Caught by her smile

Well like most authors i am one who do not
believe in love at first sight untill i experienced it
myself...
It all started like this, I was with a few friends at
McDonalds, after my lecture from school, we were
chatting and laughing at some stupid stories that
one of my friends told...
Just then, a group of girls come and took their
seats, there was this girl, quite outstanding for
that striking red top she was wearing and she
had this sweet smile...
Then, while they were at the counter, ordering
their food, i noticed something, they all had a
disability, they could not talk... But, this was not
considered a disability to me, i walked up to
them, and ask for her number, well, she was
suprised?
But, she eventually gave me her address and her
name is Elaine, she does not have a phone at
home and there was no possibility to talk to
her...
After a few days, i sent her a letter, asking her
out on a date the following Saturday. Whether she
agreed to the date or was it rejected, i could not
tell for i do not know!
We were supposed to meet at the Lido cinema to
catch a movie, i waited for around 5mins then,
she appeared. She was wearing that same smile
that caught me..
In the cinema, we saw he show "Ice Age." In
order to communicate, i needed to get a pen and
paper...
I asked her about how she felt about me.. she
told me she was very happy, but at the same
time, she was worried as she could not define
whether my love was out of sympathy or was it
from my heart.
From that moment, i have been asking myself the
question, untill a month later after my exams, i
finally made up my mind, i was really in love with
her, not for her disability that i sympathize, not
for that she is pretty, but for the fact that i love
her... i went to her home, which made her quite
suprised, i pulled her out of her home and ran to
the park in font of her block of flats, i looked at
her and wrote to her how i felt, she looked at my
with those big black eyes, those that could take
your soul away if you were you stare at it for a
long time.
She took the pen and wrote this sentence,"I love
you too, but now that i am assured that you love
me for wat i am and not out of sympathy, i feel
that i will not regret the decision.."
Now, we have been together for two years and
althoguh we have not planned to get married, i
have never once quarrel with her, not even on
paper and i never will...
