The song that has been taken into account for carrying out the task is "We don't talk
anymore" by Charlie Puth1. I am going to tell a story about a girl named Jennifer and a boy
named Justin.
Jennifer and Justin were two best friends from elementary school. They both did everything
together from studying, clubbing, having the same friend circle. The bond between them was
quite strong, and they were indeed inseparable. From being best friends to lovers and then
breaking up it was a quite a predictive yet unusual story between them. It's a bittersweet story
about a relationship that ended because no one has a clue why.
Jennifer was in high school and suddenly all those late night talks, texting, being together
hinted her that she is definitely in love with her best friend, Justin. Despite the fact being a
girl she chooses to go to Justin and confess her feelings. She still remembers it was just 3
days before Valentine's Day when she sat down in the coffee shop just beside her home were
Justin and Jennifer is the regular visitors.
But that day she was alone in the coffee shop nervously thinking how to say those three
magical words to her best friend. However, without thinking much she confessed her feelings
to Justin that day itself, and Justin's reaction at first was quite weird as he could not believe

but deep down inside Justin also liked Jennifer. Justin did not give any answer to Jennifer
until Valentine's Day.
They were normally talking but suddenly on 14th February 2016, Justin also confessed his
feelings for Jennifer and their love story begin from that day.
Their love story was going strong till 1 year when suddenly they begin to fall apart. Things
were not the same anymore as they used to be. They both got admitted in the same college,
but that also did not help them to sustain their relationship. They had small fights at the
beginning like all other normal couples, but things got bitter and bitter day by day.
One day when Jennifer could not take it anymore, she decided to end their "Love
relationship" but wanted to be his friend. However, Justin refused and told her that he was
happy to end the relationship and did not want to be with her in any form of a relationship
neither a lover nor a friend.
Both got hurt in the process of ending their relationship and not talking with each other. They
stared at their phone at night thinking that they will be getting a text or a call from each other,
but it did not happen. Hours, days, months passed although they used to live in the same lane
whenever after breaking up they came in front of each other they did not smile, nor they
looked away but simply had glances that were blank.
Jennifer heard from one of her friends that Justin got a new girl and she wished that if she
knew this before, then she would have never ever been in a relationship with him. She
thought that Justin moved on but still, she could not move on because of the memories, the
friendship, love and everything they used to share before seems so real to her even at present
that she is in denial most of the time.

It was the story of Jennifer, but the same thing was happening with Justin also. After seeing
Jennifer couple of times with dressed up, he thought she was definitely dating someone.
However, no matter how much curious he was Justin tried stopped himself from knowing
what she is doing, what dress she was wearing, if she was dating someone or they are even
close. He simply thought to see her from outside that she is happy and seems like he has been
fooled all this time and he wished never to fall in love with her as her love seemed to be like
the game now.
They both think that maybe it is high time for them to move on because Jennifer, as well as
Justin, think that they both are gone from their life for good. The reality was different as they
were in denial still. Friends pressurized both of them and they decided to go on a blind date.
However, their blind date was set up by their own common group of friends, and the place
was the same old coffee shop were both used to spend a lot of time together.
They were both blindfolded and asked to sit on the chair that they used to sit before although
both of them are unaware who is in front of them? Now the question arises after seeing each
other will they be the same as before? Or will they part their ways as strangers again? Maybe
a few things are best left unsaid.
