🎼 College Love Story 🎶💞

Chapter - 16

Next day 🌅
Last day in masoorie

As the last day in Mussoorie approached, Professor Kapoor began detailing the itinerary to the group of students gathered in the hotel lobby.

"Alright, everyone," Professor Kapoor announced, "for our final day in Mussoorie, we have a fantastic lineup planned. We'll start bright and early with a trek to Lal Tibba, the highest point in the area. It's an opportunity not to be missed - witnessing the breathtaking sunrise and taking in the panoramic views of the snow-capped Himalayas."

Meanwhile, the rest of the students listened attentively to the professor's instructions, eagerly anticipating the day ahead.

"In the afternoon," Professor Kapoor continued, "we'll visit Company Garden, a meticulously maintained park filled with vibrant flowers and lush greenery. It'll be the perfect spot for a picnic lunch, surrounded by the serene beauty of the garden."

The excitement in the air was palpable as the students envisioned the picturesque scenes described by their professor.

"And finally," Professor Kapoor concluded, "in the evening, we'll explore the Tibetan Market, renowned for its unique handicrafts, artifacts, and clothing. It'll be a chance to immerse ourselves in the vibrant Tibetan culture and indulge in some delicious local cuisine for dinner."

As the professor wrapped up the itinerary, Abhishek turned to Kashish with a playful grin. "So, Kashish, what do you think? Ready for our last day adventure?"

Kashish sighed, her gaze drifting towards the window overlooking the scenic beauty of Mussoorie. "I don't know, Abhishek. I just feel like I'm not ready to leave yet. There's something magical about this place."

Abhishek nodded understandingly, his tone gentle. "I get it, Kashish. Mussoorie has a way of capturing your heart. But hey, think of all the memories we've made. We can always come back, right?"

Kashish offered a faint smile, appreciating Abhishek's attempt to cheer her up. "Yeah, you're right. I guess I'm just being sentimental."

Their conversation was interrupted by the enthusiastic chatter of their classmates, discussing plans for the day ahead. Abhishek leaned in closer to Kashish, lowering his voice. "Listen, why don't we make the most of today? Let's soak in every moment, create some unforgettable memories together."

Kashish's eyes brightened at the suggestion, a spark of excitement igniting within her. "You know what, Abhishek? You're absolutely right. Let's make today count."

------------------------------------------------------

As the group gathered for breakfast, excitement buzzed in the air, mingling with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and warm pancakes. Abhishek, Kashish, and their friends - Ritika, Shreya, Divya, Rishab, Harshit, and Tanmay - eagerly discussed the day's plans over their meal, eager to begin their trek to Lal Tibba.

Once fueled by breakfast, the group set off on their trek, the crisp mountain air invigorating their spirits. As they made their way along the winding paths, Abhishek found himself walking alongside Rishab and Harshit, who exchanged knowing glances.

"So, Abhishek," Rishab began, a mischievous grin playing on his lips, "have you thought about how you're going to tell Kashish?"

Abhishek chuckled nervously, his cheeks tinged with a hint of pink. "I haven't figured it out yet. I want it to be special, you know?"

Harshit nodded in understanding, his expression thoughtful. "Well, we're here to help. Let's brainstorm some ideas."

As they continued their ascent, the trio delved into a spirited discussion, brainstorming various ways for Abhishek to confess his feelings to Kashish. Laughter echoed through the forest as they exchanged anecdotes and shared their own romantic experiences.

Abhishek couldn't help but feel grateful for his friends' support and camaraderie. With their encouragement, he felt more confident about expressing his feelings to Kashish, knowing that he had a solid plan and a supportive group of friends by his side.

As the trek progressed, Abhishek's friends continued to brainstorm ideas, eager to help him express his feelings for Kashish in a memorable way.

Rishab's eyes lit up with excitement. "Hey, Abhishek, how about you sing a song ? Your talent for singing could really sweep her off her feet!"

Abhishek nodded in agreement with the idea but expressed a desire for more than just singing. "I do like the concept, but I feel like I want to do something beyond just singing. What else can I incorporate?"

Rishab scratched his head, deep in thought. "Okay, hear me out, Abhishek. What if you write a heartfelt letter to Kashish, detailing all the reasons why you admire her? You could slip it into her bag or leave it somewhere she'll find it. It's classic, romantic, and it'll give her something tangible to cherish."

Abhishek nodded appreciatively but shook his head. "It's a sweet idea, Rishab, but I want something more... unique, you know?"

Harshit snapped his fingers, a spark of inspiration in his eyes. "I've got it! What about creating a photo collage of all your memorable moments together? You could add captions or little notes expressing your feelings. It's personal, nostalgic, and it'll show Kashish just how much she means to you."

Abhishek smiled gratefully at Harshit's suggestion but hesitated. "It's a lovely idea, Harshit, but I want something that really stands out. Something that she'll never forget."

Despite their best efforts, Abhishek's friends hadn't quite hit the mark with their suggestions. However, their unwavering support and creative brainstorming sessions only fueled his determination to find the perfect way to confess his feelings to Kashish, ensuring that when the moment came, it would be nothing short of unforgettable.

Rishab snapped his fingers, a new idea forming in his mind. "How about a scavenger hunt, Abhishek? You could set up clues leading Kashish to different spots around Mussoorie that hold special meaning to both of you. It's interactive, adventurous, and it'll keep her guessing until the very end."

Abhishek's eyes widened with interest as he considered the suggestion carefully. "That's certainly creative, Rishab. I appreciate the idea, but it might take too much time to plan, and I need to confess to her tonight. Plus, we're on a college trip, so we might not have the resources to execute it. What's going on, guys? I was expecting better ideas from you."

Rishab nodded, understanding Abhishek's desire for a more intimate setting. "Got it, Abhishek. How about something more low-key, then? What if you plan a cozy candlelit dinner for just the two of you in the resort garden? You could set up a table with her favorite dishes, soft music playing in the background, and under the starry sky, you pour your heart out."

Abhishek's eyes lit up at the suggestion, picturing the romantic scene unfolding before him. "That sounds perfect, Rishab. It's intimate, romantic, and it'll give us the privacy to have a heartfelt conversation."

Harshit grinned, adding his own touch to the idea. "And to make it even more special, you could prepare some of the dishes yourself. It'll show Kashish how much effort you've put into making the evening memorable."

Abhishek's heart swelled with gratitude for his friends' suggestions. "I love it, Harshit. It'll definitely be a night to remember. However, I'll need your help, guys. We'll need to organize decorations and gather supplies for the candlelight dinner. Plus, we'll have to convince Kashish's friends, Ritika and Shreya, to lend us a hand with the confession."

Author's note : In the next part under the moonlit sky, surrounded by flickering candlelight and the gentle rustle of leaves, Abhishek poured his heart out to Kashish, confessing his love in a moment that would be etched in their memories forever.
