Whispers of first love

THE CONFESSION

As the months went by, our relationship experienced its ups and downs. In January, we had our first major fight. Arjun had been distant, and his behavior towards me was hurtful. Despite my love for him, I found it difficult to tolerate the way he was treating me. We stopped talking after that fight, and I felt a deep sense of loss. But then, one day, he reached out to me, asking for my help. Against my better judgment, I unblocked him, and we started talking again. We managed to mend our relationship, and by February, we were back on track. On the 13th of February, Arjun surprised me by confessing his love for me. He told me I was his brightest star, and my heart soared. I had loved him for so long, and hearing those words made everything worthwhile. I accepted his proposal, and for a while, everything was perfect. We were happy, and our bond grew stronger each day. Our happiness, however, was short-lived. In April, Arjun's phone was seized by the school, and we were unable to communicate freely. We resorted to writing letters, a method that felt both old-fashioned and romantic. Despite the distance, we managed to maintain our connection, and our trust in each other only grew. By June, we had become inseparable. We spent a lot of time together, enjoying each other's company and building a relationship that felt unbreakable. We had our arguments, but they were never serious enough to tear us apart. We understood each other deeply, and that understanding was the foundation of our relationship. In September, Arjun finally got his phone back. To celebrate, we went to a restaurant, where we clicked a few pictures. One of those pictures, of us kissing, was posted online. At the time, it seemed like a harmless act, but it turned out to be a grave mistake. My parents found out about us, and they were furious. I was scolded, and in my fear and frustration, I took my anger out on Arjun. He left in anger, and I was left crying, feeling more alone than ever. Arjun later calmed me down and helped me see where I had gone wrong. My biggest fault, I realized, was my anger issues. I told him that I often didn't mean what I said when I was angry, and he understood. We tried to move past the incident and rebuild our relationship.
