Timothy

" Wake up, Tim. You "ll be late for school." His mum called out.

He was awake, in fact he had been for the last two hours. But today he just didn't want to get out of bed. He was still exhausted from yesterday's basketball practice.

But , if he does not start now, he is sure to get penalty points for being late. So , he got up and opened the window facing the road.

He can see cherry blossom lining up both sides of the road, indicating that spring has arrived. He could never understand why some of his friends made such a big deal of spring. He just didn't get the gist of it. It was just another season.

He doesn't want to go to school today. There is nothing he hates more than living a boring and predictable life. He has been raised in a joint family, where something unpredictable keeps happening.

But, now his own life has turned into a boring scripted movie. There is nothing exciting in school anymore. For , basketball he had to change school, away from his friends.

Every day, he goes to school, sleeps in classes, practices for endless hours after school then passes out after coming home. Tournaments were far away. And he was losing motivation to get out of bed in the morning.

He put all these thoughts in the back of his mind and started getting ready for school.When he was tying his shoelaces, he heard the annoying voice of his cousin," Good Morning Timmy, looking ugly as always ,dear."

His cousin Josh was just six months older than him . So there was no hierarchy. They have always been together since they were toddlers, at home and at school till he changed his.

Although, his presence could be annoying at times, it was nice to have his cousin at school. Josh is fun . So with him everything seems fun. As much as he hated to admit it, but he missed his cousin at school.

, That's why he decided to ignore his provocative morning wish and said," What is it for breakfast today?"

Josh replied," Mum, made a grilled sandwich today."

It was his aunt who prepared meals for everyone at home. His parents owned a restaurant in the industrial area where most of the workers were their customers.So, after waking him up in the morning, his parents were out and about the restaurant till late night. Many days, he isn't even able to see them .

Nevertheless, he loved his folks very much.

"Thanks, aunt. " After quickly gobbling his breakfast, he thanked her aunt and practically ran towards school. He didn't want to get any penalty. He already had bad grades.

When he reached school, he found out that he was early. He underestimated his running speed.

He still didn't want anyone else to sit on his seat in the back of the classroom, so he ran towards it.

But at the corridor, he crashed in somebody making sheets in her hand fall on the ground.

They both sat down at the same time to pick up the sheets. He muttered a quick apology and tried to collect the sheets.

When he had collected them, he tried to hand them to her. During this, he made eye contact with her.

When Timothy made an eye contact with this young lady, he suddenly got the gist of spring, he could now feel spring in the air, his heart started to beat fast , his boring life seemed very exciting and god please excuse his overdramatic ass but why does he feel that he has now got the reason to get out of bed in the morning for several upcoming years.

Because this girl right here was the prettiest girl he had ever seen and if something called love at first sight really exist, he had just experienced it.
