The Unknown Bond

Friendship

It was the days of hot dazzling summer of April when I completed my 6th standard and for my futher preparation I joined a tuition.

By that time I was not aware that things were about to change so fast, it was the first time I have ever seen such a frank teacher and such a joyful welcoming environment.

The students who were studying there before me were nice and most of them use to crack funny jokes while the class was going on and we all will laugh together.

Since those days I was not that a nice personality guy so even in this time were racism is not allowed some of them use to tease me because of my skin colour or my hairstyle and sometimes even on the way of my pronounciation as I'm a stammer, I can't pronounce the sound "Ta" properly instead I used to say "Tha".

As all this stuff was making my self-confidence down so I started to change myself in a positive way, although my looks were not that good that time but I was a hard working and good student you can say topper of the tuition.

And I had developed a good sense of humour to but the progress to be good enough to not get teased by others was still going on.

During those days she also joined our tuition, her name was "Shewta" she was a kind, sweet hearted and friendly nature girl, she and I became friends in no time, even though we wasn't that close in those days.

Although she had a nice nature but she was also weak in understanding the concepts, and as I mentioned earlier I was one of the topper of the tuition so sir use to ask me to help her in those concepts, after that my shyness towards her was started to go and same was for her to.

We use to wink our eyes whenever we see each other while studying without any reason at all and use to tease each other in a funny way to make our friendship more strong.

Things was going so good at those days, I completed my 9th standard and to enjoy my vacation I went to Manali with my family, but I was not aware of what was going to happen next.

One day a news comes out that a deadly virus was spreading so rapidly that proper lockdown was declared, schools were started on online means and same was for my tuition to also it was the first time I have suspected such an emergency declaration by the government.

Tuition was started and I use to join it regularly but I noticed that Shewta was the only one who wasn't attending the classes, I was not that close to her so didn't try to know what was the reason, I thought that it was on her own will.

At that time in order for the mean of my timepass in the lockdown I started to make videos in an app and I found Shewta there, I texted her and we started a conversation, while we was chatting I came to know that she has left the tuition not on her own will but because of some financial problems. I don't know why I feel bad for her after listening this.

After that day we started to chat regularly with each other though the app, soon she was in a relation with a guy to and also she started to share everything with me.

It was the first time I was so close to someone she was the first one who accepted me for what I was at those days, we use to chat for hours she will share me everything happening in her life and the was I was doing to, we wanted to meet each other badly but fortune has something more left for us.

The lockdown was still going on it was almost 1 year, I was still stucked in Manali when Shewta texted me that she had break-up.

After this she was completely broken and was going through depression and anxiety, at that time I tried my best to make her laugh, feel her better and come out from all that has happened with her.

She said that I'm the only one who has stayed with her so far, and now I was her best friend, she asked me to never leave her no matter what ever happens, I felt so special and important to someone for the first time in my life. I wanted to meet her more badly the distance between us was just measured in kilometres but we came close to each other heart very much, she needed me to be near her at that time and I was so happy because of this, she told me that I'm more special even then the guy she had loved so much because she was able to share me even those things that she was never able to share with her ex.

Our bond was damn strong that time, all we needed was each other to be always together, after that 1 special year lockdown was over for a short period of time, I came back at my home and I tried to meet her after that, but fortune was still not ready yet.

After her break-up she started taking tuitions in order to get busy so that she don't have time to think about her past and also to support her financial condition. Sadly she was very busy and I don't want to distrub her in her working time so our regular chat was decreased.

But to overcome this we set a time in which we left all our works and come online just to talk to each other and stay updated about what was going on with each other but sometimes we miss to come online because of each other's busy schedule and when ever this happens one of us who comes online use to send thousands of message to the other one, so that the person comes online as soon as he/she can and this also express how much we are missing each other. We started thinking each other as one of our own family members and we care for each other very much.

Then one day when I go to my jogging I call her and asked her to meet me at a tourist place of our city. After such a long gap of a complete 1 year and the day she left the tuition it was the first time when we was going to see each other again.

We didn't stay together for very long at that time and I was silent after seeing her I don't know why but I was pretty nervous after seeing her. I might have never understood that I have felling for her till the day when one of my friend asked that "Bro I can see in your eyes do you love her". I said no to him but while saying this my heart started beating fast and I started feeling uneasy for no reason, his question was simple to me but still I don't know why I started having doubt on my own self.

By God grace at the end I understood that yes I'm in love with her because she was the only one who makes me feel special for the first time, I can't stay without her even for a single day I love the way she cares for me and the way she has understood me. I'm full impressed by her, she always stays in my mind my thoughts my poem my quotes, I feel like we've a soulmate in our life and she is the one

After that I decided to propose her on 1st August, I was scared what can be the outcome will our bond is going to shattered now or will we start a new story. It was one of the biggest moments of my life. I was hoping that she says "Yes" and at the evening 2'o clock I texted her and proposed her, and then she said that "I never thought that you will do this give me some time to think" then at 7'o clock her reply comes........
