It's all started when I saw him for the first time in amusement park.

Mom: Hey, do you want to ride the wheel?
Me: Alright.
Mom: Then I buy the tickets first.
Me: hmm, ok.

Mom has left. I am waiting for her near the wheel. Then mom comes & we take our ride. After that, she tells me that she would buy ice creams for us. Me again wait for her. Though, she's late, I check some memes in my phone.

Few minutes later:-

Me: why the net is so slow!! [I start to shake phone] Uff! It's annoying! [Sometimes later] Ah, phew~ it's back!

I put down the phone and I notice something.

I see a guy's smile. It's a mesmerising smile. I'm so into it. I only see him again & again. He's so handsome. Suddenly, I notice that somehow he also looks at me. But at that moment, I forget all my manners. I just lose in his Blue eyes. I've never seen a guy with blue eyes & it is quite unnatural to see a blue eyed guy in India. But I feel there's none, just he & me. Suddenly mom comes.

Mom: hey! (I stand like an idiot) Ankita!!
Me: huh!!?
Mom: why don't you respond?
Me: Sorry, maa.
Mom: it's okay, now take your ice-cream.

I take my ice-cream. But when I again go to see him, he's not there. I feel sad.

Then we come back home. We get changed our dresses. Then I jump on the couch.

Mom: Oii!! It'll be broken!

Me: Ah, maa~~

Mom: do you buy all your books for your new high school?

Me: yes, I do, but 5 books --

Mom: (screaming): I tell you all the time, do your important works first. But you! Do you have any future plans?! You know your school is after tomorrow, but do you have any concern about it!!?

Me: Maa! Calm Down- Tomorrow, I will go and buy all the books, don't worry~

Mom: Don't Worry? How could you say that?! Yeah, you and your father always mess up with me. I see, how can you survive after my death!!

Me: Maa--

Mom: (going to kitchen): just wait!!

Me: uff-! Why God, why!! Why would you do that to me!! [I go to my room & shut the door] why maa always teases me and shouts on me!
[Then I again fall in my thoughts, thoughts about that guy, that handsome guy] why is he so handsome!

I stand up & take my canvas and start drawing. After few hours, it's finished. I smile at it.

Me: why I'm so good painter (giggling) He's really- his lips, his eyes....uff! I'm gonna die! He's so gorgeous! Why God! why don't you give some beauty to me!? Ah- what if I will never meet with him. No, no! I want to see him again!

Mom(near to my room): Anku! Come, dinner is ready! Don't be late!

Me: Mom, 5 minutes-

Mom(comes to me): No 5 mins.!! No excuses!! (takes my hand) Come with me!!!!

Me: Maa, please-

Mom:(takes my drawing pad): Who's he? An actor??

Me: No, not an actor, he's just a-

Mom: hmm??

Me: Ah! Maa- I'm starving, let's go!!

We take the dinner. Then I watch my favourite TV show and thereafter, I go to my bed.
I take my blanket and again think about him. And by doing this, when I fall asleep, I don't know.
