Day we met

Chapter 19- Mia feelings

I had been sneezing badly ever since I returned from my hometown. When Mia came to check on me, I accidentally sneezed right in her face.

"Did you take any medicine?" she asked. Mia knows I hate taking medicine for small reasons, but she asked anyway,

"No," I replied.

"Is it because of the water change?" she asked, furrowing her brows.

"I think so, but I'm not sure," I gurgled. Mia always worries about me, even though I'm not suffering from any severe health issues.

"Wait, I'll bring some medicine for you," she said, about to leave. I grabbed her hand to stop her.

"Don't worry, I'll be alright within two days," I assured her, not wanting to make her worry. But then, I sneezed again.

"If it continues like this, you'll sneeze to death," she scoffed and left. After some time, she came back with medicine. I initially refused to take it, but she insisted, and I eventually gulped down the medicine she brought.

Since I met Mia, my life has completely changed from the monotonous routine it used to be. She's a kind-hearted person who has wrapped me in her affection, always there for me in difficult times. Her presence has made a significant difference, bringing warmth and care into my life that I never knew

A small support is enough to conquer every hurdle in our life. The one who truly cares for us never leaves us behind... She never left my side. She gave me the courage to fight with my difficulties. When I was engulfed with darkness she became light in it. She brought changes in my life.

I recalled Saakshi and how she had worried about me when I fought for her at Myrah's reception. Anyone might have stepped in to defend a friend in that situation, but her genuine concern and the way she looked at me with anxiety in her eyes made me feel something I hadn't felt in a long time- someone truly cared about me. It wasn't just a fleeting moment of concern; it was sincere.

Whenever I leave for somewhere, I'm usually on my own. My family never sees me off; it's always been a solitary experience. But a few days ago, something changed. Saakshi came to the station to see me off. No one had ever done that for me before. She was the first. As I stood on the platform, watching her wave goodbye, a strange sense of happiness washed over me. I wasn't used to this kind of attention or care, and it made me feel unexpectedly good

I appreciated her presence more than she might ever realize. It was a small gesture on her part, but it meant the world to me. At that moment, I felt a connection, a sense of being valued and cared for. And for someone who often felt alone and misunderstood, that meant everything.

We planned a Holiday trip to the nearby beach, eager to escape the monotony of daily life. Upon arrival, the rhythmic sound of the waves and the refreshing sea breeze instantly lifted our spirits. We played in the water until we were completely exhausted, our laughter echoing along the shoreline.

Mia, always full of energy, pulled me into the water twice, I splashed water back at her, and soon we were in a full-blown water fight, completely ignoring the chatter of others around us.

"I'm famished. I wish I'd brought some snacks," Mia said after a while, looking a bit sheepish.

Smiling, I handed her the snacks I had packed earlier. "You're so considerate, Ric," she chuckled, her eyes lighting up. She started munching on them and insisted I join her. I initially refused, wanting to save them for her, but she stuffed some into my mouth, laughing at my startled expression.

Then Mia's friend approached and asked her to join her for a walk. Mia looked at me for my approval, and I nodded. "Come and join us," Mia invited me, but her friend quickly interjected, "Sorry Mia, I have something private to share with you."
