First love

First love

                Rishab and Riya were playing on the one end of the room on the sofa, they are friends from their childhood, shares all their secrets and they know each other, well. 

While playing he starts to admire her words, her elegance tone, and the accent of the language, everything turned amazing he starts to fell for her suddenly all at a minute. 

His eyes widened, the face looked more pretty and brighter ever, Riya could feel something is changed with him but she couldn't recognize and she started noticing his attitudes, behaviors and questions everything to him, not too seriously.

But even rishab couldn't analyze his own behaviors and changes but everything turned out beautiful to him, no words to express his feels but except to feel that, all odd situations went through him very lightly, his mind, heart, thinking power, all floated in the air like a weightless peacock's feather, he visited her every day and gazed her with eternal happiness. 

he was not in normal state all of these days, he spent his time thinking about her, her naughty things, memories, words, her style, looks, her favorites, interests and started stalking her.

But he is not aware of himself and his world!... 

This continued for one month of their holidays after their schooling. 

One day to his surprise Riya, visited him all over a sudden, rishab was excited that she come to his place and he thought the angel visited him and his place would turn out to be the vibrant of positives.

rishab greeted and welcomed her. She felt comfortable and he noticed the envelope on her hand that she carried with a little confusion. 

Riya initiated the conversation stating that she got a scholarship from another university so she would be leaving within two days to another country. 

he was stunned with her words, she received a call from her dad and she left the place. 

But he couldn't take this lightly. He haven't slept the whole night, thinking of this. The day went very bad to him but he didn't give up, he decided to confess his feelings to her and face the consequences between friendship and love.

After midday, he went to her house but she was not around there and her dad stated that she went to her favorite spot, but dad had no idea about the place and what is her favorite spot is about located.

But he got a hit that should be the mountain near the bank of the river, where Riya said that would be the best place she would have been ever in her lifetime. 

And yes, it is correct. She is at the top of the mountain, that gives the full view of the city, a small buildings, a flow of water that made a pavement between the city, tiny people moving around depicts the group of ants roaming in search of food. the clouds looked like a blanket that covers the whole city.

It was an evening, where sunsets to rest in its garden. 

A big red rounded planet sets at one side-emitting the red colored paint into the blue sky turns as a red border to the blue clouds, birds are flying around the unlimited high sky with its folks, a black colored blanket is yet to come to cover the city to shower with the chillness of night and the moon to turn as night lamp of the country.

Finally he reached the mountain and the Riya is sitting over the small rock at the edge on the top mountain and feeling the fresh, soothing chilled air, he came and sat behind her but haven't spoke any words. 

He was scared of confessing his love where she is her friend from childhood and he could even lose her for his attitude and feel towards her, but the truth cannot be hidden, one or the other day it reaches her.

He took a deep breath with all of his courage and confidence, put the first word out of his mouth calling out Riya. 

She immediately turned and gave a look at him, he was more tensed, his heartbeat raised to the hell at the moment, he started sweating around the head and face. Finally he said the word immediately without the second thought "I Love You".

She gave a look at him, very casually and placed her soft head at his shoulders, held his hands with her and said "I know that", he was shocked to hear that. 

She with the pause confessed that she too loves him with all over her heart. 

The moment he heard that, his face turned more brighten, his heart becomes normal in its beats and he was floating like a balloon in the air with happiness.

They just sat there for a while without any other words. 

Silence flooded them. 

After a while, they returned to their homes. 

Riya said that she is leaving and will be back at the weekends to be with her family. He just said "okay" with his whole heart and without any worries or hesitations.

The years passed by, Rishab was about 75 years old recalling the moment of his confession with his wife Riya, both sitting at the top of the same mountain at the beautiful evening.
