"Where is the key?" , I asked mom , while departing for school.
Its in the vase, She replied.
I checked the vase, Key was there, as i found the key, I rushed towards the scooty, as it was the first day of , my new school and i didn't wanted to get late. While closing the door i called Piyush, Piyush is my first and only friend in my new school yet. and he said last night to pick him up while going to school, Before i continue, lemmi give a short character sketch of this Piyush, Piyush is a punjabi guy, whose mentor is "Parmish Verma" , he is too social to be alone, and is quite optimistic in nature, But humans are complicated and i can;t say that i know him. Coming back to me, as i called him. He said, where are you? , I replied , Am just starting the plane. He said ok pilot , i will be ready to fly in 10minutes, you need to wait at my port, i realised,i am going to get late on the first day ,but i had no problem because i will not be late alone.
As i reached his home, i beeped the horn ,he came to his balcony, wearing just the tie , and said just 5 minutes, I had no choice. I kept waiting, in only few minutes he came and the journey started,we had not covered much distance and i realised a loud song from my back, It was the song ,"Gaal ni kadni", i understood that piyush was carrying a speaker . Then i started recommending him , and he started ignoring me. He didn't played even one song ,which i said.
Offcourse my choice "perfect" doesn't deserves a speaker.
The journey was covered very fast as the roads were somewhat lonely in the morning.
Finally, we reached the school,
The gate man shouted, "Where's you helmet" , and i was like , Helmet?, Really? , Then i told him its my first day, he starred at me like a starving lion. Then he allowed to park the scooty in the campus.
Now , we were entering the school gate , i was somewhat scared of a new place, then i realised i need to enter my class alone, Piyush was from commerce stream and we had respective classes, Then i said to myself, are they gonna eat me? , my heart said ,"Yes" , i shouted on my heart, "THEY WILL NOT!" , and then..
I entered the class, ignoring every eye, i didn't wanted any eye contact, i just entered and searched for an empty seat, and than i occupied the last seat. As i sat on my seat i realised, Mam was already in the class, and while ignoring the eyes, i entered the class without her permission. Now i don't know , why i did that? I waked up from the last seat and said , Mam , may i come in? , Mam said you are already in the class, i replied mam i forgot to take permission that time, and everyone started laughing.
I then realised i did something wrong. But my classmates liked my humourous nature.
Then one of my classmate , Anurag came to me and introduced himself , he went like. "My name is...." And before he could have said his name, my fellow benchmate , shouted ,"Balli" , i realised that,"Balli" is the nickname of Anurag, On hearing his nickname , Anurag felt shy, i made him comfortable by saying, its not a big deal brother, myself "Trippy", and Don't ask why? , As its a long story, everyone started laughing, then the first period started , I and balli were sitting together in the last bench , It was chemistry period by Miss Rashmi Ma'am, She was teaching something, and suddenly one of my classmate ,Aryan raised his hand and asked a doubt,and Mam replied, Son, its self explanatory. She continued teaching, after some time ,Balli raised his hand and asked, another doubt. Mam replied again, Son, its self explanatory. And hearing the strategy of doubt clearing , by Rashmi mam, I felt like, why is she teaching ? , When everything is self explanatory..
I was thinking and suddenly, she shouted, Kushagra, standup , Tell me? Why is acid rain harmful?I kept standing...
She shouted again "tell me.."?Than i replied..
"Its self explanatory Ma'am"And the whole class started laughing, everyone had there eyes on me, and i was ignoring every eye, in order to not feel shy.
I got a great attention there, but it was not what i was searching for, i was in search of someone who can understand me, who can make equal efforts to stay with me. I did't wanted to repeat my faults again. Which i did in case of khushi..(If you don't know ,who khushi is? It means you haven't read my earlier work..i.e.
"When She became mine" ,
Go read it first , this is in its continuation)And the day passed, As i came out of my class, Piyush said go and get the scooty , and i will be there near the school bus , pick me up from there. I nodded my head. As i reached the bus, i found Piyush talking with a girl , she was wearing a cat eye glass. She was laughing loudly on something Piyush said and then Piyush got my sight, he called me, I went, she was from my section only, but i missed her while ignoring eyes.
Piyush introduced her to me ,
She is Shanaya, and than he introduced me to her, he went like , He is...and Shanaya continued "Kushagra".. Piyush asked, How you know him?, Then she said, he bombed the class today. Piyush asked how?, And before she could have elaborated the scene the conductor of the bus shouted, "Get in Shanaya", she said, BaBye... and went in.
Now we were on our way, back home. And Piyush was thinking how i bombed, he asked me, and i explained him everything, and he kept laughing.. through out the journey.In this way my first day went, and in the night , her face was still visible to me.
So, guys what you think is going to happen now, Is the author going to have a good chemistry with?
With not Rashmi mam , obviously...Will tell you right back.. till then
Keep sharing...
