Almost Yours

She never expected her second year of engineering to change everything. Alia, a quiet Maharashtrian girl, only wanted a fresh start. But then she saw him— Arjun, the charming boy from Rishikesh who made the entire class laugh, who flirted too easily, who always seemed just out of reach. At first, it was harmless. A smile exchanged during the class representative elections. A few teasing words in the corridor. But soon, every time he spoke to another girl, her chest burned with something she couldn’t explain. And then, one night, he cornered her. Her confession slipped out—raw, trembling, desperate. But his answer wasn’t what she had dreamed of. "I like you, Alia… but I’m not ready for a relationship." Now, she is trapped between the butterflies he gives her and the knife of his rejection. And the more she tries to stay away, the more she finds herself falling deeper into his dangerous charm. Because sometimes, love doesn’t heal you. Sometimes, it ruins you.
