It was morning time. Nyra was sleeping in her room, but her sleep was a little restless. Some memories from the night and strange thoughts kept coming into her mind again and again. She was unable to sleep peacefully, so her sleep kept breaking repeatedly.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes.
She kept looking at the ceiling for a while.
Then suddenly she remembered—
"School!"
She immediately sat up in shock.
Her heart started beating fast because today was the first day of school.
From outside, her best friend Liora's voice could be heard.
"Nyraaa! Hurry up, it's getting very late!"
Nyra immediately got out of bed and started getting ready quickly. Her hands were slightly trembling because it was the first day and she was already late.
Within a few minutes, she got ready and came outside.
Liora was standing outside, a little irritated and trying not to laugh.
"You are late again!" Liora said.
Nyra gave a small guilty smile. "Sorry... I couldn't wake up early."
Liora held her hand. "Come fast, otherwise the teacher will scold us on the first day itself."
Both of them were best friends since childhood. Their friendship was so strong that they never hid anything from each other. They shared everything, whether it was small happiness or big tension.
While walking on the road, Liora said, "I feel today is going to be interesting."
Nyra gave a small smile, but her mind was a little different. She didn't understand whether she was nervous or excited.
Both of them reached school.
The school environment was very energetic. New students, new teachers, and new dreams were visible everywhere.
In the classroom, all students were already seated. The teacher entered and made an important announcement.
"Students, after a few days there will be a function in the school."
A little excitement spread in the class.
The teacher continued:
"In this function, juniors will be paired with seniors and there will be a couple dance."
As soon as this was announced, whispering started in the class.
Some were happy, some were nervous.
Liora immediately got excited.
"Wow! Couple dance! It will be so fun!"
Nyra also gave a small smile. She also felt this experience would be different.
After some time, all students were called to the practice hall.
The scene there was big. Both juniors and seniors were present. Teachers were sitting on the side and observing everything.
On the stage, a senior boy and girl were anchoring and explaining the rules.
In the middle of the hall, there was a table with a box placed on it.
Inside the box, there were many small slips of paper.
The anchor announced:
"Every student will pick one slip. The name written on it will decide their partnership."
As soon as this was said, the atmosphere became even more exciting.
Some students were nervous too.
Nyra slowly looked towards Liora.
Liora whispered, "It will be fun or a disaster... don't know."
Nyra slightly laughed.
One by one, students started going forward and picking slips.
The hall was filled with suspense.
Some faces showed happiness, some showed shock.
Nyra became a little nervous.
"Go, now you go," Liora gently pushed her.
Nyra slowly walked forward.
She put her hand inside the box... and picked a slip.
Her heart was beating fast.
She opened the slip.
The name written on it was:
She opened the slip...
The name written on it was:
LIYAN
Nyra froze for a second.
"Liyan...?"
She couldn't understand how this name came in front of her.
Then the anchor's voice came:
"Call Liyan!"
When Nyra looked forward...
A boy was standing there.
Normal looking, calm, and with a slightly serious expression.
But the moment Nyra saw him, something stopped inside her.
He was the same boy she had seen before in an unexpected moment.
His name was Liyan.
Nyra's expressions froze.
There was confusion in her eyes, shock, and a strange nervousness too.
"Is this... really him?" she thought to herself.
Liora shook her and asked, "What happened?"
But Nyra couldn't say anything.
She just kept looking at that boy.
Everyone in the hall was forming their partnerships.
But for Nyra, everything had stopped.
