My first crush story

My first crush story dates back to when I was about 15 years old. Yeah, I was a little young. 

In November 2020, there was the marriage of one of my elder sisters, not my own, but she is my distant relative sister. We are in the same village, and our houses are also next to each other.

So, her marriage was in November 2020, and before the marriage there is a ceremony where dowry is given and not many people go in most of them go only in the marriage, but since we were close and she didn’t have any own brother, I also went with a few of the villagers to that place called Ibrahimpur, and there I saw a girl who was with two other girls, but the one I am talking about was immensely beautiful. In my mind, I could think of a happy family with her. The stage was set. At that time, I didn’t have a smartphone. I only owned a JIO phone, so I took my cousin’s brother Siddharth’s phone and took photos and videos of her, which I then uploaded to my Facebook account from his phone. To this date, I have a photo of her.

I even followed them when they left the stage, and I saw three of them going into a house, and to date, I remember the house. 

When I came back from Ibrahimpur to my own village, Chainpur, a few people already knew what I had done there, and they were pulling my legs. I had a picture of her on my Jio phone; I sent it from my brother’s phone, and I even showed it to my cousin Shruti, whom she said she liked, and the stage was set. 

I dug further to know about her, and I found out that her family members are doctors and own lots of assets. At that time, I wanted to become a doctor, so I thought that I would become a doctor and then ask for her hand from her father.

My sister, who was to be married there, kept asking to show the picture of that girl, but I was very shy and afraid, so I didn’t. I only showed it to my cousin Shruti because I love her and am very comfortable with her.  

After that, I had no way to contact her. I tried finding her on social media channels, but I failed. Also, I never went back there as it wasn’t convenient, and I was just a 15-year-old boy, and I was too shy to ask about her from my sister, Chandni, who got married there. A more possible reason was that I didn’t want to get into all those things.

 I have a photo of that girl, but I can’t post it publicly without her consent, which I will never get, and her name is Muskan.  

After that, like a dream, I forgot about her because I had my board exams and COVID was a thing at that time.

Again, after 3 years, at the time of Diwali 2023, when I went to my village Chainpur with my cousin brother Siddharth and my cousin sister Shruti, I started getting cravings for her, and I got mad for her. Luckily, my sister, who got married, also came back to the village, and seeing my madness, my cousin sister asked about that girl to her, Chandani, and I saw her the photo. I was shy until now, and if it were only me, I would have never asked about that girl. 

So, she asked, and we came to know that that girl is around 24, whereas I was to become 18, and their parents are looking for a groom for her, and I was heartbroken. Well, I didn’t cry, but yeah, I was a bit sad, and it was only at this time that I got to know her name. Three years just to know the name—how fast? 

The story doesn’t end here. I again forgot about her, and I got into my first relationship on December 29th. Everything was going well, and after around 10 days, my sister Chandni, who was the informant, called me and told me that there had been confusion, and the girl I was talking about was 3 years old, and her parents weren’t looking for a groom at this time.

I was like, O God, why am I knowing this when I am in my first relationship?.

This is how my first crush story started and ended.
