Chapter 1 : Jaanu I

This novel marks a significant departure from my previous works, as it delves into the realm of romance and draws inspiration from my own life experiences. Blending elements of fiction with the emotional resonance found in K-dramas, the story captures the essence of longing, love, and the complexities of relationships.

Gojo's words rang true in my mind as I contemplated the twisted nature of love. Little did I know that this profound realization would soon become a personal experience, reshaping my world in ways I could never have imagined.

It all began on an ordinary day, the sun casting its gentle rays upon the bustling university campus. As an introvert by nature, I had always felt a certain unease when it came to approaching people, especially girls. My upbringing in an orthodox and strict family only added to my inhibitions, as the mere thought of interacting with the opposite gender could result in severe consequences.

But on that fateful day, as I navigated my way through the university cafe, I saw her. Time seemed to stand still as my eyes met hers, and in that single moment, I felt a surge of inexplicable emotions. It was as if my heart had been captured, entangled in a web of enchantment woven by her presence.

Love at first sight may sound like a cliché, but that's precisely what it was. The very essence of my being resonated with her beauty, her radiance captivating me in an instant. Jaanu, as I would later come to know her, possessed a magnetic charm that was simply irresistible. Her eyes, adorned with long lashes and a hint of natural makeup, held an ethereal allure that could melt the coldest of hearts. And that smirk, oh, how it played upon her lips, evoking a sense of mystery and intrigue. I was entranced.

Just as I found myself lost in the enchantment of her gaze, destiny took an unexpected turn. Jaanu, brave and bold, defying the norms and societal expectations, approached me with a confidence that left me speechless. She asked for my number, her voice carrying a melody that resonated within me. And with a gentle smile, she extended an invitation to join her on a date. The shock reverberated through every fiber of my being.

I couldn't believe my luck. Someone as beautiful and captivating as Jaanu had not only noticed me but had taken the initiative to seek me out. It was a moment of disbelief and euphoria, intertwining in a whirlwind of emotions. Excitement coursed through my veins, mingling with nervousness as I realized the weight of this opportunity. It was a chance to connect with someone who had ignited a spark within me, a connection that held the promise of something extraordinary.

From that moment on, thoughts of Jaanu consumed my mind. Her image lingered in my thoughts, each memory etching itself deeper into my heart. I yearned to see her again, to delve into the depths of her soul and unravel the mysteries that lay within. The anticipation of our upcoming date was both exhilarating and nerve-wracking, as I wondered if our connection would transcend the realm of mere infatuation.

Love, with all its intricacies, had found me when I least expected it. As I reflected on the profound impact Jaanu had already made on my life, I couldn't help but feel a mixture of gratitude, hope, and a tinge of fear. Love had opened the doors to a new world, a world where every emotion was heightened, and every decision carried weight. It was a world where the depths of my heart would be tested, and where the power of love would reveal its transformative force.

So, with my heart racing like a wild stallion, I eagerly awaited our date, eagerly anticipating the chance to delve deeper into the enchanting world of Jaanu. Little did I know that this encounter would be the beginning of a remarkable journey, one that would test the boundaries of love, challenge my fears, and ultimately shape the course of my life forever.
