Aalia sat on her bed staring at the gift.
''Nah. I won't open it. What if he wants to end everything with this gift?" Aalia told herself.
"I should open it. What if it's something I would like? " Aalia bit her lip nervously.
She opened the box and found a letter. Her heart rate was rising. She took it. Beneath it was a merry go round showpiece. Aalia was curious to know what the letter was about. She thought of reading it.
'I always wanted to consider you as my little sister. When I look at all the years we have been together, I do it with a smile on my face. We have been together- Through all the ups and downs. But I don't know when, how, and where it changed. I don't know when I fell in love with you. I love being with you. You make me smile in a way no one else can. I have never loved anyone the way I love you. I enjoy the little things about you like going for a walk, having food together and even seeing you smile makes my day. You mean a lot to me. You don't know how hard it was for me to handle my feelings when you were around. I wanted to express what I felt for you. But I was being a coward. I even tried to stay away from you but it was of no use. It made everything worse. All I wanted was to talk to you. I think I should confess it now. Sorry. I hope you understand. Adnaan.'
Aalia was shocked but her eyes were teary.
"What was that? Aalia breath... It's okay. "
She took the merry go round. A pink one. It was really adorable. She looked at its bottom. There was small folded paper.
'For the remembrance of the day I found that I fell in love with you '
"Merry go round? Which day? um....Carnival? The day he brought me the bracelet? " Aalia was confused.
Aalia dropped her head on the bed.
"Impossible! You are definitely dreaming. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. " She repeated.
