I remember the first day I set foot into school! Wailing and bawling, at the very thought of being away from my mother for ONE WHOLE DAY, I reluctantly stepped into the class. I was warmly welcomed by my class teacher who allotted me a seat and got back to her work. Sniffing and wiping away my tears.. I turned towards my left only to find myself staring into a pair of hazel-colored eyes. They belonged to a fair,equally-chubby and (initially) shy girl named Bhoomika Ghosh.
We started off saying a coy “hie” to each other.. and would you believe it, by the end of the day we were busy comparing and contesting on “who’s braids were the longest!” :-P
Over the years(from 2nd to 4th std) we were shuffled, re-shuffled and put in different sections. But we still managed to keep in touch through the phone, talking after classes and eating lunch together!
As u would have probably guessed, We were the naughtiest of the lot! Teachers used to ask us whether we were sisters, because we bonded like them! We used to deny that we were related in any way but telepathically used to agree on the ‘bonding’ part! J
One day, Bhoomika and I had a really big fight over some trivial reason. Mind you! It was a really really REALLY big fight and that was the last time we spoke to each other! We stopped talking to each other and either used to walk out of the class if the other was present. (Talk about ego! :P)
Though I wanted to reconnect with her in school.. I never got the chance to (maybe it was still the ego :P). Two years down the line, Bhoomika left school and went away to Bombay
So.. more than for bhoomika, this is for Facebook!! :D :D
Honestly, what would I ever do without you?! :’) :*
