At first impression: “She’s really shy”, “Mumuksha should talk more often”, “She’s great but should talk to us more”
We had been in that dilemma for a month, not only us but as well as 36 other students and all the teachers. Is it the same Molly (nickname) we saw just last month we questioned to ourselves after the summer holidays. The truth was that we had never seen the real side of her. When we saw it, it was the biggest shock we had received that year. Indeed it was the same Molly standing on top of the chair singing Pichhle Saat Dinon Mein Maine Khoya Kabhi Khud Pe Hansa Main, Aur Kabhi Khud Pe Roya! Nana Na Na Na Nana Na Na Na!
Our History:
This time it did not begin in 7th grade and thankfully I was no longer the new kid. All of us had passed to the new class we were now 8th graders. The new kid was now Mumuksha Bharti. I remember saying ‘Hi’ to her and asking her new school, she was very happy that day I had no idea why at that time, but I soon realized that to be happy was her nature. Sneha Nanavati was the first person of our group to actually sit next to her and make contact with her. All of us were too busy in our selves. Slowly we learnt that she was the most intelligent of all of us, she had done IGCSE when were doing CBSE she was a year ahead of us. She kept interrupting the science teacher and asking her questions of higher years. She became a really good friend of Aaryama Somayaji because they lived near by. Gradually she got introduced to our entire group.
MuMuksha, Me, Vidhi and Meetakshi! |
In 9th, again I hate to repeat it that we got separated. But we never lost contact with each other. She was just next door so met up with her when we both had the same free periods. She is a sort of person who has friends all over the place in every section of the school. She also knows the maids and who knows maybe she also knows the nursery kids too. If you ever walk with her to the school ground or her favorite place, the cafeteria you’ll have to pass through so many obstacles she calls friends on the way. A two second walk will take you 20 minutes. She knows so many people, it’s a miracle she remembers all of them. Another of her habits it to eat a lot. She goes from table to table and eats peoples lunches, its lucky she knows so many people. I remember one day I hanged with her the entire time during lunch period which is 20 minutes, can you imagine she ate 16 lunches. She couldn’t finish all of it that’s why I and Meetakshi had to help her. Trust me it wasn’t that fun, there was too much food.
In 10th the most devastating thing happened, usually I am the one who get left alone, this time it was her who had been separated. I missed her acting, singing making the atmosphere around her happy just with her presence.
Top 5 reasons why I miss you:
5. You have such a good talent, and your one the best actors out there. I will forever remember that Dolly Bindra act you did. The funniest thing was that all your neighbors came into see what the commotion was about. There were guards present too right?! LOL!
4. I’ve never seen a person eating so much food and still your so thin. It’s magic!
3. You’re confused about everything. I’ve never seen a person so confused I’ll miss that!
2. You make everything so lively. I’ve rarely seen you crying, your so happy most of the time, your either singing most of the time or showing the new acts you keep making. You make everyone laugh.
1. You’ve helped me so much, Maths, SST dramas and most importantly you been the most supportive friend.
