My Favourite Unfinished

Chapter 2

Six years ago.
July 15, 2018.

The girl I was, I was pretty neutral even though it was my first day in Uni.

Everyone would be pretty much excited because it's a "new life" or something but me? Meh. I was pretty much normal.

I mean, you just gotta study hard and get a life and live it to the fullest.

"Looking gooodd..", my mom mused gazing at me.

My mom is an Indian, her name is Aadhira.

"Thanks... I guess?"

"Be a little excited will you?"

"I am fine, thank you."

She glared at me and punched my arms playfully.

"Oww..", I laughed.

"Anyways... Please make some friends except Kai. Please."

"I know I know..."

"Caleb! You never tell her anything!", she yelled.

"She is a grown up now, she can handle things in her own way!", my dad called out from the living room.

I looked at my mom and shrugged.

"God... These two!", she raised her hands in an exasperated way and left the room.

It might come out as a little weird since I didn't move out yet because I am already 18.
Well, my mom didn't want me to and my dad agreed to that.

I followed her out, "Okay wish me luck!"

"Good luck on your first day, ami", my dad said smiling and my mom joined, "Good luck, love."

I smiled and waved at them as i left for Uni.

Don't get me wrong, I was nervous as fuck.
Kai was the only friend I got that time and we got pretty lucky, getting selected in the same Uni.

After 10 minutes of walking, i finally reached.

I took a deep breath and stepped in.

I immediately started looking for Kai while walking towards my locker.

Thank God, she came.

"Hey! Sorry I am late!", she said panting.

"Chill... When are you not?"

She rolled her eyes, "Anyways! Ready for the Uni?", she asked grinning.

"I guess..."

"We will get used to it!"

She grabbed my arm and led me to the auditorium hall where the school director will probably give a very boring welcome speech.

I was pretty sure he says the same speech to every batch every year.

Oh, I was pretty average looking and chubby with a... I don't know? Good personality?

I never stood out, because well, I never wanted to, but I was always sure I made people feel comfortable.

Well, I am half Indian and half American.
So fairly speaking I had an Indian skin.

Not white, but not entirely brown either, somewhere in the middle.

Fair but Indian fair, with dark, short hair and I had a small ring on the nose.
And I am glad I got my mum's features in me, she is a beauty.

After the very long boring speech, we attended the classes.

There was one girl, who stood out.
She was a pure Indian, I can tell just by looking at her.

She had nice brown skin, dark, long, wavy hair, those iconic Indian thick arched eyebrows and she wore a bindi.

Not gonna lie, she was looking cool as fuck.

It wasn't until she glared at me, then I realised I was staring.

Oh shit-

I immediately looked away feeling embarassed.

Great Amiya just great! Your mom's dream of you increasing your friend circle will always remain a dream if you do things like this!

Thank God, the bell rang, I rushed out of the classroom.

She didn't notice did she? That I was running away from her in embarrassment.

Somehow, I reached my locker and i exhaled.

I kept my books and grabbed some other subjects I had to attend.

"Hey", a voice I never heard before and the most soothing one at that and... It was an Indian accent?

I closed the door and looked, and it was that girl!
Wow my luck...
"H-hey..", I managed to stutter.

She chuckled, "You were staring in the class."

"Sorry... It's just- you were Indian and I felt good seeing an Indian. So..."

"Oh... You are an Indian too? I mean you look kinda Indian"

"Yeah my mom is, so I am too, I mean not citizenship wise if you know what I mean-"

"Yeah yeah I got you."

I nodded.
I offered my hand to shake, "Amiya. Amiya Hart."

She shook my hand, "Aadhvita. Aadhvita Sahani."

I smiled, "Nice to meet you, Aadhvita"

"Nice to you meet you too, Amiya."
