Just crush? – Sindhuja

While many unknown eyes traveling on me I walk as if I own the world. I stop and take my phone, scrolling down the messages. I click the one titled IRCTC. I read the coach number and search its position on the information board. ‘Mmm! It’s 8th’, I note it.

I can hear some noise. Offo! My stomach! It’s hungry. With those tired black orbs of mine I pierce through the crowd to spot a food shop. My fortunate or unfortunate, I find a snack shop. Just for a day, I won’t get that much weight. I buy a chips pocket and a water bottle.

I settle myself on a bench with crossed leg and start to much the chips. At last, the day has arrived. Four years over. late night preparation, exam fear, group studies, everything is over. I take a deep breath and release it slowly. When I first entered this city, I was so anxious, scared to talk to people. Now, it changed. I have changed.

Will he also look like this in his old days? , I think seeing an old bald man. His thought itself is making my heart flutter. I giggle which gradually turns into a wide smile showing a dimple on my right cheek.
