Black

-
Black,my favourite,matured colour.
Why don't they like it.
Maybe finding it rude.

But if you see,

But it is a new player 
Still to meet other colours
And at last be black finally.

How can a lady cry for water like this, or why would someone do a loot of water?                While I was gulping down my food, Suj...

Like me there were other girls too who had the same question mark on their faces. We all asked each other and vow promises not to come to school after the break, in this kind of situations we must have some kind of assurance. By this we were bound just by a promise, this was the final thing which made everyone settle down and think what they are going to do after bunking the class.  we all would just sleep; because now we were assured that no one will come. Suddenly, Gunjan, raised her hand and said that she won’t do that. I don’t know why people like Gunjan, find pleasure being hated by others and why do they encourage a group of 40 girls to kick on their faces and throw them out of the class. Why people can’t understand that there should be mutual understanding. Why to be so selfish and put everyone in danger? Just to show off you are the ...
