BOLD ENOUGH TO LOVE HIM
EPISODE 1
Stellar institute of science
The campus buzzed with life as students hurried between classes, their laughter and chatter echoing through the wide, tree-lined pathways. Sunlight spilled over the modern glass-and-brick buildings, glinting off the polished walkways. Groups of friends gathered near the fountain in the courtyard, while others sat on benches, flipping through books or scrolling on their phones. The air smelled faintly of freshly cut grass and coffee from the nearby café, making the campus feel alive yet welcoming. It was the kind of place where everyone seemed to belong, yet mysteries and new faces promised stories waiting to unfold.
The first day of college was supposed to be normal... But nothing felt ordinary.
New college, new people's, new chaos, and me trying to survive. Haah 😮💨
Some places change you, some people stay and some memories last forever.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
As I was walking through the corridors of college there was a crowd everyone looking for a boy I was also curious but as I'm late so I walk away.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
मैं इतनी क्यूरियस थी कि मैं जा क्लास में रही थी पर मेरी कान उधर ही उनकी बातें सुनने के लिए जा रही थी।
( I was walking but as I was curious so my mind diverted there to listening to their talk again and again)
SOMEONE
ठीक है बहुत हुआ हम सब की बातें अब क्लास में चलो इससे पहले सर आ जाए
(Okay now enough of our talks let's head back to class before the teacher comes.)
Listening to that person everyone remembers that they are getting late for the class.
Everyone settles to the class.
After some time teacher also comes.
PROFESSOR
ATTENTION EVERYONE TODAY WE HAVE A NEW STUDENT. WHO GOT TRANSFERRED TO OUR COLLEGE.
EPISODE 2
As the teacher announces a girl enters in the classroom.
That girl was non-other than our FL.
PROFESSOR
So class let's welcome aanya.
Why don't you introduce yourself?!
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Hello everyone
Myself aanya vedral
I recently transferred from Aurora college of science, pune. I'm in the physics stream and I really enjoy reading. I'm excited to be here and looking forward to know you all.
THANK YOU.
PROFESSOR
Very good now go and take a seat.
She was looking for a seat but wasn't able to find it.
Finally she finds a seat. She walks confidently and sits beside him. He stiffs a little, glancing at her curiously, unused to anyone that much close.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
So mind if I sit here?.... Looks like all other seats are taken so.
(smiles slightly)
SOMEONE
S..sure
( soft voice, slightly hesitant)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
You seem focused... do you always sit alone.?
SOMEONE
I d.. don't like s...someone near me... so..I just prefer..
(avoid looking at her)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Woow lucky me.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Alright.. Btw what's your name.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Ar...Aravind Raozen
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Your's Aanya right !?
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
I think we should focus on class.
As he said she nods and both of them look forward to the board where the professor was writing a question and said everyone to solve this.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Hm... This one looks tricky you trying it too?!
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Yeah I think it's about....um...,... Substitution method.
(glance at her and nods)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Let me see... If we can solve this.
There this should work.
(she quickly starts to solve)
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Ah... That makes sense. I was stuck at that part (leaned over, impressed)
The professor suddenly looked up from the board and walked over.
PROFESSOR
Aravind, can you explain how you got that step.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Yes sir we used substitution here 🥶
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
He talks cold also (A little shocked as he was talking to her softly)
(in mind)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
See told you it works (whispered with a grin)
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Yeah... Thanks aanya.
The professor nodded, satisfied by the answer and return back to board
The bell rang, signaling the end of the day. Students hurriedly packed their bags, chattering about assignments and plans. Aravind, as usual, didn’t mingle—his expression calm, almost unreadable.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Finally! That felt like the longest class ever
( grinning, closing her notebook)
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Yeah.... It was... Okay
(glance at her, a faint smile appear on his face)
As classmates waved and joked around, Aravind remained quiet, standing a little apart. Yet, when Aanya approached him, he straightened slightly, attentive.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
You're always so serious. Don't you ever talk to anyone?!
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
I... Talk when I need to. And.... maybe with you( shrugs, coolly)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Only me? Wow... I feel special already.
( raised ab eyebrow, teasing)
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Don't get used to it ( smirking faintly, not meeting her eyes)
They two walked out together, the campus slowly emptying around them, and a subtle warmth lingered in the air - an invisible bubble that made his usual cold behaviour seems.... Different... Just for her.
EPISODE 3
Today also they came to college.. Today aanya came first so now she is sitting on her seat waiting for her new friend to come.
It's about class time but he didn't come till now.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Is he going to be absent today.? Ughh why didn't he tell me yesterday then. What I'll do alone here now. ( whispered to herself)
She is so focused on cursing him that she didn't notice that someone came and sit beside him unless he said something.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Thinking about me 😉
(he said teasing her)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
When you come (flinch a little)
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Oh.. Just now when you are busy cursing me...
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Whatever(rolled her eyes)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Where were you I thought you are gonna absent today
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Oh that I was stuck in traffic.
If I know someone is waiting for me that desperately I'll come soon
(grins)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
I wasn't Waiting.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Okay okay you weren't waiting. I'll remember that
(raise his hands in surrender, a tiny smile)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
You better
( tries to look serious but fail)
A short pause. He takes out his notebook.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Did the professor give any notice yesterday? About today class
(asked her)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
No, same routine
(shakes her head)
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Good, I really thought I'm gonna miss something (sighs softly)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
for someone who comes late, you worry a lot.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Yeah I don't want to stand outside and get scold (laughs lightly)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
nods her head
Just then the professor enters the classroom.
PROFESSOR
Settle down everyone. Open your books.
They both straighten up a bit, ending the conversation naturally.
After that looks like eternity the class finally ends..
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
let's go eat something. I'm so hungry that was soo long class.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Okay come.
Aanya and Aravind walk out of the class together, still carrying their notebooks. The corridor noise grows louder as students rush for the the break.
They reach the canteen counter.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
You're going to eat something, right?
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
I usually don't. Not this early. (shrugs)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Oh.... But you should...you barely had breakfast, I guess?
(looks at the menu board)
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
I had something. I'm fine. (glance at her, surprised she noticed)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Still come on. Atleast a samosa or something. I'm buying.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
You don't have to ( frowns slightly)
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
I know. But I want to. Friends can do that, hm?
A pause. He looks away for a second, then nods
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
.... Okayyyy one samosa.
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
Good ( soft smile)
They move to the counter. She placed the order, while waiting, there's a small silence not awkward but comfortable.
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
You don't usually insist this much?
AANYA VEDRAL/FL
On the second day, I'm trying to be nice the only person who talks to me
He gives a tiny smile at that barely visible but real one
ARAVIND RAOZEN/ML
Then thanks.
Food arrives. They sit at a corner table. And have their lunch break.
