‘ Hello! Yes mom I've reached Dehra Doon an hour ago. I'm on my way to the campus. Yes I've taken everything now stop worrying okay.. Mom I've reached the college I'll catch you later.. Bye ’
Ughh.. She still treat me as if i was born yesterday.
Driver- Mam.. We are here
Okay thanks.. Here's the fare..
Thanks. He said
I pulled out the luggage from the taxi which weighed a ton and started walking slowly towards the campus when my eyes caught the entrance
‘Doon College of Education’
My dream college... actually not the college but the place was no less than a dream... I've always loved Dehra Doon..
“ I just wish I am able to make a best friend here”
I was exploring the college and suddenly a football hit me hard on my back and i fell down
‘ouchh!!.. What a welcome I received’ I said in pain
‘Sorry girl.. I didn't see you.. Here.. Let me help you’
I looked up and was confused
‘Is this a boy or a girl’
I thought
‘Hey I'm a girl okay’
She said
‘Are you a mind reader? ’
I asked
‘No. But everyone gets confused when they look at me. But I'm surely a girl. If you don't believe me I can show you’
‘No.. Stop.. Just help me getting up’ i said
The girl.. Which she said she is.. Was not looking like a girl at all
She was wearing clothes which i was sure were boy's clothes.
She had tied her hair up and was wearing a monster cap.. But.. She's a “girl”
‘Fresher.. ?’
She asked
‘yes.. And you’
I asked her
‘me too.. What's your name.. ’ she asked me
‘Piya’... I replied
‘Piya.. Hey.. I am Misha.. But i prefer calling myself Mish.. Misha is such a girly name no..’
‘Yeah 😰’ i said.
And we went towards the office for admission procedure
An hour later...
‘Hey Piya..there's no class today.. Would you like to join me for mountain climbing ?'
‘But I've never climbed a mountain’ I said
‘Don't worry.. Just come you'll enjoy it. ’
‘If you say so’ I said and we left
Half an hour later
‘Wow.. It's beautiful.. I just love this place’ i was amazed
‘Of course it is.. Follow me’
She said and i followed her
I wore my safety equipments and was ready for the adventure
‘I've looked everywhere.. Where's he? ’
Misha was looking here and there
‘Who? ’ I asked
My Broddy.. She said
‘Broddy..?? ’
I asked
‘yeah.. Bro + buddy.. Broddy..’
Ohh 😰.. What could i say..
‘no.43..’
‘Misha ..its my turn.. I am 43’
‘Okay.. You go.. I'll wait for him.. Best of luck and hold the rope tightly ’ she said and I left.
‘Ohh.. The mountain is huge.. I'm scared’
I was really scared.. But swallowed my fear.. Took a deep breath ..held the rope and started climbing..
After climbing for a few minutes.. I saw a lizard.. Which was my biggest fear..
I screamed and the rope slipped from my hands
‘No!!! I shouted.. Save me I'll die.’
I closed my eyes and thought of my family while falling down
Then.. I felt someone holding me
I opened my eyes
I saw a handsome face holding me in his one arm and he was holding the rope from the other hand.
‘Am I in heaven ’
I asked him
He smiled and said
‘No.. But you surely look like an angel’
‘Kabir!!! ’
I heard Misha shouting..
The boy then put me down
‘ Are you fine Piya? ’
Misha asked me.. She was worried
‘Ya.. He saved me’
I said looking at him
‘Thank God Kabir you came at right time.. ’
‘Kabir? ’
I asked Misha
‘Piya.. He's Kabir.. My “Broddy” I told you about.. And Kabir.. It's Piya.. We just met today
Misha introduced us
‘Hey.. He said smiling.. I am happy you are here ’ he said
I smiled at him
‘Love story? ’ asked Misha
He smiled and I blushed..
