Meet Siddharth , a college student haunted by the ghosts of past heartbreaks, convinced that love is nothing but a mirage. However, fate has a different plan when he crosses paths with Alisha. For the first time in ages, a smile graces his lips, spa...
Heart pounding with anticipation, I mustered the courage to reply to Alisha's message.
Hi ma'am
I typed, fingers trembling slightly.
I couldn't help but notice that you have the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen.
Taking a deep breath, I continued,
I hope this isn't too forward, but would you like you to hear a small poem? It's something I wrote a while back, and I think it captures the essence of your beauty.
With a shaky hand, I hit send, my stomach churning with nervous excitement as I awaited her response.

Alisha's Pov:
I felt a flutter of excitement as I settled into my seat in the library, my mind still buzzing with the message I had received from Mr. Shy.
With a curious smile, I unlocked my phone and opened the message, my heart skipped a beat as I read his words.
Thank you
I typed in response, a warm flush spreading across my cheeks.
I'd love to hear your poem.
As I hit send, anticipation bubbled within me, eager to discover what poetic words he had crafted for me.
After a while he replied
In the ocean of dreams, where mysteries roam, Two orbs of wonder find their home. Your eyes, a captivating sight, Guiding souls through darkest night.
With every glance, a story unfolds, Of love and laughter, of dreams untold. In those eyes, the universe resides, A symphony of stars, where magic abides.
Like sapphires gleaming in the sun's warm light, They capture hearts with their gentle might.
As I read the poem, I couldn't help but blush, feeling a warmth spread through me at the thought of someone crafting such beautiful words just for me.
Lost in the mesmerizing imagery of the verses, I was completely unaware of Nandani's prying eyes until she snatched my phone from my hand.
"Ooh, someone's got a secret admirer," she teased, her laughter ringing through the quiet confines of the library.
I rolled my eyes playfully, feeling the heat rise to my cheeks.
"Oh, shush," I retorted, trying to hide my embarrassment behind a playful smirk.
But Nandani wasn't about to let me off the hook that easily.
"Come on, spill the beans. Who's the lucky guy?" she prodded, her eyes dancing with mischief.
I chuckled, deciding to turn the tables on her.
"I don't know And what about you and Rohan?" I countered, raising an eyebrow in mock accusation.
Nandani's laughter bubbled forth even louder at my response, and I couldn't help but join in.
Snatching my phone back from her, I quickly composed myself.
Me: Thank you. Your words really made my day brighter. By the way, I realized I never asked your name. What should I call you?
Mr. Shy: You're welcome, it's my pleasure. You can call me Prem.
Me: Nice to meet you, Prem! Myself Alisha. So, Are you also a student?
Mr. Shy: Nice to meet you too, Alisha! Yes, I'm a 3rd year student, studying engineering. How about you? What's your field of study?
Me: Same as yours but 1st year. What about your interests outside of studies?
Mr.Shy: Literature, that's fascinating! As for me, I enjoy photography and playing the guitar in my free time.
Me: Photography and guitar? Impressive!
Mr. Shy: yup , now I have to go bye Talk to you later.
Me: okk byee
