Friendship pt. 2

This is a continuation to something I posted before, called friendship. So here it goes

Aradhya ticked another day off the calendar hanging on her wall and sighed. Only one month left before she went and started a new journey. University. It felt like a big thing- it was a big thing, something which would alter her life forever.

She turned away from the calendar and walked towards her bed. It wasn't that late but she didn't have anything to do so she decided to sleep. She was doing her skincare when she heard a thump, she poked her head out of the bathroom to see, but nothing was out of the ordinary. She squinted her eyes in suspicion as she returned to what she was doing. There was another thump now, she cursed and left her skincare in between, washed her hands and decided to investigate.

She stood in her room now, hands on her hips, as she looked around. Then, there it was again, it was coming from the balcony, her heart skipped a beat as she thought of all the possibilities. Could there be a cat? Or some other animal? A thief? A MURDERER? She pushed the thoughts down and walked towards the balcony.

She opened the door to a pebble hitting her right on the head, and screamed, then realised that other people lived there, put her hand on her mouth and screamed again, the sound now muffled. She looked down and saw Adi waving at her with an unwavering smile and cursed out loud.

“What are you doing here?”, she asked him, while closing the balcony door, hoping nobody in her neighbourhood woke up.

“Come down and I’ll tell you”, he said, gesturing to the ladder on the side of her balcony which had been there since the first time she had snuck out to meet him at the stupid age of 13.

“No”, she said simply, crossing her arms. She probably looked stupid and not intimidating with her big shirt, shorts, fluffy bunny slippers and the cat ear headband she used to push her hair out of her face while she did her skincare, but she didn’t care.

“Oh come on, I came all the way here and you’re not even gonna ask why?”, he said.

“I did ask, you told me to come down, and I said no.”, she deadpanned. “You think you can just come here at 10 pm, throw pebbles at my balcony door, and expect to not re-enact the Romeo and Juliet scene?

“Oh my god”, he said, putting his head in his hands. “I’m pretty sure Romeo and Juliet didn’t have this scene because balconies weren’t even invented back then”, as always correcting her about theatre facts.

“Well, you know the trope, so come on, make your own lines”, she said, getting in position.

“Ugh, why are we friends?”, he asked but shook his head and cleared his throat.

“Aradhya, Oh Aradhya, let down your hair…, oh wait that’s from Rapunzel”, he said, confusion visible in his eyes.

Ara touched her hair which almost reached her shoulders, and decided to control her laughter.

“Acha, arz kiya hai...”

“Irshaad”, she said, impressed by the dedication.

“Kuch karo fikar mujh deewane ki, dhum hai fir bahar aane ki”, he said with a bow.

“That’s from Layla and Majnun”, she said, remembering the time he used to make her remember his favourite quotes.

“You know I’m not good at impromptu stuff and this bow is very uncomfortable so if you would please hurry up and say something back, that would be amazing, thanks”, he said, his voice strained from the bow.

“I love you to the moon and to Saturn”, she said in the same loving tone and did a little bow for good measure.

“That’s literally a Taylor Swift lyric”, he said, now standing straight.

“I thought there were no restraints on poetry”, she said, as she went inside her room, got her phone, and keys, took the hairband off and put on her shoes.

“Well technically but-”, he started as she climbed down the ladder, but she stopped him with the finger.

“Shall we go now?”, he asked with the same mock bow as before, she slapped him on the head and ran away laughing as he tried to catch up.

…

“Now tell me, what made you think of me at this time?”, she asked him as they walked.

“Well, since you’re going to England to live with the colonizers, which was a joke for legal reasons. As I was saying, I’m going to make this your most memorable month, starting with today.”

“Fair enough, she said, “where are we going though?”

“Aradhya”, he faced her now, the excitement visible in his eyes, “We are going to get tattoos”

“Whoa whoa wait”, she stopped him there, “this is a big deal and well I haven’t asked my parents.

“Well, you turned 18 last Friday, so technically you don’t need parental consent, besides, didn’t you literally ask them that day?”, he asked.

“You’re right, and I have wanted to get a tattoo since forever.”, she thought about it, and remembered asking her parents about it last week, they had been cool about it and said she could get it done now that she was 18.

“Well, any ideas then?”, she asked him as they started walking once again.

“Oh yes, I have a Vision with a capital V”, he said waving his hands around, as if he was trying to make her see what he had in mind with invisible diagrams in the air.

“So I’m gonna go in there, and get a SpongeBob tattoo on my ass and guess which quote I’m gonna use”, he wiggled his eyebrows at her.

She laughed and said “Oh my god, please don’t tell me you’re for real”

“I’m serious, come on guess”, he told her but he was laughing too.

“The smell one”, she guessed.

“BINGO”, he shouted, and decided to quote the line, “‘Did you smell it? That smell. A kind of smelly smell. The smelly smell that smells...smelly.’, is literally the most iconic thing Mr. Krabs said actually.”

They doubled over with laughter and when they finally calmed down, they talked about how Adi was definitely not doing that.

“You know what we should do?, she said, “We should not tell the other what we’re getting and do a grand reveal later. I think this is both a terrible and a great idea, what do you think?”

“Hmm, let’s see how this goes”, he said as they entered the tattoo parlour.

That’s how an hour later, they were both outside the tattoo place with a bandage covering their new tattoos, eager to see what the other got.

“So how are we doing this, do we count to three?”, Adi asked.

“Let’s just ‘rip the bandage off’”, she said, trying for some humour.

“That was so lame”, he told her and said, “Ooh okay wait, how about we take each other’s bandage off?”

“At the same time though”, she told him.

Ara had decided to get her tattoo above her collarbone, and Adi had gone for the side of the neck. They closed their eyes and took the bandages off.

“1…2…3”, Ara counted, and they opened their eyes.

“Is that-”, they both started, shocked.

“You go first”, Ara said.

“Can I touch it?”, he asked

“Go on”, she said.

He touched the tattoo and her eyes fluttered close. He breathed out and looked at her. “Please tell me this is what I think it is”, he said.

“Remember when you took that Taylor Swift lyric literally and drew actual stars around the scar I got from a glass on this same place? Well, I took a picture of them at that time so I had it with me right now.”, she told him. The scar was still there, but now there were permanent stars around it, all of different shapes and sizes, they looked like the night sky.

“Well you had just introduced me to her and even now after all these years, I’m telling you, Folklore is her best album yet but you’re still stuck up on Speak now.”, he told her.

“I will not tolerate this slander towards my purple heaven”, she faked being offended.

“Well, your turn now”, he said, getting back on the topic.

“Can I touch it?”, she asked.

“Of course, why would you even ask?”, he said.

“Well you asked, so I thought I better ask too”, she said.

She touched the crescent moon, her drawing as familiar to her as the back of her hand. The moon had two heart-shaped craters, and filling the gap and making it a full moon was a daisy, her favourite flower.

“Didn’t I draw this for that campaign back in 9th grade?” she asked.

“Yes well, even if the campaign didn’t go well, I loved the design, so even I took a photo of it at that time.

“Our minds”, Ara said, tears welling in her eyes.

“Hey hey hey, no crying”, he told her, but his eyes were full of tears too.

“Hug?”, Ara croaked out.

They enveloped each other in a hug, it was times like these when Adi was grateful they were almost the same height because he got to put his armour down and feel safe in her arms. She traced circles on the small of his back, just like he had months ago.

When they were done crying, they broke apart at each other with bloodshot eyes. Ara took his hands in hers and started to say something but Adi beat her to it.

“The moon might find its sun someday”, he whispered.

“And the stars might find their galaxy”, she whispered back, closing her eyes.

“But they’ll never forget”, he continued.

“The universe they built”, she opened her eyes now, holding his gaze with hers.

“Together”, they whispered at the same time.

They stood there in silence, looking at each other. This lasted for 5 long seconds and then-

Laughter. Incoherent, deranged laughter.

“Why are we so cheesy, oh my god”, Adi said, tears streaming down his face as he laughed.

Ara was doubled over laughing, clutching her stomach, it was starting to hurt now with the way she could not stop laughing.

They calmed down, and though it took 3 tries, they were walking back to her house now, infectious smiles on their faces.

Somewhere in the way, Adi slowed down, the smile fading from his face. They stopped at a streetlight. “You know, maybe the stars won’t find their galaxy, maybe- maybe they're better off alone”, he said, his face serious now.

“I know”, Ara looked at him softly, understanding visible in her eyes. “And that’s absolutely fine, so don’t let anyone tell you otherwise”, she hugged him again as he closed his eyes and let himself feel safe again.

#maewrites #friendship can be just as beautiful as romance #i have big plans for these characters #I'm genuinely thinking of making a small collection of short stories for them #let's see #desiblr

Due to some scheduling kerfuffles at the station, the July 2, 2018 instalment of The Midway will last longer and start a whole lot earlier! Coming to your receivers from 6AM-10AM MST, tune in for our post-Canada Day extravaganza.

The theme of this episode is a simple one: what is the best Canadian artist/song you’ve discovered in 2018? It can be a new release, or any Canadian that you weren’t previously aware of - regardless of era.

Hola buenas, he revisado los tags y no he encontrado nada que me cuadre. Estoy buscando pb para una mujer, que aparente entre 45 y 55 años. De etnia árabe o mestiza (arabe/caucasica), vamos que aparente ser Siria/Egipcia/Marroquí xD. Me la imagino con el pelo oscuro y los ojos marrones, aunque eso es secundario. No pido mucho más, por que ya solo encontrar una mujer +30 poc ya es bastante complicado. Muchas gracias de antemano y enhorabuena por el tumblr.

El mayor problema es que la mayoría de las personas de oriente medio y similar que conozco alcanzan como mucho la franja de los treinta años, por lo que no llegan a los cuarenta, así que no voy a tener muchas opciones.

No recomendamos usar alguien de una ascendencia como si fuera de otra solo porque “aparente ser” a tus ojos una cosa u otra, así que te aconsejamos que cuando elijas una de las opciones mires qué ascendencia tiene porque hemos cogido norte de áfrica y oriente medio, sobre todo. ¡Esperamos que alguna te cuadre!

Esperamos que nos digas si te ha servido alguna sugerencia, de lo contrario puedes volver para que busquemos más opciones. Los likes de todo aquel al que le guste, rebloguee o le de uso, serán agradecidos.

Pomegranates Quotes

Official Website: Pomegranates Quotes

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();

• Adversity is like the period of the rain. . . cold, comfortless, unfriendly to people and to animals; yet from that season have their birth the flower, the fruit, the date, the rose and the pomegranate. – Walter Scott • And her sweet red lips on these lips of mine Burned like the ruby fire set In the swinging lamp of a crimson shrine, Or the bleeding wounds of the pomegranate, Or the heart of the lotus drenched and wet With the spilt-out blood of the rose-red wine. – Oscar Wilde

jQuery(document).ready(function($) var data = action: 'polyxgo_products_search', type: 'Product', keywords: 'Pomegranate', orderby: 'rand', order: 'DESC', template: '1', limit: '68', columns: '4', viewall:'Shop All', ; jQuery.post(spyr_params.ajaxurl,data, function(response) var obj = jQuery.parseJSON(response); jQuery('#thelovesof_pomegranate').html(obj); jQuery('#thelovesof_pomegranate img.swiper-lazy:not(.swiper-lazy-loaded)' ).each(function () var img = jQuery(this); img.attr("src",img.data('src')); img.addClass( 'swiper-lazy-loaded' ); img.removeAttr('data-src'); ); ); );

• But I have an African or Indian approach to what I find. I like to make use of everything. I can’t bear to throw things away – a nice wine bottle, a nice box. Sometimes I feel like a wizard in Toytown, transforming a bunch of carrots into pomegranates. – Eduardo Paolozzi • Close to the Gates a spacious Garden lies, From the Storms defended and inclement Skies; Four Acres was the allotted Space of Ground, Fenc’d with a green Enclosure all around. Tall thriving Trees confessed the fruitful Mold: The reddening Apple ripens here to Gold, Here the blue Fig with luscious Juice overflows, With deeper Red the full Pomegranate glows, The Branch here bends beneath the weighty Pear, And verdant Olives flourish round the Year. – Homer • Fun fact #1 about pomegranates: Pomegranates are awesome.Fun fact #2: Pomegranates are like little explosions of awesome in your mouth.Fun fact #3: A lot of people think you’re not supposed to eat the seeds of a pomegranate – but that’s not true, people who tell you that are liars, and they don’t know anything about life, and they should never be trusted. – Tahereh Mafi • Gospel ministers should not only be like dials on watches, or mile-stones upon the road, but like clocks and larums, to sound the alarm to sinners. Aaron wore bells as well as pomegranates, and the prophets were commanded to lift up their voice like a trumpet. A sleeping sentinel may be the loss of the city. – Joseph Hall • I am Persephone” she said, her voice thin and papery. “Welcome, demigods. Nico squashed a pomegranate under his boot. “Welcome? After last time, you’ve got the nerve to welcome me?” I shifted uneasily, because talking that way to a god can get you blasted into dust bunnies. “Um, Nico-” “It’s all right,” Persephone said coldly. “We had a little family spat.” “Family spat?” Nico cried. “You turned me into a dandelion! – Rick Riordan • I envied women with signature hair-dos, signature perfumes, signature sign-offs. Novelists who tell Vogue Magazine: “I can’t live without my Smythson notebook, Pomegranate Noir cologne by Jo Malone and Frette sheets”. In the grip of madness, materialism begins to look like an admirable belief system. – Emma Forrest • I felt like a seed in a pomegranate. Some say that the pomegranate was the real apple of Eve, fruit of the womb, I would eat my way into perdition to taste you. – Jeanette Winterson • I loved every second of Catholic church. I loved the sickly sweet rotting-pomegranate smells of the incense. I loved the overwrought altar, the birdbath of holy water, the votive candles; I loved that there was a poor box, the stations of the cross rendered in stained glass on the windows. – Anne Lamott • In 1879 the Bengali scholar S.M. Tagore compiled a more extensive list of ruby colors from the Purana sacred texts: ‘like the China rose, like blood, like the seeds of the pomegranate, like red lead, like the red lotus, like saffron, like the resin of certain trees, like the eyes of the Greek partridge or the Indian crane…and like the interior of the half-blown water lily.’ With so many gorgeous descriptive possibilities it is curious that in English the two ancient names for rubies have come to sound incredibly ugly. – Victoria Finlay • My heart is like a singing bird Whose nest is in a water’d shoot; My heart is like an apple-tree Whose boughs are bent with thick-set fruit; My heart is like a rainbow shell That paddles in a halcyon sea; My heart is gladder than all these, Because my love is come to me. Raise me a daïs of silk and down; Hang it with vair and purple dyes; Carve it in doves and pomegranates, And peacocks with a hundred eyes; Work it in gold and silver grapes, In leaves and silver fleurs-de-lys; Because the birthday of my life Is come, my love is come to me. – Christina Rossetti • Or from Browning some “Pomegranate,” which if cut deep down the middle Shows a heart within blood-tinctured, of a veined humanity. – Elizabeth Barrett Browning • Pomegranate juice has staying power. It’s not a fad. Once people have tasted POM Wonderful, they say they are addicted – and it’s a good addiction to have. – Lynda Resnick • Pomegranate Soup is glorious, daring and delightful. I adored the Iranian sisters, Marjan, Bahar and Layla, who are looking to build a life, start a business and find love in a place so far from home. Ireland has never been more beautiful – the perfect setting for this story filled with humor, hope and possibility. – Adriana Trigiani

• So hey, once Joshua heals your brother, you want to go do something, get some pomegranate juice, a falafel,or get married or something? – Christopher Moore • So where does the name Adam’s apple come from? Most people say that it is from the notion that this bump was caused by the forbidden fruit getting stuck in the throat of Adam in the Garden of Eden. There is a problem with this theory because some Hebrew scholars believe that the forbidden fruit was the pomegranate. The Koran claims that the forbidden fruit was a banana. So take your pick—Adam’s apple, Adam’s pomegranate, Adam’s banana. Eve clearly chewed before swallowing. – Mark Leyner • Surely Love is a wonderful thing. It is more precious than emeralds, and dearer than fine opals. Pearls and pomegranates cannot buy it, nor is it set forth in the marketplace. It may not be purchased of the merchants, for can it be weighed out in the balance for gold. – Oscar Wilde • The decor bowled me over. Everywhere I looked, there was something more to see. Botanical prints, a cross section of pomegranates, a passionflower vine and its fruit. Stacks of thick books on art and design and a collection of glass paperweights filled the coffee table. It was enormously beautiful, a sensibility I’d never encountered anywhere, a relaxed luxury. I could feel my mother’s contemptuous gaze falling on the cluttered surfaces, but I was tired of three white flowers in a glass vase. There was more to life than that. – Janet Fitch • The fallen hazel-nuts, Stripped late of their green sheaths, The grapes, red-purple, Their berries Dripping with wine, Pomegranates already broken, And shrunken fig, And quinces untouched, I bring thee as offering. – Hilda Doolittle • While still sixteen I am put in charge of a class of forty children who are two, three or four years younger than I. I fall in love with them. They are my possession, my mob whose forty minds, under my flashy and domineering control, are to become one, a mind unsullied by errors, unmarked by blots, contaminated by misplaced originalities outside the curriculum, and as full of facts as a pomegranate seed. – Hal Porter
