It's summer after all, it's play time ,more than that , I have completed my secondary education .New thoughts were hitting my mind. I've planned many events with my buddies but I've come to know that it wasn't going to happen as my dad's been made the Dean of the university which I have planned to take up my architecture course!!

It isn't a big deal as my dad would never come in my fun way .It's rather a great thing but the worst part is that I have to leave my place, my friends and move to a new town; singleton ! Oh man ! That sucks !

But I believe ' everything's for our own good'. I thought I have to stay in hostel but as we were moving to the same town I can be with my family ............After the au re voir episode, we started to move to singleton in our Nissan at midday and we reached by midnight the other day .Our furniture and accessories were already there ,but they weren't arranged yet .

Mom showed my room, thought it would be messy but to my surprise it was well equipped and furnished already, after all parents care a lot about their kids, I fell asleep right away on my soft mattress

First day in Singleton

The soft warmth of the sunlight through my left window woke me up , I tumbled downstairs hearing my parents rumble and they looked hurried, never mind ! they always looked so .

Mom requests me to have my breakfast out, as they were leaving  early. You see , Mum's very nice but when the time counts she's as cold as ice , though she melts like ice too ! More over the kitchen wasn't fully equipped to cook breakfast either. After they were out I had my bath and got ready  .

It's then I heard something which sounded like chirps of birds but didn't know what it really was, heard the same sound once again.

Now I've realised that it was the calling bell. Being new , I wasn't yet familiar with the bell. I went down , opened the door.

Saw no one !! Slammed the door ! It must be some neighbourhood kiddo !  annoying brats !

' Just remember aah! You were a annoying brat once as well ' my subconsious tells me . I smile .

CockOo ! CockOo ! 

'But I wasn't this annoying' ! I banged the door open all of a sudden ! Did I drool just now !

A..a.. girl raised up on her feet moving her head as if to throw her silky smooth dark hair off her face .I stood staring her , and waiting for her to speak .she looks pretty in her pink top &jeans .

"I was tieing my lays an....." she twitched her plump lips .

Her innocent looks !!

'You can't even know the difference between innocent & tense looks ! ' my subconsious interrupts.

May be, it was because I looked new to her .
so I asked her, "what can I do for you?"

"Can I have my cricket ball which fell in your backyard ?" She requested with a soft and low tone .

"Sure !"

"So can I come in ?" asked she.

"Yes ! Yes , come in," I say moving away from the door and letting her in. But I didn't even know the straight way to the backyard ! But she moved gracefully as if it was her own house . It looked like it was me who was following her to the backyard. We reached there , she went in search of her ball and I sat on the wooden deck watching her .

After a few minutes ," Do you need a helping hand ? " I asked her.

"That would be great ,"she smiles . Aah ! Her smile !! Did my heart just skip a beat ?!

"Where do you think the ball fell ? "

She pointed towards the roses which my mom installed as soon as we reached here. I felt a little terrified, if any of her roses were damaged . We both reached there and checked for the ball, I moved the roses very gently which made her chuckle at me and I giggled .

Our backyard looks to be surrounded with wooden fences three sides and with an exit to the fence opposite to the house's backyard entry .

We both observed a fresh mud mark on the wooden fence which was behind the roses.

I am sure that the ball bounced back .
" What do you think ? " I smile looking at my bike .

She nodded in agreement .We both turned back and headed towards my ninja ; my bike. That's it ! Right under under my bike and I gave it to her.

She hurled it the other side of the wooden fence , it's a classy throw ! I could hear voices of boys from the other side .We walked out , mean time she asked my name.

"Alex ,"I replied and asked hers.

"Megan," She smiles.

"Nice to meet ya," I say, she smiles ,

Meanwhile I saw someone climbing the fence through ajar backyard door. Now I get it  ! She's here to call me to play.

"But why didn't she ask ?" I thought.

I wanted to know, so I called her out loud ,

" Why don't you call me yet ?" As she walked a few steps ahead of me.

She turned back surprised "Ho... how did you guess that I came here to call you ,"she exclaimed moving towards me.

"I saw someone of your friends just now climbing the fence ,you could have done that before rather than come here and ask for the ball, so I've deduced that you've come here to call me to play ," I replied ,

"But why didn't you call me in the first place ," I asked her.

"Thought that you were going out , as you look tidy, so I couldn't ask," she answered.

"Going out in this weather would be good, but making new friends is great," I remarked, "Isn't it ?"

"Let's go then ," she exclaimed.

We both had a little talk , Oo !  it's her who talked , while I just hummed with her staring into her greeny blue eyez and we walked to her place . Now I got to know that she's the daughter of my father's friend who arranged us  house, that is why she knows my house very well than me . I've heard that her father's an well known architect from my dad and a good friend of his. I looked at the players in her backyard and their backyard looked larger than ours, the house as well. She asked me to stay tuned for a little while as the match was about to end and she joined the play.

I was seated in the pavilion, meantime I ordered for a cheesy pizza .I watched their play and they seemed well but two of them looked exceptional ,the bowler as well as the batsman.

Cricket : A game played between two teams of 11 players each ,where a person of a team hits the ball as far as possible thrown by the bowler of another team and it's fielded by the players , it's a little similar to baseball , But unofficially it can be played having same number of players in each team.
