Her Choice
Updated: Jul 3
It was just another normal day at college until lunch break, because out of nowhere he came and stood before me proposing in the corridor that led to our class. It was unbelievable to even realise how the moment I had wished for years didn’t make any difference when it really happened.
We had been friends since the first year of our bachelor’s, and it was no secret that I admired him so much that all our friends teased us about our dynamic from the first semester itself.
He honestly had a lasting impression on me ever since we first met. Maybe I was too gullible back then, or maybe he had a vibe that made me feel I was pretty close to him for no reason, and life felt like a fairy tale with love in the air.
In the first year, I didn’t say a word but always hoped he would propose, but he didn’t. In the second year, my love for him kept growing, and my hopes were off the charts, considering we were now seniors and couples kept popping up every day in our class, but he didn’t. Not wanting to waste a single day in our third year, I proposed on the very first day of our fifth semester, but to my surprise, he mentioned that I wasn’t the love of his life.
