My name is Sameer, and my heart belongs to Anjali, the girl who turned
my world into a love song. I'm in my third year of engineering, and
she's in her third year of B.Com, studying in a city far from mine.
Miles separate us, and though we've never met, our souls are entwined
through late-night chats and shared dreams. Her voice, soft and
hopeful, often asks, "Sameer, when will I see you?" My heart aches to
hold her close, to see her smile in person, but I have no answer yet.
Life keeps us apart, but love keeps us together. Let me take you
through our story—a tale of two hearts beating as one.
February 1, 2014
It was the day my life changed. A friend request appeared on Facebook,
from a girl named Anjali. I wasn't one to accept strangers' requests,
so I messaged her, curious, "Do we know each other?" Her reply was
like a breeze from the past—she was my classmate in sixth grade,
before I moved to another state. She remembered every detail about me,
but my memory of her was hazy. Still, she didn't insisting I recall
those days, and our chats began, gentle and warm, like the first rays
of dawn.
In school, I was a shy, proud boy, but now I was carefree and playful.
Anjali was surprised by this new me, and I was enchanted by her. We
laughed over memories of school, teachers, and friends, teasing each
other in playful debates. I loved romantic stories but had sworn off
love, fearing I'd hurt someone. Yet, Anjali was different. She was a
burst of sunlight—adventurous, bold, and full of life. She loved
sports, wrote poetry, and sketched with a passion that stole my
breath. I was falling for her, but I buried those feelings deep,
afraid to let my heart speak.
April 2014
I was swept into the chaos of my cousin's wedding, leaving little time
for social media. Anjali, meanwhile, was teaching part-time during her
college break, her days filled with purpose. Late at night, after
exhausting wedding preparations, I'd find her messages waiting, each
one a spark that lit up my world.
