It was the day of the long-awaited farewell party for the high school seniors. After months of gruelling schedules and relentless studying, the students were eager for a night of fun and relaxation. However, Rohit, the class topper, wasn't particularly enthused. For him, it was just another ordinary day. Unlike his classmates who spent hours shopping for the perfect outfit, Rohit didn't bother. He felt perfectly comfortable in his familiar, casual clothes, the same ones he wore to every birthday party.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0Mjvi57Cp
The venue was decorated with delicate lights casting a warm glow all over the place. Colorful balloons were arranged gracefully on the walls giving the shades of different colors. A subtle scent of roses filled the air with an inviting atmosphere. The party was about to start when the students started gathering, their noise filled with excitement and eagerness. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcl1oQDNcS
Natasha, a decent-looking girl, was wearing a pink coloured top coupled with midnight black jeans, along with stylish strappy black heels. Her purse was casually hanging from her shoulder making her presence more enlightening. Her demeanour cast a spell of genuine joy and playfulness and brightened the venue more than the decorative lights did. Rohit was dressed in a plain yellow hoodie and blue jeans. His quiet and reserved demeanour set him apart from the more extroverted people around him. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEY7yuhmqps
He was drawing comfort from his own company and was lost in his thoughts when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a radiant smile, creating a ripple of joy reaching him even from a distance. He was drawn towards the effortless grace and the beauty of happiness of the smile of a girl standing a few meters away. As he was captivated by the dreams he was having of himself and her, an announcement struck his ears, jolting him out of his daydreams.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQef1wKAJ9C
“Please give a big round of applause for a girl with the cutest of smiles, Natasha on the stage. She will have to perform a task as per the chit picked up by her.” 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9itC02yYbz
Rohit's heart skipped a beat when he saw Natasha walking towards the stage. Her walk was gentle and unhurried. Her smile cast a glow on her face. With each footstep of her, Rohit could feel his heartbeat racing. He was almost at the edge of his chair and thumping in his chest was deafening his ears. Natasha walked towards a jar filled with folded chits and picked up a random chit. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cDGdn7siZ
“Sing a song,” She read the task written on it. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFUGsE6nea
Everyone around her cheered. She looked around and saw Rohit who was standing silent between the enthusiastic crowd.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPoOuIANpB
“I am going to sing my favourite song. Please bear my voice,” she murmured, holding the mic in her right hand.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWyb71UyTQ
Rohit, standing motionless on the edge of his chair, could feel that he was falling more and more in for her with each passing moment. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTJZG8oGdD
He muttered to himself, “I have never felt these emotions anytime before. Should I tell her what I feel? ”220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8T4ztX2iQ
Under the dim lights of the stage, she started singing the song.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhXQbS43CD
“In the dark night sky, he searched for sun
His was an illusion that she was the one
Her smile for him was a light so bright
Guiding him through the darkest night
His presence for her was just twilight,
A presence of warmth barely in sight”220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiW4rlZUhv
Her voice cast a spell on Rohit leaving him speechless. He took a deep breath and said to himself under his breath, “What were the odds of her singing my favourite song on the stage? This is one of the best memories of my life,” he smiled at the sight of the very moment. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXM3CHPLw6
As Natasha was on her way back to her place after her performance, Rohit's gaze followed her footsteps moving gracefully along the carpet and with an air of nonchalance, her hair glowed in the lights as she passed by. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINNZs6FgSk
Many performances followed, but Rohit was standing motionless, spellbound by the sight of her. He was standing enthralled by the thoughts of Natasha, singing his favourite song. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTJlKgSDiF
As he was lost in his thoughts, he heard the voice of a girl approaching him from behind, “Rohit, everyone dancing Why are you standing alone?” Natasha asked in an energetic voice.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6byCeAfhFc
Rohit looked behind him and saw Natasha standing with a cute smile on her face. He was drawn into a spell of shyness. Rohit knew that he was too shy to dance in front of everyone. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHoeQhDbPM
All of a sudden, the song sung by Natasha started playing. She chuckled, “Come now, it's my favourite song. Won't you dance with me on my favourite song?” 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSbYHjctX6
Rohit could not believe that the girl of his dreams was calling him to dance with him. He thought, “How should I tell her that it's my favourite song too but I do not feel comfortable dancing in front of so many people.”220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlvhxjSFVG
Before he could reply, Natasha grabbed his hand and took him to the dancing crowd. She smiled at Rohit, “Let’s dance” and started dancing holding Rohit's hand.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYU3U8odlji
Rohit looked into her eyes and thought, “Does she have any feelings for me the way I have for her?220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoxJG0toP6
