AUTHOR'S POV

The bus rumbled along, its windows offering glimpses of the passing countryside. Tanvi couldn't shake the memory of Vishnu's snide remarks about her cooking. It was still fresh in her mind, like a bitter taste lingering on her tongue.

"Stop being dramatic,"
she muttered to herself, trying to calm down.
"He's just trying to get a rise out of you."
But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't shake the feeling of hurt and embarrassment.

TANVI'S POV

"So, Tanvi,"
Vishnu's voice broke through her thoughts.
"What are you most excited about for the picnic?"
I forced a smile. "I guess I'm looking forward to the games and the food."
"Oh, yeah," Vishnu replied. "I hear they're going to have a barbecue."
I nodded, trying to sound enthusiastic. But my mind was still racing with thoughts of the maggi incident.

VISHNU'S POV

I watched Tanvi's face as she tried to hide her disappointment. I knew I had gone too far with my teasing, but I couldn't resist the temptation to push her buttons.
"What's wrong?" I asked, trying to sound innocent.
Tanvi hesitated before replying. "Nothing."
I didn't believe her. "Come on, Tanvi. You can tell me."
She sighed. "It's just... I was really hoping the picnic would be fun. But now I'm not so sure."
I felt a pang of guilt. "I'm sorry, Tanvi. I didn't mean to ruin your day."
Tanvi looked at me skeptically. "Really?"
I nodded. "I promise. I'll try to be nicer."
Tanvi smiled. "Okay, I believe you."
As the bus continued its journey, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. I had finally made amends with Tanvi, and I was starting to realize that I might have feelings for her.

TANVI'S POV

The bus rumbled along, the journey still long. I looked out the window, watching the trees blur into a green haze. The anticipation for the picnic was growing, but so was my anxiety about facing Vishnu again.
"Hey, Tanvi," Vishnu's voice broke through my thoughts. "Do you want to play a game?"
I hesitated, but then I nodded. "Sure."
Vishnu pulled out a deck of cards and started shuffling.

VISHNU'S POV

I shuffled the cards, a mischievous grin spreading across my face. "Let's play Truth or Dare."
Tanvi's eyes widened. "You're serious?"
"Absolutely," I replied, winking at her. "It'll be fun."
Tanvi hesitated for a moment, but then she nodded. "Okay, but no embarrassing dares."
I chuckled. "Deal."
I drew a card and looked at Tanvi. "Truth or Dare?"
"Dare," she replied confidently.
I smirked. "I dare you to sing your favorite song."
Tanvi's face turned bright red. "No way!"
I raised an eyebrow. "Or is that a dare?"
Tanvi sighed. "Fine."
She cleared her throat and began to sing, her voice filled with a mix of embarrassment and defiance.
As Tanvi sang, I couldn't help but feel a surge of affection for her. She was so cute when she was embarrassed.
After she finished singing, I clapped enthusiastically. "That was great, Tanvi!"
Tanvi smiled, but her cheeks were still flushed. "Thanks."
I drew another card. "Truth or Dare?"
"Dare," Tanvi replied.
I grinned. "I dare you to kiss the person sitting next to you."
Tanvi's eyes widened in surprise. She looked around the bus, her gaze landing on the elderly woman sitting next to her.
"No way," she protested.
I raised an eyebrow. "Or is that a dare?"
Tanvi sighed. "Fine."
With a deep breath, she leaned over and kissed the elderly woman on the cheek.
The woman was taken aback, but she smiled warmly at Tanvi.
The other passengers on the bus burst into laughter, and Tanvi's face turned even redder. She tried to hide her embarrassment, but it was no use.
I couldn't help but laugh along with everyone else. Tanvi was so adorable when she was embarrassed.

I watched Tanvi's face again as she blushed and tried to hide her embarrassment. I couldn't help but smile. Even though she was introverted, she had a certain charm that was undeniably attractive.
"You're really cute when you're embarrassed," I teased her.
Tanvi rolled her eyes. "Shut up."
But I could see the smile peeking through her facade.
As the bus continued its journey, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was falling for Tanvi. She was everything I had ever wanted in a woman: intelligent, kind, and beautiful. And despite her introverted nature, she had a way of making me feel comfortable and at ease.
I knew that I had to find a way to let her know how I felt. But I was also afraid of rejection. What if she didn't feel the same way about me?
As I pondered these thoughts, I couldn't help but glance at Tanvi. She was looking out the window, lost in thought. I wondered what she was thinking about.
