Chapter 3 - Love Behind the Locker (Genre: Teen Romance)

Arka has liked Dira since he first entered high school. Every day he only dared to look at the girl from afar, hoping that one day he could talk to her.

One day, he saw Dira drop a letter from her pocket and hurriedly leave. Arka picked it up. The letter was blank… except for one small sentence: "I like you, but I'm too cowardly to say it."

Shocked, Arka kept the letter. The next day, he slipped a reply into locker number 27, Dira's. "If you dare, meet on the roof during break time."

Dira appeared with a nervous face. "So that's you?" Dira asked softly.

Arka nodded. "We're both cowards, huh?" Dira said with a laugh.

And that's where their love story began.

Fun Facts: Scientifically, the smell of paper and ink can trigger feelings of nostalgia and comfort—which is why love letters feel more touching than digital chats.

Philosophy: Maybe courage isn't about speaking out loud in front of a crowd, but about admitting your true feelings—even if it's just on a piece of paper.

Weird Rumor: Some old schools have "love lockers"—where it's said that if two people unknowingly put letters in the same locker, they'll meet their soulmate within 7 days.
