I arrived to my grandparent home at 6 am. I walked towards the pond and waited for everyone to wake up. I sat peacefully to my favorite spot of the house.

I heard screaming and laughing noise of my aunt and cousins, walked back in the house. I saw my aunt Cezin, she gave me a bear hug and asked me to change the clothes.

Furthermore, I settle down and walked in the kitchen, saw aunt cooking breakfast for everyone. I smiled at her and give her pouty face.

‘You haven't changed a bit, still you are my naughty niece',she laughed.

"Yes aunt, I would never change for you," I gave her genuine smile.

She fed me food with her own hand, she had always motherly love towards me.

"Aunt, Can I have your phone until I am here,"I asked her phone innocently.

“Yes, you can have it but with whom you will talk," She raised her eyebrows.

“I would talk my school friends and use social media”, I said easily. I took her phone and called Zaan, but he didn't receive the call.

After few tried, I yawned and slept on the sofa. I woke up at 1a.m and started panicking when I saw Zaan message and missed call. I called him back, but he didn't receive again. He might have slept that's why he is not receiving my call.

I was drinking water when the phone started ringing. I saw Zaan name on the screen. Furthermore, I received the call happily, but the voice was not Zaan.

“I am Zaan elder brother”, the unwelcoming voice said in a harsh tone.

“Oh”, hearing silently.

“I wanted to talk to you, What both have you decided?”, he asked in a threatened tone.

“About what are you saying?”, I asked in a low tone.

“See, we have a good relationship with your father. We don't want any problem between us. Its better you leave him. Have you understood? “, he asked in a stern voice.

“hmm ok," I replied in a cracking tone.

Then he ended the call and I can't bear the pain, broke into tears. This I can't do. I love him.

I was crying a lot, when my aunt came, hold me into tight hug, and she knew something went wrong, “Why are you crying”?

"I don't know what to do, I love him," I told her everything and said in a cracking voice.

She wiped my tears and slowly move her hands in my hair and said in a caring way, “First ask the boy, then take any decision”. I understood her points and waited for the morning to ask the Zaan about this.

I woke up by roaring, my head spins, couldn't open my eyes, I feeling like feverish. Likewise, I was laying on my bed Zaan called me. I received the call and roared in pain,

Kaya, good morning . ~Z

Hmm, good morning. ~K

What happened? ~Z

I told him about last night, how his brother called from his phone and asked me to leave him.

“I would talk him," he listened to me and got infuriated.

“Don’t leave me Kaya ever,"Then he said with pleading voice.

I was glad that my answer was also the same.

“I would never leave you," I replied him with tears.

I returned back from my grandparents home. I have not informed Zaan about my arrival. Its a surprise for him. I stood in the balcony, and saw Zaan was playing cricket, the ball flew in the sky and his eyes gaze struck on the me, I wore a pink frock with black leggings with my new hair cut, she looked more stunning. He was amused by watching me today.

I called him and he took out his phone and received the call.

I said him happily,

How's my surprise? ~K

Very nice, I am happy that you are back. ~Z

Me too. ~K

I wanted to tell you something, today my result came. ~Z

Really? How much you got ? ~K

I got -80%. ~ Z

Wow! So good. I should give a gift now. ~K

I don't want any gift. ~Z

But I want to give you a sweet gift, that would be a kiss. ~K

What! Are you serious? ~Z

Yes, but on the cheek. ~K

Really, Ok done! When would you give me. ~Z

Tomorrow, early in the morning come near the tree house. That no one would be there. ~K

Ok ! I would be there. ~Z

Ok!done Mr. Ahmad. ~ K

Next morning, I hurriedly ran from the house early in the morning. It was too risky for me but still for Zaan, I took the risk. I was nervous and my heart starts pounding speedily. The closer the tree house come the faster heart rate increases. I wore dark blue kurti with blue leggings and open hair and he dressed up denim black jacket contrast with white shirt and black jeans. I asked him since how much time he was waiting.

"I was so excited of getting a kiss that entire night I didn't sleep and reached in the tree house before sunrise. I walked to and fro, sat on a different place eagerly awaiting for you," He replied flustering.

I looked at Zaan, then kept my head down looking at my fingers. I waited for a few minutes to kiss him. No one was there except both of us. I raised my head and looked at him intently and my attention stopped on his lips. He came closer to me and moved his head facing me.

"Turn your head that side then I would kiss you", I said in a soft voice.

He turned his head side and inclined his body. I blushed and went closer to him, his powdery scent filled my nose. I quickly kissed on his cheek and turn my head towards the left.

He flushed with the kiss and touched his cheek.

"Now, I gave you a gift, bye," I said smiling.

"Yes, thank you”.

His eyes sparkled and said with a warm smile. I sheepishly smiled and turned my head. I was embarrassed that I kissed him right or not. Not only that, but I kissed first time to someone, he liked it or not. Although his expression says that he liked but still I wanted to know. I decided to leave the place to rescue from more embarrassment and hurriedly went back home. My thoughts were filled with the today kiss and his closeness which felt hundreds butterflies in my stomach.

Few months later

My exams were going of second term.

I had a fight against Alyi again . She brought the mobile which being in school is not allowed. So, I told about her to the in charge. She got scolding for her indiscipline behaviour. Yesterday, I was absent due to headache. I entered the school, everyone eyes were on me and whispering with each other.

I went near the class and saw Alyi and her group buzzing there. Alyi scrunched her nose and came near to me with mocking smile, "Look, who's here!"

Everyone gazes stopped on me and gave sideways glances at me with hatred. I was confused by their expression but ignored them.

I was going in the class, when Alyi caught my wrist and twisted it. Likewise, I winced in pain and pushed her with my other hand.

"Just, wait for a few minutes. Then you will experience the hell. I took my revenge sweetie," She said arrogantly with flaring her nose.

"Do whatever, I don't care," I glared at her fuming with anger,

The bell rang of the first class and everyone hurriedly settled on their seat. I took my seat in the 2nd row and everyone had different emotions like hatred, sympathy and confused.

“Everyone took out your book,"Our English teacher, Mrs. Singh came and said with stern voice.

“You were absent yesterday. Why?"

Her gaze stopped on me and pointed her finger and said with a wolfish smile.

“Yes, I was absent due to headache,"I answered back in low tone.

“Come here," She shrugged and ordered me.

I went near her desk and stood beside her. Unexpectedly, she threw a piece of paper on my face in front of everyone. I was shocked by her behavior.

"Whose number is in this paper"?She said angrily pushed her chair.

"Madam, I don't know about this, neither it's mine,"I said in trembling voice, quivered and looked at the paper.

“Yesterday, I check everyone bags. This number came out from the Alyi pencil box, But this was given by you. Kia has told me about this number and that boy Sandra too," Then she kept her hand on the desk and started shouting at me.

I blanch by her blame and behavior. “Mam, I was absent yesterday and I haven't given this number to anyone. You can't criticize me unless you found from my bag," I shook my head and eyebrows raised and pulled together.

"No mam, She had given me this number and Kia was also present there," Alyi said in an innocent tone.

She clenched her teeth and grasp my hand firmly, taking me to the principal. She dragged me to the principal's office. I got panicked and went on my knees and begged her, “Please, mam I am innocent. I didn't do anything, leave me”.

”You are innocent, then I should inform your parent too," She sarcastically remarked and didn't listen to me.

I cry out in front of the office, “Please, Don't call my parents”.

The principal burst out from her office and asked the matter from Mrs. Singh. She told her what Alyi had fed the lies. They told me strictly to bring my parent or don't come back to school until they meet with them. I was trembling with the fear of my father and turned pale.

Alyi took her revenge by creating hell for me. I was not able to concentrate on my studies the entire day. My mind went blank from today incident. I felt backstabbed from Sandre that not only he tried to get fame on my name but in school he got involved with Alyi to get revenge from me. I trusted the wrong person for which I have to face the circumstances. From onwards, I would never forgive him for his deeds. I am glad that I broke everything from him without further destruction.

The Next day, I hadn't strength to tell the school incident to my parents.

So, I decided that I wouldn't go school today. I stayed in my room and tried to concentrate on my studies but miserably I failed. My father got called from the school, the principal asked my parents to come in the school with me. I tried to make excuses and not go school but my mother didn't fall in my trap. When we reached the school, the entire school was empty. I slowly walked beside my mother. I cringed in terror every second how my mother reaction would be. My mother knocked the door,

"Come inside, Mrs. Richard," the principal asked us.

We went inside and sat on the chair in front of her. She called my English teacher and asked her to come in the office too.

“Mrs. Richard, your daughter is distributing a boy number to everyone in the class. She is creating a nuisance in my class. Kindly teach her some manners at home," She said with a crooked smile and came with that paper in her right hand.

“What she said, Is it true?" My mother furiously looked at me and asked in a threatening tone.

"This is not true," I lowered my head looking at my toes and was ready to burst into tears.

”This is true, girls have seen her while giving that number," Mrs. Singh stares angrily.

”They are lying and trying to get their revenge," I stood up and replied in frustration.

Suddenly, My mother slapped me in front of them. The room filled with the silence and whimper of my right cheek sting pain. My teacher got her enjoyment, and they asked her to put restriction on me.

We returned home and I directly went back to my room and lay down on bed and cried with my heart. I startled as my father burst out in my room, his face was so red and his eyes looked like an angry demon as he glared at me.

My shoulders slumped heavily as I observed his reaction. I uneasily shifted on my bed.

"Father, It's not true," I said in cracking voice.

He didn't listen a word and started beating me with his shoe.

I begged and whimper in pain, near the door my mother was standing there. I hoped that at once she would come and stopped him.

“See, I told you not to allow her phone, but you didn't listen to me," She said in a stern voice, shrugged her shoulders.

"I would not think once when it's on my reputation, I would cut you all in one piece, if I could allow her. Then I could ban everything from today onwards," My father said savagely.

He left the room and threw the shoe corner of the room. I winced in pain, my body got red bruises and a cut near my chin. I lay down on the bed and felt devastated. The pain that no one once hear me out it really hurts me from inside.
