At the Library
**"Why do books fascinate you so much?" Aryan asked, his curiosity piqued as he watched Anjali examine the shelves.**
**"Why does photography fascinate you?" she countered, glancing back at him with a playful smile.**
**"Because photography allows us to capture memories," he replied, his eyes lighting up at the thought.**
**"Exactly! Books do the same thing. They hold onto memories that people forget. Why do we write in diaries? It's because sometimes we can't express our feelings to others," she explained, her passion evident as she moved toward another bookshelf.**
**Aryan watched her, captivated not just by her words but by the way she lit up while talking about something she loved. "How many books do you have? What's your favorite?" he asked, following her.**
**"I have a lot! Every book carries a message," she said, her fingers gently tracing the spines of the books. "When I read them, it's like I get lost in those stories."**
**"Wow, that sounds amazing," Aryan said, genuinely impressed. "Can you share one of your favorite books?"**
**Anjali paused, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "I have one—*The Alchemist.* The message in it is profound. Chasing your dreams and fulfilling them has always been important to me."**
**Aryan nodded, feeling a sense of connection as they shared their thoughts. "I love that book too! I thought I was the only one who enjoyed chasing dreams like that."**
**As they continued exploring the library, Anjali's excitement only grew, while Aryan found himself drawn closer to her, their conversation flowing effortlessly.**
**As Aryan was adjusting the settings on his camera, a sudden thought crossed Anjali's mind. She moved closer, snatched the camera from his hands, and grinned.
"Hey, Aryan, give that back!" Aryan insisted, playfully chasing after her through the quiet aisles of the old library.**
**"Ha ha! I want to see what kind of pictures you take, Mr. Photographer!" she teased, glancing back at him.**
**"Anjali, please!" He was both surprised and thrilled by her playful spirit, yet the urge to reclaim his camera surged within him. It held the candid pictures he'd taken of her—moments she didn't even know he had captured.**
**"If you can catch me, then maybe!" she challenged him, her eyes sparkling with mischief.**
**"You challenge Aryan Taneja? Just remember, if I catch you, I won't let you go," he replied confidently, the thrill of the chase igniting a fire within him.**
**"Haha, we'll see about that!" she shot back, darting ahead. Just as she turned to look back, Aryan lunged forward, catching her wrist and pinning her gently against a nearby bookshelf.**
