Fragile Love....part 1 ( First sight)
#writewithbunny

Everyone has that one person in their lives whom they want but can't have...whom they love but can't express...
For me, Sameer Shetti, that person was Nidhi Agarwal...
I first saw Nidhi in my coaching institute in 11th standard. I was dozing off in the last corner of the last bench when my friend Pawan whispered " Sam, look at that girl"
It was Pawan's old habit to fall for beauties left and right. But the girl he pointed at this time...was... different. Shoulder length straight hair, fair complexion with a touch of darkness, sparkling green eyes with a little smile showing her pearly whites. Not more than 5 feet in height, a simple red shirt paired with black jeans. "May l come in sir?" Oh...What a melodious voice...If love at first sight had a face..it would definitely be mine.

"Sam, l know l told you to look... but it's been 5 mins now. Stop staring weirdo, she won't date a creep like you hahahaha" Pawan whispered again.

Yea ...right..though l knew Pawan said that as a joke...he wasn't completely wrong. That girl was way out of my league. I later found out she was my classmate as well and her name was "Nidhi" .."Nidhi Agarwal".. little did l know that this name would hold a thousand memories for me... memories l can't get rid of even if l want to... memories l want to bury at the bottom of my fragile heart.

Fast forward to 2 months...
As expected, the green eyed beauty "Nidhi" became the most popular fella in our class...not just looks, she was smart, confident, excellent in both academics and sports. And on top of it, a humble nature paired with a unique personality. Nidhi had it all. A pure definition of what others call "perfect"... Guys wanted to have her, girls wanted to be like her... while l just wanted to have a glance at her. Just one look at her would be more than enough to make my day. She became the reason of my 100% attendance.
Well sadly, not just me...she was the reason of almost half of the guy's full attendance. With time, her fanboys increased too..even seniors started showing interest in her...her desk would be the most crowded during lunch and our class would echo in her lovely giggles.
Though Nidhi seemed like an open book, her love life was always kept private which made me even more curious. I stalked her on every social media platform but couldn't catch a clue of her mysterious love life. At last, l gave up hope... but as it's said ... god's mill grinds slowly but surely.
