Chapter 1: A New Beginning
The first day of college was like a fresh breeze carrying excitement and new hopes.
Among the crowd of new students, four souls were about to find each other and weave a story no one had ever imagined.
Sarmad and Raza had been best friends since childhood. Their bond was strong — filled with shared dreams, endless laughter, and silent promises.
On the other hand, Maryam and Zoya shared a friendship just as deep. They had grown up together, standing by each other through every smile and every tear.
Fate brought these four together on the very first day.
As they entered the classroom, destiny played its beautiful trick.
An empty table near the window saw them sitting together, sharing awkward smiles and polite introductions.
With every passing day, the awkwardness faded.
Group projects, cafeteria breaks, and endless walks across the college corridors turned strangers into best friends.
They laughed together, teased each other, and sometimes fought over silly things — but always found their way back.
Yet, hidden deep inside, each heart carried a secret.
Sarmad, with his easy smile and kind heart, found himself drawn towards Maryam.
Maryam, however, secretly admired Raza's calmness and gentle nature.
Raza, often lost in his own world, felt something special whenever Zoya was around.
And Zoya, silently, held feelings for Sarmad — feelings she never dared to show.
None of them spoke about their hidden emotions.
They were too scared to break the beautiful bond they had built.
So they continued to laugh, to talk, and to live those golden college days... unaware of how complicated everything was about to become.
As the final semester began, the air around them changed.
The laughter now often carried a hidden sigh, and the smiles sometimes hid silent glances full of meaning.
Exams were around the corner, but not everyone's mind was on books.
Some hearts were busy writing stories of love — stories that were yet to be confessed, yet to be tested.
They didn't know it yet,
but soon, one confession was going to change everything between them. Forever
