Chapter 1
Lilly and Ansh
Lilly was a 12-year-old girl, in her 8th standard. A little filmy, a little lost — but always real. She didn’t know how to be fake, not even to impress someone. She believed in love, and in the beauty of bonds. And she would go far — too far — to protect them.
Lilly
Even after watching my friends get into relationships, I never once imagined myself in one.
Until it happened…
Back in 8th standard.
That was the year I created my Facebook account — and just for fun, I made a fake one too with my friends. We used to prank the boys in our class using that ID.
That’s when I met him.
Ansh.
“I wish I never met him :)”
I still remember…
It was just another night.
I got a friend request from someone named Ansh. Without thinking, I accepted. I thought he’d be just another boy to fool.
But strangely, I didn’t message him.
The next day, I got a message:
“Who’s this?”
And just like that, our conversation began.
I lied about most things — my name, my hobbies — but I told him the truth about my school.
And then he said something that stunned me:
“I’m from the same school. Same class too.”
How was that even possible?
How could this handsome, charming guy be someone I’d never noticed?
Our chats became longer. Hours would slip away like seconds. I didn’t know why, but I started paying attention to him. To his words. To how he made me feel.
Two weeks passed.
And then… we finally met at school.
Turns out, he was from another section.
And honestly? I was afraid to meet him — after all, I was hiding behind a fake account.
He saw me for the first time.
And I found out later —
That very day, he fell for me.
But he didn’t say a word.
He just smiled.
Stayed my friend.
And me?
I never even thought about relationships.
Until him.
So… that’s how it all began.
The story of Lilly and Ansh.
Will you stay with me for the next chapter?
Until then,
Stay tuned. 🌙
