A Crazy Little Thing Called Love

We became very good friends, actually True friend. I taught her maths, rubix cube and table tennis. She used to hit sixer with the ping pong ball, she make faces when she did things in wrong way and that's was always cute for me. She loves rain and wind. She said that the rain and the wind makes her both happy and sad. We used to talk everyday, in the classroom, mess, everywhere.

We used to play 'Boss' game where I acted as a boss and she acted as my personal assistant. We both narrate dialogues on our own and we both laugh for minimum five minutes and maximum no limits. Never thought I would laugh like this, never thought you would be my true friend, never thought you would be my life, never thought I would fall in love with someone who is directly opposite to me. "Opposite attracts! I'm falling in love with you, Salang" I said to myself but I really wanted to tell her.

One day I said "Salang, I love you!"

She shocked. I then realized that it's not the right time.

"Not that one, it's friendship one!" I said.

She smiled and said "I love you too! Not that one, friends one!"

I smiled and was so happy inside but couldn't react at that moment.

In the month of November, I was selected from the school to take part in maths Olympiad. For this I have go outside the school for six days. I was sad that I won't be able to see her. At the time when I was about to leave. She came to me and she gave me a notebook.

She said "It's my rough notebook, you can practice here. Won't you give me a good bye hug?"

I used to hate hugs, kisses, closeness. I was feeling shy to hug her directly. So I said "Can I hug you side by side?"

She smiled and gave me a hug. Her eyes wanted to say something to me but she spoke nothing. I waved my hands with sorrow. "I'll be back, please be fine, I love you, friendship one and.....that one too." I said on my mind.

During the journey I missed her a lot. Her deep meaningful eyes came to mind whenever I closed my eyes. A junior of mine who was also selected for the exam took my bag and began to look at the notebook she gave to me. He asked me about the notebook. "Is this your notebook, or someone has given it to you?"

"Why are you asking this?" I asked.

"Actually here a note of someone, I don't know whose but I think it's for you!" He replied.

The note says -

"Before practicing in copy

Have a safe and happy journey and

'All the Best'

My best wishes are always with you so you'll have a great day and exam..

It's better not to write long, you might

throw this away.

Gud bye

sleep okay! Don't worry! I'll also pray for

you.

Stay well, Miss me too, don't forget me."

"You'll never know, whatever you given me or will give me, I'll let them immortal. I'll never throw them away." I promised to myself.

I was so happy, so so so happy. I felt like I got wings and was flying in the sky.

After six days, we were heading back to our school, when I first came in that school I never thought that someday I will feel restless and eagerly want to come in this place. The only reason is Salang. My First love.

When I returned to the school, I saw her and was very happy to see her again. She came near me and said "Do you know what! I really missed you."

I smiled. l feel butterfly in my stomach. I was blushing, really blushing. I don't know how she became a part of my life, no she is my life, my everything. That day I promised to myself that I'll care for her, understands her, love her and makes her smile forever. I didn't know what she feels about me but I know, one day, for sure she will understand my love and also love me like I do.

She had an headache and wasn't feeling well. I told her to rest, she went to medical room. I was so worried so I frequently asked her friends about her. They told me she was fine but I wanted to see her with my own eyes, if she is fine or not.

At night time, when everyone was sleeping I went to girls dormitory. I knew that if I get caught I shall end up with suspension, but the only thing I care was about her.

I went to her room and silently lie down on her bed. Her head was so warm, I put wet towel on her head and after few minutes when her temperature became normal I put the towel down and I massage gently on her head and she went to sleep.

Some of the girls were not asleep but they didn't notice me coming in. Few hours later, there were silence everywhere. The second hand of clock, drop of water and wind makes me frighten. I was yawning and wanted to sleep. You remember I was the one who don't compromise anything with sleep, right! But at that time, I enjoyed every seconds with her. She was sleeping peacefully in my arms, I gently massaged her forehead. I didn't wanted to waste these memorable moments by sleeping, so I woke up all night massaging her head and prayed to God to make her feel better. Early in the morning, I wrote a note and placed it on her bed under her pillow and I went back to my dorm.

At the school hours, she came to me and asked me "Did you came yesterday?"

I said "Yes!"

She then said "Why? What if someone saw you?"

I said "I wanted to confirm if you were fine or not."

"Please don't do that again, okay!" She commands "You are save coz we don't have any CCTV and no one saw you but please don't do this anymore."

"Yes, boss!" I said.

She then said "You are the boss, remember?" raising one eyebrow.

"Oh yeah, how would I don't remember it?" I said with fear.

From the next day, we had our winter vacation. Again I feel so sad, I wrote some peoms and gave it to her. We shared good bye smile and went our ways.

Jack's mom asked "What's next? Why you always stop when the story becomes more interesting?"

"My mouth is hurting, let's take a break for ten minutes." Jack said.

"You both are so cute, cuttest couple for me" I said.

"Then let's have a tea break." Her mom said.
