**Shreshta**: Kush, I have something important to tell you. Shreya has feelings for you.
**Kush**: *surprised* Shreya? I had no idea. Thank you for letting me know, Shreshta.
With a mix of nervousness and anticipation, Kush decided to act on the newfound information. He made his way to Shreya, his heart racing with a blend of emotions.
**Kush**: Shreya, there's something I need to tell you. I have feelings for you too.
**Shreya**: *taken aback* Kush, I... I never expected this. Thank you for being honest with me.
As they navigated through the whirlwind of emotions, Kush made a heartfelt confession intertwined with a promise for the future.
**Kush**: Shreya, with our 10th board exams approaching, I believe we should focus on our studies this year. Let's not label ourselves as boyfriend and girlfriend for the time being, but know that my feelings for you are genuine.
**Shreya**: *understanding* Kush, I agree. Our studies are important, and I value your honesty and understanding.
In the midst of the academic challenges that lay ahead, Shreya and Kush found themselves at the cusp of a delicate balance between love and responsibilities.
Their hearts beat in unison, their connection deepening with each passing moment, as they embarked on a journey of shared aspirations and mutual respect.
And as they embraced the decision to prioritize their studies while nurturing their budding relationship, Shreya and Kush set forth on a path paved with understanding, trust, and the promise of a future where their love would bloom and flourish in due time.
As the bus journey back home commenced, Shreya sat beside Arsh, her heart brimming with the newfound emotions from the day's confessions. She recounted the events that transpired with Kush, sharing the details of his confession and their mutual agreement to focus on studies for the time being.
**Shreya**: Arsh, today has been so overwhelming. I can't believe everything that happened with Kush. It's like a dream come true.
**Arsh**: *smiling outwardly* I'm so happy for you, Shreya. Kush seems like a great guy, and I'm glad things worked out.
While Arsh outwardly expressed his happiness for Shreya, inwardly, a storm of conflicting emotions raged within him. His heart ached with unspoken words, the weight of his unshared feelings for Shreya pressing down on him like a heavy burden.
**Shreya**: Arsh, thank you for always being there for me. Your friendship means the world to me.
**Arsh**: *softly* You're welcome, Shreya. I'll always be here for you, no matter what.
As the bus rolled on, carrying them towards their respective destinations, Arsh made a silent vow to cherish the friendship he shared with Shreya, even if it meant sacrificing his own desires for the sake of her happiness.
In the quiet hum of the bus and the fading light of the day, his unspoken love for her lingered in the air, a silent echo of longing and unfulfilled dreams.
And as the bus came to a stop, signaling the end of another day, Arsh stepped off with a heavy heart, the weight of his unspoken feelings a burden he carried in silence, his love for Shreya hidden beneath layers of friendship and unspoken confessions, a secret longing that whispered in the shadows of his heart, waiting for the right moment to be revealed.
