Part 7

On her way back home Pooja always had the habit of talking to her father about the day's incidents at Verma Coaching Center and she told about how Mr.Ramesh started the new chapter in a new way and about the weird boy in the class.Then in their talk their house came and she quickly got ready and was really excited to go to the first day of Tenth grade. She secured the second position in her class last year and this time she was hell bent on reaching the "Numero Uno position"

As she entered her school-"St. Joseph's Public School." she saw a scene which she saw almost every year- little children hung their faces sadly and went to school which was Lower Kindergarten and the older children were quite happy to go and meet old friends or to make new ones. She saw the notice which showed her room number and as she neared her class which was now Tenth G she could hear a din of voices all talking at once and they made no sense.

As soon as she entered the room a girl quickly ran up to her and took Pooja in a bear hug, Pooja was suddenly taken aback by this but knew who the girl was, it was her best friend Shreya who was good at Public Displays Of Affection and Pooja was not this overly emotional kind of girl, so she pushed Shreya back and just smiled then even she too joined in the chatter with her gang who talked about everything from the use of math classes in summer to foreign trips they made in their holidays. So everyone in the class was busy with their own little world of friends.

Part 12

The next morning Ravi woke up very early and went to the "Library" He went to the library early but it was already open and soon he was sitting on his table again and the next book was " Everything You Need to Know-Teen Edition ." He started reading the book he found the book interesting because in the book he found information about many things he never heard about, the book had information about everything from Pythagoras' Theorem to the scientific name of Blue Whale. Ravi spent hours reading and trying to remember anything and everything he could. Then after reading the book almost till the end he reached a chapter in the book which was called-" Love " and as any other chapter he continued reading the book but this was not a normal chapter, it was very different from the other chapters because it had no formulas, no scientific terms, no nothing but just assumptions and guesses. Ravi did not understand half of what he was reading and he wondered h...

Part 4

“Pooja wake up, time to go to classes”, said a voice trying to wake up the half asleep girl to which the girl replied, “Mom today's the first day of school I don't want to go to Verma coaching institute at least once“ The girl's mother was now annoyed and sternly replied, “I don’t care if it’s your first day of school or not you are not going to miss even one day of coaching classes Pandu” That was it ”Mom don’t call me Pandu I am not 7 year old, I used to like it when I was little but now it’s strange so stop it and ok ok I will get ready soon” She quickly got ready and as usual her father dropped at the Coaching Center. He then said that he would come and pick her up after the classes and went away. Pooja was already late and she was walking fast towards the steps she stopped when she heard the footsteps of someone coming quickly towards her.

Part 22

As the weeks passed, the park whose plan was laid by many engineers was taking shape by the help of students and anyone who was interested in helping. Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons were spent in gardening, digging dirt, planting saplings etc. but Pooja had to make up a lot of stories to come out of her house every week which included everything from " Special Classes At School to Visiting a Sick Friend ". One such Saturday evening while she was working on the Flower Beds near the Entrance Gate, she was working without a care in the world, Ravi came and joined her and they were working so hard that they got mud spots in many places on their faces and then Ravi asked Pooja,"Hey Pooja, how is it that you manage to come twice every week while others want to skip their share of work by giving some reasons." To this Pooja smiled shyly and replied,"Well Ravi the thing is that, I have a lot of childhood memories of playing in this green lot and I didn'...
