Lazy morning, my friend called up and asked me to accompany her to the college. I was too lazy to say yes and too bored to say no. In an hour I was in college with my friend and while talking she happened to tell me that I am going to meet someone today. I asked her who is it? And the next thing I heard was she saying “Hey Abhi! Glad you came. She is my friend whom I told you about yesterday.” And there I was sitting blank, thinking when did all this happen. And the next thing we were doing was sitting in canteen, talking and trying to get comfortable. In about half an hour Abhi left. I asked my friend “What’s going on? Who is he? Why didn’t you tell me about this?” Cutting me off, she said “Leave all this and just tell me how did you find him?” “Yaa, I think he is kinda cute but wait, will you please just tell me what’s going on?” I said, and the next moment a message popped up on my friend’s phone which said “Yaar, I can’t find your cute friend anywhere, not even on insta. Can I get her number?” She showed it to me smiling, saying “Since both of you found each other cute so I don’t think that you would mind getting his number too. Would you?” I just smiled back at her and the next minute my phone had Abhi’s number saved and Abhi's phone had my number saved. Then we both also left college and went to our homes.


On reaching home, Abhi’s message popped up “Reached safely?” Before replying to him, I texted my friend “It would be great if you could just stop giving him my live updates.” After a few minutes I opened Abhi’s message and texted him “Yaa, and it was great meeting you today.” Within five seconds I could see him typing, his reply was “Same here. By the way aren’t you on social media? I couldn’t find you anywhere.” Meanwhile, a call came and I couldn’t reply to his message just after reading it. Meanwhile Abhi thought that I did not reply intentionally, so he deleted the messages. After cutting the call, in a reply to him, I wrote the username of my insta Id, to which his reply came “Sorry for acting like a weirdo.” And the next minute we both were following each other on Insta. Within a few days, we came quite close to each other and could be seen sharing memes during lectures, clicking pictures in the most weird filters on snapchat and maintaining unbreakable streaks. Then came the days when we used to bunk lectures together and go on long crazy drives where we always used to stop at a silent and peaceful place and watch the sunset, standing together, hand in hand against the car.


I don’t know what I was feeling for him, maybe it was just a strange connection that we two somehow built together, the connection which neither of us would ever want to break. Or maybe I was in love with him but was too afraid to tell him. Skipping all these thoughts I just went to sleep. The next morning Abhi came to pick me up for the college and on the way, he asked me “Would you like to go for a drive today?” That day I had an important day at college but don’t know why I couldn’t just say no to him. Maybe nothing seemed more important to me than him. Just like every long drive, this time also we stood by the car to see the sunset but this time Abhi played a song, my favorite song, I asked him “What are you doing?” He turned to me, shut me up and said “See, this is too difficult for me and it took me a lot of courage to tell you this but ‘I love you’, I don’t know how, when and where all this happened but it did happen. I pray for your happiness, I love to see you smile, I genuinely do care for you and do not just want to see my life without you because then I see no meaning in it.


Now, it's your decision, if you say no then also….” I shut him up and just said “I love you too and do not wish to see the rest of my life without you in it.” We both smiled at each other, shared a hug and he kissed me on the forehead. It was time for us to leave now. We sat in the car and left the place, on the way back Abhi gave me a pen drive. I asked him “What is there in it?” He said “Play it.” And the next thing I heard was all my favorite songs being played. I just couldn’t stop smiling. He asked “Is it so easy to please you?” And I said, “Yes, because little things like these do matter.” I just held his hand, leaned my head on his shoulder and we came back listening to the pen drive that he composed for me. It all started off with being weird and it’s going on with just love in our hearts for one another. Maybe this is how love is supposed to be. It happens when you least expect it and goes away when you want it to stay.
