______________________________________________________
It was the last day of Summer vacation, and Tomorrow was the first day of the new session. Sachi was nervous and excited at the same time for her new session. So she decided to film her Last Year of school in camera as a short documentary.
Sachi was in her room, lying on her cozy bed, mobile in her hand chatting with her best friend Vani Kapoor.
On Phone ๐ฑ:
Vani: Yarr Sachu, Kal school ka first day hai,main to bohot excited hoon.
Sachi: Aur main nervous bhi hoon aur excited bhi..
Vani: Hein?! Excited samjh mein aata hai, par tu nervous kyu hain?
Sachi: Aree ab kalse padhai shuru hogi, naya kuch sikhne milega na!
Vani: Abeyy!! Aaj vacations ka last din hai at least aaj ke din to padhai ke baare mein mat soch!!
Sachi: Okay thik hai...๐ญ๐ญ
Vani: Chal ab ro mat.. Vaise kal maja aayega!!
Sachi: Haan.. Chal ab Byee.. soja ab varna kal class mein nind aati rahegi tujhe ๐๐
Vani: Haan behen soja...Romantic books ke sapne bhi dekhne honge n tujhe ๐คญ๐
Sachi: Abeyy chup kar !! Sapne thodi dekhti hoon bass padhti hoon books! ๐
Vani: Ha ha pata hain ! ๐๐คซ
Sachi: So ab byeeย VeeBee ๐๐๐ป
Vani: Haa Byeee Meri Pyaari Sachu ๐๐.
Sachi smiled looking at her dramatic yet sweet best friend. She kept her phone and got up from her bed and went to her study table which was set near the bed. In front of the study table a window was situated from which she could see a nice view of her colony.
She took her diary out and started writing about her day. She loved to write, she has been writing her diary since 8th class. She even told this to Vani but she was too lazy to write, she wrote for some time but then left writing.
Sachi's Doddle Diary:
Hey Diary.. This is me Sachi.. Aaj summer vacation ka last din tha. Aaj maine bohot enjoy Kiya, Cartoons dekhe (Shinchan and Doraemon) , movies bhi dekhi... Mummy to ghussa kar rahi thi par Papa ne sambhal liya hehe...
Ab kal school ka pehla din hai pata nahi kal kya hoga.. I think sab achha hi hoga.. Kalse new session which is 12th.. Nervous hoon par excited bhi hoon.. Kalse ekdam jor daar padhai shuru, grades maintain karne hai na..
Iss summer vacation Nani ke yaha bhi gayi thi jo ki maine pichle kuch pages par likha hai.. Ab vapas kab jaaungi pata nahi.. Bass yeh aakhri saal school ka achhe se jaaye aur sab achha perform kare academically and non academically bhi..
Aur haan mujhe ek idea aaya hai ki main meri khudki documentary banau.. Jo camera papa ne laake diya hai uspe ab har roj main school ke baare mein ho ya baaki kuch chizo ke baare ho vo sab kahungi.. to Diary hamara sath yahi tak tha but phir kabhi kaam pada to aa jaungi likhne vapas..
Soo Byee Diaryyy.. โค๏ธ
She closed her diary and kept it in a drawer which was specially kept for her all diaries... She took the camera which was bought by her father and kept it over the small book shelf which was kept over her desk.
She opened the camera and clicked on the record button...
๐ธ
"Hiii..."ย Sachi waved at the camera and tucked a stand of her hair behind her ear.
"Main hoon Sachi Verma.. umm aur maine aaj se decide Kiya hai ki main apni khudki ek documentary banau..... taaki jab main badi ho jaau to main dekh saku ki maine mere school ka last year kaise spend Kiya.."ย She paused and then again spoke.
"This is.. um.. the first entry for my memory project. Class 12. Last year of school.."
She looked around her room โ walls covered with photos, a pile of textbooks waiting to be opened โ and smiled a little nervously at the camera.
"I don't want to forget anything. So tomorrow.. I'm going to film it all.."
" Cut.. " She whispered and With a small sigh, Sachi slid her thumb back over the switch. The blinking red light stilled, the screen went dark, and the lens shutter clicked shut.
๐ท
She kept her camera back at its place, switched off the lights of her room and went to bed to sleep..
______
Sunlight slipped through the thin curtains of Sachiโs room, painting the walls in soft gold. Her alarm had already gone off twice; she lay sprawled on the bed, the hand-camera resting on her desk like a little black secret.
From the kitchen drifted the sound of her mother clanging steel tumblers and the smell of chai and buttered toast. A scooter horn blared somewhere on the street below, reminding her this wasnโt a lazy vacation morning anymore โ it was the first day of Class 12.
Sachi sat up, pushing her hair out of her face, and glanced at the camera. "Day one,"ย ย she murmured to herself. She picked it up, flipped the switch on, and the little green light blinked awake.
๐ธ
Holding it at armโs length she grinned sleepily into the lens. "Good morning, future me," she said, her voice still raspy. "Aaj tumhare school ka pehla din hai to late nahi hona hai.. Fatafat ready ho jaati hoon."
๐ท
She quickly switched off the camera, kept it in its place and went to get fresh.
After a few minutes she came out of the bathroom wearing her school uniform. She took the comb from her dressing table, slid the camera inside her bag and went downstairs.
Her motherโs voice floated from the kitchen, "Sachi beta, Nashta tayar hai!"
" Coming, Ma!" Sachi called back while descending the stairs.
She went to the dinning table to have her breakfast, she kept the bag on a nearby chair and sat on the other chair.
"Good morning,Papa" She wished good morning to her father who was reading the newspaper. He looked up at his daughter and said,
"Good morning beta, aajse new session start." He said smiling, she gave him a nod.
"Beta par tu aise school jaayegi?"ย He asked looking at her hair. Sachi's brows furrowed, she touched her hair and she realised her hair are still not tied into two ponies..
"Areyy nahi nahi papa.. Aise thodi jaaungi.. Mummy.. Jaldi aao na aur mere baal bana do.." She called her mother loudly, her mother came with a plate and a glass of milk..
"Areyy aa rahi hoon.. itna jor se chillane ki kya jarurat thi.." Her mother said while keeping the plate and glass on the dining table. Sachi looked at the glass filled with milk, she made a face..
"Areyy yarr mummy, main ab bachhi thodi hoon, badi ho gayi hoon.. Yeh dhoodh vagera to bachho ke liye hota hai..mujhe nahi chahiye.. " She said being annoyed.
" Areyy beta dhoodh to kisi bhi umar mein pina chahiye.. Chal ab jaldi finish kar nashta aur la main tere Baal bana deti hoon.." Her mother said while taking the comb which was kept on the table.
" Aree yarr Mumma..--" She stopped in mid way looking at her father who gave her warning with his eyes only. He loved his daughter and always fulfilled her wish but he knows where to show strictness.
She took the glass and drank the milk, while her mother combed her hair into two braids. She quickly wore her socks, took her bag, said bye to her mother and father and went to the bus stop which was near her home. Their school bus always comes there to pick them up.
She went to the bus stop, but the bus still did not arrive. 2-3 students were also present there waiting for the bus. So she sat on the waiting bench. She looked at her wrist watch and it was 7:30 AM and the school starts at 8:00 AM, so there was time. She tapped her feet on the ground, waiting for the bus. The bus came and stopped at the stop.
Everyone started entering the bus, Sachi also entered the bus, She saw her best friend Vani waiting for her who had reserved the seat for her, as always. They both waved at each other and Sachi went to her seat. She kept her bag on her lap, the same as Vani did.
"Good morning Sachu.. Aaj kya dekha sapne mein?"ย Vani asked her playfully earning a smack from Sachi on her forehead.
"Chup Kar.. Kuch bhi nahi dekha maine sapne mein.. "ย Sachi said to her.
The bus stopped at the next bus stop and students started to enter.
"Vaise tu bata.. Krish ka kya scene hai?" Sachi asked Vani with a playful grinn..
" Abeyy chup kar.. ham dono bestfriends hai okay.. tu kuch jyada hi soch rahi hai.. " Vani said hiding her smile.
" Ha ha pata hai sabko pata hai.. Tere laal laal gaal hi sab bata rahe hain.."ย Sachi said teasingly, while Vani pushed her slightly but as the bus jerked a little as it pulled away from the stop, Vani's slight push got converted into a strong push.
"Areyy!!"ย Sachi stumbled forward, lost her balance, and accidentally bumped into the tall boy standing in the aisle.
Before anyone could react The boy pitched sidewaysโdirectly landing on the lap of the other boy who was sitting opposite Sachi and Vani.. Sachi and Vani looked at the scene in front of them.
The boy sitting held the other boy from his waist, and the boy who fell held the seat for support and the scene from the other angle was looking as if they were hugging... or even worse.
Someone at the back snorted, the whole burst out laughing, even Sachi and Vani started laughing.. Soon the tall boy got up from the other boy's lap and stood properly..
"Bhaii Sambhal!!" the seated boy said, Half laughing, half horrified.
"Abeyy Devesh !! Tu pagal vagal hai kya.." another voice cameโa lean boy with messy hair came rushing,ย "Kaha ladko ki god mein gir raha !!"ย ย the lean boy started scolding the boy who fell..
"Abeyy nahi be.. Yeh ladki ne dhakka mara to gir gaya.. " The tall guy spoke while pointing at Sachi.
"Oo Hello, Dhakka galti se laga tha, Sorry uske liye.." Sachi stood up and said quickly while her cheeks heated due to embarrassment. Vani bit her lip, suppressing her laugh.
" Haa isse galati se hua vo.. actually maine dhakka diya tha isko par thoda jor se lag gaya dhakka"ย Vani said while controlling her laugh.
"Ha ha samjh gaya..." The messy hair guy smirked looking at his friend and dragged his friend to Their seat.
The boy who fell glared at Sachi and spoke,"Tum to.. Dekh lunga tumhe badmein.."
They both went back to take their seat.. Sachi rolled her eyes at the boy while he shot her a glare..
"Yeh log naye hai lagta bus mein.. pehli baar dekha.. " Sachi said to Vani who was thinking of something.
"Kya soch rahi hai?" Sachi asked Vani.
"Yahi ki yeh jo ladka piche se aaya.. Vo Rishi hai na.. Kasturi ka boyfriend?"ย Vani asked Sachi, who gave her a confusing look.
"Hein?! Rishi Khanna? Vahi na Class-B wala..? " Sachi asked Vani
" Haa haa vahii.." Vani said, they both turned back to look carefully at Rishi.. They both looked at him with narrow eyes, his eyes fell on them, they quickly looked forward..
They both gave a nod to each other..
" Haa yeh to vahi hai.. Kasturi ko batana padega ki uska boyfriend ab hamari bus mein aata hai.."ย Vani said receiving a high-five from Sachi who was suppressing her laugh..
Meanwhile at the back seat.
" Kya din hai.. pehla din hai aaj school ka aur yeh drama ho gaya.."ย Devesh said while ruffling his hair, clearly being frustrated.
" Abeyy Devesh, yeh dono ladkiya apne taraf kyu dekh rahi hai... aur dekh ab to hass bhi rahi hai.."ย Rishi said eyeing Sachi and Vani who were busy laughing.
" Chord na yarr.. vaise bhi inke attitude se to lagta hai yeh A class wali hai.." Devesh said staring at Sachi.
" Haa.. lag to vahi raha hai.."ย Rishi said with a nod.
" Achha hai aise ladke apne class mein nahi hai.. Dekha nahi kaise kar raha tha vo ladka jo gir gaya.."ย Sachi said remembering Devesh's face.
" Haan na yarr.. "ย Vani said.
But inhe kya pata hai ki yeh dono ab inke sath , ek class mein padhenge vo bhi pura saal..
To ab kaise bitega in logo ka pura saal specially Sachi ka?
