Write-A-Thon Season 4 Story – Team 4 (Adults)

Amara thought she was alone in the school library when she heard a soft thud behind her. Turning around, she saw her classmate, Rahul, searching for a book on the bookshelf, and accidentally, he dropped his notebook over there. Sensing Amara’s gaze, he made a sorry sign, thinking she got disturbed by his presence. But for Amara, it was the best sight, as he was her crush, a one-sided love. She was constantly seeing his movements, without sensing that he had approached near her to sit on a chair next to Amara’s. She felt her cheeks blushing and an adrenaline rush.

From Reluctance to Passion – My Journey with Writing

Sometimes, what you despise can change you for the better if you actually try it. I don’t know why, but I used to hate writing. It just wasn’t my cup of tea. I was always a practical kid, surrounded by close-minded people, so I never really got a chance to explore what writing was.
