BETTER FRIENDS

First Meet

The pandemic disease, Corona, spread across the whole country, leading to a complete lockdown, and all schools were closed. Online classes began, and online exams were conducted. However, there was no separation between Sanskar and Nidhi's friendship; they used to talk daily about their day and other things. One day, Abhay texted them, expressing his desire to be their friend. As they used to play games, Abhay also joined in and quickly became a very good friend of theirs.

Nidhi often talked with her female best friend, Ananya, whom Sanskar and Abhay also spoke to frequently and knew quite well, but Sanskar had never seen her face. As the year went by, the lockdown was about to end. Interestingly, Ananya had told Nidhi not to share any of her photos with Sanskar. You wouldn't believe it, but Sanskar already knew that she was Nidhi's best friend and had chatted with her but had never seen her face.

As the lockdown was about to end, Sanskar was excited to meet Ananya for the first time. After the lockdown, he advanced to class 7th, and in that class, Nidhi introduced him to Ananya. In a completely romantic setting, when Sanskar saw Ananya for the first time, he was captivated by her eyes and became enchanted. He felt he had found his true love, and her smile left him mesmerized, as he kept gazing at her throughout their entire meeting. 

Now, they all became friends and formed a close-knit friend circle with four members: Sanskar, Ananya, Nidhi, and Abhay. They shared a great bond and were now all in class 7th—Sanskar in the same school, Abhay in D.Paul School, and Ananya and Nidhi in DPS School. I'm mentioning the school names because they will be relevant later on.

During special holidays and occasions, they would meet each other, such as birthdays, festivals, Sundays, and during school events like Republic Day or Independence Day when their schools went to the stadium. They would gather there, visit cafes, talk a lot, have fun, eat, and explore. 

They all loved discovering new places in their city and enjoyed spending time together. Fortunately, they had the best parents who supported them, and another reason for this support was that all four of them were toppers, each with an annual percentage above 95%. They held state rankings and had many medals and trophies, which made their parents proud and comfortable allowing them to go out with their friends, considering they had been childhood friends. They became well-known personalities in their city, recognized as the best friend circle, and now, they were about to move up to class 8th.
