Loving You From Afar

Some stories don't start with something big.

They start with small things.
A seat in a classroom.
A notebook that never gets finished.
A pencil that was never returned.

Aditya never really lost anything all at once.
People just... left.
Conversations got shorter.
Moments passed before he could say anything.

And somehow, that became normal.

This isn't a love story.
Not the kind you expect.

It's about the things that almost happened.
The words that stayed unspoken.
And how some feelings don't go away,
even when nothing ever really began.
