AN OLD COIN: A POP UP CHILDHOOD MEMORY ~ Nihar's Blog

Things change over time!

Many days have passed since then. As the value of currency decreases with the introduction of new currencies, Some relationships are just as worthless.

Love in Childhood is the purest form of relationship in human life which left us as a memory. Many of you might have the same experience as me.

Meanwhile, she got married and has become the mother of one child. She is a complete and happy housewife now. Well, my story was not in her personal life. I just wanted to give a transparent view to make you understand the gist. Let's jump into the story now👇.

I found to know, She would come to her own village today. Though you have been enjoying the story but have taken it in the wrong way. This is not a love story🤣. I am not a one-side lover. Like food has no religion, friendship has no gender. friendship can be between anybody and anything.

We were neighbors. Though I was good in study but afraid of going to school and tutorials. This fear is still in me; That never unfollow me. We were in the same class. Most often, she got ready for the classes and used to come to my home to call me for the class.

I was late as always. When she arrived my home, I would get up or brush my teeth. I was forced to go to classes. She often cleans my tiffin boxes after lunch.

I never thought, She is a girl or I am a boy. All I knew was that she was my best friend. I used to go to her home during study hours. My mother thought I was going to her to understand some homework while her mother, on the other hand, thought I was going to bring back my notes or clarify her doubts.

Literally, I used to go there just to pass the study hour. The golden period of this friendship lasts until we joined different schools for the higher study.

Since we took admission to different schools, we barely mate each other.

I don't know why; Might be we reached our puberty. I was becoming an introvert time to time. I could notice some changes in her behavior too.

Though we had fair relationship with our colleagues but never allowed anyone into our friend zone.

Like sunsets slowly, Our friendship started polarizing.

I completed my schooling and took admission to a reputed college of our district while on the other hand, she skipped admission ( I don't know what was the reason.Might be her parents did not want to give her scopes for higher study or she was not interested !).

Anyhow she took admission in a local college next year while I was in 2nd year. Unfortunately she could not continue her education.

I really wanted to know the facts; why she doing so! I was in hostel those days. We could not establish any contact through out.

Later on, I joined degree college on the contrary her career was in complete disarray. A long gap in the relationship dusted it off. I could not muster courage to refresh it nor She. We were pretending like strangers to each other. She might not wanted to clean and restart our friendship.

It was the second year of my Bachelor's degree; I heard her wedding date from a village friend. I know; I was not her lover, still I could not accept that. I felt the goosebump in my body. My heart went out. I still could not believe it.

Preparation for her marriage had been started and she got married at the age of 19 only.

I thought when she invites me to her marriage; I will ask her everything. That would be a great time to listen out her heart but sorry to say; I did not get a call even.

It is been 4 years since she got married. For the first time, I saw her in married Avtar. I felt the same what I felt while I heard her wedding date.

I did not wanted to talk to her but her baby melt my heart down. Really what a cute expressions! I really could not ignore. I tried to be normal but I was unable to pretend for the long time. I left there ASAP. It was our last meet up.
