Episode 11, Ruchi's Playground Encounter. Hello people, today I'm going to share a secret about me. That is my first crush, my first love story. So it is important because it was the very first story. It was the very first time I felt like, what is crushing? What is it like to like someone? It was totally fresh and new for me.

First of all, I saw him in the park. I used to go there to play. I used to enjoy the rides there. I saw that I was sitting on a swing and he was standing exactly in front of me and he was poking me. I thought, why is he poking me? My clothes are not right or my hair is not right. Or maybe I have done something that makes me look stupid. Why is he poking me?

I think he was my age or must be one year or two year older than me.

So I was like, maybe he wants to play with me. Why is he staring at me? So that's how our day went. He was just looking at me. Next day, I went to play in the same park. Then he came and talked to me.

I got a little scared and took a step back. But he told me that he just wanted to play with me in the garden. I said okay. So we were enjoying the swing together. Where I told him my name. Told him my school name. And told him where I live. I know this is a lot of information at once. But come on, I was in my pre-teen. So he told me the same about him. Where does he study?

Where is his house? Where are his tuitions? And that's how we became friends. We had learned basic details about each other. And every day we used to come to the garden. We used to meet each other. We used to talk. We used to feel good. We used to wait for him to come home from school.

We would get ready, play in the park, meet each other. It had become a routine. Because we didn't get much time in the evening after our school. We didn't play much. We didn't play at all since we met. We would just talk. So we didn't get much time. So we didn't get much time.

He suggested that I join his tuition where he goes for tuition. So, we can spend more time like this and we can study more which will be good for our studies also. So, I agreed to that. I went and told my mom that my mom has found out a very good tuition. The teacher is very good. Can we join that? So, my mom agreed to it. Okay, you join it.

And I saw him there. It was a very good feeling. Everything was new. It was a special feeling that someone is there looking at me. Someone is there who is like you already have a friend. It's not like it's the first day of class and you have to go inside and you don't know anyone. It was a good feeling for me to join tuition because he was already there. Tell me his name. His name was Adi.

Adi used to study there from the beginning. So it was easy for me to just adapt. I went there and sat next to him. All the children of our age, different age groups used to come. The children of our age were a little surprised that she already knows him. She has sat next to him. So they were a little surprised.

But slowly they found out that yes, we know each other from before. But they didn't know that we like each other a lot. So slowly the teacher also started to know that they both sit together, go home together and always look at each other. I think they both are into each other. The teacher didn't like these things and she started to make us sit separately. There were two sections there. So in one section he was sitting and in the other section I was sitting.

Which was again fun. You always want to do things that you're forbidden of.

I was pretty vile on that part. Okay, so... We used to go home holding each other's hands after tuitions. We used to go out for ice cream together.

And yes, we used to go to Pani Puri. Vada Pav is also very famous here. We used to eat that too. So it was a pretty cute, fun love story. It had a twist when my friend became a friend in tuition and she started hanging out with us. And she started liking him. Of course, she didn't know that we were dating each other. That's why.

So I told her, okay, are you sure you like him? She was very sure that she likes Adi. So I didn't tell her that I like him too. I don't know why I was doing that. I think it was all coming naturally to me. I didn't have any plan in my mind that I should tell her that I am dating so that she doesn't get into the situation. Things might get complicated, but no. I was going smooth on that part that okay, if you want to talk to him, you can talk to him.

So she started talking to him. He was spending more time with her than me. And gradually Adi's interest, time, everything started diverting. And he started talking to me less and less. One day I confronted Adi. What it is? Do you even like me anymore or not? He confessed that he's not sure anymore.

And maybe he is having his feelings diverted towards her. And I think that's where I lost him. He was more with her than me. And I started feeling a little stupid. Oh my God, I'm just losing this guy. It was like my first crush. And it pays out very quickly. Then I realized that it's okay. I think I'm going to have a lot more crushes in future. And in the exact same situation...

Even when there was Adi and this friend of mine being together, there was this guy who was liking me. But I think I don't want it to complicate things that I just got on with one guy and then I'm jumping on to another. So I took a break. I took my time. By then, our high school was over. I left the tuition. I moved on in life. And I don't want it to get back there. The city had also changed.

Group bhi change ho gaya tha. So I just moved on and I never spoke to Adi or the friend I had or anyone from that group. I think I wanted to move on in life and not complicate things. So yeah, I met someone else, happier, I was good and someone who never left me.

So I think I'm in my happy space. But yeah, first crush are always good to talk about and to remember about. And I'm happy I met him because he gave me kind of a magnetic attraction and what crushes are. And it was kind of a beautiful temporary feelings, but beautiful feelings. Thank you.
