Her Heart Keeper ✔

Avi's pov :

I looked at her sleeping figure. After having her lunch, she immediately went to her room without speaking a word to anyone. I also gave her some space. After some time, when I came to the room, I found her sleeping peacefully.

I had been trying to keep my anger under control since the morning because of that girl. How dare she insult my bunny? If it was another person in her place, I could have slapped that person. I'm proud that she didn't sit silently when that girl tried to insult her.

Now I'm searching for some good books on the bookshelf so that I can divert my mind. She has a good collection of books, as she loves reading. But there are only books related to group exams. Where might she have kept them? Then I pulled the storage box from under her bed. Yes, they are here. But why did she keep them here? Anyway, there was a box that caught my attention.

What's so special about this box? I opened the box with curiosity to see what she had hidden inside. There were so many letters inside the box, some with my name and our house address and others with my college address. Then it struck me that she had written these letters for me but didn't send them to me. Actually, when she moved to city from our village, she used to write letters to us. That was Grandpa's idea. She didn't want to go with her parents, so he gave her the idea of writing letters. Despite the availability of telephones at the time, he told us that the feeling would be beautiful when writing letters. Indeed, it is so beautiful. Every week, we used to write two letters. She used to send for me and Arjun, while I used to send for her and Arjun, and Arjun used to send for both of us. We used to wait eagerly for the letters. But for the last three years, I haven't received a single letter. Though now we are using smartphones, even then we used to write letters at least twice a month.
