The Love Untold

By Abhijith Nair Ac

Manu was an introvert who lived in Delhi who is too shy to even approach the people around him even if they are his classmates. Manu had an amazing talent to write and he has always dreamt of being an author. His mother always used to tell him that if he wants his dream to happen, then he need to work for it by getting out of his comfort zones and talking to people and understanding about them

One day Manu’s cousin sister Diya visits him. She knows him much better and his dream for writing. So she asked him to start an Instagram account and start a page for his writings so he can publish his talent on the platform. Manu got excited about his idea because he can make his first account private in it so that he don’t have to talk to people and also at the same time can publish his works.The next day he heard the sudden demise of his favourite actor Sushant Singh Rajput and he decided to write about him.

After he completed writing he decided to tag his sister. Unfortunately he tagged her name as Diyana and another girl got tagged and he didn’t know about it until that person texted him asking about him. Manu got very scared and he started to panic. He was comforted after some time when he realised he doesn’t need to talk to her face in it.

So he texted her about what happened and to his surprise the girl sent him the laugh imojis and told him it was fine. And she initiated the conversation asking about him and his life. Manu felt so satisfying when he was talking to her .It was at first very hard for Manu to start telling about his life. After some days Manu started to initiate the conversation as he was pretty happy to share every detail of his life to her. Diyana was the total opposite of Manu as she was an extrovert ,and she was so talkative who lived in Varanasi .Two months went by until Manu realised that he has started developing feelings for Diyana .But he made it sure that he will tell his heart out directly. Diyana made Manu be comfortable in the conversation and also she adviced easy tips for him to approach people. Manu would try the tips at school.He even published an essay on the school magazine .He started talking to people. And he started getting out of his comfort zone.

Months passed by and one day Manu decided to tell his heart to Diyana.To his surprise he was even confident to tell that to her without even backing off. At the same time he started to embrace the fact of being comfortable around her. And he asked himself whether he should really go for it.He realised the fact that a friendship with the person who made him step out of his comfort zone was far better than a relationship. So he dissolved those feelings in him and he remained friends with her after school too.

When his sister heard the tale of his brother she laughed so much .Later she told him she was so happy for him as he published his writings. She also assured him that friendship with Diyana would cease more comfort to him as it’s the most beautiful relationship. Manu and Diyana even met after a long time and they remained close after that too realising the fact that they are not just “Online friends” anymore.
