Present time:

Now I know that my college life is going to be a roller coaster. When I shifted my eyes in his direction, my eyes got locked with his. His bright blue eyes had turned dull like something was missing and I don't know what. His eyes held a whirlwind of emotions making the world around me stop and be mesmerised. The main emotion of being shocked but he regained consciousness soon after.

I saw a tiny of tint of joy in his eyes for a split second which changed to cold hearted one. It showed anger. He then turned himself to the people crowding him and then continued talking with the others again.

Somebody suddenly placed a hand on my shoulder and I shrieked completely surprised. I turned to look at who it was. And I hugged him as soon as I saw him. It was Vikram. My best friend whom I've always considered as my brother. Well, he has no siblings in reality and my relationship with him is quite similar to a brother- sister relationship. I was too happy that he took admission here as well. He gave me a bear hug as well with his rather tall, muscular arms. He had dark green eyes, pinched nose and pearly teeth which were gladly on showcase since the time he saw me. At least my life will be bearable I suppose. I was once again engulfed by my train of thoughts when a sudden voice interrupted.

"Have you tried talking to him?" someone questioned me from the side and I turned to find my best friend Pari who was always the one who could understand me but her question caught me off guard. She was caressing the dreadlocks in her naturally silky brown hair having dark black eyes which were always full of concern.

I replied sadly,"No. I'm not ready yet." I shook my head in despair seemingly unhappy with the whole set of problems engulfing my head as soon as I saw him

She started with her advice like always, "At least try to talk to him. I am sure you love him and he loves you as well till today."

I was shocked was an understatement "How do you know that I love him?"

"I am just too good to know how my best friend is" she shrugged carelessly as if knowing it was nothing.

"I don't know" I murmured.

"Let's check our timetable" saying this she caught mine and Vikram's hand making us run along with her. Vikram was also a very good friend to her, like a brother. Because his eyes were set on someone else...

Really, Pari has much more force than compared to her slender body and an overactive mind is what I realised while she dragged us to school.

We took out our timetable and checking our classes. We had assembly out in the open for the time being so we rushed there together. We stood there and heard the boring speech of the principal. It definitely reminded me of my old school. Then it was time for my first lecture and none of the two had the same one. I was even more nervous after knowing this.
