Dear Evelyn

For the record, I really don't know what I am doing here, writing this but I just wanted to do something. I mean I couldn't just sit and keep thinking how it must be for you over there right now. Perhaps the reason why I am writing this is maybe because there were a lot of stuff that didn't get to be cleaned between us and I figured it would be fair to get some of those things off my chest. Plus you always liked my writing so yeah, I figured this might be the only only way to say it.

I know I haven't been perfect for you. I know I have made mistakes. I know I have hurt you. But I have also loved you. Maybe I might have loved you more than myself, although that would be a bit of an overstatement but the thing is, what I have felt with you, I have never felt it with anyone else. And I don't think I will ever feel that way again.

I know this world will end for you. But it doesn't have to end miserably. I want it to end with an explosion. A magical explosion of all the different colors that define you. For you are the rainbow that made my life a little bit more colorful and I hope that I will be able to return the favor to you before you go.

Yours ever so truthfully,

Kriyank.

P.S. There is also something else that I have added here which I figured you might like -

A world filled with darkness,

A world filled with light.

Which am I a part of ?

I shall never know.

If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Then you came, without a word.

Taking me by your sweet grace,

into the world defined by you,

A world ever so growing, A world ever so glowing,

Into your heart.

Stars colliding, Hearts breaking.

For I could only see the colors,

All the colors of your heart.

That kept brightening into the vast.

“Hi I am Evelyn.” She said.

“Hii, I am Shreya.”

“Hi, I am Sujitha.”

“Hi, I am Vijesh.”

“Hi, I am Sunil.”

“Hi, I am Kriyank.” he said.

“So where did you study before ?” Vijesh asked.

“I studied at Grisha International.” she said.

“Ohh nice, that's the one near Shivjipura right ?” Sujitha asked.

“Yeah yeah, there only.” She replied.

“So how come you transferred here ?” he asked.

She shrugged. “ I don't know. Dad just wanted a change of scenery I suppose.”

“So how do you like our school so far ?” Sunil asked.

“It seems good......I mean the teachers seem decent enough. At least compared to my old school.” she said.

“Yea just wait for another two months and then you will get to see their true faces.” Sunil said and they all laughed.

“So you guys have been studying here since the beginning ?” She asked.

“Yeah bro.” Vijesh replied. “ This school started only two years back ; from sixth standard and that was when we had all joined.”

“Ohh nice nice.” She replied.

“So where do you stay ?” he asked her.

“Ohh, I stay near Devnagiri.” When she saw the look of confusion on his face she let out a little laugh, “It's actually to the right of Forum mall in Church street.” she explained.

“Ohh.” he replied.

He could see her smile, a smile that is brighter than the sun. Her eyes, as excited as a little girl when she finds a plush toy. How could someone like her, be standing right in front of him? he wondered. Was it just coincidence or was it meant to be ? The call of the great unknown forces of nature existing in the universe ?

How did it all lead to this ?

“Hey, you should come to Baskin Robbins with us, this Sunday.” Shreya suggested, her voice interrupting his thoughts.

“Yeah yeah sure.” she replied, with a laugh.
