College… the place where life suddenly changes from school uniform to complete freedom.
Naye dost, naye teachers, naye experiences — aur kabhi-kabhi ek nayi love story.
Yeh kahani Aarav aur Meera ki hai.
Dono bilkul alag, par phir bhi ek perfect match.
Ek modern, relatable, real life jaisi college love story.
🎒 Chapter 1: College Ka Pehla Din – Aur Pehli Nazar
Aarav ek engineering college ka first-year student. Introvert, simple, thoda nerdy type.
Meera commerce department ki topper—confident, stylish, independent aur modern thinking wali.
Orientation day me, dono departments ka combined photo session tha.
Crowd heavy tha, but ek moment aisa aaya jab Meera Aarav ke just side me khadi thi.
Meera ne halka sa smile diya.
Aarav ke liye wo ek normal smile nahi thi—wo dil ka first notification tha.
Us din se Aarav ko lagne laga,
"Shayad college life itni boring nahi hogi."
☕ Chapter 2: The Canteen That Changed Everything
College canteen har love story ka unofficial head office hota hai.
Aarav generally corner table me baith kar apna lunch khata tha.
Ek din canteen full tha—sirf ek seat bachi thi Meera ke table par.
Aarav (nervously): “Can I sit here?”
Meera (smiling): “Of course!”
Us “of course” ne Aarav ke andar kuch shift kar diya.
Dheere-dheere dono ek hi group me lunch karne lage.
Notes sharing shuru hua… phir coffee… phir memes… phir everyday good morning messages.
Modern love story ka perfect start.
💡 Chapter 3: Friendship Se Love Ka Transition
Aarav Meera ke personality ko dekh kar impress hota gaya.
She was bold but kind, modern but grounded.
Meera ko Aarav ka simplicity aur genuine nature pasand aane laga.
Meera ke friends ka bhi doubt strong tha:
“Meera, I think he likes you.”
Meera refuse karti rahi, par heart ke andar wo bhi feel kar rahi thi.
Kabhi-kabhi small things sabse loud hoti hain.
Ek baar Meera bimaar pad gayi.
Aarav poore weekend uske hostel ke bahar fruits, medicines aur assignments le kar aata raha.
Us din Meera ko realisation hua:
“This boy is not just a friend… he cares.”
🎶 Chapter 4: College Fest – And The Moment They Realised
Annual fest ka mahol completely filmy tha—lights, music, dance, crowd.
Meera ek performance ke baad crowd me kho gayi.
Aarav ne poore campus me usse search kiya.
Finally jab usne Meera ko dekha, usne uska haath pakad liya.
Meera shocked, “You found me?”
Aarav softly, “Tum kho jao aur main na dhundhu… ho hi nahi sakta.”
Ye line seedha Meera ke heart me land hui.
Us moment ke baad unke beech ki awkward feelings clear ho gayi.
Love had already entered silently.
🌧️ Chapter 5: The Rain That Started The Love Story
Ek baarish bhari evening…
Library se nikalte waqt sudden heavy rain start ho gayi.
Dono ek chote shed ke niche ruk gaye.
Thandi hawa, rain smell, Meera ke wet hair…
Aarav ka heart race full speed.
Aarav ne finally kaha:
“Meera, mujhe… tum pasand ho. Bohot.”
Meera chup rahi. Sirf rain ki sound hi sunayi de rahi thi.
Phir Meera ne Aarav ka hand pakad kar kaha:
“Late bol diya… mujhe bhi.”
Wahi moment their love story became official.
📘 Chapter 6: Modern Love, Modern Problems
College ka final year aaya aur reality bhi.
Aarav ka placement Bangalore me hua.
Meera ka Mumbai me.
Long-distance…
Darr…
Future plans…
Career pressure…
Sab mix ho gaya.
Par dono ne decide kiya:
“We will try. Because this love matters.”
Late-night video calls, weekend surprise visits, Netflix watch parties, virtual coffee dates —
in sab ne unka bond aur strong bana diya.
Aarav ne apne communication skills improve kiye.
Meera ne apni insecurity manage karna seekha.
Modern love me efforts old-school love se kam nahi hote.

🌟 Chapter 7: The New-Age Proposal
3 saal later…
Meera Mumbai me successful financial analyst ban chuki thi.
Aarav Bangalore me software engineer.
One weekend, Aarav ne Meera ko Marine Drive bulaya.
Waha ek choti ring thi, aur Aarav ka old nervous smile.
“Meera… college me shuru hua jo, kya zindagi bhar continue kare?”
Meera emotional ho kar, tears ke saath boli:
“Yes. Forever.”
Un dono ne realise kiya ki
College love temporary nahi hota — agar efforts constant ho.
🪷 Conclusion: Modern College Love Is Rare, But Real
Aaj ke fast-paced dating culture me real love milna mushkil lagta hai.
Par kabhi-kabhi ek canteen seat, ek rainy day, ek fest…
life ki most beautiful story likh dete hain.
Aarav aur Meera ki story modern thi:
Phones, reels, busy schedules, distance — sab tha.
But feelings pure thi.
True love modern tools se chal sakta hai… par heart values old-school hi hoti hain.
