Journey of Love : Chapter 1: Unexpected Encounters

The train station buzzed with activity as Arjun and his friends gathered their belongings, ready to embark on their week-long trip to Calcutta. The early morning sunlight cast a golden glow over the bustling platform, creating a sense of anticipation in the air. Arjun adjusted his backpack, excitement coursing through his veins as he scanned the crowd for their train.

As they boarded the train and found their seats, Arjun couldn't help but feel a sense of eagerness for the adventures that lay ahead. His friends chatted animatedly, discussing their plans for the trip, but Arjun's attention was drawn to a lone figure sitting a few rows ahead.

There she was, Latha, surrounded by an assortment of art supplies. Her dark hair cascaded in loose curls around her shoulders, and her eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief as she focused intently on her sketchpad. Arjun found himself inexplicably drawn to her, his curiosity piqued by her solitary presence amidst the throngs of travelers.

With a newfound sense of boldness, Arjun approached Latha, his heart pounding in his chest. "Excuse me," he said, clearing his throat nervously. "Mind if I join you?"

Latha looked up, a warm smile spreading across her face. "Not at all," she replied, gesturing to the empty seat beside her. "I could use some company."

As Arjun settled into the seat beside her, he couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement at the prospect of getting to know this intriguing stranger. Little did he know that this chance encounter would mark the beginning of an unforgettable journey.

A cry not heard!

Cent story 17: Love like rain

Rain poured softly the day Krishna first saw Purvi—draped in yellow, lighting incense at the Ganapati pandal. Their eyes met like a prayer answered. Thunder rolled, but all he heard was her laughter. From borrowed umbrellas to shared street-side chai, their story bloomed. Every rain after felt like a song only they understood. When they wed under cloudy skies, even the priest smiled, “Blessed by Bappa Himself.” Years passed, but every drizzle pulled them back to that pandal, that glance, that moment. Love, like rain, sometimes arrives quietly—soaking deep, leaving music in its wake. Krishna and Purvi were always meant to be.
