As the sun began to set, he made his way to the Taj Mahal, eager to see the monument in all its glory.As he approached the entrance, he noticed the same woman from earlier, standing in line to buy tickets. Raj's heart skipped a beat as their eyes met again, and this time, she smiled."Hi," she said, walking over to him. "I'm Jona. We met earlier, didn't we?"Raj nodded, feeling a little shy. "Yeah, we did. I'm Raj."Jona's eyes sparkled as she asked, "So, what brings you to Agra?"Raj told her about his love of travel and his desire to see the Taj Mahal. Jona listened intently, nodding along as he spoke.As they reached the front of the line, Jona turned to him and asked, "Would you like to explore the Taj Mahal together?"Raj's heart skipped a beat as he agreed. As they walked through the monument's stunning gardens and buildings, Raj found himself feeling more and more at ease in Jona's presence.They spent the next few hours exploring the Taj Mahal, laughing and talking as they went. Raj learned that Jona was a fellow travel enthusiast, and they bonded over their shared love of adventure.As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the monument, Raj realized that he didn't want the day to end."Hey, Jona?" he asked, as they stood on the edge of the reflecting pool. "Would you like to grab dinner with me?"Jona's smile lit up the evening, and Raj's heart soared. "I'd love to," she said.And with that, Raj knew that this chance encounter might just lead to something more.
