It was a beautiful evening on a Sunday when I was taking a walk at the park admiring the nature and looking at the kids playing and their mothers engaged in conversation with each other. On Sundays I prefer staying at home the most I would do is take a walk at the park or just go the book renting store I often go to . What else would a 16 year old having strict parents would do.

It had been a while I haven't read anything so I decided to pay a visit to that store. As I walked in I couldn't see the owner, instead I saw a young and charming guy whose age would be between 18 to 20. He passed a smile at me and asked " how may I help you?" " um... I just wanted to take a look" I replied smiling back.

I went to the book shelf I usually pick my books from and started finding a good novel while my gaze fell on that young guy through the space built between two books. I couldn't stop admiring his handsome face. He coughed and looked at me and asked " did you find something?" "yeah" I said in a hesitant way "give it to me " he said I quickly grabbed any random book from the shelf without even looking at the cover or title of the book. He took it from my hand and looked at it then smiled and looked at me,taking out the his register he asked " I don't think you need this to make someone fall in love with you " I got confused and looked at the cover 101 WAYS TO MAKE SOMEONE FALL FOR YOU was written on it I got flustered and snatched it back from his hand "maybe I grabbed the wrong one" I said awkwardly and went back, grabbed another book called A STUDY IN SCARLET.

On my way back home all I was thinking that what did he mean by I don't need that book to make someone fall for me.

It was almost dinner time so I rushed back home and was ready to eat something tasty as my mom usually makes something delicious on weekends. After eating a plate full of Biryani I went to my bed and lied down ready to sleep when the image of that handsome looking boy came in front of "ahh why can't I stop thinking about him he's not that handsome or maybe he is " I shrugged my thought and tried to sleep.

I got up at 5 the next day and got ready for my school. I kept that book inside my bag ad I thought I would return it on my way back home although I didn't even read a single page. Off course I did that just to see that guy but still I tried to convince myself that it wasn't for him.

On my way back I went to that shop but what I saw was heartbreaking and shocking...
