Riya woke up and saw Regi getting ready early in the morning ?, Riya asked her in a sleepy voice" Where are you going this early morning?", Regi said, "I should probably get angry with you for forgetting everything that I told you yesterday!!", Riya woke up suddenly from bed and asked her ''what have I forgotten, I'm sorry pa, really I don't remember anything, as I'm deeply busy on that show!!"
"OK, leave it, Get ready, Today our college is conducting a psychology camp, in association with "synced soul" trust, this camp is mainly to improve awareness about mental health and as we are a member of "Rotary Club of Mental health and illness" we should be there soon, come on!!, Said Regina and called Sachin to ask him where he is right now!!
The three, reached their college auditorium where the camp was going to be held
They rechecked everything and at 10 a.m. the camp started
The Rotary Mental Health and Wellness Camp began with an atmosphere of anticipation. The auditorium was filled with students, faculty, and volunteers who were enthusiastic about spreading awareness about mental health. The event was organized in collaboration with the "Synced Soul" trust, aiming to educate and promote mental well-being among individuals.
The event started with an opening speech by the college principal, highlighting the importance of addressing mental health issues and breaking the shame associated with them. The attendees were then introduced to the various sessions and activities planned for the day.
An expert in the field of psychology was invited to deliver a keynote address. The speaker emphasized the significance of mental health, discussed common misconceptions, and provided insights into maintaining a healthy mindset. The speech aimed to inspire and educate the audience about the relevance of mental well-being in today's addiction world.
The camp offered several interactive workshops focusing on stress management, mindfulness, and coping strategies. These workshops engaged participants in group discussions, activities, and practical exercises to help them understand and manage their mental health
Everyone's favourite session in this camp is the art session, An art therapy session provides participants with a creative outlet to express their emotions. Attendees engaged in painting, drawing, and other artistic activities that encouraged self-expression and served as a form of mental boost, Some shared their problems with the psychologists and they returned to their houses with mental relief but this was not only a mental relief for the participants but also for Riya, Sachin, Regina
While the art therapy session was in progress, Riya saw the guy whom she met on the bus, the guy with a brownie!!
She was shocked and decided not to meet him so she secretly moved away from art therapy, while she was moving away she was caught by her professor and he said that he wanted to introduce someone to her, Riya had no option left again, so she went him, but as her fate, the professor went straight to him, Riya tried to hide but that guy saw her and he too remembers Riya, but he speaks he doesn't know her, Riya maintained the same after the professor left, Riya started to apologize again and he smiled for everything Riya said, Riya got little annoyed and she asked " Is there anything on my face, or am I joking here, why are you smiling like a clown "
He said," I'm sorry, pepper spray, but whatever you say or do, I get only an image of your face full of brownie " and again he went on laughing to the core!!
Riya got angry and started to move away, but he went back to her apologizing and still laughing ?, Riya stood at some point and turned back at him," See, Mr Brownie, that incident is an embarrassing one for me, don't judge me with that incident, I am an over reactor, I accept it, but please stop laughing about that incident!!!"
That guy with a bright smile said," Look, Ms Pepper Spray, I'm sorry for laughing!!, and I didn't judge you with that incident, OK, let's end this here, cool?
Riya with a calm face said "OK then, I'm Riya, Nice to meet you"
He introduced himself as "I'm Rahul!!"
They both enjoyed the time, Rahul is a psychology student, and Riya was glad to meet a new kind of person, he is very calm and he easily gets attached to Riya!!,
Normally people won't open up at their first meet but they both spoke like they had known each other for like 7 years!!
They both went on talking and the program came to an end, Riya gave the vote of thanks
As everyone started to leave, Rahul gave the idea of playing truth or dare as it would be fun as well as useful to get to know each other, Riya introduced him to Sachin and Regina,
It's around 5 p.m., and they still have 2 hours to leave, so they sit around a campfire to feel that vibe!!
First Riya said the only rule is" You must speak only the truth"
They started to spin the bottle,
Rahul cleared his throat, his eyes sparkling mischievously as the bottle pointed at Sachin. "Alright, Sachin," he began, "let's dig into your inner secrets. Tell us, what's the most embarrassing thing you've ever done in front of your crush?" He leaned back, smiling, clearly ready to enjoy Sachin's response.
Sachin chuckled, a slight blush moving slowly up his cheeks. "Oh man, you had to ask that, huh?" he said, rubbing the back of his neck. "Well, there was this one time in high school. I was trying to impress this girl I liked, so I decided to show off my 'awesome' skateboard skills. Long story short, I ended up tripping over the skateboard, falling flat on my face, and knocking over a whole stack of books she was holding. Yeah, not my finest moment." He smiled sheepishly, shaking his head at the memory.
At the same time, Regi turned to Sachin laughing heavily, and said " I remembered it, Actually, the girl he tried to impress, is none other than it's me, I couldn't believe I fell for that!!"
Next spin,
Rahul grinned mischievously as the bottle's neck pointed at Riya. "Alright, Riya," he began, his eyes flashing with expectation, "truth or dare?"
Riya,with a playful twinkle in her eyes matching his. "Dare," she replied confidently, ready to take on whatever challenge he had in store.....
