First day of college
This is how the story began when two individuals were about to meet, who were completely unknown to each other.
The girl's name was Neha, and the boy's name was Rahul
Neha and Rahul had not met for the first time here; they had met before, had fought before, but you know how we have a habit of forgetting little things. Neha had also forgotten Rahul;
and Rahul, on the other hand, hadn't forgotten. Neha had slapped Rahul without any reason, and Rahul could never forget that slapped by Neha.

Hostel
Neha entered college, where she encountered another person who would become crucial in her life. The beginning of a friendship marked by promises and a lifelong commitment.
At the hostel gate, Neha was bidding farewell to her parents when she noticed another girl. The girl reassured her parents, instructing them on how to take care of themselves.
girl with Deep brown eyes, a subtle tinge of hazel, silky, flowing hair resembling spun silk down to her waist, small raspberry-like lips, a sweet and gentle voice – she was a very beautiful girl.
girl - i had already ordered medicines three months in advance, and labeled and stored them in the medicine box okay .She guided her's parents on where ahe keep government documents in the locker. The girl comforted her's mother, asking her not to cry, as she would manage everything.
Keep the cupboard keys with you, and if there's anything else, feel free to call me.
She reassured them that these 5.5 years would pass in the blink of an eye.And I'll keep coming in between. mamma Dad, please be quiet, both of you stop crying, or I'll start crying too.
Neha was observing the girl with surprise because she seemed scared a little bit. it was a new place, new people, and ultimately, she had to stay away from her family. Instead of being afraid herself, the girl was reassuring and explaining things to her parents.
Neha - Bye, Mamma Bye, papa Take care, and I'll keep calling, okay
bye bye
Hostel room
Neha was about to open the room gate when the girl approached and said, "Hello, my name is Rajani."
Neha:- Hello, Rajani.
i am neha . nice to meet you
Rajani:-We both have the same room.
Neha:- Oh, wow! It feels good to know that we both will be together
they opened the room gate, and inside were two beds, a wardrobe, and a study table – just the room and nothing else. Neha found it a bit strange as she had never stayed in such a room before.
Neha and Rajani were silently observing each other for a while, not saying anything. Perhaps they were both surprised and a bit overwhelmed by the new place.
As they continued to do so, the night fell, and both were left glancing around here and there. They managed to settle the room to some extent, but figuring out exactly how to make it feel like home was a challenge for both of them.
Rajani:- You take the bed near the window. I'll take the other one.
Neha: Okay, no problem.
After the lights were off, Neha was looking at pictures of her mom and dad on her phone, reminiscing about where she came from and how close she was to realizing her dream of becoming a doctor. All her dreams were coming true, tears of joy in her eyes, yet there was a hint of sadness for being so far away now.
Suddenly, someone was approaching Neha's bed in the middle of the night.
Neha gets scared and sits up abruptly, only to realize that it's Rajani who has approached her bed.
Neha: Rajani, it's you! What are you doing? I got scared, didn't know who came in. Is everything okay with you? Are you alright?
Rajani: Yes, yes, it's me. The thing is, I was feeling scared. It's a new place, you know? So, I was coming to your side. I thought someone might come in through the gate. I got scared, I'm sorry.
Neha: Oh, don't be sorry, friend. And the gate is closed; no one will come in. Don't be scared.
Rajani: I'm feeling scared. Can I sleep on your bed, please? If you don't have a problem with it.
Neha: Okay, you sleep. I'll sleep on your bed.
Rajani: No, no. Let's both sleep together; the bed is big enough for both of us. If you don't feel uncomfortable, please.
That night, they slept together on one bed. Neha couldn't help but think that the girl who was consoling her parents outside was now here, scared like a child. It struck her how circumstances could make us feel vulnerable and childlike despite our grown-up roles.
It was the beginning of a friendship that would evolve into sisterhood.
morning ?☀️
"It was morning, and it was the first day of college for both of them, but they had joined one month late."
The first day was very beautiful for both of them; everything felt like a dream. Even the smallest things brought joy, perhaps because this was when your years-long dream of getting into your dream college finally came true.
But there was one thing that kept coming up repeatedly for both of them: the campus leader.
"The campus leader. (In the college, there was a rule that every new student received a challenge upon entering the campus. Whoever won the challenge would be announced as the campus topper."This challenge was given every year.")"
"In the boys, Rahul was the winner, and everywhere, the only discussion was about Rahul. Everywhere, only one name, Rahul, was being discussed (especially among girls)."
Rahul..
Rahul.....
Rahul.....
"Neha and Rajni were also getting curious to see Rahul, but he wasn't in the college at that time."
Knowing this thing, Neha was disappointed and she did not know why Because she was missing Rahul's absence, why she wanted to see him so much, she had only heard one name Rahul...
"The same challenge was won by every girl, and Neha won the campus leader challenge. Neha was happy. Rajani was also very happy with Neha's victory. Rajani was a cheerful soul who found happiness in everyone's joy, especially when it came to her roommate."
But Neha was not feeling good, she was still thinking about Rahul.
She kept thinking about the conversations with the girls repeatedly. Now, she wanted to see Rahul and figure out who is the one receiving so much attention and praise from everyone
Rajani - What are you thinking? It's party time! My friend is the campus leader, yeeeee!
Neha - But that guy won before me, right?
Rajani - So what if he won among the guys? You're the winner among the girls. If you had competed first, you would have been the first winner.
Rajani - Now, who knows how he looks, and you're wasting your evening for that guy. Come on, let go of him, let's enjoy the party.
let's party..????.
Neha - Yes, okay, don't shout, please. The hostel guard might come, wondering why she's yelling if there's no fire. Relax, Rajani.
Rajani - What's going on? You've won, and I shouldn't even shout. I'll shout and dance; come on, let's dance! Yeee yeeeeeeee yeeeeeeeee!
After partying, both Rajani and Neha went to sleep, with Rajani sleeping beside Neha. But Neha was still thinking about Rahul; thoughts of Rahul kept coming back to her.
Rajani - Seeing Neha lost in deep thoughts, she says, "Go to sleep now. That guy will join college in a few days, and then you can meet him."
Neha - Yeah, okay. I won't think about it. You go to sleep. Good night! ?
(Neha, talking to herself in her mind...) - "What am I even thinking about someone I haven't seen yet? I've been imagining things about him since then. I must be going crazy."
Neha has now fallen asleep, unaware of what lies ahead. She has made a guy's name the center of her anticipation. What will happen after meeting him is uncertain, but who knows, they say love often starts with a fight. Something similar might unfold.....
