Her school days

2. The day spent blushing

Some days later

These days passed like a small breeze of wind. I did not realised when almost one month passed. I was enjoying my school.

I found out many things about ishi. She is not bad at all. Infact she is fun, an over extroverted girl who unlike me do not hesitate to talk with boys. She also have some male friends. I asked her about them. She said that one of them was her bestfriend before I became her bestfriend friend in 6th class(Yes I forgot to tell you that she was my bestfriend before our fight in 6th class). Another one is Aarav, her childhood friend who teases her a lot. Her whole family knows him and the most interesting thing is he is the bestfriend of Krish,"No, wait, whatt!! What is interesting in it" I exclaimed in my mind. ** Shant hota beti** I mentally shouted to myself.

Now I and ishi are bestfriends. One day I told her about how the children of my apartment teased me and always says bad about me. She abused ishi singhania in behalf of me, ofc infront of me in anger. "How can a person named ishi can be so rude nad cruel, chudail hai woh ishi, Dayan hai woh, agar mai teri jagah hoti naa toh ab tak woh zameen ke niche hoti, all the ishi in the world I know are the sweetest par yeh ishi kalank ke ishi ke naam par." These were her exact words. And ofc she was complimenting herself by her own mouth. Though I liked how she cared for me and I felt attached to her.

On my way to school

Today I am very excited to go to school. I changed my glasses yesterday night and now these are the steel framed glasses on which I am looking very good. I was admiring myself from yesterday. [Yes my school
friends made me less insecure]

I am feeling more confident today. These glasses are looking very good on me. As I entered the class I noticed that each and every child are looking at me. My cheeks turned red when I saw shocked face of Krish as he was looking towards me.
Ashi ran towards me and hugged me. She broke the hug and the first word that came out of her mouth was,"Komal, you are really very beautiful" I blushed. Then I saw my other two girlies nodding in agreement and I blushed harder.
"Meri param sundari, meri sweetheart, meri janu, my baby, you are looking like an apsara with these glasses on your face." Hearing this the first word that came on my mouth was "Ishi!! Are you interested in girls"

Ishi made a face and shouted at me "Nooo" she seemed irritated by her face."She is saying right komal you are looking like a princess with glasses" exclaimed Anika. Simultaneous every girl came and complimented me and even two boys approached me and said that these glasses are looking very pretty on my face. Not I don't think I am any more insecure about my face. I am the happiest one in the world rn.

I settled on my seat beside ishi and suddenly my orbs shifted towards my lest side on the boys row. And guess what I saw, I saw ansh is sitting right beside me in the boys row and Krish was sitting beside him. Ansh looked towards me, he cleared his throat and said to me" how can someone look that beautiful in glasses like you komal I am not able to take off my eyes from you today." He winked and than smirked. Then suddenly he pulled his friend krish infront of me and said " isn't she looking the prettiest one in our class brother" he asked him. I was blushing the whole time and now I could feel warmth on my cheeks. Thankfully ansh's conversation stopped as mam entered.

After two periods

"Today we are having a surprise test of chemistry" our chemistry teacher said. I was not at all scared as I was well prepared for it. Huhh proud to be a bookworm. I completed the test in not more than 20 minutes as it was not that big though and I gave my copy to other children so that they can cheat.

I was sitting peacefully while other girls were cheating when suddenly I looked towards my left. My eyes widened. Krish was looking at me. As soon as he noticed that I saw him he gestured something from his fingers. 'He wants to cheat.' My eyes widened more, I thought he is a also a topper but I was wrong. I shrugged my shoulders and gestured that my test paper is not with me as I handed it openly to other girls to cheat.

He murmured something looking irritated by the whole girls group. My girls group can irritate anyone so easily by just showing their face only how can someone be this talented I wonder.

Next period

Again our teacher is late. I wonder why our biology teacher is always late as this was his' period only and their was not any day when he didn't came late.

I was thinking this when I suddenly saw the boys trio standing infront of me [Ansh, Krish and Aarav].
"Hey beautiful, are you lost in thoughts of me. How can my pretty handsome face attract girls this easily huh." He exclaimed.
Suddenly Anika jumped in the conversation"Yes ansh you said right... You are pretty but pretty ugly." She seemed irritated to him but I was enjoying their fight. Ishi was busy talking with aarav umm ashi.... wait... what... ashi is talking with krish but why.
I was jealous. I diverted myself to ansh and Anika fight." You are a surely a caterpillar" ansh said.
"No I am not"Anika said while gritting.
"Caterpillar.... Caterpillar... Anika is a caterpillar" ansh shouted.
I was loving their cute fight.
Their fight was interrupted by our teacher. "Uhmm.. uhmm" he fake coughed. I didn't encountered him coming.
"Why are you both fighting" he asked them both.
They quickly settled on their seats and I did the same too.

Recess

" So anika, how is ansh doing!!??" I asked Anika.
"Don't dare you ship me with that dog" Anika exclaimed.
"Ohhh!!! You both given such a cute nickname to each other.... Caterpillar and dog... I love it" I said with amuse.
"Do you me also to ship you with someone?!!" Anika taunted me with a big smirk.
I played with her " you will not be able to find a boy anika I bet"
"How about Krish" she whispering in my ears playfully.
A blush occurred on my cheeks. I tried to hide it and whispered shouted " Noooooo.... How can you ship me with him.... He is not good at all..." I fake angered.
"Now it is decided you and Krish 'KK' "
she exclaimed with joy.
I tried to hide my blush.

The whole day Anika along with my other two chipkalis teased me with Krish's name and eventually I blushed the whole day.
