Part 3

"One more boring day in my boring life.",thought Chris brushing his flowing golden hair from his face and continuing the work of chopping wood with an axe he himself made with a sharp flint and a piece of wood. After toiling all morning by chopping wood for that night's dinner he decided to take some rest and went near the river that was flowing near the place where he was cutting wood. He was washing his face with the cool refreshing water when he saw something he had never seen before - a limp lifeless body of a beautiful girl was flowing along with the water rapidly. Without thinking for another moment he pulled out the girl's body when she was just near him. Chris got the girl out of water and then kept her body down and started pressing her stomach region hoping that she would just wake up. After many unsuccessful trials, the girl suddenly coughed out some water and started breathing again heavily but she was not in her consciousness. She had fainted again but at least she was breathing. Chris was happy with his find of the day and took the girl home and laid her on what he considered as bed which was nothing but few logs put together over which soft tender leaves were carefully arranged.

Anna suddenly woke up as she had got all the day's events as a nightmare and when she woke up she saw a handsome youth with messy golden hair staring down at her, after a brief moment Anna gave out a loud scream and that youth was taken aback by her behavior, Anna tried to get up from the bed and run away from the place but she couldn't move and when she saw down at her leg, she found it heavily bandaged by leaves and twigs and it was impossible for her to move it. The guy understood what she trying to do and said,"Don't try so hard, your leg is sprained and it will take some time for it to heal, so better don't move it much" The girl then felt her helplessness and did only one thing she could do at that time - started crying bitterly. The boy went near her and said,"Hey don't cry, feel happy that I found you and that you are still alive. Anyway my name is Chris." The girl also felt happy that she was alive but the thought of her parents reminded her more of the day's events and made her cry more. Then after sometime when Anna could gain control of herself She said to Chris,"My name is Anna Wilkinson and I fell down from the waterfall." and everything about her and her family. Chris after listening to her story was bewildered - She fell down from a waterfall and she was still in talking condition, Gods must be existing. Then to comfort Anna he said to her,"Your family must now be looking for you everywhere. Which was true as Mr. and Mrs.Wilkinson along with Vijay and many others were really looking for everywhere since evening but now it had become really dark and nothing much was visible so they all returned back empty handed but more determined to find her the next morning.

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'...
