jyotijha3241My first crush, Akash, cast a spell on me amidst the bustling streets of Bihar’s Darbhanga and the vibrant atmosphere of Patna. It all began during a summer spent visiting relatives in Darbhanga. Akash stood out with his infectious laughter and effortless charm. His presence lit up every room he entered, and his wit always left me smiling.
We often found ourselves exploring the historical sites of Darbhanga together. One memorable day, we ventured to Patna to visit the ancient monuments and bustling markets. As we walked through the chaotic streets, Akash shared tales of Bihar’s rich history and culture, painting vivid pictures of the past with his words. His passion for our heritage was contagious, and I found myself admiring not just his knowledge but also his deep connection to our roots.
One evening, during a quiet moment by the Ganga River in Patna, I realized how much I cherished Akash’s company. The sunset painted the sky in hues of gold and pink, mirroring the warmth I felt whenever I was with him. We talked about our dreams and aspirations, and in that moment, I saw Akash not just as a friend but as someone I deeply cared for.
Although our paths diverged over the years and we lost touch, the memories of those days in Darbhanga and Patna remain etched in my heart. Akash taught me the beauty of appreciating someone’s passion, the thrill of discovering shared interests, and the sweetness of a first crush that leaves an indelible mark on one’s soul.
