🧠 **Unknown Mind: Viyan’s Diary – Part 2: When Yalini Noticed**
That bus ride changed something in me.
Not just for me… but for someone else too.
Her name was **Yalini**.
Not everyone saw me stand up that day.
But *she* did.
Back in college, I was always the background.
I sat at the edge, ate alone, smiled rarely.
Nobody noticed. Nobody asked.
But after that day… Yalini looked at me differently.
Her eyes didn’t just see me.
They *searched* for something in me.
She once walked past my bench, stopped… then smiled.
A small smile — but it hit me like thunder.
I didn’t know if it was kindness, or something more.
All I knew was —
For the first time in years, someone’s silence matched mine.
Later that evening, my mind kept spinning:
> “Did she see my pain?”
> “Did she feel the change in me?”
> “Was she just being nice… or did she *understand*?”
That night, I opened my diary again.
And I wrote not about fear…
…but about *hope*.
Hope — that maybe, this unknown mind of mine…
was no longer invisible.
And that maybe,
just maybe…
My story had found its first reader.
🖋️ — *Viyan*
