What to do?
My name is Jiya. My dream is to do nothing but have everything. I am not like other girls in my classroom. They have boyfriends. It's not like I am ugly or stupid. I am very talented and never failed any exams but hate studies.
Now come to my family. My mom has control over our house. I have an elder brother and a younger sister both are my mom's favourite children because they behave well and have goals in their lives. My mom loves me too but the problem is I never listen to her. I mean I am lazy to do work. My sweet dad is always on my side. He sometimes gets angry because of the best future.
I remember him scolding me because of skipping my breakfast. Sometimes I don't want to eat because the food is not my favourite.
My brother loves me so much but I will not do any of his work and my sister, umm...she is cute but she is too perfect. Her height, weight, colour and hair everything is beautiful. I am the only lazy and misbehaving child in this house.
When I am in school, I have so many friends but Because I am an introvert I will never start a conversation. I am an extrovert in front of some chosen people.
In my school, I remember it's sports day. I am in the tenth grade. We got tired of playing games and we went to drink water. As you know my friends never leave my side but they left me one by one because they have boyfriends. And I left alone standing there
They started to leave me one by one so I had to go alone to the ground and suddenly a guy (who was my classmate) came to me and pinned me to the wall. (Obviously, for me it's not romantic and I was startled by him.) the guy had a sweet smile on his face and he was quite handsome. ( I am bad at remembering names and faces if they are not that close to me or you can say like highlighted characters in a movie) And He called my name.
"Jiya.., I have something to tell you."
I was like "Okay" I tried to move away from him but my body was not responding to my decision.
He said "143"
I was confused: "143! Do you want any maths notes or (I got happy) do you want me to teach you maths " ( because I can get paid for that)
By looking at his face I thought he called me dumb. He said " No! No! I mean, I love you"
That time I thought about how 143 is connected to I love you. And asked him.
He explained to me "1=I, 4=love and 3=you."
Now I understand how dumb I am. For me, it's not that lovely and I laughed at it because it's so cheesy. He asked for my answer but I got silent for a moment and I pushed him a little and ran from him.
We didn't talk to each other. I thought I insulted him because I didn't know how to react at that time. It was my first proposal.
I told my close friend Mimi about it. She told me that he was in the top class and called me dumb for behaving like that.
It doesn't make any sense. Do you guys know we both never failed in exams? Yes, the whole percentage is indeed different from each other.
I decided to say sorry to him if he ever came in front of me. Our final exams were over but I never got a chance to talk to him. Sometimes I went to his classroom but I got nervous every time because he was always surrounded by someone. At that time I got to know how popular he was.
In our school, all the top-class boys were famous for some reason. He was one of them. He was a little silent that's why I didn't notice him that much.
One day during class time I saw him walking in a passage and I took permission from the teacher to go to the washroom.
I wanted to call his name but we can't shout in the passage. I tried to walk fast but he entered the Principal's office.
I couldn't meet him. After that incident, I decided if anyone proposed to me I would never ignore them.
Now I have to decide which course is best for me. I decided to choose Art.
From tomorrow I have to go to college. I am quite nervous and happy too. My friend Mimi also chose the same course. The college campus is also big and beautiful. It's a famous college. My parents are quite rich so I don't care.
I am sad to know that my Mimi's boyfriend also chose the same college. I wish I get new friends who are single like me.
Mimi and I decided to go for shopping. We purchased so many things. Now we are in a same college so we need to maintain so many things. Our college has no dress code so we need to buy new clothes to wear daily.
My brother also finished his degree from the same college. My brother told me so many things. Like, how to maintain a study timetable and have to follow rules. It's all gone over my head.
Let me tell you something interesting. My brother got a girlfriend. She is so beautiful and she is best for my brother. She once came to our home. My parents liked her. My sister-in-law brought sweet cookies for us.
I prepared everything for tomorrow. Now It's sleep time but I can't sleep. I never thought about having a boyfriend but in future, I have to marry someone. It's mean, Do I have to find someone? But I never thought to propose to someone even if someone came to me I never thought of any connection or feeling that I love them.
While thinking about it I fell asleep.
It's morning, I freshen up myself. Went to eat breakfast. Like every day my mom gave lectures to me. How to behave, How to study.
Mimi called me because we decided to go together. We stay in the same building. Our houses are far away from our college. So our parents rent a flat for us. The flat is ready to live in but we decided to go there after a week.
My brother drives us to the college. We got an I'D card which we have to scan before entering the college campus.
As I said the college looks like the dream college shown in the dramas. Big and beautiful.
The seniors who welcomed us with some pamphlets were so handsome and beautiful.
The pamphlet is about joining some additional classes.
Mimi was so happy. It's our first day for first-year students so there's a program for us. The program was held in the big sports ground. There were so many students with different combinations. Seniors were singing dancing and showing their talents. We also got a food court there, the food was delicious.
Some girls already falling for boys. We talked with so many new people. We find two people with the same combinations. Their names are Shiji and Fulu.
Shiji's house was nearby. Fulu stayed in the same building as our room ( flat ) . It's good for us to have a new friend. It's already evening some students showing their dance moves.
My brother called me to pick us up. We waited for him at the college gate. Some students were leaving to go to their house because it was too late.
While waiting for my brother I noticed a familiar face. She was with me in school. Her whole team was there. I don't like her personally because she was a bully. It's not like she intentionally did it but she took advantage of being popular. Most of the boys liked her because she was beautiful and hot. Some boys and girls behave like a slaves to her.
She likes to show off her beauty and had so many relationships. Everyone knows that boys talked shit about her at the back but in front of her, they behave as if they liked her.
I don't like her not because she had so many relationships. No! but because I feel like she was too dumb to understand that people using her or making fun of her.
Whenever we talked to each other at school time she was not a bad person.
I showed Mimi where they were standing. One of her friends noticed us and waved at us. Unfortunately, we have to smile at them. They came near to us. We talked nicely with each other.
Her name is Diwei.
She told me that she met the guy who proposed to me at the sports day. She told me she was close to him and he took a coding course here.
While she was talking about him I knew she just sharing information about some of our schoolmates who were also here but I felt "Why was she telling me about this?"
At that time my brother came to us. Mimi and I said bye to them. I was comfortable until she talked about him. I wish he would never show up in front of me.
Mimi made fun of me by taking his name. I am still dumb that I laughed at that.
It's confusing, Do I need to meet him? Or better to stay away from him. We told our brother about how our first day went. Before going home we bought some snacks for my sister because she asked for them.
But the next day we need to attend classes so boring.
I was getting to go to college. I wanted to wear a baby pink mini frock but ended up wearing jeans because Mimi didn't want to wear a frock.
When entered the college it was different from yesterday. Everyone rushed to their classes. When we entered classes we saw Shiji and Fulu already sitting in the class.
And after the classes, it's almost lunchtime. There was a canteen a little far from our college building. There are so many students. Some of them eat in the garden. Fulu is quite a silent girl but Shiji is energetic. She was looking at the boys and commenting about how handsome they were. Apart from that, she was a cool girl.
We ordered our food. When we were eating an unexpected guest Diwei came to us. "I just don't like it"
They sat next to our table. She called me and asked us if we (me and Mimi) wanted to join the school reunion party. We would like to go because it's fun to meet them but the question is who planned the party? I asked her about it. She told me that she was the one who planned it.
The next weekend was selected to do that party. I was a little bit curious to know if he would come to the party. After the news spread to our schoolmates, some of them called us and showed how much they were happy to meet each other.
It's the weekend, Mimi is looking stunning and her boyfriend is too..yeah you can say looking okay. We booked a cab for us. When we arrived there, my heart started to pound fast. I was nervous what if he came? We entered the restaurant and the restaurant filled with my schoolmates. Everyone started to talk to each other and share their college life. I don't know but my eyes wanted to see someone there but the person was not there.
Everyone shared the bill. Diwei was telling everyone about him. How he became close to her because he was not there. It's nothing to do with me but she was showing off too much. I was not feeling good there so we decided to go home.
When we were leaving, someone entered the restaurant. He was tall and well-dressed. Curly messy hair. Confidence on his face. He looked stunning. We three stood there because Diwei asked us to stay longer but I didn't want to stay.
He came and everyone got hyped up suddenly because he was the famous guy at our school because he was good at sports and studying. He was the one who proposed to me. I got a little nervous I don't know why. It's been a while he must have forgotten about that.
I wanted to go out but it would make a fuss so I decided to stay. We made eye contact but he immediately looked away.
I know it's an awkward moment but I need to stay calm.
She was almost hugging him and he was so calm about it. Maybe because they were dating. I don't want to think about them.
Someone asked what was he thinking. He didn't answer about that. He looked at that person and drank his juice. Diwei replied that there was nothing between them. She was the only schoolmate he was in contact with. Her ex-boyfriend was also there. Everyone teased him. They asked if he might be jealous. He answered that he was dating someone else.
We guys stayed there for four hours. My brother called me. He told me my cousin had come to meet me. I shouted "Really!" Everyone looked at me. I went outside to talk. My brother said my cousin would pick up me after ten minutes.
My cousin's name is Xin. He was the same age as me. He treats me like a little sister because he is the only child in his family.
I went inside and told Mimi and his boyfriend that I had to leave early.
We told everyone that we were leaving. And they both booked the cab and waited for it. Their cab came first. My cousin called me he would be there in five minutes I was happy to meet him. He was so different from my brother because my brother was a little strict.
Most of my friends were leaving. They asked me if they could drop me anywhere. I told them that my cousin was coming for pickup.
Diwei and he also came outside. I didn't want to talk but I knew she would talk to me. I wished my cousin to come fast. As accepted she came towards me. "Are you waiting for anyone?" She asked. I told her about my cousin.
He was talking to his friends. I think he remembered that and is still angry at me.
It's not like I did that on purpose. I don't care. I tried my best to say sorry. She went back to her friends.
My cousin arrived with his car. He got out of the car and came to me. He came with a beautiful smile and patted my head. As I know he is the best brother to me. They were looking at us. I noticed that he was looking at us. "Let's go," my cousin said.
I also wanted to leave but my eyes were on him. He looked away and they were leaving too. Cu
