Past- 11 Months Ago

The students began to talk and whisper amongst themselves, "What's wrong with Hritia? She looks so gloomy and her head's always down!".

Life and the People around her made her that way.

Hritia Carimova, an introvert with a broken heart quietly listened as they commented about her. Lucky for her, the school where she was had no ragging, so life was a little easier for her. She had a small circle of friends, but not one was close enough to disclose off the thoughts that weighed her fragile heart. Low marks and a quiet personality, she would often get beaten up by her mother at home whenever she stops by.

One early morning, as Hritia was sleeping in the class, the class' top student Tsüha Jarikhop turned up as he poked her twice and said, "You're such a sleepy head!".

To Hritia's surprise it was the class' topper.

Though they were never in the same Section, they knew each other since Grade 2 through their small participations in School functions.

Tsüha then asked for Hritia's phone number, saying he knows that Hritia wasn't like this in the past and though he's from section A, and she a B, he would hear about her good academic performance. The dead Hritia then reluctantly shares her contact with another of her type yet a little more extroverted than her.

The big guys who rules the last bench then arrived, then some naughty classmates , and one by one the empty class got filled and their little conversation ended there.

At home, Hritia once again threw herself on the bed as she stared at the ceiling reminiscing her past, she had no idea what to do, no guidance, none to share , for her only close person betrayed her and passed away before they could resolve the things between them. She had lost faith in everything; She was just an empty body. Late night,11:58 pm, while Hritia was down with her lyrics ( Her own song), she received a message from Tsüha asking what homework the math teacher assigned them and if she had completed or if she finds it difficult , he would love to help her. She text him the questions and that was all. They both had a problem to continue texting.

Next morning, as Hritia entered the class, she saw some group of popular girls, surrounding Tsüha asking for the Math homework. She could notice Tsüha's discomfort but could do nothing. She just sat down on her bench. The annoyed Tsüha who saw her turning away suddenly grabbed his note and went up to Hritia and said,"Didn't you say you needed my note? Here take it. Take your time to copy it down!". Hritia watched him with a surprised look as those girls watched her with jealousy.
