Third-person PoV
Myra was finally here, looking around charming faces searching for the Rockstar, but she couldn't find anyone who is waiting for her, she was impatient by now, so she thought to ask the hotel staff about some guy who had this giant size teddy previously with him, she was about to ask, when she heard a small voice calling her
"Hi Myra" came a voice from the corner of the cafe
There were people standing there, she could see him properly, so she went ahead towards that direction, seeing Myra coming towards him, his legs started to shake in anxiety but he tried well to keep a happy face.
"Yes?" Myra asked him
"Hi I am rockstar Rud" before he completes the sentence
She cut him in middle "soooooo you are rockstar" she asked in a taunting and mocking voice, usually, she would run away seeing such an average good looking guy, but she decided on another approach this time
"Yes please have a seat" he pulls the chair for her
She glances at his appearance and features once only and turned her face to the other side he was too dull and ugly for her taste and standards, she mentally laughed at this half-starved dull boy calls him rockstar, what an irony she wondered.
She hesitantly sat on the chair he pulled so lovingly for her, Rudra did notice her vacant and shocked reaction, he ended expected worse, but he is happy that she is at least sitting in front of him
The moment she sat down, their table was filled with everything which was Myra's favorite from coffee to croissant, a small smile formed on her lips but she was too proud to show that so she went back to a void expression
"So finally we meet" Rudra speaks nervously
"Yes" where Myra was loud and clear
An awkward silence crept between them, Rudra was looking at her intently while Myra looked everywhere but not him which broke him a little, he sadly wondered I am so bad to even look upon
Shrugging all negative thoughts, he cheerfully offered her the pastry "Hey have this, this is your favorite"
Reluctantly she takes the plate and started to eat her pastry without having the courtesy to ask him.
"So you like my presents," he asked in hope that she would converse with him.
"Yes, they were nice, thank you" she replies in a monotonous voice while she was busy eating
"I don't want to sound like a creep, but you are looking stunning, I hope you don't mind, I really mean it" he compliments with all his heart as she was the most beautiful girl for him
She rolls her eyes as every second guy would compliment her every day, nothing new about this, she is used to all this attention and compliments
"Thank you," she said in a tone trying to imply that don't tell her an obvious
This didn't go unobserved by him, but he chooses to ignore it, she was in front of him and nothing else matter to him.
The one-sided conversation went of little time, where Rudra would pour out his thoughts whereas Myra would reply yes or no, not more than two words in one go, Rudra just wished this never ended, while Myra was hoping this horrendous meet should end soon, she was tried looking here and there and pretending that she is listening to him.
Myra was irritated and bored, desperately waiting to stop talking so she could run away from him, but Rudra was in no mood to stop, running out of option she cut him in between "I have to go" and stood up immediately
"Ok, wait I call a cab for you," he asked generously, he had his own bike, he can't even think of offering a ride to her
"No, I'll manage", and started to arrange her belongings
"Ok, it was a pleasure meeting you" he extends his hand to shake hands
Without evening looking at him, she shakes him for a millisecond and pulls her hand away, and left quickly without even saying goodbye.
**************
After their meet, Rudra was the happiest guy in the world, though he was aware of the fact that Myra seemed least interested to communicate, still, he had hopes that he will manage to impress her someday, the start of their friendship for him was just picture perfect, after their first meet he has fallen more madly for her and called it delusional he thinks near future she will also love him, he spends the entire day on the same table replaying the events in his mind, sipping coffee one after another and dreaming about their next meet, only if he knew that it would be just a farfetched dream for him.
Whereas Myra had already dumped all the gifts and letters in the trash in the middle of somewhere on the way to her home, she was way too annoyed and infuriated at the audacity of that Rockstar how could he even think to befriend her, like he can't even talk effortlessly to her, she felt so bighearted and generous of herself that she gave him some time, she could immediately turn around and leave without uttering a word but she felt charitable today, she couldn't even look at him more than once, he was just so low of her standard, she is an archetypal instance of an arrogant and egotistic teenager, soon she reached home and planned an overnight with a bunch of friends and enjoyed the night with her friends, those people who matched her class and standard.
Rudra couldn't sleep the entire night, he kept making dreamy scenarios with her, and he wanted to be with her more than anything else in the world, whereas Myra wanted everything in the world but definitely not him.
****************
The first Rudra did in the morning is messaged her and expressed his wish to meet her.
"Hey Myra lets meet after your college"
She faked a laugh on the message and blocked his account immediately not even bothering to give him closure.
He waited for the whole day for her reply, but no luck, he assures himself that she might be busy and drifted off to sleep.
A week passed, he has sent several messages to her signifying his feelings for her directly or indirectly however there was no sign of her neither in college nor in the messages, her absence from college was because she went out of town for a trip with her family but her lack of presence from messages was unanswered, so he decided to confront her face to face at the college itself today, only if he knew this step would just lead him and make him just another "Heartbroken Teenager"
