Kiaan's POV
I went to this book store near our school everyday after my basketball classes. But today I didn't have any so I just decided to go and read a new book.
But I accidently bumped into Ira. Wait is she also a regular here?
I was staring at her and she suddenly looked at me and if you accidentaly ever just make an eye contact with the girl you like you just get lost.
She smiled awkwardly at me, I didn't know what say.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZGTQuRbTV
"Hi, Kiaan" she said, slightly waving of her hand.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnAVaIKWlH
"Hey" my voice was slightly trembling with nervousness.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqIBmA5f1U
374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9oZlbjrPg
That moment of awkwardness quickly faded away, as she started bombarding me with questions. I asked her if she would like to grab a coffee. She hesitated for a moment, but then agreed. So we sat down at a cafe near our school and she started bombarding me again.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0Q2jijSbf

I was so nervous but talking about my love for books and my favorite authors, I felt comfortable. Ira was all too eager to share her thoughts about the books she read before.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfqDGuKhby
"So which is your favorite book?" she asked.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWOV2sQ5T3
"I am particularly obsessed with 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen" she said374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0xAwHAraw

We both had long conversation about the books with liked. Our taste in books was completely opposite from each-other. But still she happily listened to it.
Ira told me about some of her favourite books and the various adaptations that have been made of it . I felt really happy seeing Ira so happy while talking about the books. I was enjoying the conversation and wanted it to last forever.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcX2LWuEyY

I felt a connection with Ira to an extent that was hard to explain. I wanted to talk to her more, but she excused herself, saying that she had to go somewhere.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1zabQJ0bn
While I was still trying to digest my feelings for her, when she said goodbye and left.
Ira's POV
I felt a bit uncomfortable after I realised what I was doing. When I first met Kiaan I thought he was an ordinary classmate, but after our conversation a month ago It felt like he was not. I felt like we could be bestfriends, but then again I didn't want to.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY86UN0g8kw
I almost told him everything about me. It felt like history was repeating itself all over again.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocJucD6SiL
That evening, I was still thinking about the time spend with Kiaan, I felt like I should have stayed for longer.
Author's POV
Ira laid in bed with a thousand emotions running through her head.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYwTXaJGO0
Meanwhile Kiaan was still trying to make sense of his emotions too.
He realized he liked Ira, but was scared of how Ira felt about him. He too felt embarrassed for sharing his feelings for Ira.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5n1CeD9p0F

The next day at school, the two sat down together at lunch. They both smiled shyly at each other and then started talking about books and authors.
It was obvious that Kiaan was interested in Ira, but Ira was was completely unaware about Kiaan's feeling.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHYwH4TAro
The conversation went from one book to another, and it felt like nothing had changed in the past 24 hours.
They both were still discussing books and authors, but it felt so much more intimate this time. It felt like they were lost in their own world, talking candidly about their passions and dreams.
Kiaan looked at Ira and slowly asked her,374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkElWrSr8X
"Hey, do you think we could meet again and grab coffee sometime? I want to know more about you"374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4p1lURcndA
Ira was taken aback by this, she looked at Kiaan and said "Sure, I'll see if I can manage that"
