His outgoing nature drew people to him, while his responsible and caring side earned respect. His life is about to take an unexpected turn when someone unexpected entered his life. ✯✯✯✯✯✯✯✯ ✰ 𝐈𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐯𝐢 𝐊𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐨𝐫: A vibrant student, radiated warmth and energy.

She asked as soon as she reached the football ground. Her eyes scanning the whole ground only to see him but he is nowhere to be found. (Where is he? I am not able to find him) "Kisse dhund rhi ho tum?" A voice behind her spoke, following her eyes. (Whom are you looking for?). "Mere Krish ko." She replied answered, unawared of who is standing behind her. (My Krish) "Tumhara krish?" "Ha mera kris-" she turned around the person and to her shock it was krish, or should we say her Krish, looking handsome as usual, is now staring directly in her eyes with a smile. The time seemed to be stopped for both of them as they stare in each other's eyes.
