Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter:-1

15 th January, 1988

I woke up around 6am today, for completing my physics homework. Usually I wake up around 7am and leave for school around 7:30 or something. Today while brushing teeth I sneaked out of my window and noticed something. The house of Mrs. Menon which is just beside us got sold and new neighbors already arrived. I washed my face and wore my specs to get a good look at the family. A middle aged man (around 45 l guess) came out of two suitcases... followed by a lady. After a while, I saw a girl( maybe of my age which is 15) came out of the car. She had pale yet straight blonde hair... she was looking downwards so I couldn't see her face clearly. She was wearing an olive colored cardigan and black jeans. After that I realized I was running super late and also got my physics homework.

I completed it around 7:25... I rushed towards kitchen to grab some breakfast.

"James, you are going to be late today" mom gave me a glass of orange juice.

" I know and I should leave Right now" I said while chewing a bread.

"Anyways you saw our new neighbors...."

"Yes" I replied while wearing my shoes.

" Oh... I met them few minutes ago. Mrs. White is such a lovely lady and their daughter...." I interrupted mom by say "BYE"

I took my bike and started cycling towards my school... suddenly I crashed with my new neighbor's daughter and she fell down with her bike.

"sorry sorry... I didn't" I helped her to stand up

"no no its alright" she smiled and again continued to cycle towards the woods behind our house.

I realized I was also getting late so I continued towards my school. While cycling I was thinking about this girl. She is beautiful. I mean genuinely beautiful. She got these beautiful light green iris.

Her skin is extremely light toned and she got red freckles on her checks. Throughout the day I kept on thinking about her. Today physics equation also didn't bother me ... but that girl ... she was literally haunting me. I wished to know her name.
