“Ashwin, I know you love me but doing all these inapt things don’t sound good to me,” Nisha said to her boyfriend.
“Baby, why fear when I am near? Live every moment. Kiss me like you miss me.” He said and cupped her mouth. She stifled a smile. He enfolded her slender body and kissed her delicate pink lips.
That night they made love for the first time.
Weeks passed and there were no signs of Ashwin.
A group of girls were discussing something important in the classroom and there was a deafening silence when Nisha stepped into the class. The boys looked excited as their eyes were glued to a video that was playing in their mobile phones.
One of Nisha’s friend showed her phone to Nisha.
“Mumbai college girl hot sex video.” Nisha read and she stood stunned. It was her in the video along with a man whose face was blurred. She knew it was Ashwin.
Why did I trust him? A train of thoughts railed through her mind. She couldn’t believe herself for he had broken her heart.

Its difficult to discern the sheep and the fox with the sheep's skin, when you are young and naive. At the same time, I feel that caution and restraint on Nisha's part would have saved a lot of trouble.
Poor Nisha shouldn't have gone against her wishes and instincts. It is a lesson learnt, yes, but wish it wasn't so harsh and ridiculing. People like Ashwin should rot in hell.

A strong piece for a 200 word short story. The plot is well-defined and the story is well written as well. Really creative.

This is really creative and very well written, the plot of the story well-defined. It is such a strong piece for a 200 word short story.
