Broken hearts

______________

RIYA's POV

"Finally, guys, this was my last day in this school. I'll miss you all. We spent nice time together and I'm leaving with such an amazing collection of memories with you all. So..umm..goodbye, everyone."

OS said, as the school bell rang and everyone took their school bags. I gave him the nick name OS which stands for Over Smart, long back. I used to tease him with this name. Aww I'm missing those days. His real name was Sid.

He was leaning on the teacher's chair and staring at almost nothing.

I could not stand that, I was feeling numb. Everything was getting blur as my eyes were becoming glossy. I took my bag and rushed out of the classroom, without even saying a goodbye to him.

I loved him and still loves him. I just want him to come back.

He was admissioned in our school almost two year before his departure. We had fun together. Once we threw a farewell party to our maths teacher in eighth standard. She was so freaking happy and emotional. We brought snacks for all the staff and our class. We bought her presents too. It was because of him, we did this all. She was his favorite teacher.

We were tough competition for each other in the class. He always wanted to be an astronaut. I do appreciate that. He has big dreams. And I want him to acheive them all. I want him to become an astronaut.

I was never sure that he liked me back. Once my friend Jiya told me that she thinks he likes me she didn't that I loved him. I was so happy that I hugged her in between the english class, in excitement.

That was awkward !

He was the one who occupied most of my dreams. Once I saw in my dream, that we were uprooting the weeds in the playground of our school as a punishment of getting school late. And he came to me and we began talking and uprooting the grass together.

Dreams are weird. Agree?

I constantly dreamt about him. But he left. His dad got transfered somewhere. I didn't have his contact number or whatsapp number. He was ambitious and nerdy. And so I could never find him on any social media. But I searched a lot. I was all broken. I would sob every night on my bed, before sleeping and hug my pillows and talk with them. This happened for months.

After a year

"They must have eaten all the fried stuffs" I murmured to myself becoming red in anger. It was raining softly.

I'm very serious about my food. I just love to stuff my mouth with food. When I was a child I demanded my dad to buy me a house made up of donuts. This is the thing he reminds me many times, and laughs like anything. Sweet memories.

I was hurried to reach home from my tution classes, when I saw a guy on bike.

A guy in the rain, just imagine!!!

He was so damn cute. He was something more than cute. I didn't knew who he was. I was observing him from tip to toe. Everything went in slow motion. Then I saw that he was looking back at me. Then I rolled my eyes to look somewhere else. He then left. I resumed thinking about snacks, which mom's gotta cook that day.

Few days later

I saw him again, he was on his bike and wore a yellow T-shirt with blue sunglasses. I kept on staring him. Since, he had his sunglasses on, I could not see his eyes, but only his face. I was exiting my school with Vaish and our bicycles, from the bicycle stand of school. The street was about four feets away, not so far that he couldn't have noticed me staring at him. Everything tends to be in slow motion, whenever I see him. I was unable to move my eyes from him. His face has something I had never seen in anyone's face. I was hoping that he was staring back from his glasses. I was melting and I would have been liquidified if Vaish had not intrupted.

"Shinoy" she said.

Back into reallity!!

How stupid I would be looking like, staring so strongly at a boy in public. I rolled my eyes as I realised.

"Sh..what? Is that his name? I didn't heard it clearly". He was gone.

"I don't know, maybe, leave it, bye" she smirked at me and left.

I think she herself was confused whom I was staring at. It's really annoying when someone says something and you don't get to hear it properly and when you ask to repeat he or she changes the topic or ends that one.

Curiosity suck!

Any ways, I forgot what she said and followed the way back to home.
