Hola! so heres a picture of Nishit. please let me know how you feel about this story.

“You want me to kill him?”

“Be practical clar”

“Cant I even punch him once?”

“You won’t hurt him clar, I won’t let you”

“But he...”

“I’m fine clar really”

“How can you be fine?”

“I don’t know but I’m ok, he’s here now and I can’t just stay in the collage ladies room forever can I?”I said trying to hide the pain in my heart, but I knew it was the truth I couldn’t hide my whole life. So I stepped out, took a deep breath, and proceeded toward my classroom. Rats gave me a reassuring smile which I returned and took a seat in my class.

                                         Soon a light brown haired handsome boy captured everyone’s attention simply by entering the class, I avoided him. He didn’t even glance at me, which hurt me even more. Even after all these years I had a tiny little hope that someday he would apologize to me and things will return back to normal. Its human nature to hold on to hope isn’t it? To ignore the fact that it was impossible for it to happen? To clung on to hope no irrespective of the chances of it to actually happen?

                                         The bell rang and that is what broke my flow of depressed thoughts. I was actually happy that I had moved into Astra beforehand, I didn’t want ma to see me in this condition.

                                         Before I knew it was lunch, our normally happy and excited group was silent today. Our food lay untouched even though it was pizza day. I realized how much my friends were cared for me and I, on the other hand, couldn’t even clear up my mess for them. Now that I had brought this upon my group I had to be the one to bring a smile to my mates’ pretty faces and I knew exactly how to go about it.

“So rats, how’s Afreen?” I asked Tara wiggling by eyebrows at her.

                                         She immediately started blushing ten shades of red while Clarice roared with laughter. We all knew Tara had this massive crush on Afreen Asir who was a classmate of ours. It was too evident to find actually they were the cutest couple… well not officially a couple yet.

                                         At home I was too busy to go back to my depressed state as both- Tara and Clarice moved in today, I was helping them in unpacking their suitcases. By eight o’clock we were too tired to cook something so we ordered meatzaa from dominoes and slept off. I knew with seeing nishu everyday, it would be hell difficult for me but still I had to take one day at a time for my mother, for my friends, for myself till the day when he wouldn’t be able to affect me anymore…and with the help of my love ones I know that I will be able to achieve this someday. I mean I just have to see him, once or twice in the day…its not that I have to stay with him or something, I can handle that. These days won’t be that difficult…hopefully.

                          ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

                                        I was the first one to wake up in the morning. I checked my cell to see that it was still six. I brushed my teeth and prepared three cups of coffee. I woke my friends up by yelling obnoxiously loud they all scrambled to see who it was, I grinned wide at them and then escaped to the bathroom as they threw cushions, TV remote along with each and everything they could lay their hands on.

                                        I took a long head-bath and dressed up for collage. After drinking my cup of coffee and packing my books I realized that Tara and Clarice were still getting ready so I watched an episode of ‘supernatural’ before we all left for collage.

                          ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

“WHAT!! There’s no way in hell I’m doing that”

“Language Miss.Sen”

“Sorry ma’am” I said bowing my head showing her respect

                                        After school when we were about to go home, I was called at the principal’s office, she asked me for a favor but it was too much for me.

“Miss.Sen I’m not asking you to tutor him for life, all I’m asking is that is you could help him catch up with the already completed work, once he’s with us you can stop, shouldn’t we help a new student Miss.Sen?”

“But ma’am, why me? I’m not a ner…I mean I’m not academically brilliant!”

“You aren’t weak either”

“But cant Uttam Narayan do the job? He comes first in class!”

Princi sighed and told me,

“the only reason I’m asking you to do that because I’ve come to know that you both know each other well in fact I’ve heard you’ve been pretty close friends so he won’t take learning from you as an attempt to humiliate him”

“Ma’am I…”

“Miss.Sen all I’m asking from you is to try once, if you still can’t tutor him…or if he needs a better teacher I will arrange for someone else to tutor him”

                                        When I realized that there was no point in fighting with her further I agreed to give it a try, regretting my decision at once. She smiled at me and I fake smiled at her and walked out of her office cursing her and cursing fate as soon as I was out of earshot. Silently asking karma what bad had I done to have to suffer like this?
