My First Crush.....

I saw her yesterday after so many years. I was going to meet somebody and suddenly a lady came before me and said “Hi Uttam, How are you?”...and I was like dumb completely. I was just staring at her face. Then after a minute, when I regained my senses, I replied her with a smiling face.

I saw her she was looking very beautiful in light orange colour saree (as beautiful as she used to look many years back). Then I saw a man was standing besides her and she introduced him to me as her HUSBAND. I was shocked that when did she marry. She was my primary class Teacher.

I met her first time ,when I was in second standard ,when I rejoined the school after summer vaccations. She was our new teacher. I liked her a lot. When she walked into the class and was introduced to us, my heart skipped a beat. There standing before me was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen and I was instantly in "love"(I guess). After a couple of years of knowing her , I began to develop a big crush on her.I was talking to her most of the time.I used to hope that she would like me as well and was always too afraid to tell her .

The crush started off innocently enough but grew as the months went by. I was called the teacher's pet because she always asked me to clean the chalk boards and hand out papers.I always sat in the first row in her classes and sometimes even removed the other students from their seats to sit there.There were two very beautiful muslim girls in our class, while other boys were fighting to sit with them I, sometimes, gave my seats to boys to sit there just to get myself more close with our teacher.

On one new year I argued with my muma and told her a fake story to just fetch  Rs. 50 from her (which was a big amount for me at that time) just to give a buquet to my favourite teacher which eventually I gave her ( and I reached to her home for this….also a long story..).

But then uddenly she left the school when I was in 5^th class and after that I also left that school. Although occassionly we met for some times but this time I was meeting to her after almost 7 years which is a very long time. I am very happy for her that she is happily married.

She was my first crush and you can not forget your first crush and so am I. As a beautiful saying goes

“It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone - but it takes a lifetime to forget someone”
