Happy Birthday, My Love 🎂

YAY, FINALLY YOU ARE HERE! 🎉

I've been waiting to celebrate your 23rd birthday with you! 🥹❤️

Same College, Different Worlds 🏫

We both studied at National College in Hospet. You were in Section C and I was in Section B. We knew each other and followed each other on Instagram, but we hardly ever spoke. After PUC, our paths split: you did your 3-year BCA in Ballari, and I started engineering in 2022 (graduating in 2026). In 2025 you finished your BCA and moved to Bangalore for your MCA at Reva, while I was already living here. Two separate paths, quietly heading to the same city. 🤍

The Kirana Angadi Moment 🛵

One unforgettable day in Hospet, outside a local kirana angadi, you pulled up on your scooty with your mom, while my mom and I were walking by. Our eyes met for a second, a quiet glance that stayed in my mind long before anything romantic started. Then in 2025 we began texting as friends, and I found out how naturally our humour matched. 🛵

"...wait, who was that? 👀"

Seven Heaven & The Spicy Biryani 🍗🔥

Our first real meetup in Hospet! You came on your scooty and we went to Seven Heaven. We ordered chicken biryani, and it was dangerously spicy. You struggled to finish it and I couldn't stop teasing you. It was the start of our favourite inside jokes. 🍗🔥

Lassi Day & Death by Chocolate 🍫

Our second Ballari meetup, at Lassi Day around 7 in the evening. Nothing fancy, just effortless time together. We shared one bowl of DBC with two spoons, talking comfortably in the evening warmth. Even a short dessert stop felt natural and special. 🍫

April 19 🌷

After moving to Bangalore we kept texting as close friends. In mid-April I was going through a tough time and felt very low. On the evening of April 18 I texted you asking if we could meet. On April 19, my birthday, we met in Bangalore. You showed up when I needed someone most, and being around you made the heaviness melt away. That was our first Bangalore meetup, our first date, and the moment everything changed from friendship to true love. 🌷

Mall Bakchodi & Our First Kiss 💋

A day of exploring the mall together, full of laughter, silliness and nonstop bakchodi. Later that evening, in a quiet cab ride home with city lights and streetlamps blurring past the window, we shared our very first kiss. Quiet, sweet, cinematic and unforgettable. 💋

Orion Mall, Oia & Quiet Days 🌆

Long distance wasn't easy with our schedules and travel between Hospet and Bangalore, but every meetup mattered. We laughed our way around Orion Mall. On August 27 we met at Oia Bangalore during a friend's birthday party and spent a sweet, peaceful evening together. And we spent calm hours at your place, with no grand plans, just being in the same room, which was pure comfort. 🌆
