It's always about elders.Kids are always kind hearted and innocent.They were together since their birth,lived together,grew up together,played together,had food together,bought same dress together even make same hairstyles and chappals too. Even their teachers get confused of them. Her cousin always want to sit with her. After they grew up Riya stood still in her same stage of wanting friends and attention. But her cousin had concentraion on studies. When they reached 6th std they got their class shuffled and they separated. Riya got some new friends and her cousin stayed alone because she prefer that. She started to study. Riya's class teacher was kinda strict so she also started to study from home and class and she was praised by her teacher ,maybe that was the first proud moment of her life that she could remember. The teacher asks questions every morning,riya is so scared of this teacher so she studied that subject well. It was science. When teacher asks questions to whole class she was the only one who answered thrice and others got imposition and scolding from teacher and she asked everyone"am i taking class only for riya?" .And on parents meeting also teacher told to riya's mom "my class is worst, I'm going and teaching only because riya is there" . Her mom really became happiest person in the world on that moment. So still wonder why she started getting jeolous? . Yeah! As i said it's always about elder people,when they start to interrupt in their innocence kids also start to having these kind of bad thoughts . The thing most people hate 'comparison'. That's the thing which caused hate and jealousy in their heart. Even though she studied science well,she started to fail in maths. So she hated maths. But her cousin always get good scores in every subject. The only reason riya got to tell her parents is that's because she got some good teacher,my teacher's are not teaching properly. Her mom started comparing "look how good she is,look how hardly she's trying,look she scored this much mark,you are studying in same school why only she got good marks,why you are always failing in maths". Riya's anxiety got high. She started to cry when nobody's around. She started to feel like I'm not good in anything. But she was only good at madrasa (place where they go to get religious studies).
She was really good at madrasa. She always get 1st place or 2nd place till 4th. From 5th std her one of the cousin who studied in AUH (Abu dhabi) , who is a bookworm,well mannered and alot of different nature from theirs. So he is not so sync with their native place. He was like a kid. He also got admitted in the same school which is riya's. And even in same madarasa that too in same class. He is elder but since he is not much familiar with the language he had to study from the root. So they are in same class. But they rarely talk from class. Even if he doesn't know the language,he made it.he reached top position in class. Now they are competing each other.
They have public exam on 5th ,7th and 10th std like everyone have in 10th std of school. They tried hardly to get a good rank. But on result day unfortunately riya got 4th place. That hurted alot. She had best friends in madaras. She is not so good in studies. Sometimes she failed.
Her cousin shayad(the cousin mentioned above). He is her senior in school. In school also they don't give much attention each other even they are walking face to face,they pass without looking face. But they really love each other, for him she is his sister for her he is her elder brother,because they always wanted that. He don't have a younger sister and she don't have a elder brother. So they were always together.
When they reached 7th std. Again the public exam. She didn't give much pressure like she gave before. Her mom always had someone to compare with. In school Rafiya (twin like cousin mentioned before). In madarasa Shayad.
Still she studied.And she got 3rd place.Shayad got 1st place. It's hurted because out of 700 she got 692 and the girl who took 2nd place scored 693 out of 700. She is not jeolous but it's not fair because that teacher like that girl,even the entire class told that she made mistake in reading and how come she got full mark. That was so unfair. But that's okay. She believed that fate is always against her.
she changed alot.She became stubborn,angry baby and also cry easily. Everytime to hide the pain she always tried to put on smile,some people understand and some don't. Others always portrayed her as stubborn girl.Especially her mother. She loves her mother so much but always failed in showing because her mother have same kinda nature, even though she loves so much she don't know how to show or express , mostly it's expressed as anger. But both she and her mom have a kind heart.
On a vacation after 7th,they went a family trip to Delhi.Even though they had trips before this was the first time they are going too far. Everything was well planned. They booked tickets,bought some dress and packed everything. Their train was at night,they were 12 people so they can't sit together in one car so they made it as 2 trip,they were two families, her cousin rafiya's family and riya's family and from shayad's side only him. In first trip moothappa(maternal sister's husband) dropped them (cousins and sibilings) in railway staion. It's almost time for the train,their parents didn't reach yet. They're not picking up the call,even the gate closed so they can't cross track to reach this side they should keep car on opposite side and walk through track with huge bags and packs. But they didn't reach yet. Children saw the train coming from far. 'Where is their parents?' They started to worry. They lost their hope. Smiles faded away. Heart started to beat fast. Will they make it?
