the start of a journey that was going to play a vital part in their story, from hopes to the heartbreak, from playing to seek revenge to falling into a trap of guilt and from the sweet fairytale kind of growing love to the disruption of faith in love - yes that's how it was going to unfold greater depths of their story...a story which was only THEIRS <3

नेक इरादा और पढ़ाई का पक्का वादा लिए उस सुबह कुछ ऐसी टकरायी की 1990 की वोह फरवरी आज तक हे मुझे याद।

।। Yeh unn dino ki baat hai jab ishq mein padna acha hua karta tha । ।

✤'Log bas dekhte hai sirf meri yeh hasi, jiske paas ro sakun aisa koyi aaspas nahi. Vakt bit jata yunhi aate jate, mera intezaar karne vala ghar mein koyi khaas nahi.

Bas mein jaanta hu aur chand jaanta hai. Hum dono jaisa jahan mein koyi udaas nahi.'✤

It is at this moment, Naina realizes that Sameer is not only the popular handsome guy of her school who indulges in mischief with his two friends, Munna and Pandit. It's night time and everyone is out in the garden to play 'Dumb charades' and Naina is in Sameer's room wondering what other secrets and emotions does this charming boy hide inside his heart.

Sameer is astounded when he hears Naina recite his lines from his diary. They are both alone in the lodge, the moon is young and bright over their faces while their classmates sleep soundly in their rooms. It's ironical how Naina is the one to uncover some of his deepest desires and emotions he so greatly hides under his 'popular guy' demeanour.

Is is then he realizes that Topper Naina isn't limited to her course books and good grades. She is kind, compassionate and understanding and maybe she is the only one who now gets to see his hidden self.

Naina was attracted to Sameer's good looks. Why wouldn't she? For her, he looked just like every 90s girl dream boy: Prem from Maine Pyar Kiya. But now, she fell in love for Sameer who writes shayari in his notebook about his loneliness and longing for a true companion.

"There comes a point where love makes us selfish. First terming, the happiness of a lover as an identity to oneself, and when heartbroken, diving into a sea of tears. We become so oblivious to the world around us."

"Perhaps if someone had said this before, that Sameer Maheshwari would wait for a girl that too for apologizing, I would've laughed out loud."

And what have you gained young man by breaking the tender one's heart?

She declared you as her first love and lied for you. Her first love, a sweet dream that kept her awake on long nights. Her eyes once red due to lack of sleep, and now they are red for a young man played with a heart so tender.

Your pride broken, so you come stand by my doorway. To ease the guilt heavy on your chest, you come by to seek forgiveness?

Teach me how to love again? Teach me how to trust again?

And then perhaps, I shall learn how to forgive you.

Yeh unn dino ki baat hai jab rishte status ya looks se nahi balki dil aur astitva se bannte the

This show had touched a lot of hearts who even in this dating and hookup culture of today still desired a soft, innocent love story made up of stolen glances and hidden phone calls from families.

This post only tried to show their school love story, but the entire show showed how both of them matured into their adulthood which I shall cover in the next series of this post. The school love has my heart and I always feel giddy when I rewatch it again. But, I loved how this couple had each other's back in troubling times. They fought with each other but eventually came back. They learnt so much after marriage and I feel that what my mother once said is true.

'You may fall in love before marriage and everything will seem perfect. But you start learning and realizing so much about relationships and your partner when you start living with them, be it as a marital relation or as today's living in status.'
