Sree... Alone...

Sree was sad. Really sad. This kept coming back to her. This was not the first time. Ever since her school life she was a part of a trio but always a third person in the trio. In school it was Sneha, Kirti and she. In the tuitions, it was Soumee, Piali and she. And now again it was Swastika, Arushi and she. Why did she always remain a third person still remained a mystery to her. She was always tormented due to this. She couldn't find an answer. Why was it always that the other two people had to be so compatible? Her overall image had always been a friendly person's. Infact, she was the only person to have interacted with the entire class in such a short span of time.

Finding no other alternative, she decided to sit back with Shakshi. Shakshi was a sweet girl that went without doubt. But she always seemed to have left her brain back home. It was becoming increasingly difficult for Sree to cope with her. If Sree would miss to understand something and enquire into Shakshi, the most common reply was, "Arre, just copy it... Later on we will understand..." This would put Sree off. She hated this concept of copying without understanding. But she knew there weren't too many options. The other girls in the class were worse still. A question kept coming back to her... How could she be surrounded with so many fools... or was she the fool...

In school, she was surrounded with extra-curricular activitites. Here, she didn't come across any such thing in the college. Then all of a sudden, Mr. Biswas asked her if she would be interested to help him with the news-letter of the college. There was no question of denial. And there in the English lab... She meet Mrs. Rajanya Chakraborty... Sree took an immediate liking towards her...
