50 Percent

Hard work is the reason behind every success and so does here. Nick has succeeded in breaking the stone walls of Maria’s heart. The heart which beats as TOPPER, TOPPER instead of lub dub started murmuring Nick, Nick, Nick…..

Handsome look, costly dressings rarely mean anything to Maria. However his childish activities to get a glimpse of Maria, his excitement when she smiles back was all she loves. His hard work continued for months and gets exposed by semester results. He is the topper in his class. Ahhhhh! Something unexpected. Though he is intelligent, he always maintained his mediocre level. His newly acquired position worked as a catalyst and she is infront of him saying “Congrats”.

Gathering all the energies and wishes from his friends he went to girl’s hostel the same evening. He went to give sweets to her. Girls hostel was constructed in such a way that one has to climb down few steps to reach the main gate. It’s for security purpose. By the time he reached the restricted area, a sweet voice touches the string of his heart. Maria was standing near the gate in her pink hostel dress. Her face was glowing, may be because she is in love with me. At the moment she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. God, I love her.

Suddenly a loud voice came…..Aaaaaaaa……..Nick fell down from the steps. He was dreaming while climbing down. He was lying unconscious at the main gate of girl’s hostel with few drops of blood from his head. He brought laddoo for Maria and the sweet was not round anymore. It was scattered on the floor in its original powder form. Today everyone saw someone falling in love. Nick was hospitalised for three days.

 Her mind is completely captured by Nick and only Nick. Her days start with Nick and ends with Nick. No, no, no it’s only in her mind. She had always kept her heart away from so called love. Because she knows whatever may be the form of love, it is painful to be separated from the person whom you love. But she could not shield her four chambered vital organ from Nick’s true love (as she thought).  For her, he is the most caring person next to her parents. He is the person who makes her laugh freely. He is the person who tells her life is important. He is the person who boosts her to live the life. Simply he made her life beautiful and she feels beautiful infront of him.
