" Today onwards everyone has to come here in time" - teacher.

I was chatting with my friends at the corner of the room of our biology sir's home . It was our first tution after the 8 th final exam , for the ninth standard . Different streams and different friends . l was just introducing myself to my new friends.

suddenly...

" May l come in sir ! , sorry my cycle tyre punctured on the way" - .......

Yes! that's the first time, in my entire life l heard my own heart beat raising its peak for just a voice.

It was cold , rough but deep , with a suffocating breath.

l look up with a mysterious look to find the person from whom that voice came

" oh ! , no! no ! don't worry about the first day no problem... sit down, so what l am gonna say ...."- teacher

After hearing his voice l felt a strange warmth in my heart .

l was not in my right mind.. My eyes were just in search of that person... then suddenly our eyes met . He was waiting for a seat, just for a split second My heart stopped. His sparkly ocean-like eyes , full with confidence and rage, deep blue was its colour...it was devouring me in . He had that sweetest smile on his eyes, a sweaty hair blocking his sight. I just froze , at that first glance.

That feeling is indescribable till now .. it was similar to the feeling when you are about to heat hard by a car, you know you are going to die but you are just standing there with a hope that someone will definitely come to save you .

For me ....His entry into my life ..... was a hope for living , on the other side my death inside my heart . Because after that he occupied all of me .

IT may seem abstract but if you ever face something you can understand that feeling.

Don't know how long l stayed in a daze that day but

when l came to sense it was already about the time to go home from tution.. He had already left for his way home .

All that whole time in tuition My eyes were just stuck to him . My mind was completely blank. I don't even know what the teacher said to us at all .

Somehow l came home, ate, then went to school. New class , new students. I was earlier than most of the day to school. I was a little excited . Every time someone entered into the class, my mind and heart was just beating fast like crazy, but after then it was a disappointment , because it was not him .

Then he finally came, from the front door. l was sitting with my head down waiting for him . l was at the first desk from the front door and there were 4 more desks in a row and in total 50 desks .

He was passing through so close to me that his scent of body nearly blocked my breath. A sweet uncommon fragrance . He sat down at the table next to me, and started flipping through the books right away . l hold my breath as much l can but in the end I kept staring at him ever since he entered the class like a shameless pathetic loser . But l was happy. Cause

now l get a chance to look at him properly, he is tall about 6 ft, fair skin tone and he is wearing the white shirt. his hands and ear are red like tomato in heat, he was sweating all over . Hah ! his eyelashes were so long and the nose tip was so sharp. Lips are like raw cherries.

I just cannot!! l want to touch him right now! - that's what came to my mind the very first time.

But ...

" why didn't you wait for me supro ! l am upset!!" - someone jumped into him and gave him a hug ... But the worst thing was he smiled!!

My heart crashed!!!

Next day... it's time for the beginning of the new semester.

Today is the day when everyone has to choose their clubs according to their interest.

As usual, the first three periods went peacefully. It's now off period , so l am drawing the building next to our school. The building is not small or big, a little old but the outlook that gives it beyond a newly built palace.My one and only hobby is to draw and paint... and music. l naturally depends on the sketch but sometimes I use charcoal powder or some oil paint . it will take a little time to finish the sketch!!

-- knock , knock!!

l look up . It's him .. supro...that guy... he was looking straight in my eyes , bending his body towards me , his one hand is placed on my desk and one on the chair l am sitting.

His eyes are deep , Blue like the sea !

- hey!!

l snap out of the daze . Removed my headphones.

- you ! how many times l have to ask you ! sign your name here .!!

He put a paper on my desk. l see ... it's about joining a club. And it is an art club. where he is the president l heard . all though l know even l sign up , l won't be able to help as a member . but l will be close to him don't l ?? even for one or two hours every day !!

-- l don't think her expression is good about this club!! - paro

Yes ! how can I forget this girl , and his happiness ! how funny l am !!

--- ' sorry but l am not interested '

He was stunned. he cringed his grip and closed his eyes. His expression tells me that he looks annoyed. He got up from his posture and picked up the sheet l was drawing. He took a quick look and put down the sheet as it was.. then ....

-(a deep breath) , firstly it's ok if you don't want to join art club . but then say which club you wanna join !"

- 'no club'

he laughed as if he is the one being humiliated, and then asked me with a angry tone . To tell you the truth at this moment his behaviour is is so cute , he is looking very cute and lovely now . My cheeks are burning l can feel it . l think l finally lost it . Again.

but he suddenly begins to say....

- " at first l thought it's better to avoid you too ! cause you at least don't bother with school activities with being all noisy. but when it comes to being like a normal student or person you are far from Joy. keep aside manners! but now you began to irritate me! you know."

- " she thinks that she is too cool that she is beyond our level. now she thinks that this all club and stuff is all nothing " paro is again began to say.

then all other students began to present their opinion.

-'Is this a fish shop!! he suddenly yelled...

it was unexpected of him cause he was the one who started pointing at me .

He looks more annoyed when everyone says those things to me .

he grabbed my hand and pulled me outside the classroom.

l can feel the warmth of his hand over my gloves and the scent coming from the sudden wind . l am crazy right. even in this position. under these circumstances... l am still.... l just ...l am smiling like crazy. His every little movement gives me butterflies.

- ' you ! how shameless you can be ! this is not the first time they are like this ! every day they always keep talking about you ! do you even know ! haah how can you know. all you do is put your headphones and draw that life less buildings.... have you even bothered.... you were smiling at a moment like this ! '

This !! is it a concerned tone!! ....l am done ...

-' why do l even expect it!! from a stone !! with no life !! '

He is heading back ,he released my hand ...l want to say that l will change if you look at me or even just feel my presence unlike all the others...

(stops)

- ' though it's all lifeless... it was still art ... beautiful art. l thought you value... how unexpected!! it's all like you !! emotion and imagination less '

He said as if he had hope ...From me ... why l feel pain in my heart all of a sudden.

my eyes are getting heavy!! is it a tear...no l cannot show.

l rushed to the bathroom.

My tears began to run like crazy after five years.....
