Hi Apoorva, meri Jaana…
I don’t always know how to put feelings into perfect words, so I’m not going to try to sound perfect. I just want to be honest.
I have a crush on you, and there’s something about you that makes the ordinary feel a little less ordinary. Your eyes are genuinely beautiful, your lips have this unfair level of cuteness, and your bachkaani harkatein? Honestly, they make you even more you. And I love how much you love books — there’s something lovely about someone who can disappear into a story.
I know life hasn’t always been kind to your heart. I can’t change what happened before me, and I won’t pretend that a few sweet words can fix everything. But I can choose to be thoughtful, to listen, to respect your space, and never treat your feelings like a game.
I’d love to see you happy — not because you owe me anything, and not only if that happiness is with me. Bas tum khush raho, safe feel karo, aur apni smile kabhi mat khona. If I get to be a small reason for that smile, I’ll be grateful.
Thank you for being Apoorva. Thank you for being Appu, Jaana, and all the little versions of yourself that make you special.
With care, and a slightly silly smile,
someone who adores you ♡
