“Reality check! If you really wanna live, let others live as well, or else you will be only the one living in the world isolated...”

When the last bell of the school echoed in every corner of the school building, students and teachers started to rush out of their classrooms.
Ojaswi, who was so eager and desperate to meet Shishir after a long day, was the last to pack her belongings up and walk out of the school.
Happily, she rushed out of the school building, but as she proceeded towards the gate, suddenly the boy appeared in front of him.
“Oh! You again,” Ojaswi muttered, rolling her eyes.
“Yes, dear it's me who came to bid you bye. I
“In life when you get troubles, don’t get nervous. Just close your eyes and follow your heart. Your heart may be in on your left but it is always right and loves you…!”[*****]Ojaswi jolted with his yell and mistakenly ended pressing the send button. When the break was applied all of a sudden, she flew from her seat and ended up hitting her head on the back of the front seat.Hastily Akash got down from the car and questioned, opening the back door, “Are you alright?”“What- what just happened?” holding her head, Ojaswi got down from the car.“Why don’t you fasten your seat belt, ma’am? Don’t you know it is compulsory to buckle the seat belt so
“Do not say a little in many words, but say a lot in a few words…”[*****]Reaching the home, Ojaswi got down and headed straight inside. Akash silently followed her behind. Suddenly his phone rang.Shoving his hand inside his pocket, he took his cell phone out. But the moment his eyes fell on caller ID, he panicked immediately.He took a deep breath before pressing the answer key and tucking it on his ear.“Where the hell are you? Why didn’t you reply to my message?” Shishir exploded soon after the call was answered.“Sorry, boss I was actually driving,” replied Akash, trying to control his panic as much as he can.
“Loving should come along with respect because without respect no relation can flourish…!”[*****]She searched the whole wardrobe but was not able to find it. “Where did it go?” she muttered in panic.Ojaswi looked around and suddenly noticed a bag on the bedside table. She walked towards the bag and read the sentence written on the bag.“I hope this will make you forgive me to the fullest and makes you jump in happiness!”In astonishment, she looked inside the bag, she saw a box on it. Shoving her hand inside, she took out the box. She then opened the box wasting no second.“YOU MUST BE KIDDING ME,” her eyes widened
“What is the use of loving madly when the string of trust is long broken?”[****]“Come…” she tried to walk away but Shishir pulled her and looking deep into her eyes, questioned, “tell me what happened to your forehead, right now or else you will regret it.”Ojaswi thought for a while and stammering said, “Actually, the thing is I got hurt when Harry was chasing me. I fell and hurt my knee and forehead.”“No, lies Ojaswi, no lies,” Shishir’s voice was cold and solemn.“No, I am not lying. You see it yourself,” she took a step back and showed him her knee.Shishir scanned both wounds and
“I really don’t remember when I fell in love with him even after that numerous nasty fights...”[*****]“And here we are,” Shishir announced, stopping the car in front of the gate.“Thank you,” Ojaswi mumbled, unbuckling her seat belt. She then got down from the car. As she was about to close the door, suddenly Shishir called out, “Ojaswi…”“Yeah,” she replied leaning and looking inside.With a witty smile on his face, he said, “Make sure no more creating mess.”Ojaswi smiled and said, “have a good day.”
“I hope you are doing alright in my absence…”[****]As she peeped she saw him at the distance, “What? He is leaving? Where… where are you going? He said he will help and now he is running away…”She closed back the door and muttered furiously, “I knew he would run. If he couldn’t help then he should have at least said. But now he is so eager to run away. Why would he even say that he would help even if he had no intention of helping?”Suddenly she heard the knock again. “Now who the hell is it?” she rolled her eyes.“Ojaswi…’ Harry called out.“He is back aga
“Happiness results from good acts, pain from evil ones…!”[*****]Ojaswi didn’t make any movement during the whole class. But when the bell for lunch break rang, she got up and immediately rushed out of her classroom. She began to search for Harry.She searched the whole class and the corridor but he was nowhere to be found. Then she went to the playground, in the distance she saw him talking with his friend. Without wasting a second, she walked to him.Approaching him, she patted his shoulder. When he turned around his eyes widened seeing her.“Hey!” He mumbled faintly.Ojaswi glanced at him with her wide eyes and retorted, &
“I better stay alone than to prove myself every day… at this point of life I feel like impressing own self is better than trying to impress others…”[*****]She took a deep breath and pushed the door. When she saw Shishir sitting opposite the Principal, her heart skipped.“Here you are, Miss Winslet. Mr. Mendes is seeking some answer from you, please come in,” Principal instructed with a smile plastered on his face.She was not able to understand his smile. So she just nodded her head and stepped inside. Approaching Shishir she stood beside him.“Have a seat,” ordered Shishir without giving a single glance
Ojaswi rubbed her forehead in anxiety. Slowly she stepped in front of the camera and with difficulty she was able to face the camera. Then rubbing her forehead in nervousness, she started, “I…” “Stop…” suddenly Shishir entered the show. “Shishir?” She was astounded, so was everyone. “What are you doing here, Shishir? Don’t worry, I got this, please go,” Ojaswi tried to make him return but Shishir’s eyes were fixed on William. He made his way towards William coldly. “I am not letting you win this easily,” he said looking deep into his eyes. “What do you mean?” William raised his brows. Shishir turned to the camera and said, “I am sorry for intruding in the show this way
“My love for you is infinite in number…”[*****]“Okay, I am in but I have two conditions…”“Go ahead…” William said casually.Carefully, Shishir darted at the screen waiting for her to tell what conditions she had.“First all the voting lines will be live…” she kept her first condition.“Okay done… and second?” William agreed without any hesitation and hurried to hear her next condition.With a grin on her face, she said, “there will be no mention of names in the photographs.”
“Dealing with it seemed almost impossible for me before I remembered people know very little of me and there is no big deal when people judge me knowing very little of me.”[****]“Do you think this will work?” Having doubts about what she was going to do next, Ojaswi questioned Shishir.“Of course, I am damn sure about it. I believe you will get through this. Whatever you have decided is a great move, I am proud of you.” Shishir pulled her in his arms.He kissed her head before letting her go. Ojaswi was about to walk onto the stage when suddenly Kate appeared.“Going without seeing me?”“Kate…” Oja
“No matter how bad things get, the sun will rise again and its light will find you…”#copied[*****]“I am suffocating,” as Ojaswi said suddenly Shishir hit the break.“What? What happened? Is it very serious? Should I take you to the hospital?” he questioned, taking a glance at her. “What a fool I am? Why am I asking you that? I better take you to the hospital.” He started to drive the car again.“No, Shishir doctors cannot help me,” Ojaswi replied sadly.“Is it that serious? Don’t worry once we get there we will know,” he blurted in panic.“I don’t need medical atten
“Give yourself enough respect to walk away from anyone who doesn’t see your worth…”[*****]“Are you ready?” questioned Shishir extending his hand towards her.Ojaswi grasped his hand and stepped out of the car with a warm smile. “Always, when I am with you.”“Okay, then…, let’s go in...”Ojaswi hooked her hand around his arm and they marched towards the school building, which was noisy with loud music coming from the hall.As they were about to reach the hall, suddenly Ojaswi came to halt. Shishir couldn’t understand and questioned, “What happened?”
“If you don’t sacrifice for what you want, what you want becomes the sacrifice…”[*****]“Please… don’t do this to me, please…” She begged but he threw her on the road and slipped on the driver's seat.She hastily got on her feet and ran towards him. “Harry, please… stop… please…. Don’t leave me here.”Without paying any attention to her cry, he drove the car away. She ran after his car crying and shouting but he left with a satisfied smile on his face.Helplessly, Ojaswi glanced at both sides. There was no sighting of any vehicle. She didn’t even have her cell phone and there was no way for her to seek help
“When you love what you have you have everything you need…” #copied[****]With tears on the brim of her eyelid, Ojaswi said in a low tone, “I miss you so much, Shishir…”“I too miss you a lot, my love. Don’t worry I will be there soon,” Shishir replied, trying to console her.“It has been one week, Shishir. I have not seen you for one week. You have no idea how hard it is to live without seeing you,” she walked to the window and stood.“Believe me, I too want to see you, my love. But my work is not ending here.” His voice sounded sad.“When are you coming back?” Ojaswi ra
“Small steps in the right direction are better than big steps in the wrong direction…” #copied[*****]Ojaswi hastily ventured, “I am sorry... I am sorry, I didn’t mean to…”Unexpectedly Shishir pressed his lips against her. Ojaswi froze with his action and opened her eyes wide.Pulling away Shishir pressed his forehead against her and cupped her face. “I don’t like fighting with you…”Ojaswi hugged him tightly. “I too don’t like it. I am really sorry.”“It’s alright…” he said pulling away and wrapping his hand around her shoulder pulled her to the bed.
“Some people get mature before their age because life shows them the worst side of the world at an early stage of life…”#copied[*****]“Was it you behind my dad getting the job?”“What?”“Yes or no, Shishir…” she asked, controlling her rage. She was sure that if he was behind it then she was going to explode on him.“Ojaswi, tell me one thing why would I be behind your dad getting the job? Do you think I am that pathetic to control all your life?”“I was just… “Before she could explain
