Stranger to Stranger

Both Hate Each Other

♡ Just 15 days were left until the board exams began. Both of them focused intensely on studying. The girl would study diligently all day, but every night, she would question God, asking, “Why did this breakup happen when everything was going so well? What was my fault? How did I hurt him? How did he change so much? Is this really the end of our story? Why did I get such a sad ending? Did he ever love me?”

♡ Although she tried to stay focused on her studies, memories of him would still cross her mind. The board exams started, and both of them performed well. However, neither achieved the goal they had set for themselves at the start of 10th grade.

♡ It was the day of the last board exam. That day, I saw you, and I thought it would be the last time I would see you. I even tried to talk to you, but you walked away without a word. After that, I went to the temple, asking God for forgiveness. I said, “I don’t know what my mistake was, but please don’t take him away from me. I want to share happy times with him again. I feel that he’s the one meant for me. Please listen to my prayer and don’t let him go away from me. I love him, and I’ll always love him.”

♡ God seemed to have listened to her. The boy was supposed to leave for higher studies in 11th grade, but his parents changed their decision, allowing him to stay at the same school. When the girl heard this, she was overjoyed. She thought that now they could talk, and if she spoke to him with love, everything would be alright again.

♡ During the vacation, the girl tried calling and messaging him several times, but he had blocked her. She wanted to know what he truly thought, whether his love was real or just a lie, and why he had changed so much. She decided to make a fake account and talk to him to understand his feelings.

♡ She created a fake account, sent him a friend request, and he accepted. She spoke to him like a stranger for two days, lying to ensure he wouldn’t recognize her.

♡ Then she asked, “Do you have a girlfriend?” He replied, “No, I don’t.” She asked if he had a best friend, to which he replied, “Yes, I used to have one, but she’s not my best friend anymore.” The girl understood he was talking about her. She asked why they weren’t friends anymore.

♡ The boy explained, “That girl had no time for me. She always ignored me, and then expected me to reach out to her, ask her what was wrong, and console her. She changed first, but accused me of changing. I don’t like her at all anymore. There are many girls like her who will come into my life; she wasn’t special. I hate her.”

♡ Hearing this, the girl forgot she was using a fake account. She replied, “I tried so many times to explain myself to you, to reach out to you. I kept a distance for three months only because I didn’t want to lose you forever. And I’m not special? You think your love was all a lie?” The boy replied, “Now you’re talking to me from a fake account? How far will you go for me? I have no interest in talking to you or hearing any explanation from you. Don’t try to contact me again, or I might raise my hand against you. Goodbye forever.” He blocked her after that.

♡ The girl was furious. She thought, “When did I ever not have time for him? I always cared about him, but now he’s threatening to hit me? This isn’t the Arav I fell in love with; I hate him now. It would’ve been better if I’d never made him my boyfriend.”

♡ Both were angry with each other, and hatred grew between them. They didn’t want to understand each other anymore. Though they still loved each other, they couldn’t handle the relationship, and it had become toxic.

♡ They both accepted that they weren’t meant to be together, and they saw their first love as the biggest mistake of their lives. They thought everything was over, yet deep down, they still felt love for each other—a love they wouldn’t admit. Now, all they wanted was to stay away from each other, filled with resentment.

♡ Will they ever speak to each other again? Is this the end of their story, or is there another twist? Find out in the next episode.
