Anju Dewangan
caring, and introspective. Anju shares her love for cooking and hopes to connect with Shyam through food. Despite the distance, she yearns for deeper emotional intimacy with him. Her relationship with Shyam is strained by his formal responses, which she hopes to change.
Shyam Sundar Rajshekhar
polite, and distant. Shyam maintains a formal tone in their interactions, addressing Anju as "madam." His responses lack emotional depth, leaving Anju feeling unfulfilled. Despite this, he shows interest in her cooking and shares his own experiences.
Sonal Patel
empathetic, and humorous. Sonal encourages Anju to express her feelings to Shyam and suggests ways to deepen their connection.
I am Anju Dewangan and my partner's name is Shyam Sundar Rajshekhar.
We are in a long distance relationship, he is in Bangalore and I am in Raipur.
We haven't met yet but only video calls, talking on calls and messages.
We have a lot of things in common but still, we are missing something.
We are connected but not emotionally.
I want to tell him that I want to meet him often and talk a lot.
I want to tell him that love is not just a word, it's a feeling.
I want to tell him that I have a lot of feelings for him but how to tell, I don't know.
I am a kind of girl who wants to be loved a lot and who wants to be told that I am everything for you.
I was thinking about how to make him understand and how to make this emotional connection strong.
Then I came up with an idea related to food because everyone loves food and it is our basic necessity.
I am good at cooking and myself made some delicious food and clicked its picture.
Then I shared it with him and he texted me, "Thank you for sharing."
I was expecting something like, "Wow, it looks yummy. I wish I could taste it."
But his response was like, "Thank you for sharing."
I felt bad because he didn't understand what I wanted to say.
He always called me "madam" which made me feel bad because I want him to call me by a lovely name, not madam.
I was sitting on my bed with my phone in my hand and thinking about how to make him understand.
Then I remembered what my friend Sonal told me, "Why not try nicknames? It's a simple way to feel close."
I took a deep breath and decided that I would propose this idea to him during our next call.
When the screen of my phone lit up with his face, I mustered the courage to speak.
"Hey, I've been thinking... maybe we could start calling each other by nicknames?"
I suggested.
He paused, eyebrows raised in curiosity.
"Nicknames?" he repeated.
"Yeah, something special just between us," I replied, trying to sound casual.
He chuckled softly, "Alright, what do you have in mind for me?"
I hesitated for a moment before saying, "How about 'Sunshine'? It suits your bright personality."
As I watched, a small smile crept onto his face.
Before he could respond, Sonal suddenly joined the call, her laughter filling the speakers.
"Hey, you two! How about we spice things up with some fun nicknames?"
She suggested, her voice bubbly and enthusiastic.
Shyam's eyes widened in surprise, but then he nodded thoughtfully.
"What do you suggest?" he asked, his tone a little less formal than before.
Sonal grinned mischievously, "How about 'Chef' for Anju and 'Explorer' for Shyam? You both love discovering new things!"
I saw a spark of excitement in Shyam's eyes as he nodded in agreement.
"Sounds perfect," he said, his voice filled with a newfound playfulness.
I couldn't help but smile at the thought of us having nicknames for each other.
It felt like a small step towards a deeper connection.
As we continued our call, I decided to take Sonal's advice and dive deeper into Shyam's interests.
"So, Explorer," I began playfully, "what new adventures have you been on lately?"
He hesitated for a moment before answering, "Actually, I went on a hiking trip last weekend."
I leaned forward in my seat, intrigued.
"Oh? Where did you go?"
I asked, eager to hear more about his journey.
Shyam's eyes lit up as he began to tell me about the trails he hiked and the breathtaking view from the top of the mountain.
I listened intently, nodding along as he spoke.
When he finished, I shared a recipe for a dish inspired by the spices of Bangalore.
"Maybe one day, we can cook it together," I suggested, smiling at him through the screen.
Shyam paused for a moment before responding with a genuine smile.
"Sounds like a plan, Chef," he said, his voice filled with warmth.
As we continued our call, I noticed that Shyam's responses were becoming more natural and relaxed.
It felt like we were finally making progress in our communication.
I decided to take the opportunity to propose another bold idea to him.
"Shyam, I have an idea," I said, my heart beating a little faster.
He raised an eyebrow, curious about what I would propose next.
"What if we showcased our dish on a cooking show?"
I suggested, trying to sound confident.
He paused for a moment before responding, his voice filled with excitement.
"You mean like a live hack?"
I nodded enthusiastically, "Exactly! We could record ourselves cooking in the kitchen and then somehow sneak it into a local broadcast."
Shyam chuckled nervously, his eyes shining with anticipation.
"Sounds like a crazy adventure," he said, his voice filled with enthusiasm.
"Alright, Chef," he agreed, using my nickname for the first time.
I couldn't help but smile at his response.
"Let's plan it out then," he said, his voice brimming with enthusiasm.
Sonal chimed in with a teasing tone, "You two are going to be famous chefs before you know it!"
Shyam laughed, "Well, as long as I don't burn down the kitchen first."
