Unexpected Encounters

It was Eva's first day of college, and she was feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. As she stepped onto the campus, she was greeted by a sea of students, all buzzing with energy. Eva made an effort to say hello to everyone she passed, spreading her warm and friendly vibes. But then, her eyes landed on a boy who sat alone, not engaging in conversation with anyone. There was something intriguing about him, something that caught Eva's attention.

Throughout the class, Eva couldn't help but steal glances at him, wondering what secrets lay behind his quiet demeanor. And when their eyes finally met, a spark ignited between them, a silent understanding that words couldn't express. With a gentle smile, Eva let him know that she noticed him and that she was open to getting to know him better. Little did she know, this small gesture would be the start of an incredible journey, where they would discover the depths of friendship, love, and self-discovery together.

As class ended and everyone started to leave,Eva's curiosity grew stronger. She decided to ask her friends about the mysterious boy and why he seemed so shy. However, to her surprise, her friends didn't have any information about him. They advised Eva not to approach him, but her curiosity got the better of her. Ignoring her friends' advice, Eva wanted to strike up a conversation with Alex after everyone else had left.

Eva mustered up the courage to approach Alex. With a warm smile, she greeted him and asked how the class was. However, Alex showed no interest and left Eva in the room with lingering curiosity. Eva thought he might be an introvert or just plain rude. She had a conversation in her mind, telling herself to focus on her studies and not waste time on other stuff. Eva reminded herself that she was there to study, not to figure out what was going on in his head. She decided to prioritize her academic goals and put her energy into her studies.

After leaving college, Eva returned home where her mom greeted her with a warm smile.

" Hey sweetie, how was your day?" her mom asked. Exhausted, Eva replied, "Tiring." Understanding her daughter's fatigue, her mom reassured her, "It's okay, dear. Have lunch and take some rest. We can talk more later." Intrigued by her mom's mysterious tone, Eva couldn't help but wonder what her mom wanted to discuss. As she changed her clothes and had lunch, Eva's mind buzzed with curiosity, Eva, filled with curiosity, made her way downstairs to find her mom waiting for her.

Anticipating a serious conversation, she was taken aback when her mom said, "Hey, Eva! Now that you're all grown up, it's time to buckle down and focus on your grades. I think it would be a great idea to get you a tutor. You need to study hard and aim to be the top student in college!" Confused by the sudden urgency, Eva asked, "Why the sudden talk, Mom? It's only the first day!" Her mom replied, "Well, you know the girl next door? Her mom keeps boasting about her because her high school grades were so much better than yours. I just want you to reach your full potential, sweetheart." Eva's mind raced with a mix of determination and pressure as she pondered how to meet her mom's expectations and prove her own worth academically.

Feeling overwhelmed, she retreated to her room, scrolling through Instagram for a momentary distraction. And just as she was about to close the app, a notification popped up, catching her attention, it was Alex's instagram profile .

So, Eva approached the profile, and to her surprise, there were no photos or posts of him. Instead, it was filled with captivating travel and adventure photos. She couldn't help but wonder if Alex was an introvert who preferred to keep his personal life private.

With a deep breath, she closed the app and allowed herself to drift off to sleep, entering the realm of dreams where anything was possible. In her dreams, she imagined embarking on thrilling adventures with Alex,

In the depths of her dreams, Ava mustered the courage to ask the shy figure why they were so reserved. With a gentle smile, they leaned in and whispered a secret that sent shivers down her spine. They spoke of a forgotten realm beyond the veil of reality, where time flows differently and ancient mysteries lay dormant. As the conversation unfolded, the figure shared tales of their extraordinary adventures, traversing realms unknown and encountering beings of unimaginable power. Ava's heart danced with excitement, her imagination ignited by the enigmatic stories that unfolded. Yet, with each revelation, the figure's aura grew more mysterious, as if their true nature remained veiled in shadows.

In Ava's dream, she and Alex were not only adventuring together but also attending college side by side. It was like a parallel reality where their connection felt so real and natural. The dream was so vivid and captivating that Ava didn't want it to end. She longed to stay in that dream world, to keep experiencing the joy and togetherness she felt with Alex. Every time she woke up, she wished she could fall back asleep and continue living in that beautiful dream. It was a dream that felt like a glimpse into a perfect reality, where Ava's heart was filled with happiness and a deep sense of belonging with Alex.

Ava was so ecstatic in her dream! The energy and vibe between her and Alex were simply off the charts.

It felt as if they were in sync, their steps perfectly aligned, and their conversations flowing effortlessly. The dream was so vivid and immersive that Ava couldn't help but get lost in the moment, feeling a profound sense of happiness and contentment.

However, just as the dream was reaching its peak, an unexpected twist occurred. Ava slipped and stumbled, abruptly jolting her awake from her dreamlike state. As she opened her eyes, she realized it was midnight and a wave of disappointment washed over her. The dream had felt so real, so tangible, and she was yearning to continue the journey with Alex. The sudden interruption left her with a bittersweet longing, desperately wanting to fall back asleep and re enter that enchanting world where their connection felt so natural and profound.
