It's okay to be Imperfect

Week 2 : New friends (except the fact that there are none)

'Aneri.. ANERI!'
as soon as Aneri heard the loud voice she could very well conclude that it was her Biology teacher (Mr. Akhil Verma) to whom she was supposed to submit a project of nearly 20 pages.
'Yes sir. Sorry sir i couldn't..'
'Well we'll see how much sorry  you are in your report card! and why Aneri? I thought you were a sincere student who'll at least try to gather some info for the project but when i spoke to the other pupils of the class they said you spoke to none of them. None!'
'Sir, it's not that i didn't want to.. actually they don't really like...'
'Well this is High school honey. You have to do something. I dont like hearing i-dont-like-them-they-dont-like-me kind off stuff. And yeah for you information let me tell you one thing. You'll be marked 50% for this activity as you're new but this works out only for this time so you better..."
'Sorry sir. Thanks.'
Aneri sighed.
She went back to her class and stood still staring at all her classmates who did not even say Hi to her even though knowing she's new.
'I wonder what's wrong with me..' Aneri whispered to herself and someone came near and said
'Nothing.'
'What? What?' Aneri started palpitating.
'What? are you talking to me? Hello i'm Rohit.'
'did you just answer a question which i asked to myself?'
'well yeah. sorry.'
'na i don't.. well.. okay.  bye rohit'
Aneri (whose shy.. i mean like really shy. you're not getting it still. SHE IS SHY AF)
ran as far away as she could from Rohit leaving him blush for all day long.
While studying at night Aneri kept on recalling the whole conversation.
It was something.
Someone, that too a guy actually spoke to her and that too in a real polite manner.
'Hello Meghna?'
'Yeah. Aneri! Hii! glad you called! it's been 2 weeks since you joined your new school? hows it? made new friends? tell me everything!'
'Okay please breathe first. And ya school is good and about that friends part.. umm no new friends.'
'Awwh why?'
'They don't seem to like me.'
I still don't know why there was an awkward silence after that statement.
'Well so you want me to believe that you did not speak to anyone?'
'Actually there was this guy..'
'Omg aneri! a guy? who? hot? weird? boyfriend material'  { see that's the perk of having best friends, they complete your sentence without your slightest concern }
'Meghna will you shut up? See he came up to me and we spoke for 12 seconds and too was very awkward.'
'Okay i don't care. One last question, was he hot?'
'He's Rohit.'
'Okay Aneri i'll never understand you.'
'Bye i've gotta study'
'Bye.'
Aneri somehow could not manage to sum up everything. It was the most weird feeling she has ever felt.
'Love at first sight is unrealistic and stupid.'
she said to herself pretty loudly and tried to sleep but she couldn't.
