Crush Code: Unlocked

From day one of high school, Isha and Neil locked eyes-and something shifted. He didn't believe in love at first sight, but the way his quiet gaze lingered on her felt surreal. Like the universe hit pause.
Isha, the logical top student with no time for distractions, buried the feeling. But Neil noticed everything... her pen-tapping when nervous, her unguarded laugh, the spark in her eyes when she spoke of constellations or books.
He didn't mean to fall. But he did. Slowly, then all at once.
Isha had been silently crushing for months, pretending her heart didn't race when he brushed past or when they made eye contact. Their story wasn't loud- it was built on stolen glances, quiet understanding, and unsaid words.
When Neil finally spoke, it felt inevitable. With her, he felt seen. With him, she felt safe.
Love bloomed in late-night texts, inside jokes, and whispered truths. He showed her his scars. She listened like he mattered.
But love isn't always soft.
A whisper from Neil's past shattered their calm rumor, a ghost he thought he'd buried. Doubt crept into Isha's heart.
She pulled away.
He stayed, waiting, hoping. But she left.
And in between entered a toxic lover which, causing trouble in their already messed-up life.
Still, love lingered. In songs, old chats, and empty hallways. It never faded. It waited.
Until one rainy afternoon, they met again. No scripts. Just the truth.
They weren't who they were. They were who they'd become.
Because soulmates? They find their way back.
