Chapter 21 Sunshine

N I T I K A

As I stepped off the bike, my cheeks flushed with embarrassment. I hadn't even noticed we'd stopped.

How strange it feels, I like bikers but sitting on the bike feels a little bit scary.

"Wow!" I breath.led, taking in the breathtaking view.

The lake's serene waters reflected the sunset's golden hues. Birds sang their evening songs, and the sky transformed into a kaleidoscope of colors.

Avyaan's gaze lingered on me, his eyes crinkling at the corners.

"You liked the ride?" he asked.

I turned, smiling.

"Except for the scary parts," I teased.

"Huh!"

"Those were the best parts," he said.

"Let's watch the sunset," he said.

I nodded.

We walked to the lake's edge, The sky ablaze with colors. We stood there, mesmerized by the sunset's splendor. Avyaan 's presence beside me felt comforting, like a warm embrace that enveloped my soul.

Nitika's eyes sparkled as she gazed out at the lake's serene waters. "I should take a picture," she exclaimed, pulling out her phone.

Avyaan watched, amused, as she clicked away, capturing the sunset's fading hues.

Without drawing attention to himself, Avyaan slipped out his own phone. A sly smile spread across his face.

"I should take my sunshine's picture," he whispered to himself.

He began snapping photos of Nitika, her radiant profile illuminated by the dwindling light.

Lost in her photography, Nitika remained oblivious.

"Isn't it beautiful?" she asked.

Avyaan's gaze lingered on her. "Yes, it is," he replied.

But his words weren't directed at the view. In his eyes, Nitika was a breathtaking sight.

Another photo captured.

Nitika is still unaware.

"Avyaan, look!" she said showing her phone.

Avyaan lowered his phone "W-what?" he stuttered.

Their eyes met.

"Look what a good picture I took!" She said with a grin.

"Ohh nice!" He replied.

"It's pretty!" She said.

"My sunshine is prettiest!" He whispered to himself.

Nitika settled onto the grassy bank, patting the spot beside her. "We should sit."

Avyaan joined her, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he smiled.
