Struggle for life of an innocent girl

Chapter five

in my previous school I was not interested in going school but here in my school it became my necessity to go school daily and have fun. The one thing that I learned here from my classmates was unity... we were always there for each other. Our class boys protect us like they are here for only these things...that is...to protect us. On the other hand my best friend had a over possessive boyfriend and I have became there peacemaker. Yes....everytime they fight it was my responsibility to create peace between them. Her boyfiend Nikhil Fernandes was the bad boy of the school and the troublemaker. I didn't liked him first. but I don't know why he respects me so much. he never used to say no to me if I ask something from him. we used come back home back home together in van and shivani used to go home by bus, there we have to depart from each other. but we contact each other on phone calls after school. Shivani I became best of best friends and because of that I unintentionally ignore my another best friend Vibha. She never complained to me about that but I had saw a sadness in her eyes whenever we ignored her and were busy in our own world. I loved her also but I was not good at showing my emotions. She will understand me I know that. time was flying fast and so our one year of school was also coming to an end and our lives are started getting changed. Nikhil started showing interest in me, at first I ignored it but as the time flew I can see he wanted to come more closer to me which I have not accepted at first. At one day Shivani and Nikhil got into a big fight. I was trying hard to make peace between them but Shivani was not accepting his apologies so he also decided to become ignorant, I don't know what to do more for them. We were having our annual function that day and they fought again. I decided to talk to Nikhil personally when he dropped the bomb on me that he started having feelings for me. I was dumb and can't react for a while and without saying anything I turned back and left.
