'Do you need any help?'

he asked while sitting down on the chair.

'No, just wanna hang with you'

'What about visiting the park?'

'Ya, That's a great idea!' I exclaimed.


2 years ago at school. It was the English period. I was busy creating the summary of the poem, 'Father Returning Home ' by Dilip Purushottam Chitre.

'What are you doing, Mayank?' - Miss Kalpana asked me.

'Writing the summary, Ma'am'.

'Good, Continue'


Soon the bell rang. It was lunch period. I got my lunch box from my bag and went downstairs to the field along with everyone. Being an introvert, I never had friends. Luckily, many classmates supported me and the best one was Saksham. He was few inches bigger than me. He has black eyes, a thin body and a hairstyle that was curled better. I was eating my lunch standing there.

'Hello! Good Morning ' a voice came from the back. I turned around and saw a stranger right there. A person with black eyes, almost the same height and a beautiful smile stood there. Maybe he was new to school because I had never seen him before. I didn't reply to him but instead just plastered a fake smile on my face. The bell rang. I left the ground and walked towards my class. He might be messing up with me just as others do. Because nobody calls me or addresses me except my teachers.


The next day, I came out of the school bus and moved towards my class. Dropped my bag and went for the assembly. It was a sunny day. Everyone was talking with someone for sure. I was standing there alone staring at the stage.

'Good Morning' a similar voice reached my ears. 

I turned to see and it was that stranger again. But this time, I didn't remain quiet.

'Good Morning!' I wished him

Before we could talk some more, the captain ordered us to line up. The whole day I was thinking of him. Maybe, he was not messing up with me.


On the next Saturday, the last two periods were free for us. I was called by Miss Kalpana with few more members. We went to "7 B", the class right beside us. After reaching there we came to know that she was having a class now. We stood there, roamed there and sometimes I sat at the table. I glanced over at the class. O! There he is sitting. I kept looking at him for what activities he was doing. Whenever he looked at me, I used to turn my face. But he noticed me looking at him.

'Come here, please.' he said.

I went to his seat and sat beside him. Truly, I was quite nervous and it seemed weird too for me. We talked a lot and gossiped for a long time. The bell rang and Miss Kalpana came. We did the works as she was guiding us. And yes, I got to know his name - "Anurag". And thus an expected story of an unexpected friendship began..
