First sight

And there she entered the classroom with 20 other girls. The sight of each girl was a random one and so it felt the same for her.
I didn't had that spark or love at first sight for her but who knew that I will crave for her presence in the future. So as the first period started of my 10 grade in the first ever academy class. Hopes were high, new responsibilities, managing the upcoming hurdles, bucking myself to face the hectic routine.
It was the month of June and we were seated side by side with one arm distance. The first day was a casual day regardless of all the mischievous acts students do. The second day was when I had the glimpse of that wonderful being seated right beside me covered with hijab. So beautiful so gorgeous that it was over whelming. I couldn't resist just to look at her but I also didn't wanted to give a first impression of being a stupid creep. It was just a matter of time when our English teacher made me stand up for my introduction and I said to myself, "Yes! This is the moment show what you have got. Be the most confident person in the world and introduce yourself in the best possible manner". Yet all in vain I mostly embarrassed myself.
As the teacher moved towards her introduction student by student the fire of curiosity burned inside of me greater and then it was her turn. There I heard her melodious voice for the first time which was literally sweet as honey. By that introduction I came to know about her full name, her whereabouts, her school, her age, her father's name and I saved all of this in my mind and then wrote it in my register. I seriously don't know why I did that but I did that. Anyways it was kinda my job to arrive at the academy as soon as possible so that i can sit beside her. I had many fights, many push and pulls, many strategies to sit beside this specific person. It was a duty to do all of this and i couldn't help it not keeping this in mind that "Dude! This could get worse".  
Then there was my infamous friend who turned out to be a good and loyal buddy whom i called "Sibi". He was my counselor, my advisor and my crime partner in all of this. He kept an eye on her as i couldn't see her directly because it would be awkward so he sat to left of me(closely packed) and she sat to left of me(with a distance of one person).
Whenever I look back on these beautiful moments I just praise Sibi that if he was not there with me I couldn't have done it. Well all of this story is could haves and should haves but we are mere mortals and can not do anything about it.
As June passed my interest in studies developed intensively but all this interest was destroyed by just a simple eye contact with her. It was random and unwillingly but God it was like a electric shock passing through my body. There were butterflies in my stomach and i couldn't help but to do it over and over and over. The most funtastic period was of the chemistry one which happened to be the last one also. This period was like my platform to perform in many ways to make her laugh and I the most serious person in my family was making sounds and faces and arguing with the teacher on stupid topics JUST so she could notice me. All what I was doing was my will and that was not me (theoretically speaking) it was like a magnet which sort of attracted me towards her.
On 15th of July i had this marvellous discovery of her date of birth and it was just seven days away. Which was also a Saturday and our Parent Teacher Meeting at the academy. I was wondering if I should go there and take my Dad with me so that I can see her from different angles and also her parents etc etc. But i had my work to do so I bailed on that thought.
The night of 21st of July at exactly 9 past 15 I sent her Instagram follow request and waited like a baby make assumptions on what to talk to her about or what to say to her its actually funny that I practised a whole conversation. The notification beep which took my breath away that she has accepted my request and i am able to see her post and stories. Its quite famous how people react to their crushes, well that is partially true because I was feeling mostly the same. As it was not my first time talking to a random girl, I was quite confident and calm. But... I embarrassed myself completely by first sending her a direct message and then liking each and every post on Instagram. Like bro am I desperate or what?? Anyhow we talked to clear all of our differences and the conspiracy that were flying in our batch about us. So it was 12 and 22nd of July. I wished her. Yeahh! Achievement unlocked.
From that day(22 July 2017) onward we talked daily and increasingly till 5 September 2018. This was the time period in which I have done a lot, sacrificed a lot and most importantly learned a lot.
