MY FIRST LOVE

Arrival of Him

I returned from school very early today as it was Saturday.

Weather was very beautiful today. Dark clouds can be seen in the sky, winds were blowing fast, trees were reacting to that wind.

It's indicating the signs of Rain.

It will be nice though because everyone is tired of the summer. 

I don't know why I was feeling different today. I was feeling uneasy.

I was feeling so nervous. you know, when the viva is going on in class and the next roll number is yours, that time we feel so nervous and we feel that in stomach.

This was the exact what I'm feeling today.

I came back to home from school, got freshen up, had my lunch and I was watching tv, That's when it started raining.

"I knew it". 

I like Rain so much. I wonder who does not?

Rain and the peace full weather it brings along with it is loved by almost everyone on this earth.

Today it was the First Rain of monsoon.  "Finally summer ended" I sighed.

I opened the window to see the rain. I exhaled the earthly smell of the mud drenched in rain. I took my hand out of the window to feel the raindrops. 

How peace full it feels to do this !

I looked here and there, there was no trace of any human on the road as it was raining. but then my gaze went to the house which lies at opposite of the house which lies at our left side.

That house belong to Chougule family.  That house is the same house whose construction was going on. Now the construction is almost done. Only some work is left. 

So, I saw that Krishna was looking at me. He was smiling mischievously while looking at me. I got confused and gave him a confused look but he didn't stopped grinning and went to his flat which is in our apartment. I stood there confused.

"What happened to him?" I asked to myself.

Then I again started watching TV to distract myself. 

After some time I again came to the window to close it because now it was raining heavily and now few raindrops were coming inside from the window.

But then my gaze again went to that house and krishna was there still looking at me with that mischievous grin. 

But with krishna there was another familiar figure present.

and he was...

OMG!

He was Chinmay.

He is back in town. My first male bestfriend is back in my town.

We both looked at each other,  smiled and waved a 'Hi' to each other. 

Now I understand why Krishna was grinning. He knew about our friendship. I remember , once in these few months when Chinmay was not here,  we were just passing by each other and that time he stopped me and told me that Chinmay was missing me . I went  shocked and happy both.  listening to that I felt some tingling sensations in my stomach which I never felt before.

Chinmay was missing me.

OMGiiiieeee!

Now Chinmay was back in town. I don't know why but I was feeling so happy.

Today the First Rain of monsoon arrived along with the Arrival of Him.

As the rain brings the peace full weather along with it. Just like that, he brought my happiness back. I was no more feeling that emptiness which I felt when he was not here.

Even I didn't knew that the emptiness I was feeling that was because of absence of him.

After waving 'Hi' to each other, I closed the window and he also went back to their apartment as it was raining too heavily now.

In the evening, I met him again. We had conversation on some random topics. I got to know that he came here for the "House Warming Ceremony' of the new house of Chougule family. The construction is almost done so the house warming ceremony will be held soon. 

Chinmay will be helping them in the arrangements and all.

After that again our routine went busy just like it was in the wedding preps a few moths ago.

This time I was not going to their house daily, because this ceremony is of course different from wedding  and there aren't any kind of rituals. It will be only one day event.

But Chinmay was helping in arrangements and along with that he used manage to play cricket and other games with us. 

Our bond was the same as it was when he left. and now we are even spending more time with other. I mean other friends are also with us but still I stay with mostly. Because I don't have that kind of bond with anyone else.

Wait, What kind of Bond? 

I don't know but with him I feel safe, and I feel that even if I made any kind of mistake, he will handle it, he will understand me, he will protect me. I don't have to me much care full and pretentious with my behavior when I am with him. Maybe because he is older than me and mature. 

so now we spend more time together, playing many games, unintentionally watching sunsets and moon gazing together.

Unintentionally?

Yes, because we go on the terrace to play any game but then sometimes we watch sunsets.

Just like that we spend most of our time.

Together.
