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
