Arvind was a quiet, introverted individual who needed a push to open up and converse with others. On the other hand, Pooja was an extrovert who immediately connected with everyone in their class.
Despite their differences, they found themselves working together on a college project and their conversations gradually became easier.
As the project ended, Arvind and Pooja knew that their time together was limited. Arvind wanted to make the most of their last day and leave a lasting impression on Pooja.
Despite being surrounded by many people, he had developed a particular interest in Pooja and considered her his “Smile Maker.” She was always there for him, even in the toughest of situations, and brought a smile to his face.
So, on their final day, Arvind decided to give Pooja the best farewell gift he could — a hand chain. When she got on the bus, he noticed that she looked sad and knew that he would miss her dearly.
He tried to lighten the mood by giving her a smile, but she could tell he was feeling down. She was touched by the gift, but not completely surprised. They chatted a bit before the bus began moving.
Suddenly, Arvind remembered that Pooja loved KitKat bars. He quickly ran to the store to buy one for her, but by the time he returned, the bus was already pulling away.
Undeterred, he chased after the bus and was able to give her the KitKat at a red traffic light. She scolded him for running after the bus, but he smiled and told her, “I will miss you a lot.” With a heavy heart, he got off the bus and took a long walk, knowing that this would be their last goodbye.
Arvind and Pooja may have been different in many ways, but their bond was unbreakable. Despite their brief time together, they left a lasting impression on each other and their memories will forever be cherished.
