Since We Met (Completed)

1. Stars and hope

Ria's POV:

New York City: at 12pm

"Seriously, who will do that?" She said.

"Me" I answered with a sarcastic smile. Sarcasm is my plus point.

"Really! Be serious Ria, what if something happens to you and why do you always do crazy things?"

"One sec, what are you calling crazy things?"

"Taking so much risk just for your happiness, just remember there are some persons who really care for you"

"Are you in that some persons?"

"Of course, I am, Don't be silly!"

"Ohh" I muttered plainly.

"What ohh? Listen, I just received your flight tickets, you must go to Mumbai tomorrow evening so stop doing stupid things. Am I clear?" she asked.

"Yeah" I said with a relaxed face. Of course, on the contrary to me, she seemed quite worried.

"what yeah?"

"I meant yes, Aunty"

You guys are definitely asking yourselves what I've done to face my aunty who is that worried about me. All I did was hacking a high activity office's security system to avoid being trapped by its stupid security cameras in their stupid building. Why? Good question. Because it's a building of sixty six floors, it's the ideal place to observe stars!

When I was five, my mom took me to a place where I could look at the wonderful stars. She told me that whenever I feel hopeless, I can look at the stars, make a wish and they'll fulfill my wish and give me hope. Really I don't know what the others could think of it but I consider stars as my hope. I know, it's stupid! Some people do say that. Whatever, I have my own stuffs and own ways. It's time for people to move on from public judgements. No offense to anyone.

Tomorrow evening, I won't be here because I'm going to India and I don't think I'll be here again. I decided to continue my studies in India because my brother Rishiv again had attacks so I must be there with him. But also that's where my mom lived, grew up and finally was dead. It's a sentimental place to me. Once there, I'll live with my oncle's family. Right now, he is looking after my mom's business, her companies and .....me. The fact is I'm the official C.E.O but i'm not interested in these stuffs so I would have let my oncle as the C.E.O if I am 18 but unfortunately I am not.

Don't worry Ria, once you are eighteen, you can do it!

I'm starting my first year in software engineering in IAE, the first and best college in India since 1980. I've chosen this college especially because firstly it's always been a dream for me to study there and secondly there are lots of extra activities. I chose to be there because of my musical interests. I'm keen on music. I can play guitar, piano and keyboard.

God! I'm so lost in my thoughts. Just a quick reminder, I don't believe in gods. So yeah, end of anecdote.

I went to my bedroom to pack my luggage. While packing, I saw an empty box. I can remember that when my mom gave me a chain for my birthday, I used to put it in this wood box but now I don't. I've lost it when I was six in a school trip. I tried my best to find it back. My bad luck, I couldn't get it. Time nor luck, both has never stood by me.

Whatever, I went to sleep because I have a long journey tomorrow. By the way, I am Ria. Ria Mishra. You're gonna love me.

So guys, this is my first book. Hope you like it. I know this chapter was a bit boring, after all it's normal because it's my first book, but from the chapter four, you guys will love it. I'm sorry for the spelling and grammar mistakes (if there are). If you really can't bear my error, you are can leave a comment and I'll definitely correct it.

One last thing, this story is all about love, friendship, family and finally teenagers. There won't be any mature contents...

Thanks for reading...
