"And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad.
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. "
TEENAGE (PRECISELY LATE TEENS): THIS IS RELATING TO PEOPLE WHO ARE BETWEEN THIRTEEN TO NINETEEN. IN THIS PERIOD THEY BECOME SENSITIVE TOWARDS SOME PECULIAR THINGS LIKE THEIR LOOKS , ETC. DEVELOPMENT OF SECONDARY SEXUAL CHARACTERISTIC TAKE PLACE.THEIR BRAIN DEVELOPMENT CONTINUES AND THEY ARE NOW ABLE TO UNDERSTANDS THINGS BETTER. ALL THESE DEVELOPMENTS LEAD TO VARIOUS CHANGES BOTH MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY. EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE A BETTER COMMAND OVER THEIR EMOTIONS THEY AREN'T BEST WHEN IT COMES TO HIDING EMOTIONS OR EVEN EXPRESSING THEM. CLUMSINESS CAN BE SEEN IN THEM EASILY. N YES THEY ARE EASILY IRRITATED.
THIS PERIOD IS OF GREAT IMPORTANCE IN ANY INDIVIDUAL'S LIFE AS IT IS THIS PERIOD WHERE THE NAIVENESS SOMEWHAT ENDS AND A PERSON FACES THE HARSH REALITIES OF LIFE.
IT IS BASICALLY THE STAGE WHERE ALL CHILDPLAYS ENDS AND REALITIES COME INTO PLAY.
Being a teenager is not easy, not only for the kid but also the parents. Rebellion is something that is commonly seen in teens. When asked not to do certain things they think 'WHY NOT?' and do what they are told not to. Not only that add emotional overdrive caused by hormones and what you get is a total disaster.
A young teen sat in her room completing her school project. Her mother called her so she went to see what it was that her mother wanted.
"What is it MA?"
"Will call your father and ask him when would he be home?"
"You are asking As if I can no, I'll have to do it anyways" the girl went back muttering.
"You said something" the mother asked.
"I said I'll go ask him..."
"Okay okay don't waste time.... and now go"
'Really Ma and asking me to call my father, when you could have done it easily is not a waste of my time....' The girl thinks as she went back to her room to call her father .
After doing as her mother asked her to do she went back to study.
It was not long before her mother called her again.
"What is it now?"
"Is this a way to talk to your elder, especially your parent?" her mother asked after hearing her daughter's tone of speech.
"Sorry ma, What was it that you asked me for?"
"Call your sister for me, will you?"
"As you say, Ma" the teen replied in a sarcastic tone.
This time the mother ignored her.
She went to her sister's room and knocked .
"Who's it?"
"Who else...."
"What do you want now?"
"Nothing Ma was calling you"
"so,...."
"Just go and see what she wants, and please ask her to stop calling me for miscellaneous works. "
Her sister just laughs at that and she went back to her room to study.
The young teen shakes her head as she went back to her room. As soon as she open the books her mother calls for her once more and the teen snaps .
'What I really want to know is... why? everyone remember that they want me to do something when I finally make up my mind to study. Don't they know how difficult it is to prepare oneself to even go through those Devil's Texts aka books well more like school workbooks... Novels on the other hand are a very different story...'
Her train of thoughts is simply broken by her mother calls, who sounds angry this time. So she moved and went to do as her mother asks before she gets anymore angry.
Next morning as she woke up, she was really dreading to go to school. She was really contemplating taking a day off which in itself would be strange, seeing as she loved going to school. Unlike other kids who cried on their first day to school she was excited and had raced as soon as she got off the car on the first day of her school life, unlike her fellow students who were crying for their mommies and home.
But she is big girl now and her love for school had not changed over time, if anything it may have increased.
So, why dread going to school?
Well the answer is quite strange.... Its start of Valentine's week. Which means a legitimate week for all those lovey dovey couples to show off and many to start pursuing. This week was such a boon to all those Casanovas .......
The young teen hated this week with a passion not because she would be pursued, on the contrary that was not at all a problem; meaning not that she was happy that boys' will be pursuing her like lapdogs, but actually not a single guy will ask her out.
Want to know WHY?
Well, the answer to this question is again very easy 'Her boys won't let anyone even get near her'; Not because she was committed or anything but because they were overprotective.
According to them their little sister would not be with any hormone crazed teenager, with which she was totally alright. What didn't set alright with her was they wanted her to be with HIM.
HIM being the guy everyone wanted her to be with when she and the guy himself were unwilling. Everyone was adamant they get together. Half of the school already thought they were together even her family knew about him. Well except her father, as he would simply go for a kill if he even has a hint of it. But then again he may not.
She shrugs her head to get rid of her thoughts, takes a deep breath and tries to calm her nerves and collect her thoughts.
As she steps her foot in the school campus she can see the change in environment, add to the fact her school's organizing a BLOODY VALENTINES PARTY I mean what school does that? 'A Valentine's Party' really?
And she has no choice but to attend, with none other than HIM.
Now everyone will ask why with HIM if she hates him so much?
First of all hate is a strong word, she merely dislikes the fact that she is linked with him for last 3 years not him. So, her dislike is regarding the fact not the guy. She actually likes his personality. Yes, she does. He's a nice guy with proper manners and he respects others too. Though he's somewhat mysterious, one fact is known to all, and that is.... he loves his family too much, for which she really admires him. Add to the fact the guy shares her passion for ARMY. And being tall, dark and handsome is just an added bonus.
Well now to the reason she has to go is that, she is secretary of school's cultural club and it is mandatory for all the members of club to come as they are the organizers and managers.
Now as to why she has to go with HIM, it's because it is the tradition that secretary goes with the president and with him being the president it was going to happen. Just her luck!
Their friends more like his both Besties, who are like brothers to her were way too much exited even though, they didn't even have dates! They were happy for their friend, who himself did not want to go for the party which was more like a Ball. Her Bestie who was in other words, her twin was happy too... she really was happy with the turn of events for them.
On the day of the party, as she was getting ready her father called for her as she was about to leave.
"You asked for me Papa"
"Yes child, you see we um..."
"What is it Papa?"
"I really don't know how to tell you this..."
"What Papa? Is everything alright, I am getting worried now.."
"Everything's alright, Its just that we'll be moving soon..."
"Moving?"
"My child, I have been transferred, we'll be moving soon. You should tell your friends... "
"But Papa I ... how... no no please no papa we can't leave, my friends and every.... everything....."
"My child you need to get over it, there is still a lot time for you to say goodbye to your friends... now get going its almost time for your party.... you better not be late .. okay?"
"Okay Papa..."
"And you look beautiful my little warrior..."
The young teen smiled sadly as she left her father's study and set on the drive from her home to the party venue.
She couldn't believe her life changed in just a blink of eye. Even though it was inevitable with her father's job, she couldn't help but feel like crying at the thought of leaving everything behind.
As soon as she reached the venue, the first thing she did was... looking for the restroom to go fix herself up, so that none of her friends suspect anything. She can't tell them, at least not now when everyone was so happy; she can't be the party pooper and destroy the mood.
As soon as she found the restroom she fixed herself up and put on a fake smile trying to look as natural as possible. The moment she opened the door and took turn to leave, she was crushed with wall, well what seemed to be like a moving wall..... or more like HIM.
HE was standing there looking down at her, holding her... well more like securing her to his chest. As they continue to look in each other's eyes, they were in a trance. A spell binding them making them unable to notice there surroundings, a clear of throat makes them notice that they have gathered quite some attention as they are blocking the passage to the restroom.
They separate hurriedly while others just give teasing smile. She lowers her eyes as she feels tears building and ready to pool out. She was going to miss them all so damn much, even HIM.
She tries to move past him but since she's not fast enough or maybe she was unable to move fast with what was going in her mind, what had happened moments ago and tears blurring her vision. He got hold of her elbow and yanked her back and as a result she was back in his arms, within his warm secure arms. Anyone passing by will simply mistake them for a couple, by looking at them. They stood there, hugging each other unknowingly... until he felt her choke a sob, he made her look into his eyes. Her warm eyes that always have a twinkle in them, seem dull. He could even see tears forming in her eyes. It tears him apart to see her so dull and gloomy. He feels a strong need to warm and comfort her, to be close to her.
"You okay?" he asks
"Absolutely fine.... Completely perfect"
"You and I both know how much of lie it is. So , now would you be kind enough to share what's the problem with you. You don't seem to be like your usual self. Now tell me what's wrong?"
Looking into his eyes she felt genuine concern flooding his eyes. His usual emotion less eyes had in them a scene of tsunami, so many emotions were there and all she could do was become enchanted by them as the flood gates open for her as she told him..
"I m moving.... Papa got transferred" and continued with her crying while holding him tightly as if he was her anchor and leaving him will make her fall into the deep ocean of darkness.
{His view in italics}
He let her cry and spill her emotion. He held her close to him as his own emotions were building and turmoil's going within him, so many questions form in his mind and there answers don't seem within reach. All he could do in that moment was hold her and cherish her wishing to never let go but he has to.
As she calms her cries turn into dry sobs and eventually fade into nothing.
"I actually feel better now that I don't have all those feelings locked within me" she says with a hint of smile as he gets the hint to the real meaning behind that sentence.
"So do I " he replies with a smile and held her hand as they left to find there friends..
"SOMEONE PINCH ME,I THINK I M DREAMING" her Bestie said loudly drawing all attention towards them.
The young teen slaps her Bestie playfully and then pinches her hard.
"Ouch... I was just saying u didn't have to pinch me so hard. Anyways what's with hand holding and all... I thought I remember someone saying something along the lines I won't touch him even if my life depended on it..."
A soft blush covered her face and she hid it in his chest and then all hell breaks loose...
"OMG, OMFG U GUYS ARE DATING....." Both of his besties and her bestie squeal altogether
"WELL THAT'S FOR US TO KNOW AND U TO NEVER FIND OUT" HE smirks as he lead her to the dance floor....
BEING A TEENAGER IS DEFINITELY DIFFICULT BUT EVERYTHING AS TWO SIDES WELL U JUST HAVE TO LOOK AT THE BRIGHT SIDE.....
