The Umbrella Incident

It was during my college days. i had crush on this girl who always sat next to me in class. One day, during a rainy day after classes were over and i was walking with my friends, trying to avoid the rain. But my crush was standing under the same tree where I was heading. She was alone, looking around anxiously. I slowed down, not wanting to approach her, but then I saw her shivering. She didn't have an umbrella. Without thinking, I took off my jacket and put it around her shoulders. She looked up at me, surprised and grateful. We stood there for a moment, under the tree, the rain pouring down around us. She smiled, and I... I smiled back.

Across from you, unnoticed, unseen, under the next tree was a girl who had a crush on you. She watched you put the jacket on that girl and her heart sank as she realized you were staking your claim.
A tear fell down her cheek, mixing with the rain as she squeezed her school books hard enough to make her knuckles white.
One of your friends noticed her staring at you, and those tears and knew exactly what to do. He leaned over to you and whispered in your ear and then your eyes met.

And then what 🤷
So you got a smile and went back to being awkward around her?

Sounds like the Hollies song “Bus Stop”
“If you can’t handle stress,
you won’t manage success.
