THE BEGINNING
370 Words
My heart started staring at my stupid soul. I used to feel so different around him as I created a brand new version just for this person. We used to have project related discussions mostly but I wanted to know more about him. I wanted to explore him.
One day on our way home, some of our classmates decided to have coffee. My one friend and me were also on our way home and we were joined to that group. That group included Krishh and his friends also. I was again nervous with my improper looks and timid attitude and stayed quiet as usual. Me and my one friend were about to leave that place after we finished our drink when the group asked us to visit a snack corner nearby. I denied but then obviously went along when Krishh said to me, “ come Isha, you will enjoy it.”
This was just a phrase for him, but for me it was the most soothing thing I heard that day after a long time from anyone. That was the beginning of our story. OH! Sorry…..A story of us without him, that I was writing with the quill filled with my blood on the blank sheet of my soul.
I started talking with him during our class sessions, but this time we were having also day to day conversations along with the project related discussions. I started enjoying his company as a friend. We definitely had differences in our choices and opinions but I believe its all the differences and flaws that makes a person perfect. We started discussing about our favourite bands and the route I take to travel to college.
For him it was just any other informal conversation with a classmate friend but for me, it was the most mesmerising experience.
His existence made everything so different in a beautiful way. I wish I was not an introvert girl with social anxiety issues. But one wish was maybe slowly turning into a reality, and that was Krishh.
This was the first time in my life that I actually was talking to a boy I had a so called “crush” on. I never initiated anything with any of my crush earlier as I was too INSECURE.
