As the days passes Like that.....
Rahul had just come back from a long day at college. His classes were tiring, and he couldn't wait to talk to Radha. The moment he reached home, he grabbed a snack, settled into his chair, and dialed her number.
The phone rang, and Radha picked up almost immediately.
Rahul: "Hey, Radha! Finally done with classes for the day. It was a busy one!"
Radha: "Hey, Rahul! You sound tired. Was it that exhausting?"
Rahul: "You have no idea! Back-to-back lectures and then a surprise test. The whole day, I was just waiting to get home and call you."
Radha: "Well, here I am! So, tell me about your day. Did anything interesting happen?"
Rahul: "Not really. Just the usual. But talking to you makes it all worth it. I don't know why, but hearing your voice feels like the best part of my day."
Radha: laughs "You're just saying that because you're tired!"
Rahul: "No, I'm serious! It's like all the stress disappears when I talk to you. You’re my little recharge button."
Radha: "Well, in that case, I'm glad to be of service. My day was a bit busy too, but this call made it all better."
Rahul: "So, what’s the plan for the weekend? Think we can finally hang out, just the two of us?"
Radha: "I'd love that! Let’s do something simple—maybe a walk, some coffee. Just time to relax and unwind."
Rahul: "Sounds perfect. Just being with you is enough, Radha. It’s like… no matter how hectic things get, talking to you feels like home."
Radha: "And that’s exactly why you’re my favorite person, Rahul. Even on the craziest days, you always find a way to make me smile."

After two days....
Rahul: (walking down the stairs) Dad, you wanted to see me?
Father: Yes, Rahul. I have some important news.
Rahul: What is it? You look serious.
Father: (sitting at the dining table) I just came out of a meeting with some investors. They believe it's time to expand our business internationally.
Rahul: That sounds exciting! But how does that involve me?
Father: I want you to go to the USA and complete your business course there.
Rahul: (surprised) The USA? But Dad, I just finished my college here. Are you sure?
Father: Absolutely. This is a crucial step for our business. With your education and experience abroad, you can help us establish a global presence.
Rahul: (thinking) I’ve always wanted to study in the USA, but I didn’t expect it to happen so soon.
Father: I know it’s a big decision, but think about it. You’ll gain valuable knowledge, meet industry leaders, and bring back insights that can transform our business.
Rahul: (nodding) You really believe in me, don’t you?
Father: Of course, I do. You have the talent and the passion. I just need you to be open to this opportunity.
Rahul: (smiling) Okay, Dad. I’ll do it. I’ll make you proud.
Father: I have no doubt you will. Now, let’s talk about the next steps for your admission and preparations.

(Rahul enters his room, sits on his bed, and dials Radha's number. The phone rings, and she answers.)
Radha: (cheerfully) Hey Rahul!How was your day...?
Rahul: (sighing) Hey Radha. It went... well, I guess. There’s something I need to tell you.
Radha: (noticing his tone) What is it? You sound different.
Rahul: (pausing) My dad just told me that I have to go to the USA to complete my business course.
Radha: (silence) The USA? For how long?
Rahul: (hesitating) A few years, I think. I know it’s a big opportunity, but...
Radha: (voice trembling) But what, Rahul? Are you excited?
Rahul: I am, but... I’m also worried. I don’t want to leave you behind.
Radha: (trying to hold back tears) I didn’t know you were leaving so soon. I thought we would have more time together.
Rahul: (softly) I wish it didn’t have to be like this. I want you to be part of my journey.
Radha: (voice breaking) It’s just… I’m going to miss you so much. Who am I going to share my days with? Who will I talk to at night?
Rahul: (feeling her pain) Radha, I’ll always be here for you. We can video call, text, and I’ll come back as often as I can.
Radha: (sobbing) But it won’t be the same. You’re going to be so far away, and I’m scared. What if things change between us?
Rahul: (desperate) They won’t. I promise. You mean the world to me, and nothing will change that. You’ll always be in my heart, no matter the distance.
Radha: (crying) I just wish I could be there with you. I want to experience it all together.
Rahul: (voice filled with emotion) I want that too. But this is important for my family and our future. I need you to believe in me, in us.
Radha: (sniffles) I do believe in you. I just… I don’t want to lose you.
Rahul: (choked up) You won’t lose me. I’ll make sure of it. We’ll make it through this, I swear.
Radha: (quietly) Promise me you’ll stay the same. No matter what happens.
Rahul: (heartfelt) I promise, Radha. I’ll come back stronger, and I’ll bring you with me in every step. Just hold on for me, okay?
Radha: (barely whispering) Okay… I’ll try.
Rahul: (wiping a tear) That’s all I ask. You’re my strength.
Radha: (softly) And you’re mine. Just... promise to call me every day.
Rahul: (smiling through the tears) Every day, I promise.
(They both stay silent for a moment, letting the reality of their situation sink in.)
Radha: (whispering) I love you, Rahul.
Rahul: (voice trembling) I love you too, Radha. Always.
