Lost Friend....
It seems very strange that it has been so many years that she has passed but I don't wanna accept that she is no more. This story is an important part of my life, but this story is true.

Talked about when I was studying in class 6. The session had just started, I was very happy to study in the new class, I already studied in the same school, that's why had many friends, the first day was in class, I was talking to friends sitting in my seat. Then a voice came, can I sit here? I saw a simple girl standing, yes you can sit, I said. What's your name? I asked. Avantika Singh and you? she asked. Akshita ,I said. Our friendship started with such a recognition,In a few days we became very good friends. Reading, playing, sharing lunch with each other. She was very funny,Was a different kind of girl. We used to have lots of fun in class, used to listen to jokes when we were teaching, and I used to find my laughter control very difficult, and she used to laugh so loud that teachers used to make us stand in class.She used to say that she likes my voice very much. When teachers were not in class, I used to sing a song on her instructions. I still laugh a lot when I think that day, there was a gallery in our school in front of the bathroom where I used to teach her dance. We were mad at once.I was the one of good artist of my class, when Mam give us to make something, she always says Akshita would make it.
If I refused, she would pretend to be angry.Three years had passed, she was my good friend in class 6,7,8. I had many friends. If I talked to someone else, she would get angry. She would never say but it could seen on her face. When we were at 9, one day I saw that she was drinking some medicine at lunch time. I asked, why are you drinking this medicine? What has happened to you? Nothing yrr.She did not want to tell.
When I asked her again and again she told that she has stones in the gallbladder. But there is nothing to worry, the doctor has said that the medicine will melt the stone, she said. Many such days passed.

Who knew what would happen next? We would play, have fun, as time passed. Our friendship had been four years. In class ten, she initially came to school for a month. Then she started absent. I did not know anything at all. I do not know what has happened she is not coming. All this was going on in my mind every day. It is found out that her operation of stone has been done because of this she is not coming. Then one day I saw her elder sister, she was coming out of the office to meet the
principal ma'am. I asked Didi, Avantika! why can't she come?

What has happened to her? She became very calm, suddenly her eyes filled with tears. She said that Avantika is no more,babu.I do not understand what to say. A friend with whom to spend the whole time and then one day to hear the news of her death. I came home and cried a lot. Avantika's sister and my sister used to study in the same class, so my sister also came to know about this. She told me that the operation had taken place but it was well done but suddenly it all went away.She died in 2016. Today, when I look at her picture, I feel very strange, like she is looking at me.She was very good at heart, maybe that's why God called her so soon.
I remember once when we attended the cultural program, we wore a sari for the first time. There are many such memories in my mind. I remember once on my birthday she gave me a stone, I did not understand that why did she gave this. Maybe she wanted to tell me something with that gift, could not understand at that time.Now ,she is a part of cosmos,a star shining in the sky.
