UNHEARD NOTES

The annual function is finally upon us, and the air is buzzing with excitement as everyone diligently prepares for their performances. Among the participants, Aarya and Siddarth stand out, both displaying unwavering commitment as they move tirelessly from one task to another, ensuring that no detail is overlooked.

The school's annual function is set to take place in the beautifully decorated auditorium, with all the arrangements in place. As time passes, students, along with their families, start to arrive at the venue. Among them is Aarya, standing there with her adorable smile, warmly greeting everyone. However, her eyes seem to be searching for something, as if seeking her final destination amidst the crowd.

As time went on, Aarya's hope began to diminish, and her smile started to fade. She had been eagerly searching for someone for the last 30 minutes, but that person had not arrived yet.

Unbeknownst to Aarya, Siddharth was standing a little distance away, observing her closely. He could tell that she was feeling sad about something. Slowly, he made his way towards her, maneuvering through the crowd. With a smile on his face, Siddharth whispered softly, keeping an eye on the guests, "Is something wrong? Why do you look so sad?"

Aarya, still trying to locate her someone, absentmindedly replied, "Akdu ko..." Instantly realizing that she had said something wrong, she tried to explain, " A- aa- I mean, my brother." Siddharth looked puzzled at the term "Akdu," prompting Aarya to clarify that it was a nickname for her brother. Playfully, he teased her about the smile she had been wearing, saying, "Don't use that smile, it doesn't suit you at all." His lighthearted remark made Aarya laugh, and she looked at him with a mix of surprise and amusement. Siddharth responded with a wink, which caught her off guard once again, leaving her looking at him in astonishment.

As Aarya and Siddharth continued to enjoy each other's company, engaging in playful banter, little did they know that someone was observing them from afar. It was Ishan, who had initially been searching for someone but became captivated by their interaction. However, after noticing something that disheartened him, he decided to leave the auditorium.

As the annual function commenced, each class presented their unique performances, including dance, singing, and plays, among others. Among the various acts, the Bhangra performance stood out as one of the most entertaining and engaging ones. Its lively beats and vibrant moves enthralled the audience, earning it the top spot in the list of performances.

On the other hand, there was a play based on a story that seemed to be less captivating. Regrettably, it received a lukewarm response from the audience, and some people struggled to stay awake during the performance, trying their best not to doze off.

After successfully fulfilling all their responsibilities and discussing every detail, Aarya and Siddharth's duties came to an end. As Aarya stepped out of the school gate, the memories of the recent incident flooded back, bringing a smile to her face. It might not have been a grand gesture, but the conversation she had with ishan had left her feeling elated, as if she were floating on cloud nine.

Lost in her own happy thoughts and blushing, Aarya was in her own little world when suddenly, a voice called out from behind. Startled, she turned around to find Siddharth running towards her, a warm smile adorning his face.

"Huff, huff, hey, wait for me," Siddharth panted as he caught up to Aarya, and she nodded in acknowledgment.

Once they had a moment to catch their breath, Siddharth asked, "Aarya, you take the A3 route bus, right?" Aarya nodded again in response. "Then let's go, what are you waiting for? The bus is here," Siddharth said, taking her hand and guiding her towards the bus entrance. Aarya was still processing the sudden turn of events, but she decided to go along with it, taking a seat and looking back towards the school. From where she sat, she could see an alley, and as she glanced in that direction, her eyes met his, and everything around her seemed to freeze.

The moment seemed to linger, and Aarya couldn't look away from the person in the alley. It was as if time stood still, and her surroundings faded into the background. She felt a strange connection, and her heart skipped a beat as she locked eyes with him. The person in the alley had a cigarette in his hand, which added an air of mystery to the encounter. Aarya's gaze was drawn to the faint trail of smoke that curled from the lit end of the cigarette, heightening the enigmatic allure of the moment.
The intensity of the gaze left her both intrigued and a little uneasy, and she couldn't shake off the feeling that there was more to this encounter than met the eye. As the bus started to move, Aarya kept stealing glances towards the alley, but the person had disappeared, leaving her wondering about the significance of that fleeting moment.

Aarya felt an unfamiliar warm and tingling sensation in her stomach, one she couldn't quite explain. Day by day, her feelings were growing stronger, and she found herself yearning to know more about the mysterious person she had seen in the alley. There was an undeniable connection that left her eager to unravel the enigma surrounding him.

Unbeknownst to Aarya, Siddharth had been observing her closely, and he had noticed her interaction with Ishan. A flicker of emotion crossed his face as he saw a clear twinkle in her eyes upon spotting Ishan. There was something different about Siddharth's feelings in that moment—something akin to jealousy, although he couldn't quite fathom why.

As Siddharth grappled with these unfamiliar emotions, he couldn't help but wonder why he was feeling this way. Aarya's joy upon seeing Ishan sparked an inexplicable sense of possessiveness within him, a feeling he had never experienced before. It left him conflicted, contemplating the depths of his emotions and trying to decipher what lay beneath the surface.
