The gift box

The wind blowing in through the window of the train took some of her hair strands to my face... I felt like i was feeling her...
She looked back as if to see why am I keeping quite..
And she found that her hair was running all over my face... She asked sorry and fixed her hair clip again.
She laid on my shoulder for some time.
Then She asked..."why didnt you tell me that my hair was disturbing you?"
I chuckled and said..no it was not.
She asked surprisingly "why"?
I said.."I love your hair".
************
Her teeth was visible from far as she walked to me from the college.
I noticed that she was hiding some thing in her hand.
As she came near me I asked "what is it?"
She smiled in a naughty way and said "a gift ....for you"
"but you have to promise me that you won't open it till you reach your room" and She handed it over to me
A box wrapped with a red velvet cloth.
********
I opened it as soon as I reached home.It was a small match box inside the red velvet cloth.
I opened the match box with a little bit of excitement and with a lot of restlessness.
There was an yellow piece of folded paper inside the match box instead of match sticks.
I unfolded the paper and found three strands of hair.. and it was written on the paper in red bold letters.....
"These are not the fallen from my head, if you know what I mean.. keep this. I love you "
