A busy life has only one hope to live and that is nothing but the old and golden days, every human wants to live the life that is free from everything, that has just the happiness in it and we are among them yes, we that is Meeni and Meenakshi Sharma are facing the same situation. Where we are in different phases of our life but still wants the old and golden days back in our life. We know there are such reasons where no one wants the past to be repeated, but everyone wants the school days back.

Today we are studying in different streams and in different schools, of our region. Being busy with daily routines we are not in much contact with each other that is we meet occasionally, today being my birthday and I had invited jaymin shah for the birthday celebration, we met after about six months because I still remember that the last I met was her birthday. Anyways we are happy that at least we met again and I was happier because she came specially to meet me on my birthdays.

My birthday celebration was normal with a small dance, cake cutting, and a dinner. There were about twenty friends who were invited and some of my family relatives were there, my birthday got to be the remarkable one because of jaymin.

We use to be a very good friends of each other, we spare lots of time together, we hook up together and the best thing was we were sisters from another mother, so it was like none of my birthday got complete without her. Anyhow we had a very good conversation on my birthday regarding our school days and it is such that we really missed those days.

Meenakshi : Do you remember the day of results, when I got fail and you scored 1st rank in the whole school.

Meenu : yes! dear I do remember, but I told you hundreds of time that don't remember such days, still why?

Meenakshi : It's not that I get hurt when I remember that day. the main thing was when I got faild, I thot my parents will scold me beat me, but my assumption got wrong.

Meenu : can you be clear dear, actully I am not getting you.

Meenakshi : actully I had worked hard for my exams but I don't know why mind didn't accept such things and so I got fail.

Meenu : My dear! no one's mind are same it is different and you have to accept it.

Meenakshi : yes Meenu I know and I had already accepted it but what I want to tell you is.....

Meenu : Yes plese tell me what is going on with you.

Meenakshi : Actually after exams I was worried that if I got faild parents will scold and beat me but on the day of results it was completely opposite to what I thought.

Meenu : Is it so! why what had happened, this we had never discussed.

Meenakshi : yes dear I know I have not told you but it was because of my result that I forgot.

the thing was that my result was fail and I was really worried that what will happen now, I was worried for my parents, I was worried if the would scold me, I was in a situation that anything can happen to me, was blank and alone.

When my parents saw the result they got sad, and broken, I saw them they were having tears in their eyes but still they didn't show it, I could fell they were not happy but still they managed to hide their sadness. I came to know that it would be the worst day of my life, suddenly my Mother called me inside and asked me about the exams.

As soon as she asked I started crying, and told her that I don't know why it happened, I had worked hard, I had studied well but don't know why I faild, when my Dad saw me crying, he stood up and came near to me, I was frightened that he will beat me, but instead of beating he came near and wiped my tears seat besides me and hug me.

he told me that why to cry for results, failure is a part of life and every person has to face it today or tomorrow. every one know their limitations or the comfort zone and almost all work within that limit but the one who come beyond that limit will always get success. Those words of my father are still in my heart and mind. I literally felt luckiest that I have one of the best parents in this world, and not only this I promised my parents that I will work hard and pass all the exams of life.

Meenu : wow thats really great of you, I am sure you would be on the seventh cloud at that time, and even I am so happy for you that you have a very good parents.

Hey come on dear just enjoy the party, I am so sorry that I had started with all the old stuffs, leave it lets enjoy the party, let's go and dance. for some time we were again at our real life, but we all know whenever friends gather everyone will remember their school life, and it is all about the life that every one enjoyed and lived a lot, and those were only the days that each and every one likes to save it to the heart.

while we were enjoying the dance in party my parents came, oh I am so sorry that I forgot to tell you that my parents were not their at home for some time as they were out to have a gift for me, when the came back my friend mini stoped dancing and went to my parents to greet them she hugged my mother and told that Meenakshi is really very lucky that you are with her, my mother was surprised to hear such words and that too all of a sudden, she asked Meenu what happened, then she told about the words that I told her about my result, my mother hugged too and told her that it's not about being lucky and all, it is all about the parents love towards their children, even your parents are the same so don't worry and enjoy the birthday.

we got back to the dance had enjoyed it, after some time my dad asked me to stop the music as he wanted to announce something,

we all stoped dancing and I asked my dad to continue, he came to the centre and we all were in surrounding to him. All of a sudden he call me to the centre, wished me, hugged me, and gave a very big box as a gift. I was surprised to see a big box as it was unexpected for me, my dad asked me to open it in front of all, so me and meenu both started to unwrapped it after some time when the wrapper was removed, I had tears in my eyes, I gave a tight hug to my mother and father because the box was of my jewelry set that I asked for before three years

now when I came know that the senior had fooled me I didn't bother more I went to the peon and asked him the class room number, he showed it and I went to the class, I was standing at the entrance of the class and I saw that the class was full there was not a single space in front rows, and the things that gave shock was that the girls and boys not in uniform, even the teacher inside class was seating on the chair and teaching, I was shocked because I have never seen that a teacher seat and teach, still I thought it might be something that is called modern difference.

I took permission from the teacher to get in, she allowed me and scolded be for getting late, she was not knowing that I was a new student so she asked me to stand at the door as a part of punishment. I tried to convince her that I am a new student and it was the first day of school for me but she didn't hear a word. After sometime one student from the back bench stood and throw a paper airplane towards me. at first I didn't respond them but when one more airplane came to my head I got angry, I took the paper plane which was landed on floor, the second I took it in my hand, teacher turned towards me and saw a plane on my hand, now it was a situation that I was at fault according to the teacher, when she scolded each and every student of class started laughing and shouting. I tried to convince her that it was not my fault but she didn't listen at all. after her lecture she called and and warned me to behave properly from next time, but who will explain her that I had not done anything.

anyways she went out and I was still standing at the door because there was not a single place to sit. still my eyes were searching the place to seat, I felt so bad that none of the student in class was ready to help me as new student of the class, after sometime one more teacher came to the class to teach, when she saw me standing at the door with bag on, she asked me in a very friendly manner about my reason to stand at the door.

I introduced my self and told that I was the new student of school and was searching a seat, she then introduced me to the whole class and told everyone to help me for my studies and other needs, but there was no response from the students, I was shocked that how can the city people be so rude, they are not even ready to help the new one, after some discussion of teacher and those students, the teacher told me to seat at the first bench for sometime so that she can call the class teacher of the class and inform her.

at first I was happy that atleast this teacher is helping me in all the possible ways and the 1st was not even ready to here. I know it depends on the situation too. now when the class teacher came I got sad and shocked because she was the same teacher who punished me before, but I was ok because the subject teacher was their to help me out. class teacher came to me and started shouting but the other teacher then explained her everything and told her to help me in all possible ways, and after that the class teacher got normal and stopped shouting.

As the class was full there was a single seat on which I can adjust myself, but as I got the admission and the seat was allotted class teacher has to do the needful, she told me to seat on the last bench for some days and after that she will arrange something. without wasting any time I reached the last bench and had a seat with other three students. at first I was not comfortable with anyone seating on the last bench but no one was knowing that this last bench will change the whole meaning of life.

when I sat on the last bench, the three students already on that bench got angry and upset not because they were scholar but they thought I was a scholar and book holic, so to be comfortable I introduced myself to them but received no response so I asked them about their names and other details but still there was no response. after some trials of talking to them I got sure they are ignoring my presence. I was just thinking a trick to talk to the three last bencher I got a paper ball on my head I know who had thrown but I kept quite and continued my work, for some time I thought that all the students are meschevious and it will be fun to study but the problem is that the students were not responding at all.

Anyhow I continued with the learning work as teacher was busy teaching and all the students were busy with their own work. when the lecture got over and teacher went out, all the students started shouting, at first I was not knowing that they were laughing on me, but when I saw some boys who were watching me and laughing, I got scarred i thought there might be something wrong at my side. After sometime when the other teacher came I first asked him some questions.

me: Hello sir! As I am the new student in school, can you please ask any of the student to give the notebooks and other materials to complete my books.

sir: sure I will help you out, but this can be done directly too, then why are you asking me to do!!

me: sir actually I am new and I don't know anyone in school, still I tried my best to ask for the help but, I got no response.

sir: oh! it is really Sad to here this about my students, but still no issues I will help you out.

me: thank you so much sir it is really a kind of you.

after this sir started with his lecture and I went back to my place but when I reached the last bench the other students didn't allowed me to take my place they told me to go on any other bench, I tried to tell them to adjust for a day but they didn't here a single word and pushed me away, I had tears in my eyes but didn't show because my mother had told not to cry in front of anyone.

I took my beg and moved to the other bench I asked some girls to give a small space to adjust myself but no one helped, so to make myself feel stong, I took a long breath and decided to seat on the floor, I took my bag, moved at front and sat on the floor. I didnt disturbed sir as he was busy in teaching and I started to write what sir told us to write. when I was writing from the board, my sir turned to me and asked why was I seating on floor, as I don't want to be like others I told him that the board was not visible from back so I came at front.

sir told me to stand and seat on the first bench, as soon as he said first bench I got happy but when I saw the faces of first benchers my mood got upset and told sir that it was fine to seat on floor.

the teacher continued his work, and all the day I sat on the floor and no one came to tell me that don't seat on floor come with us to sit. I was feeling so embarassing and hurt that if there is one more lecture I would have broken out. the school got over, everyone were moving out of the class looking at me and laughing but yes I could say I had not reacted at all, insted I had given a formal smile to all. I know all the student will think that we had ignored the girl and still she was smiling and I feel proud. I had a cute smile on my face when I felt myself proud, at last I took my bag and leave the class.

while I was leaving the school, I went to meet the class teacher to tell her about the extra bench he she could arrange one for me. I told her that because me others are suffering but she refused and said to adjust with that only. I said ok and left the school, on the way home I was having lots of thoughts in my mind like what was wrong today? why were the students behaved like that? why the teacher scolded? why the teacher rejected my request for an extra bench? I then thought let it be, as it might be the first day, I should wait for some days to get myself comfortable in the class. at the moment I stopped thinking and removed everything from my mind, but we know the human minds, the thing disturbing us will never go out of the mind.

I reached home with a decision to not to remember the time spent in school, but as soon as I entered my house, mom started asking questions about school, Nd the first question she asked was, How was the first day at school?

I told her it was a routine and a common day but she didn't get convinced with my answers because she marked that my answer and facial expressions were very different.
