Smriti's pov,   
The piercing sound of the alarm clock brought me back from the world of sleep. I started to wriggle and stretch within my cosy,warm heaven ,that is,my own bed.Its Saturday. A new  day,a new beginning. I completed my daily chores and got ready for the day.
    
I could hear the sound of thunder and realised that it was raining outside. Yes rain which actually brings a genuine smile on my face.The smell of rain thrills my soul and soothes me.And why I don't know it makes me feel that the world has sad days too.Perhaps I am not the loneliest and depressed soul out here.  

In the evening

Well,today my friend Nandini has thrown a weekend party at her residence.She was quite excited when she invited me saying that she has invited some of her new friends too.

At the party

I was having a gala time in the party. I met some her new friends. After sometimes Nandini called upon everyone and said, "Hey guys, we have got someone out here with a beautiful voice and can really sing well.And it's none other than our dear Smriti.Plzz sweetie sing a few lines for us" " But..." " No buts...dear plz...it's a request from all of us plzz" " Umm...ok"

"Oh gosh!!" I was really nervous;  Singing in front of so many people. Anyways I decided to sing the song "Skyscraper " by Demi Lovato. I always feel deeply connected with this       song.Besides Demi has always been my inspiration and my all-time favourite singer. And I started the song-
" Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching tear drops in my hands
Only silence as it's ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel like
There's nothing left of me

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
  Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

As the smoke clears,I awaken
And untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better
To watch me while I bleed?
All my windows are broken
But I'm standing on my feet

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

Go run,run,run
I'm gonna stay right here
Watch you disappear
Yeah,oh
Go run,run, run
Yeah, it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds out there

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Oh oh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
 

(Like a skyscraper)

Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper "

As I completed the song,I could hear a loud round of applause from everyone, but my eyes got interlocked with a tall ,dark and handsome figure standing at a distance. There was a bright smile on his face,it was so hypnotizing that I couldn't help but smile back........
