Chance encounter changes fate from "summary" of Half Girl Friend by Chetan Bhagat
The moment Riya Somani walked into St. Stephen's College, my fate changed. It was a chance encounter, really. I had no idea that this one girl would turn my world upside down.
Riya was different from anyone I had ever met. She was elegant, graceful, and came from a world so far removed from mine. I couldn't help but be drawn to her, despite our differences. Our paths crossed at a time when I was lost, unsure of where I was headed in life. Riya brought a sense of purpose, a sense of direction that I had been lacking.
As we spent more time together, I realized that Riya was not just a girl. She was my half-girlfriend - a term that she coined herself. It was a strange label, but it fit us perfectly. We were more than friends, but less than lovers. Our bond was unique, unexplainable, and it felt like destiny had brought us together.
Every moment spent with Riya felt like a gift from the universe. She challenged me, inspired me, and made me want to be a better version of myself. Our chance encounter had opened up a world of possibilities, a world where two people from different backgrounds could come together and create something beautiful.
But fate had other plans for us. Just when I thought that Riya and I were meant to be, life threw us a curveball. Our paths diverged, and we went our separate ways. It was heartbreaking, but I knew that our chance encounter had served its purpose. Riya had changed me in ways that I could never have imagined, and for that, I will always be grateful.
In the end, I realized that sometimes fate works in mysterious ways. A chance encounter with the right person can alter the course of your life, bringing you to places you never thought possible. Riya Somani was my chance encounter, and she changed my fate in ways that I will never forget.
