The Difference between US

  

       It was break time when she was sitting on the bench in the garden of school.Having her breakfast all alone talking to her introvert nature.No one knew if she existed as she was one in her own creative world not desiring to be a social butterfly.She got up as the break was over,but than he came and sat on that same bench and she resisted to move so she sat.Her heart beats went faster looking his face.Her fingers started to play with each other when her nerves gave the signal of his presence.Her leg started dancing with their own secret move where his legs were calm and stabled.After he was in her thoughts from last 4 years.Exactly in third year of school she added him in her good books and thus the good book converted into a secret diary. She said to her introvert nature 
"Shall I ask him his name?"
Her introvert nature replied
"Are you mad?You think he would reply you? and anyways you know much more about him than yourself than why do you want to ask him?" 
She went silent.Trying to be calm stopping her legs to dance and fingers to play she couldn't allow her heart beats to slow down.
         He saw her and she turned her face.He didn't knew her,but she knew everything about him and he didn't knew that.Unknown with her identity he asked 
"Excuse me?"
Her nerves gave goose bumps,but she didn't said anything
"Excuse me?"
He said again
"I need to turn my face"
She said to her introvert nature 
"Your wish,but you know he doesn't knows you" 
Fighting with her nature she turned her face and said in a cracked tone 
"Yes?"
She said trying to bring some confidence
"Can I have that bottle of water?"
He asked
She went blank as his lines didn't went in her ears, but his voice got stuck in her mind and she kept looking at him 
"Can I have that bottle of water?"
He repeated and she came out of the fictional chat she had started with her mind giving his description as if she was his only biggest fan 
"Yes!yes!Sure you can"
She said giving him her bottle and a current went from head to toe when his hands touched her fingers. 
"Thank you!"
He said being sweet from one side and her beats increased their speed from the other side. 
"No problem"
She answered and her introvert nature started speaking 
"You know he is known in the school and every second girl likes him and he doesn't even knows you also the difference is huge between you two than why the hell are you putting your imagination when they can't be real?" 
She answered trying to prove her nature wrong 
"I know he will not be my friend,but at least I can be his friend"
Her introvert nature didn't reverted 
"What if I give a try?" 
She asked
"Knowing the fact if you still want to give a try than go for it,but I won't allow you"
This time she went silent and was not able to revert to her introvert nature
"What's your name?"
She asked him in a slow tone and it was the toughest thing she could ever do in her entire life being the most "Silent Girl" in school
"What?"
He replied not hearing her voice
"Can i know you name?"
Despite of knowing everything about him she asked him just hoping to have a conversation 
"I am David"
He answered 
"David D'Costa"
She answered herself 
"Ok"
She replied to him
"And your name?"
He asked expecting her to answer 
"I am Lilly"
She answered in sweet voice 
"Nice name! I must say"
He said trying to know about her 
"Thank you" 
She reverted in a calm and soft voice.
"This won't work" 
Again her nature interrupted
"I know" 
She said being as mature as she could.        
      The more she was calm from out the higher mountains she was climbing from inside.It was the biggest day of her life and only she knew about it. Her fingers and legs stopped,but her heart was not the one which listened her.It was still beating as fast as it did when she saw him for the first time.Sitting inches away on a same bench she had a talk which was a dream come true with the most important person in her life......Her Class Teacher.

         That other night. Again. Same. Like always. My eyes refused to shut for rest. I am too tired of this happening every-freaking-day. I am really crying to shut my eyes off reality. Gosh!. My 10th boards results would be out in the open tomorrow. Earlier during my exams my lips were just making their way on a single tag saying "My papers are going well" , but now I can feel something which was unintelligible. My mom had already filled her book of expectations so I couldn't dare to share my words with her. I thought about speaking to dad, but then I saw his prostrate face and my mood transposed. I finally had no other choice but to camouflage those fighting to transpire my words filled with mixed emotions           I was already up in morning with the hassle fixing my eyes on that screen which was constantly railroading me. In a very short period of time my results were going to decide my entire future. Mom was all up with a...

Unsilled India

       Think of it or not, it is going to be a constant muddle in your path. We all are into a not wanting but still existing cavern where in everyone knows what is happening around and out of that every only one tries to change its structure. Every individual today somewhere witnessed a message of change, unfortunately only few became a part of it and rest were just into the “let it go” formula. People say there is no use to bring a change. This will only exist till some scanty days. After that everyone will move with a snub reaction. However, if this had been a constant result then the graph would have never shown any improvements which it did.          If you throw garbage in open there are 98% chances people will ignore that, but if the same was done in their own house there are 100% chances of a strict action taken against you. Consequences are still neglected of the “let it go” formula because of which after reaching the peak p...

I finally pooped

Image
It was 1:30am after a grueling Day 3 on the Inca trail. I haven't pooped since day 1. I had hoped to hold it until we returned to the hotel the following night. But I knew when I crawled into my bag that this night might have other plans. It was such a strange mixture of feelings. On the one hand, there was almost an inevitability that pooping would happen this night. I was afraid if I stayed in the tent there might be an extremely embarrassing situation. On the other hand, I was freezing and I didn't want to leave the tent. I didn't want to wake up my travel companion. I was afraid that the poop might be a messy affair, and just maybe I could hold it for another day. After hours of tossing and turning, I decided I must get up. I put my freezing FiveFingers on my already freezing feet. Upon exiting the tent, I'm greeted by the most haunting, beautiful gift of a vista. It was a clear night, the first since we had started hiking. Machu Picchu Mountain was visible...

Lost gray

Image
His cloths were the same, but he appeared out of place. He blended in with the people who once had him in a cage, exploiting his differences. They acknowledged him as Gray. Some days he appeared in charge of his life and other days he felt helpless. Gray longed for the day he would be reunited with his home and people who looked like him. For years Gray held on to the memories of home since crash-landing on planet Earth. With every piece of freedom he received, the image of home grew faint. When he looked in the mirror, he didn’t recognize home anymore. Every time a piece of himself seeped through his mask, his attention diverted, swept away from the truth. His mother told him many stories of a land that existed, filled with mental diseases called Earth. A thirst that could never be satisfied ran through the veins of people there like blood. There breathed greed, power, vanity, currency, and jealously. She never told him where the cure for these diseases rested. She only sa...

Be genial about genitals

     It's my "full day bed time"  and I am told be quiet not to be very extrovert on this topic. Little did they knew that every friend of mine was my personal doctor at that time. My teachers thought me on an ideal moment that it's all authentic so you don't need to be shy and  "Hey!! If you need anything? Just let me know dear"   her pampering nature said. I came home and told my mom about everything I was been thought that day in my school. She responded with a smile saying "Oh!! Guess my daughter is getting more mature in big ways" . My skirt turned red that day in the middle of lectures and I was all embarrassed, but then my friend sitting besides me gave me his hoody asking "Do you need a pad?"  deriving my awkwardness away from his words as if there was nothing to be felt shame of. I was thinking about them who told me to be tranquil regarding periods, but then came my dad asking me "Do you need some chocolates?"...
