Once he had heard to a song, his sister had made him listen to it (by force), and there was a lyric he loved. And though he wouldn't admit it, it was stuck in his mind. For years now.
.
There were two things constant in Ritwik's broken, messed up life-
1. That lyric
2. Jhumkas
.
He heard someone sing that lyric one day, she was wearing jhumkas.
.
Maybe, this time, his constant could be a person.

I Only Like You
A Short story that shows Love is Forever ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I said, "Look, you're like a little child who feels that the entire universe is yours." There was no response from the other side. After conversing with myself for a while, my voice grew softer and softer, and I gradually choke up, feeling extremely wronged and unappreciated. I thought in my heart - Fine, ignore me then, at most we'll just divorce. The entire journey was filled with silence. The car stopped in front of my company, and I prepared to alight. Suddenly, he grabbed hold of me and replied sullenly whilst keeping his eyes glued to the floor, "But... But I don't like this universe, I only like you." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Genre: - Romantic Comedy ~Complete

Loves Me Not
"I may not remember much, but I do know that I had the best time with you last night." Charlie drops his hand from his mouth and lifts his head to stare into my eyes, pushing his hair back from his face at the same time. "And I know this is awkward now, because I'm pretty sure we were both naked together in bed last night..." I choke on air, trying to dispel the imaginary object from my throat. Charlie reaches out and lightly grasps my hand; my eyes slide from our interlocked fingers to his shining pupils. "...but I still wouldn't change a single thing about it. So, I really do look forward to hearing from you later, Kaiydeen." It's like I've been taken hostage by his electric stare. I don't want to look away. I never want to look away. The busy noises of the street and the honking of the traffic fade as I lose focus, nothing strong enough to force my attention away from this boy. Finally, Archer loudly clears his throat as he flings his door open and plops into the car with a huff, breaking the trance between the two of us. I look away as I withdraw my hand from his grasp, trying to figure out what the hell just happened. This is going to be a long 6 months. ●●● Kaiydeen has always known what she wanted, more like who, but she never knew exactly how to get it. So she's complacent with biding her time until it, actually he, comes to her; no matter how long that takes. But then one day she crashes into someone she doesn't expect. Someone that has always had an eye for her, and he isn't satisfied with biding his time until she's his. But when the one person she's always wanted admits he wants her, too, she's forced to make a choice. Should she go for the boy she just met or the boy she's always known? There is some use of mature language in this story, so if your eyes are innocent and you want them to stay that way this might not be the story for you.

a little lower ✓
whenever he bent down a little for her to colour his lips with the chapstick, she wouldn't ever dare to look in his eyes. for she knew had she done that, she would've blundered. but today, while the younger was doing the typical for his noona, he deliberately stared at her chocolate brown depths, compelling her to stare at his own pair, that held an unusual universe with a familiar feeling. something she had never noticed before. and somehow that damned chapstick was exchanged with a delightful surprise for him, and just like two magnets their lips were attracted in a strange enchantment. hers fit like a puzzle piece with his, sending her into an immediate state of euphoria she never thought she could personally experience. the little amount of guilt and fear that she might lose him in the next moment was certainly there, but she could hardly focus on that. her stomach performed gymnastics, her heart pounded at a speed that it felt it would break open the barrier and her eyes shut close, too anxious to meet his. he's gonna hate me. but her hand resting on his chest said otherwise, for she could feel his thundering heartbeat through the fabric he wore. her eyes opened to see her reflection in his dark orbs and she was left breathless again, unable to comprehend his reaction. and a gasp left her mouth when he bent a little lower. ❦ lowercase intended. -won first place in nyctophylia awards 2021 🏆 -won third place in the trivia awards 2020 🏅 a jeon jungkook short story all rights reserved✓ DiamondMaknae © 2021Complete
