" It's so hot today I wish summer naver existed " said shyam who paddled through the road on his way to his school.
It was written with big texts [ BANBOL HIGH ]
This is the school shyam studies in. His grades were average in almost every subject, just enough for his a passing score.
He parked his red shiny fully modified VESCO Drift 24 T Cycle, after which he walked slowly as he sat down in his class.
27th of July 8:53AM { School Life }
His seat was behind all, a place in the corner way afar from the windows though. Though that also meant his safety from the summer gaze.
He stared out the door as the teacher walked in.
A man, old at that. No beard with short, very short hair with white outlines. His eyes looked sharp though his movement was a bit off
[ ganja khaiya he. ? ]
Wearing a Black coat he said " Everybody take your seats " It did not seem like a request but an order. An order so strict if not obeyed then can lead to serious punishment such as standing outside with a bucket of water on each hand.
Everyone sat down and class begun.
27th of July 12:34PM { lunch }
Shyam walked down the cafeteria with food on his plate. Found a nice little table with no other students there he made it his territory until someone decided to join him. " Well, so the king of loneliness is alone yet again it seems " said a boy who wore the same outfit as shyam.
He was attractive unlike shyam whose personality is unknown to even his own father.
The boy who just approached shyam was Karthik, one of shyam's only two friends.
The one other was ananya, she was a biology student. Her knowledge goes beyond the understanding of both shyam and Karthik yet they still manage to get along.
" So did you get to see any hotties this summer? " Asked Karthik while sitting down on the same table as shyam. " Worked all month, thankfully I got the Sundays off " shyam replied.
Though shyam and Karthik were close enough to be called best friends, they barely talked outside school or in phone calls. As shyam spent his free time sleeping or reading manga and novels.
But, Karthik was a volleyball player. He was really good at it as well, though there were better players beside him he still was the setter of banbol high volleyball team.
He had great muscles, and a cute girlfriend who only looked cute from the outside. She would often threaten shyam to leave Karthik as shyam was just an ordinary guy or even less than an average high school student.
She only saw him as someone who held Karthik back. But shyam never told Karthik about what she does or says. As he cared about his friend more than Anything.
If he told Karthik about her, there's a chance he'd break up with her. And she; Karthik's girlfriend. Was doing only what a girlfriend should do, look after their boyfriend.
Shyam and Karthik talked about the things that happened during summer break and went back to their classes once the bell rang.
" I wonder if ananya is dozing off at the biology club again " shyam muttered to himself while staring out the campus window from his seat.
27th of July 4:09PM { after school }
" That's it for today, make sure to do your homework. Safe way home " the teacher said and stepped out of the classroom Shyam packed his stuff and went straight to the biology club.
" Look who's here " said Ananya who seemed to do some experiments with chemicals, in biology club?
Shyam walked closer he sat down on a chair, the club had only few members and Ananya was one of the only active members.
She'd come here and spent her free time whenever she could, shyam, ananya and Karthik were childhood friends. That was also the reason why ananya had a crush on Karthik, though. She spoke too late or didn't speak at all, she still regrets not telling him how she feels about him before he got a girlfriend. A real one...
" You know, something very odd happened to me in yesterday's dream " said shyam who stared at what ananya was doing.
" If you are here to talk about how many big boobs you touched because of your ethereal flux phenomenon please don't " she said while spinning round round with her 360° chair.
" No, it's something even better. " Shyam said trying to remember what exactly happened in that dream. " So, bigger boobs? " Asked ananya. " Nah. " Replied shyam.
" But get this. " He picked one of her snacks and spoke. " I saw this one girl who talked to me as if she was a real person "
" Stop eating my snacks " ananya said while giving shyam a death stare. " I will " said shyam. " Alright " ananya replied " not like I was ever able to stop you "
She once again began to combine different chemicals with while smiling like a witch.
As if she wasn't making a solution but was mixing up some potions instead.
" About that dream, did she say you were a fake ? " Asked ananya. Shyam was surprised, though he did not let it show on his face. He said " yeah. Is that related? "
" Or course it is " said Ananya. " You were in crystal dreams " she explained. " She said it as well " shyam wishpered. " Did she now ? " Ananya muttered to herself.
" She is probably a hallucination you are seeing by watching too much hentai at nights. Try to avoid it " ananya suggested in a funny way, but shyam did not like they way she said it. " I can read whatever I what, but I am sure she wasn't from the hentai's I watched " shyam said while going towards the doors.
" Well, I am off you nerd " said shyam while standing near the wooden slide door of the biology club. The sun shined through the opened windows and for some reason, ananya glowed with the mix of orange and yellow.
She looked like the most attractive woman to ever exist in this entire school. " Wow, what a compliment. Bye " she replied.
Shyam returned home right after leaving school, the only stop he made was at the manga store. ( Not for a hentai though )
July 27 8:56 PM
Shyam was asleep when suddenly he heard his phone ring. He got a email, at first he ignored it thinking it was just one of the scammers.
But his gaze stuck on the one name showed above the email.
Sender → raitha.noobmail.com
He stared at the email for a second before opening it. He was scared, excited and somewhat happy as well.
" Don't ask me how I got your noobmail, anyway. Should we talk again tonight? " The text had made shyam question himself.
" Does she like me or something? " Shyam muttered to himself and sent a reply. " Heck nah " without hesitation he sent it through.
Fortunately he did not get any emails again, but what happened next almost made him wanna dance.
He was once again thrown in on the crystal dreams. " Let me sleep a day atleast " shyam whispered.
" What do you mean by ' heck nah ' !? "
She said Staring at shyam with her sharp starry yellow eyes. Her silver hair and silver sari wove like a angel would.
Her princess like expressions would make any man want to spend his entire life with her, or for her. But shyam ? He just wanted to sleep is all.
" Exectly what it sounds like " he replied while trying to go back. " So am I not cute enough for you ? " She said with her hands at back face red and legs straight. As if an idol is doing her signature pose.
Shyam looked at her and sat down " say what you want but If not in reality, I'll just sleep here " shyam said while trying to lay down on the yellowish water.
" Meanie " she whispered. " That I am " shyam replied.
" How did you get my noobmail anyway? " Shyam asked, he was curious. Nobody except his friends and some websites he is logged in knows what his personal noobmail is.
" That's a secret I'd like to keep " she said her fingers at her lips.
" And what about your appearance, how are you changing it anyway everytime? " Shyam asked. The last time he show her, she had blue eyes, red sari and redish hair.
Now it's a yellow sari, silver hair and red starry eyes like an anime character. " I can for some reason change the way I look... "
Shyam closed his eyes for a bit then suddenly opened it just to stare at raitha's boobs. " I didn't make them any bigger " raitha said, noticing shyam's interest.
" Seems like it " he replied " Well, I have school so I am going " shyam said " school life huh ? " Raitha muttered to herself " wish I had one "
For the first time in two days, she looked very sad. Shyam stared at her for a moment " so... You didn't go to school? " Shyam asked out of curiosity. " Not like I didn't want to, I just couldn't. " She said and suddenly everything turned black again.
Shyam, from his past experience knew that it means he is back in reality. But this time, it wasn't morning. It was the same time as when he slept. " Who even is she really? " Shyam wishpered to himself before dozing off to sleep.
