Tale of Silent Longing

7| The First Love Letter

Jordan knew Reeva , but he never knew her too well.

Illahi will get furious if he talks more about Reeva . He knew that Illahi can fight anyone for Tanya , so without saying much, he only told that Reeva is his schoolmate and Jahaan always keeps scolding her.

He concluded by saying, "But yes Jahaan never ever spoke to her directly. Reeva was the daughter of a very big property dealer. Her father and jahaan's father were very close friends.

For Jahaan 's father's new projects. Reeva's father used to do land suggestions and dealing, because of this, Reeva considered Jahaan as her property. She thought that her family would one day get them both married. And the truth was that her pride will never take her there or make that happen, Jordan didn't want to annoy Illahi or break Tanya 's heart by telling more of these things.

Now tell me what you thought, how will you express your love ? I mean that boys are the one who first express their love but not on this situation." Jordan laughed and said,

"Yes, but the boy should also be in love for her, and if we talk about Jahaan , then he cannot love anyone, Tanya ".

Tanya was absolutely agreeing with Jordan's point and without any argument on the matter, she said, "I don't care what his answer will be, I just want to tell him what is in my heart, but i do not understand how to tell him face to face, I do not have the courage in me to say anything to him, I wish there should be something that I do not even have to say anything to him in front of him and I would also be able to tell him my point. Jordan and Illahi were very impressed by this.

"Hey! This is a very good idea, you seem to be a genius in these matters", Jordan said in an impression.

On this Illahi also laughed happily and said, "Wow! Really Tanya you are great. On these things Tanya also laughed softly and said,

"What?? Is the idea really good?, I just said it like that. Tanya stopped for sometime and confidently said, "It is correct, I will write a letter and in it I can feel free and write all the things of my heart without any shame". Jordan got up and said, "Well now if this love story is over. Can we attend the next lecture? Anyway, I missed this morning's lecture too. The idea was supported by both Jordan and Illahi but now the responsibility of writing the letter was entirely on Tanya .

The time had come that whatever she had learned by reading Romantic novels, should be used in the right place. But she did not want to leave any stone unturned so she thought that she would give the letter to Jahaan after 2 days.

Tanya used to attend all the lectures without missing a single class. On the pretext of seeing Jahaan and sitting with him, she used to come to college on time everyday and observe Jahaan very closely. Everything about him, everything became very important to her. One of those things was Jahaan's Golden pen. Jahaan whenever someone used to ask him to solve a math problem, he would keep his normal pen on the side and he used to take out the golden pen and with that he would solve the problem. Tanya even asked Jahaan about that pen, but he did not show much interest in answering it. After all, the day had come when tanya was about to give the letter to Jahaan . She was getting very nervous in the morning and was reading that letter again and again so that no mistake would be left in it. Tanya got late for college today due to the letter. She kept the letter in the Maths book from memory and ran towards the college. She reached the class 5 minutes late and entered the class without seeing anything.

Her math professor, Professor Joshua had already come to the class, but because the class had not started yet, he told Tanya nothing and let her into her seat and asked her to sit. Tanya started smiling as usual after seeing Jahaan and happily went and sat with him. Half an hour had passed since the class started. The class was very quiet because all the students were sitting quietly solving the questions given by Professor Joshua .
