The sun arose fully in the sky, the birds chirping the road is full of vehicles, beside it she slept while burring her face in the blanket -- hugging her pillow.
Sunlight was seeking inside her room from the window's curtains and a soft voice came to make her awake.
"Ishu wake up child it's morning", a soft yet melodious voice came and she sat on her bed. That was not anything other than her -- mom.
"It's already 8" she said while caressing her hair.
She yawned in sleep.
"Just a few minutes more", she replied and drifted back to her sleep again.
"Nope... You'll be late for the college", the way she said this sentence her sleep faded away and she sat on the bed quickly.
"Okay I'm up, morning", she said while hugging her.
"Get ready and come downstairs, I'm serving breakfast", she said and left her room - closing the door with a thud.
Finally my pretty sleep got disturbed and I woke up because I can't be late at college. I quickly freshened up and did my morning routine and went to get a shower.
But before that I've to choose what I should wear today.
I went to my wardrobe and grabbed a pink kurti with white formal pants and white duppata.
I got ready and added a little pinch of simple makeup. Then I went downstairs to have breakfast.
"Morning beta", dad said while coming wearing his coat and his stethoscope was on his shoulders.
"Morning dad", i said and noticed that he again does his nightshift.
"Again a nightshift ?", I asked and he nodded.
"For patients I have to do", he said and went to his room.
I did my breakfast and left for college.
"I don't want to be late today", I said to myself while driving.
And gladly I reached there on time.
I parked my car and was about to go but a voice interrupted me.
"Oyee! mujhe bhul gyi kya ?", a voice came from behind and I turned around to see her.
(Heyyy! Did you forget me ?).
"Nhin tujhe thodi bhulungi", i replied and pulled her into my arms.
(I'll never forget you).
She was not other than my right hand, my best, my best friend - Natasha Sharma.
Then we both went to our class.
After the class was over we went to the cafeteria.
"Yarr main bhot thak gyi hun aaj", she said while putting her books on the table.
(I'm really tired now).
"Tu tou aise kar rahi hain jaise yeh tera pehle din ho !", I replied while adjusting my dupatta.
(You're behaving like it's your first day !)
Then we ordered coffee for ourselves.
"Iss desert mein dry fruits hain ?", i asked while taking a sip and she nodded.
(This desert contains dry fruits ?).
"Tou phir main nhin kha skti", i replied.
(Then I'll not eat).
She doesn't argue with me back because she knows I have allergies from them.
"Chal yarr ab chalte hain nahin tou lecture miss ho jayega !", she said while getting up and I nodded.
(Let's go otherwise we'll miss the lecture).
I was going out of the cafe, checking my books but then I bumped into someone.
I was about to kiss the floor but opened my eyes when nothing hurt me.
I opened my eyes and found that he was holding me by my hand. Only one hold of his was enough to handle me.
That's when the people around me faded away, the time stopped as his black yet deep eyes met with mine. No sound I can hear - nothing.
At this time I want no one to interrupt at this moment I just don't know why ?.
His hairs were messy.
It's the first time for me my heartbeat has increased this much. It feels like it is going to explode.
I was so pissed off into my thoughts just then his voice came and he spoke up.
"Aap theek hain ?", he asked.
(Are you okay ?).
I nodded and thanked him.
"Thik hain na tu ? Dekh kar nhin chak sakti ?", Natasha asked me, still checking on me.
(Are you really okay ? Can't you see?).
"Areee hainn main theek hun", i replied, shrugging off my thoughts.
Then we went to our class.
It's evening time and our classes are over. Now we're heading towards home.
"Ishu tera earing kaha hain ?", she asked, blocking my way.
(Ishu where is your earring ?).
"Huh !?", I checked and found that I lost my left earring.
"Shayad class mein reh gya hoga", I told her.
(It might have been in class).
"Phir abb ??", she asked.
(Then now ??).
"Chhod ek earring hi tou tha !", I assured her.
(Leave it, it was just an earring).
"Ab Ghar chale nhin tou hum dono ko daant padegi !", i asked her and she nodded with a laugh.
(Let's go to home or otherwise we both get scolded).
I was getting bored as I don't want to attend accountancy's lecture, my friend was also absent today he said he'll come but a little bit late.
"Woww ! What a boring day it is !", I said to myself lost into my own thoughts.
Then I went to cafe to have some coffee, I was about to open the door then someone bumped into me.
Her head bumped into my chest and she was about to fall, she closed her eyes in fear but I carefully held her by her hand.
She opened her eyes and I found my self to lost into her eyes. Her eyes look beautiful as they are of honey brown color and even looks incredible when sunlight hits.
The time around me stopped, everything faded away and I don't want anyone to disturb - also to ruin this moment.
She had something which makes me feel uneasy for her. I found my heartbeat to increase so much. It feels like my heart was not on my side today.
Her tensed face looks incredibly pretty in the sunlight.
As she was the first one whom I stared at. I wanted to speak but my throat was not allowing me too.
"Aap theek hain ?", I asked.
She nodded and left.
I looked at her disappearing figure, and something arose inside my chest.
I kept my thoughts aside and was about to enter but something caught my eyes.
An Earring.
It must be of her.
I picked it up and turned around but couldn't find her.
"Shayad woh chali gyi hongi", I muttered under my breath.
(Maybe she went).
Just then I saw him coming towards me it was no one but my best friend, my behalf - Aarush Mittal.
"Bro I've been searching for you !", he said while running towards me.
I quickly kept that earring inside my pocket. Don't want any uneasy controversy.
"Chal ab chalte hain class ke liye", he said and I nodded.
(Let's go to attend the class).
Time skips it's evening and we both headed towards our home.
While driving a thought came into my mind.
Why have I stared at her for so long ?.
Why did I keep that earring into my pocket ?.
I touched my pocket and found that it was still there.
Don't know why I have done this but now my heart was stopping me from giving it back to her....
