The first love .

First day of college: 22nd August 2022, 8:00 Am at Rishikesh.

“Pihuuu ... Wake up darling otherwise you'll be late on your first day of college ” shouted Pihu's Mother.

“Good morning Mummy and Papa ” said Pihu coming from the stairs.

“ Ohh look at my baby all dolled up , and someone was saying that she is going to be late? ” said Pihu's Father chuckling.

“Oh come on Shaurya I was just worried about her not being late on this special day, nvm Pihu come here and have your breakfast ” said Pihu's Mother while placing her plate.

“ Mummy, Papa did you forget I don't like to eat alone! ” said Pihu in a childish tone.

“Alas , coming babygirl ” said Pihu's father while putting the newspaper down on the table.

“Fine let's start what's for breakfast let me see mm..

wow!? Aloo Puri my favourite, I love you mummy yumm” said Pihu delightingly .

After breakfast she left the house saying good bye to her mother and father to the bus stop.

At the bus stop she waited for her bus and suddenly felt cramps on her stomach. When she stood up from that bench she looked at her skirt as it was stained all over . She was so scared and suddenly ran behind the bus stop and sat down while covering her face.

“What's wrong?” an unknown boy asked her.

As she looked up her tears stared to fall down. She started crying with an expression of being scared.

“Hey don't cry , did I do something to make you cry ? If so I'm sorry please don't cry.” he convinced her and gave her his handkerchief.

“I j-just got my period and ... and the stain is all over my skirt . I don't even have any sanitary pad with me and also my bus will be arriving soon. I don't know what to do.” she said while crying.

“Ohh , that's the problem.” saying this he ran somewhere.

She thought he left her and started crying again. After 10 mins he arrived again with a bag. She looked up.

“Here you go .” he said gently.

Inside that bag there was a packet of sanitary pad with a new skirt of the same color as she was wearing and with chocolate. She took that bag and went inside the public washroom that was in the back side of the bus stop.

“ Thankyou mister..? He is gone, as expected. ” she said disappointedly .

The bus arrived, Pihu took the bus.

She reached her destination, Malhotra's University (since 1960) .

“Hello , welcome to the university. I'm Manoj professionally a security guard but you can address me as your big brother as well.” said Manoj Kumar.

“Thank you so much M**anoj da from now on we will be under your care then**” she was the only one to reply to Manoj Kumar.

The whole crowd was seeing her as an outcast that made her anxious then suddenly a voice came from behind.

“Yes you are right we are so glad that our security guard is you Manoj da!”

She turned back, and look who it was? The same boy from the bus stand. They both started smiling towards each other as a sense of connection started into them.

After that the whole crowd disappeared as it wasn't there from the beginning.

“Hey. What's up?” said Vasu.

“Nothing much , i was just going to attend my class. And mm...Thank you” she said gently with a little smile on her face.

“Why are you thanking me?” he asked in a doubting tone.

“For what you did earlier in the bus stop, if it weren't you i would be able to make it up to college today”

“ Hey chill it's not something big anyone else would also do in that situation. It's called humanity!” he chuckled.

“ But still . Please tell me the total amount of money in that bag and the things in it. I don't have cash right now if you wouldn't mind if I can transfer online?” she said in a hurry.

“ Hey no!! I don't-” as he said she interrupted.

“ Okay I'll ask someone for cash” she started walking towards the guard's room.

“Manoj da-” as she said he pulled her hand.

And as a fragile girl as Pihu she fell upon Vasu's chest she looked up and suddenly pushed him back.

“ I-I mean I didn't help y-you for money why aren't you listening to me?” Vasu said hesitatingly.

“Oo-ohh I'm sorry but please i don't like to keep anyone's favor for long so.. ” she said nervously.

“ If you're so concentrated on repaying that how about you buy me lunch!? If you don't mind so..?”

“Why not? Today will be good then, meet at the cafeteria at recess. ” she said with a bright smile.

“ Okay I'll be waiting till then bye” Vasu said.

“ Byeee...” she left for her class saying this.
