The Middle Class Me...

My family is just like any other middle-class family. Every morning begins with laughter and scolding on other parts. My brother and I are getting late for school. On the other hand, my hair is untied and wailing on the top of my voice to tie my hair and my mother on other hand being busy in the kitchen packing up for both of us. And in between out of nowhere my brother pulls my hair and makes me cry in the early morning and my father scolds him for doing this kind of activity, but he is busy teasing me and making me mad in the early morning and I am wailing on the top of my voice as well as stamping the floor in anger with my angry and irritated face. After sorting out the matter my mother screams from the kitchen to take our lunch. And now both of us are ready to leave for school. Both of us left the house in a hurry and reached the school on time. And in school after meeting up with my friends I meet my best buddy who is behaving in a weird manner nowadays. So I decided to keep an eye on my friend and know what the matter is but before I could do something I got ill and on an urgent basis needed to leave for home. But before leaving I asked my buddy about what had happened to him but he remained mum and didn't speak a word either. 


So I didn't have any other option except to leave for home. After reaching home my fever went up very high. So I have to rest completely for the whole day, and I have seen my mother worry about me a lot. But the next day as soon as I reached my school a secret was waiting for me but I was unaware of the fact that from today onwards my life is gonna change completely. I did the same after reaching the school, but no one told me what happened yesterday. And unknowingly I. Asked my buddy about it but he didn't even tell me anything and I told him everything that happened yesterday and both of us laughed and giggled but something was different and I could sense that but didn't get what was. Going on and why everyone was staring at me like an alien eye... Later on, my teacher told that yesterday after I had left for my home during her lecture my buddy was scribbling something under his table, so she asked him what was it but he doesn't speak a word so she snatched the letter he was writing under his table and what she told after that left me shocked and confused, it was a"love letter" for me which he later confessed to me that he liked me more than a best friend. Later on, these talks reached my house and being from. A middle-class family my family got me out of that school and I didn't saw him. For years but after 10 years we met in a new school where I got admission due to my dad's job. And before I could confess anything his girlfriend came running from. The corridors and hugged him from back and I left the place once again before confessing anything and now he is my co-worker and both of us are married and happy but still hesitate to pick that closed chapter to reopen again.
