When he saw her...

He couldn’t take his eyes off her . She was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. He had never felt this urge before, an urge so strong it was difficult to resist, an urge to take her into his arms and feel her next to his heart

He kept on looking at her, too much in awe of her calm and serene beauty, to move… her hair glistening with every golden ray of the sun, her eyes like soothing waters and her skin..untouched…pure. He didn’t know how long he stood there watching her and then as if she sensed it, she suddenly turned and looked at him. His eyes met hers for the first time and his heart skipped a beat.
He took a step towards her…hesitant…unsure…not knowing what her reaction would be…and then he was close to her….so close he could smell her, feel her , touch her.
Still looking into her eyes he lifted his arm and caressed her cheek .Her eyes flickered and he pulled back in fear…and then gently his fingers closed around her hand.
She smiled….
and in that one moment he knew…
that nothing in the world could be more important than her…
that he can take on a lifetime of sorrows for one moment of her joy…
that he can give up the biggest of his dreams to make her smallest one come true…
that he can stand alone and fight for everything that she deserves….for everything that he can possibly get her…
that there is nothing…absolutely nothing in this world that he wouldn’t do for her

He took her in his arms carefully, gently, nervously and kissed his new born baby girl for the first time…
And in that one moment he knew what ‘being a father’ means.
