NOT EVERYONE IS YOUR FRIEND.

After schooling, comes the most awaited and essential part of a student’s life, i.e., college life. Remember how we entered school for the first time? Crying and yelling not to go inside but were dragged away from our parents for a few hours. It turned to be a jail for us back then but slowly the friends we made there and the teachers made us feel like home and then home seemed boring. The last day of school and yet again, we were in tears; tears of departure from each other. Yes, even I cried but then I later realised that all the tears which did flow were real but from whom I cried, they weren’t real. The friends I made were double faced (few were exceptions as still date we share an amazing bond). I cursed myself for making such friends but then I thought, “abhi toh college baki hai, for sure I’ll find some good friends and make amazing memories.”
Then the day came, I stepped into my college for the first time and things turned out pretty well. I made some good friends and life was smooth going, enjoyed every bit of college life and then slowly things started changing. Groups started forming.  I started feeling left out because I was left out. The ones I considered being my close and good friends, started walking off and keeping secrets from me. Well, then it broke me down into little pieces, away from family and then now being treated in such a way that made me feel like I’m unwanted.

It was then I decided to keep myself away from them, detach away and let them be happy. I can find my happiness in other things around. I do have some very special friends and they’ll never leave my side and I’m happy for that. Who would want to be surrounded by fake and double faced so-called-friends? Of course not me anymore; that’s not my cup of tea anymore. I’d rather prefer a single shot of vodka over that cup of tea and be happy with my little and compact group of friends. I do have some amazing friends and super amazing seniors at college and even I can list them but I won’t. I would keep it to myself. 
We learn a lot as we grow up and these were small yet very meaningful lessons for me. At least the ones who consider me close to them don’t approach me only in their needs but stand by my side when I’m in need of some help.
“NOT EVERYONE IS YOUR FRIEND, BUT WHO IS WILL PROVE IT THEMSELVES.”

..AND HE MADE ME STRONGER THAN EVER.

“Stop crying Ashna, he was not the one for you.” Said Tanaya. “No Tanu, it’s not about that. He cheated me for no reason and I trusted him blindly. He had broken my trust earlier too, but I trusted him like a fool for the fourth time.” I said and started crying again. It was my mistake to trust Abhishek blindly, had I not done that, today I would not have been crying. My friends did warn me for loving him, they told me that this guy is not good but I was madly in love with him. This time he left me just because of a misunderstanding caused by an online brother, the one now I regret calling a brother. Had he not been a part of my life, I would have been happy with Abhishek. But as said, things happen for good. I wish Abhishek had some sense and solved the matter with me, we would have been together. I was into depression just because of him. Blades became my best friend which helped me hurt myself by cutting my hands. I knew this was not right but I was not the old Ashna, I was the ...

I MISS YOU MY SUPERHERO.

“Papa, Papa, Papa. We’ll go to Aquatica (water park) this Sunday, please?” I said. “Ok beta, we’ll surely go.” Replied papa and I hugged him. It was Saturday afternoon when papa came upstairs from the shop for the lunch. He took his lunch and a small nap and went back to the shop downstairs. After he went down, he had a sudden pain in his chest. The employees took him to his cabin and made him lie down. The condition worsened and then the employee decided to call and inform the family members. He called and said, “Ma’am, sir is sick. He is having a serious pain in his chest.” After hearing this, Deepa, my mother ran downstairs with the hot water bag. Things were normal for a while but again he felt the pain and he was unable to bear it. Seeing this, the employees suggested my mother to call the ambulance and take him to the hospital. The ambulance came and papa was taken DSP (Durgapur Steel Plant) main hospital. The weather then turned out to be rainy and the storm started. It w...
