Pyaar Dosti Hai

🍀 New Beginnings 🍀

Aryahi's POV

At Night...

Finally! My school is starting tomorrow after post exam 10-day vacation. It almost felt like a month! My final exams got over in mid-March and since then I have been too excited to go to high school, even though it's in the same school. But you get it right? I mean I am finally in 9th!

And...shitt!!! I forgot to introduce myself 😅, I am Aryahi Chauhan, and I just went to Highschool!!! Sorry, can't get over that part.

Anyways...I am currently looking at the list of students in my new class. Every 2 or 3 years my school shuffles students from different sections for God knows what reasons. I just hate it because I have to find good friends all over again. It's not that I am an introvert or am shy to talk to people. But finding friends with whom you can be yourself is not easy, at least for me. The list of my class 9G has no friends of mine from my friend circle in 8th. And the worst part, all of them are together in 9E! Not fair 😑

I just noticed that there are 4 new admissions in our school for class 9th.
2 students in my class and third student in 9F and one in 9E. Hm...looks like this year I will be meeting new faces.

"Aryuu!!! You are still awake? If you don't remember then let me remind you, tomorrow morning your school is there. How will you wake up early if you sleep late at night?" My Mumma scolds me standing at the door of my room. That's when I noticed the time: 10.30pm
Shitt!!! It's late! Quickly mumbling a sorry I kept my phone away.

I had already prepared for tomorrow, so I quickly get done with my night routine and sit on the bed to chant for my Kanha. "Om Sri Krishnah Sharanam Mamah" After reciting it 108 times I slept.

Next Morning...

I startled from my sleep when I heard my irritating alarm. Uh!! I hate waking up at mornings! "Om Krishnaay Namah" As I open my eyes I wake up with a jolt as I realise it's the first day of my Highschool!!! "Hey Kanha, you know na ki aaj mera 9th mein pehla din hai? Ofcourse you know! Par mujhe aisa kyu lag rha hai jaise aaj kuchh special hone waala hai? Jo bhi ho sambhal lena."

I quickly do my morning business then sit to meditate. After that I get to the bathroom before my good for nothing brother hogs it. After dressing up in my uniform I go to living room for breakfast. I tried finishing my breakfast quickly as I was getting late. Papa dropped me and my brother at school.

As I made my way into the school campus, I spotted many of my friends and teachers. I greeted everyone while searching for my classroom. Well, I didn't need to wander around much because I knew this school like the back of my hand. Like c'mon! I have been in this school since Nursery.

As I entered the class, I found some of my so-called friends/classmates sitting inside... some talking with their friends and others roaming around and catching up with other people in different sections. I quickly kept my bag in 2nd bench of second row as I don't like to sit in front nor at back and went out to find my friends.

Just as I stepped out, I clashed with a person on the door. For a moment my stomach felt weird, kind of like butterflies but I ignored it. His calendar book fallen so I bent down to pick up the book and give it to him but got my head bumped into his head instead. I looked up to find the boy already looking down at me. His eyes were the first thing I noticed. So beautiful! Huh! What am I thinking?! He was a few inches taller than me and had a somewhat handsome face, atleast better than the other boys in class. He was one of the new admissions as I couldn't recognise him. I quickly picked up the book and gave it to him but by mistake my fingers touched a little with his and again that weird feeling in my stomach grew wilder. What is this Kanha?

I moved right to make way for him so I can go but at the same time he moved to his left. Then I went left and he turned right. Uhhh...so irritating! Just as I was about to step back he stepped aside and signalled his hand to let me go first. I smiled, quickly mumbled a thankyou and left from there with my heart racing. What happened to me Kanha ji?

I spotted Gitika and Akshaya my darling friends and my ex-classmates.
"Hiii beautifuls!" I startle them by snaking my arm around their waist from the back.

"Aaa!" Both screamed

"Did anyone miss me?" I ask.

"Ye kya tharki harkat hai teri" Akshaya tries to shoo me away.

"And No, I definitely didn't miss you" Gitika said.

I grin "Yea...that's why you were crying on our last day of 8th"

"Shut up!!" Gitika said.

"Anyways, tu different section mein kyu hai. Ham teeno ek saath hote toh achha hota" Akshaya said

"I know yaar!! Tum dono toh ek saath ho mujhe hi doosre section mein daal diya." I whine.

Just then I hear the bell ringing indicating the students to come for assembly. I walk back to my class after bidding both of them bye. Again I see the mystery guy in my class. Hm...Nice I'll talk to him after assembly. I love meeting new people and making friends, but I only have 2 or 3 close friends.

I saw 9E line going down for assembly and swiftly slipped in their line. Akshaya and Gitika got surprised.

Gitika "What are you doing here?"

"Um...going down for assembly!?"

Akshaya "Yea even I can see that but hamare line mein kyuu?"

Gitika "Agar pakdi gayi toh problem mein fas jaayegi...that too on the first day of school."

"Arey tum dono kitna tension leti ho. Aaj first day hai toh kisi teacher ko yaad nahi rahega ki konsa bacha konsi class mein hai aur hamare ID cards bhi toh nhi hai...toh ham safe hai!"

"Waah Arya! Kya planning karke aayi hai. Waise woh kon hai tere class ke line mein" Akshaya asked pointing towards the mystery guy.

"I don't know, he is new and I haven't talked to him yet!"

Just then I heard a teacher shouting from behind "Who's talking?"
I immediately shut my mouth and tried concentrated on the boring assembly but instead my mind went back to that mystery guy wondering about him.
