is this Sean Chambers deja vu? Am i having another hero-worship scenario here? As per Carrie Bradshaw, ‘what ultimately defines a relationship is another relationship’–so I guess I’ll take my cue from her–since i’m in a relationship with a man I so dearly love, then i guess what I have for ‘Captain Hook’ is safely within the confines of platonic fondness.
