TARAKSHA SHARMA

I'm 15 now and Jojo went to college 2 months ago after celebrating his 18th birthday. He went to live in the hostel because of uncle's order. He wanted him to focus completely on his studies.

I miss our conversations.

I miss our smiles.

I miss our jokes.

But most of all,

I miss him.

It doesn't matter how far he is; he is never off my mind.

I try to keep myself busy with the things I do, but every time I pause, I think of him only.

Although we talk every day but still, I miss our late-night face-to-face conversations and then sleeping on his shoulder.

I know people think that I am just 15 so I am just exaggerating my feelings. But I know, what I feel for him is more than liking, something very intense, something for eternity.

Missing him every day makes my heart feel heavy but I know that every day is a day closer to seeing him again.

I'm jealous of people who get to see him every day!!!

But never mind! Now, it's time for our call. For the past 2 months, we talk at this time. But today Jojo didn't call, maybe he would be busy with his studies.

So, I called him.

"Hello?" A female voice answered my call

My heart stopped for a moment; it was like I just got a bullet in my chest. Jojo is with someone else? that too a girl, at almost midnight?

"Hello?" The voice again asked, breaking my chain of thoughts

After controlling myself "Hello! Can I talk to Jojo... I...mean Abhimaan" I said

"He is busy right now!" she said rudely adding salt to my wounds.

Busy? At this time? With her?

"Shru who's there?" Jojo asked from the background

" Don't know, some girl" that girl said boringly

"Hello?" This time my Jojo said

"hello" I said trying very hard to control my tears

"Oh, Tara! You didn't sleep yet?" He asked

"No, I was waiting for your call" I replied

"Oh, I am sorry. I was busy with assignments. Then, I thought you must be sleeping by now" He explained

"Ohh.." I said not knowing what more to say

"Shru leave me" he whispered

And my tears came again thinking about what they must be doing.

"Tara? You there?" he asked

"Yes" I replied choking on my voice

"Abhi come fast na!" that girl again called him

"Tara, I will talk to you later. Ok?? Bye!" He said

"Bye! Good ni..." before I could say anything, I saw the call was already ended.

With that, I sat on my bed hugging my knees close to my chest and letting my tears fall freely.

I love him so much.
Yes! I love him.

But maybe for him, I was always that little girl.
