"The more you try to hide your feelings for someone the harder you fall for them"

-Anonymous

Shaina stepped into the college campus with a beaming smile. She flipped her hair back and gave the college raging team the seniors a faltering smile.

Shaina's renowned charm has always brought her proposals and the daily orchids were the part of the same thing she thought.

But there was something special about the beautiful white orchids. She got it from the very first day of the college and the sender didn't break the trance yet.

There was a place where she always waited for them, the Great Grandpa a.k.a the old oak tree. First day of college Shaina got the flowers right under this tree. For days these orchid came her way when she was waiting under the tree for her friends, after that she herself stood there awaiting the flowers from him.

She never knew who he was, always she got the flowers through a random junior. Everyday a different person. Sometimes a girl sometimes a guy. She tried knowing from them who sent these but none would utter a single word.

Somehow with the daily flowers and the mesmerizing quote attached to it Shaina had fallen head over heels for him. She is waiting for the day when he will show up and say her that he loves her. Even if he is an eighty kilo globe I will accept him, because I love his heart, I love him not his looks. That is what she says to all her friends who make fun of him.

But for today something unusual happened she didn't receive her favorite white orchids, she was unhappy,she was sad. What happened? Why didn't he send me the flowers? What if something happened to him? Something serious? These were the thoughts running in Shaina's mind.

She awaited the flowers and the note for a ten more minutes and then gave up. She was sad, her heart was broken,she wanted to cry. Over her two years of colleging he didn't fail to send her flowers. What happened today? Today is the starting of the Valentine's week,when eveyrbody else is getting a rose, everybody is getting lucky but Shaina, the girl considered as the luckiest of all is heart broken?

Fate.

"Shanu!! Look Pete gave me a rose. Signifying that he loves me."Rebecca jumped in front of Shaina. Happiness was overflowing in her face. Shaina forced a smile on her face. Rebecca understood that there was something wrong.

"What's wrong Shaina? What happened you look like you're gonna cry any moment."She pressed Shaina's shoulder.

"He. . I. .I didn't get the flowers today."Shaina broke down. She poured all the burden iside her heart onto Rebecca's shoulder. Rebecca just held her and mumbled soothing words into Shaina's ears.

"It's okay baby,he might have got some work, chill"Shaina faced Rebecca with a stern expression.

"Its been two years Rebecca two freakin years all these years I got the flowers without any delay,he didn't fail to send them. What happened today huh? When everybody else is getting flowers and stuff I'm not getting. Why does God take all happy things away from me?Why me?" Shaina blew up. To Rebecca's surprise Shaina never lost her temper.

"I still didn't break my routine Shana" a voice beamed from behind. The whole corridoor fell silent, it felt as if the whole Nottingham Trent University was shut down. Everybody wanted to know who was Shaina's secret admirer, and today when it is revealed all of them where shocked.

They didn't expect him to be the person. Not Anshuman. Not him. that is what everyone thought right now.

"Anshumann?" Shaina couldn't believe her eyes. She always had a strong liking towards Anshumann but all the way she was in love with her admirer, she was not ready to believe that.

"Yes its me Shaina. I wanted to say you this from the first day I met you but just restrained myself from doing so. I know I'm stupid for sending you these flowers without even revealing my identity. But we are Indian's we need some drama in our life" the was a smirk playing on his face. He had a rose in his hand.

Little did Shaina wanted Anshumann to be that person. Her friends used to make fun of her when she dreamed about Anshumann being her secret admirer. Now that is true she so wanted to laughat her friends.

"Shana this time its a rose. For my rose. From the bottom of my heart"he kneeled down and put the rose forward.

"Anshumann. . .I..thank you soo much for making my life beautiful."
