......one of d very funny things i used 2 do is realy unforgettable....aftr d school i used 2 return home wth ma younger brother,shantanu,presently in IIT-R....n ashish bhai n neha di......sumtimes ma car comes 2 take us.....or we jus walk 2 r home...as it was not very far from d school......but ruchi's was quite far.....so she used 2 come by a cab wich was an autoriksha......there was ruchi her sis shalu n 5 other students in d cab.....so many students hav der cabs....so there wer so many autorikshas for d school.....n dey ol move bak 2 bak....2 der destinations aftr d school........so nw cuming out of ol dis nonsense......d point is tht.......daily aftr d school i used 2 walk slowly until her cab surpasses me....so tht i can hav a glimpse of ma sweetheart.....as ol cabs wer of same look.....i used 2 remember her particular cab by a tag wich was behind it.....written "nigahe karam"....thnk god i stil remembr it....i dunno wt does it mean bt ofcourse it was quite helpful.......
............ruchi used 2 sit on d wooden slab wich was der in d cab so tht it can hav more students.....n by dis i was able 2 see her......so wen fer cab passes i jus wave ma hands....n in d reply i get her cuute smile....tht was d daily routine....evn sumtimes i had 2 wait for her cab.....bt i do it....coz i luvd doig it.....
............ol these things bring us more close 2 each othr......in d games period often cricket was played....n i used 2 take ma batting wen i see tht ruchi is wathing d game....else i wait 4 her 2 see it.........n once ruchi is watching......i always tried 2 give ma best perfrmnc.....n u knw it doesnt means lots of run....wat ma aim was..only 4rs n sixers.......n ruchi used 2 cheered evrytime i hit a 4 r six....n dis makes me feel proud of maself......n nw who cares either ma team loses r win....ma target was achieved......
..............one more silly thing....actualy ma school bag has imprinted "ruchi max"..on d top,n sumhow i rubbed d bloddy 'max'........so nw i hav ruchi on ma bag 2....guys der wer villains also in dis story.....a guy named shivkumar was vry jealous of r frndshp....so he urged his elder bro who was in 10th...n also of dada type...to threaten me....so one day his bro came 2 me n held ma collar n started abusing me....realy guys i was fully terrified n wen i asked 4 d reason......he jus said..."quit taking to ruchi".......n u knw guyz i didnt giv a damn 2 ol wt he said....nt coz of any courage etc.....bt merely coz.....ol wt he had ordered for.....could never ever be happend....hw can it is psbl tht ankit jus quit takin 2 ruchi....never!!!!do hell wth dis asshole...
...............

.......so jus in 2 to 3 months i was very close 2 ruchi..i stil remembered d day,wich made me very happy n surprised 2,actualy i had told u earlier tht ruchi was 3rd in d bench,parallel 2 me....nw u wont blv tht ruchi quit tht old place....n she replaced ankita....means tht nw she is jus beside me..i was very happy by ol dis....nw very often wt ruchi used 2 do is tht she jus drop her pen-cap r any pen etc n see towards me n giv a cute smile....replying her wth a bigger smile,wat ma duty was..to give it back 2 ruchi....although quite stupid but tht was her fvrt game....
........ruchi was not as intellignt as i was....in clas 8..hehe!!...so when any teacher mainly of maths one used 2 ask any question 2 ruchi....i quickly started doing tht sum n show her d solution..as she was sitting jus beside me....this use to happen several times in a whole school day..ruchi was very happy by this help....coz many times she was saved by me of getting ny sort of punishment....
........the last period used to be of arts n craft...n ruchi was very poor to this....r art teacher was ms.linda she was very strict....n she used 2 show d best drawing made by any student...to the whole class....wich she used 2 giv as the bloddy homework....her this act was of quite honour..n u knw so many times ma drawing was shown.....ol dis used 2 make me very hapy...not because my drawing was shown 2 the whole class....bt coz aftr ms.linda's praise.....wen i retrnd 2 ma seat....ruchi ,as she was jus beside me....always used 2 say me......"ankit jus pass your drawing sheet to me as i want 2 compare tht wth mine".....i always got ovrwhelmd wth this....sumtimes i actualy used to wait....for wen wil she ask for ma sheet....nw guys here very honestly i want 2 confess tht ol tht drawing for wich i was applauded was actualy made by a girl named neha didi(sister)...who was in ma neighbourhood....not by me....n in real my drawing was n is pathetic...bt i used 2 do ol dis jus for ruchi....coz i knw tht if ma drwing was praised...ruchi wil defintly ask me 4 ma sheet....n i l get a brand new reason 4..10 to 15 mins conversation betwen me n ruchi...

...........................

...............on d next day of r school....the girl abt whom pramod sir had told us was der on d bench wich was just parallel to tht of mine.usually three students wer allowed to sit on a bench.so on d parallel bench der was ankita jus beside me,on her bench den madhuri n den ofcourse ruchi.i saw her n recalled ol wht d teacher said abt her....bt realy guys although she was very pretty yet i was'nt attracted at ol..mayb i was 2 childish at tht tym,evn i was unaware of ol dis love etc....... i was quite normal aftr seeing her.then round abt 20 days wer gone lik dis only..and one day r class teacher announced tht r class need 2 class monitors,one frm boys n another frm girls....n for electing them there will be proper voting.
.......n the students only,will select 3 eligible candidates each frm boys n gal.. of there wish....ofcourse my name was popped....as i was very friendly with ol boyz..n gals liked me as well....very easily wth a large margin i was elected among boys,n ruchi...
only coz she was pretty was elected too.
n u know only due 2 ol this we both wer interacted....actualy among boys very few wer gud at studies n looks 2....i was amng them.what i started seeing tht ruchi only used to talk with me only or jus wth gals....many students were jealous frm ol this.but
realy guys i was unaffected til then....although often we both share a vry gud tym together..i was then quite funny also..n often she use 2 laugh at me due 2 sum of ma childish deeds....there was a guy named ravi in r clas..realy guys he had a very bad complexion....n we used 2 entitle im wth adjects lyk "koyla (coal),black cobra bla bla....n ravi had abused me several times 4 ol this..coz ol des title was awarded by me n honed by ol students....wenevr i say koyla etc 2 him ruchi..used 2 jus laugh n laugh..n ofcourse ravi was miffed by dis.aftr 1 month of being as montiors i was very close 2 ruchi..n we became very gud frnds also....n gradually i was quite intimated wth her....
................frm this tym i was unable 2 understand tht wht has happened 2 me....words lik love etc wer totaly unknwn 4 me....watevr it is....nw i was very mch attracted towards her....n she 2.except me there was hardly any boy 2 whom she had even talked.
stil i had remembered r rehearsal for d upcoming annual function day in wich me n ruchi was selected 2 perform in a bhangra dance by d teachers n fortunately she was ma partner in d dance..i was very much excited aftr dis selection....

............very soon the whole clas was awared of r bosom frndship....so many gals n guys were jealsous of this..ya its true....among them there wer boys who wants ruchi as a frnd n gals who didnt want me 2 be such close 2 ruchi....so far from ol this shit....
r frndshp was bcoming deeper day by day.
.............n u knw guys nw tht childish ankit has been totaly transformed....i startd learning jokes wich on d next day i could present bfore ruchi....so tht i can put a big smileys on her face....watevr might had happened 2 me....i was very happy n ruchi 2 find a close frnd in me.

wen they wer students of class 8.
