It was about 3-4 days before our second semester exams, I had some cousins at my place. It was quite a misty and cold morning which made me lie on the bed, my phone vibrated in the morning I was so lazy that couldn’t even help me picking up the phone. My intrusive cousin checked up the peep and notified me of a good morning from an unknown number. I got curious and enquired who he was???
The first day went on with some intrinsic messaging wars most of the times trying to reveal her identity. First she said she was some kinda aslam or something then she said that she was a desperate laila searching for her majnu. She was good at pranks probably a prankster.

At times I even did think that whether she was a mirror which would revive memories of my past thoughts and moments unforgettable in my life. Still I felt like it was some prank being played by my college mates.
The next day morning she sent me a good morning and introduced herself:
