Stranger to Stranger

🥰 LOVER TO SOULMATE 🥰

♡ The two had become girlfriend and boyfriend. They would spend hours talking on the phone, sharing everything with each other. It was like they were living a beautiful love story straight out of a movie. They had fallen deeply in love.

♡ The girl had a little problem – she would get angry very quickly. But every time, the boy would calm her down with love, treating her like a princess. Both of them were experiencing these feelings for the first time.

♡ I remember the first time I held your hand – how nervous and scared I was. And that first "I love you" you said to me, on the 28th of August. You were wearing a white shirt, and we were at the same place where we first met back in 8th grade. That day, you told me "I love you," and I blushed so much. Even thinking about it today makes me smile. After that, you said that I had just proposed u in chats and tell me toa say i love u now when i am here with u. After making me wait so long, I finally said "I love you" back and then ran away quickly, leaving you completely shocked. Neither of us had ever told our exes "I love you" because that was just attraction. But what we were feeling now was something deeper, something we didn’t yet understand. Little did we know that we would one day become very serious about each other. It was the first time we started seeing each other as soulmates, wondering how it was possible to love someone of the opposite gender this much.

■ Life becomes so beautiful when your first love from school turns out to be the right person – a boy who, in this generation, doesn’t love you for your body, doesn’t use you for timepass, but is real and loyal. Both of them felt so blessed to have found such amazing partners.

♡ They say a story isn’t the best without a twist, and just when everything was going so well, something had to happen. God brought them together and made them fall in love, but when it came time for their love to be tested, neither knew that they would fail and grow distant.

♡ The pre-boards were approaching, and before that, there were class tests. In her first math test, the girl scored average, which shocked everyone. The math teacher called her into his office and scolded her for scoring so low in math, warning her that if this continued, her board exam results would be bad too. The teacher had noticed that she and the boy spent a lot of time together, and he guessed they were in a relationship. He explained to her that it’s normal to feel these emotions at this age, but studies shouldn’t suffer because of it. He told her that they could be boyfriend and girlfriend later in life, but for now, studies should be the priority. They should study together and top the class. Otherwise, both of them would get low scores and might even fail by the time boards come.

♡ After listening to the teacher, the girl realized he was right. They weren’t able to balance the relationship and studies, and she was scared that the boy might fail because of this, or she might become an average student. So, she decided to reduce her conversations with him and focus on studies until the boards were over.

♡ Now, from my own experience, I can say that this was the girl’s biggest mistake. She didn’t share with the boy what the teacher had said. If she had told him, they could have found a solution together, and she wouldn’t have started ignoring him. If that had happened, maybe they wouldn’t have become strangers today. But, they say, experiences are important in life. The girl may have failed God’s test, but she learned a lot from the experience.

♡ One day, the boy messaged her saying that his father had scolded him for his low math score and decided that he would send him to another city for 11th grade, and he would only come back home during vacations. The girl had planned to tell him about what the teacher had said, but after hearing that he might move away, she became scared. She didn’t want him to be gone from her life forever. That was the first time both of them cried, afraid of being separated. Then the boy said that his father had told him that if he scored above 80% in his 10th board exams, he could stay in the same city and school. Hearing this, the girl made a hasty decision. She told him that since the boards were only 3 months away, they should stop talking and focus on studying. She didn’t even ask him how he felt about it – she just decided what she thought was right. She was afraid that if the boy didn’t score above 80%, he would move away forever, and she didn’t want to lose him. So, she thought that not talking for 3 months was better than losing him in the long run.

♡ And that’s where the misunderstandings between them began. The girl didn’t ask the boy what he wanted. Soon, the couple who used to sit together in class started sitting apart. The couple who used to talk for hours started controlling themselves and avoiding messages. Even in class, they ignored each other and focused on their studies.

♡ Both were hurting from the lack of communication but couldn’t say anything. The boy thought that if she didn’t want to talk, he wouldn’t force her. The girl thought they would talk again after the boards like before, but who knew that this silence would turn into the reason for their breakup?

♡ A week went by without them speaking. One day, the girl’s best friend suggested they prank call her boyfriend. Since she hadn’t spoken to him in a while, she agreed. When they called, her best friend said, “Are you single? I like you a lot. Will you be my boyfriend?” Without thinking, the boy immediately scolded her best friend and said, “I have no interest in you. I like someone else, so goodbye.”

♡ The girl was overjoyed, realizing how loyal he was. That same day, the boy messaged her, telling her about the prank call. She admitted that it was her best friend and praised him for being such a loyal boyfriend. The girl was happy, but she didn’t realize that the boy felt hurt by the prank. He thought his girlfriend didn’t trust him, and that’s why she tested him. The boy was angry but chose to stay silent, which, I can say now, was a mistake. If he had expressed his feelings then, maybe things would have turned out differently.

♡ That prank call drove a wedge between them. Afterward, the boy started ignoring her completely, acting like he didn’t even know her. The girl noticed and wanted to ask him why, but with the pre-boards coming up, she thought he was just focused on his studies. On the other side, the boy was waiting for her to ask why he was ignoring her.

♡ At night, both missed each other terribly, but during the day, they kept ignoring each other as if it didn’t matter. The girl made another mistake by choosing to ignore him back, thinking that she would only talk to him if he came forward first.

♡ The boy, meanwhile, felt that she no longer had any interest in him and that she didn’t care if he ignored her. He believed she didn’t trust him because of the prank call.

● Both started misunderstanding each other, waiting for the other to break the silence. At night, they cried missing each other, but the next day, they acted like nothing mattered.

♡ Time passed, and they stopped talking completely. Pre-boards came, and both performed well, wanting to share their results with each other. But ego got in the way. They both wanted to talk but chose to ignore each other, which was a mistake. Slowly, false stories spread about them, and instead of trusting each other, they began trusting what others said.

♡ What happened next will be shared in the next part.
