College Love story

 Here’s a short college love story:

**The Coffee Chronicles**


Aarav was an ordinary guy navigating the chaos of college life. Assignments, late-night study sessions, and crammed library visits defined his world. One rainy Monday, as he rushed to his favorite café to escape the storm, he collided with a girl carrying a stack of books. The books tumbled to the floor, and so did her coffee cup. 


"I’m so sorry!" Aarav stammered, picking up the soaked books. 


"It's okay," she smiled, her curls sticking to her forehead. "Not the first time caffeine and books have betrayed me."


That’s how Aarav met Maya, an English literature major with an uncanny love for Shakespeare and an aversion to engineering students like him. 


Fate seemed to enjoy playing tricks, as they kept running into each other—at the library, in the cafeteria, even during random college fests. Aarav found himself drawn to her quiet intensity, the way she lost herself in books, and her laugh that echoed like music in a crowded room.


One day, Aarav mustered the courage to ask her out. "Would you like to join me for coffee? On purpose this time."


Maya hesitated. "Only if you promise not to spill it."


Their conversations flowed like warm lattes—discussing dreams, fears, and futures. Maya showed Aarav the beauty of poetry, while Aarav taught Maya to live in the moment. 


When their graduation day came, standing beneath the college’s old banyan tree, Aarav handed her a book. Inside was a handwritten note: 


*"Maya, every story needs a beginning. Ours started with spilled coffee. Let's write the rest together."*


Maya looked up, her eyes sparkling. “Only if you promise to never stop being clumsy.”


And with that, their love story moved from the pages of college into the chapters of life.
