The classroom hummed with the sounds of rustling papers and whispered conversations as the students settled into their seats for another day of lessons. Meera found herself seated in her usual spot, second row, third bench, next to her friend Rani.
As she unpacked her books and notebooks, Meera stole a quick glance towards the back of the room, where her crush, Lakhsya , sat in the third row, fourth bench.
"So, how did you do on yesterday's math test?" Rani asked, breaking the silence between them.
Meera's heart skipped a beat at the mention of the test. "Um, I think I did okay," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper. In truth, Meera had struggled with some of the questions, but she didn't want to worry Rani with her academic concerns.
Rani raised an eyebrow. "Just okay? Come on, Meera, you're always so hard on yourself. I'm sure you aced it."
Meera forced a small smile, grateful for Rani's unwavering support. "Thanks, Rani. I hope you're right."
Their teacher entered the classroom and began the day's lesson, Meera tried to focus on the material, but her mind kept drifting back to Lakhsya .
She couldn't help but steal glances in his direction, admiring the way he listened intently to the teacher, his brow furrowed in concentration.
"You're doing it again," Rani whispered, nudging Meera with her elbow.
Meera blushed, realizing she had been caught staring. "Sorry, I can't help it. He's just so...focused."
Rani followed Meera's gaze to where Lakhsya sat, a knowing smile playing on her lips. "Ah, I see. You've got a crush on Lakhsya , don't you?"
Meera's cheeks burned with embarrassment, and she quickly looked away. "What? No, of course not! I-I mean, he's just a classmate."
Rani raised an eyebrow, clearly unconvinced. "Sure, Meera. Whatever you say. But if you ever need someone to talk to about it, I'm here for you."
Meera nodded, grateful for Rani's understanding, even though she wasn't ready to admit the truth about her feelings for Lakhsya .
As the lesson continued, Meera tried to push her crush to the back of her mind, focusing instead on taking notes and participating in class discussions.
But no matter how hard she tried, Lakhsya's presence remains lingered in her thoughts, a constant reminder of the secret she held close to her heart. And as the day wore on, Meera couldn't shake the feeling that her carefully guarded emotions were on the verge of being discovered.

Meera sat at her desk, her pen moving over the notes she had been revising. Beside her, Rani was engrossed in solving math problems, her brow furrowed in concentration.
