Kiaan's POV
I went to this book store near our school everyday after my basketball classes. But today I didn't have any so I just decided to go and read a new book.
But I accidently bumped into Ira. Wait is she also a regular here?
I was staring at her and she suddenly looked at me and if you accidentaly ever just make an eye contact with the girl you like you just get lost.
She smiled awkwardly at me, I didn't know what say.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRSwfoMbHT
"Hi, Kiaan" she said, slightly waving of her hand.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6ht8xcR9m
"Hey" my voice was slightly trembling with nervousness.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9tUSSyIkT
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Muc0HJVuk
That moment of awkwardness quickly faded away, as she started bombarding me with questions. I asked her if she would like to grab a coffee. She hesitated for a moment, but then agreed. So we sat down at a cafe near our school and she started bombarding me again.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4MHTRkfEH

I was so nervous but talking about my love for books and my favorite authors, I felt comfortable. Ira was all too eager to share her thoughts about the books she read before.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mf04l92zf
"So which is your favorite book?" she asked.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6VxPyjqJV
"I am particularly obsessed with 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen" she said353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Y1IVmi7q8
353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlI7rfuU63
We both had long conversation about the books with liked. Our taste in books was completely opposite from each-other. But still she happily listened to it.
Ira told me about some of her favourite books and the various adaptations that have been made of it . I felt really happy seeing Ira so happy while talking about the books. I was enjoying the conversation and wanted it to last forever.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlcFshhTym

I felt a connection with Ira to an extent that was hard to explain. I wanted to talk to her more, but she excused herself, saying that she had to go somewhere.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInAKZxB45X
While I was still trying to digest my feelings for her, when she said goodbye and left.
Ira's POV
I felt a bit uncomfortable after I realised what I was doing. When I first met Kiaan I thought he was an ordinary classmate, but after our conversation a month ago It felt like he was not. I felt like we could be bestfriends, but then again I didn't want to.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuoMxw8Qxp
I almost told him everything about me. It felt like history was repeating itself all over again.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYj1RcKg2r
That evening, I was still thinking about the time spend with Kiaan, I felt like I should have stayed for longer.
Author's POV
Ira laid in bed with a thousand emotions running through her head.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjP4GdI646
Meanwhile Kiaan was still trying to make sense of his emotions too.
He realized he liked Ira, but was scared of how Ira felt about him. He too felt embarrassed for sharing his feelings for Ira.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFiXdxv4DM

The next day at school, the two sat down together at lunch. They both smiled shyly at each other and then started talking about books and authors.
It was obvious that Kiaan was interested in Ira, but Ira was was completely unaware about Kiaan's feeling.353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxskbafT3F1
The conversation went from one book to another, and it felt like nothing had changed in the past 24 hours.
They both were still discussing books and authors, but it felt so much more intimate this time. It felt like they were lost in their own world, talking candidly about their passions and dreams.
Kiaan looked at Ira and slowly asked her,353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74H5N62UdE
"Hey, do you think we could meet again and grab coffee sometime? I want to know more about you"353Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWYgJgLGyY
Ira was taken aback by this, she looked at Kiaan and said "Sure, I'll see if I can manage that"
