It was my first day at school. I had a new bag, water bottle, new books, shoes and socks and also a Dora shaped tiffin box. I was happy about going to school with all these new things, but what I felt sad about was that I had to make new friends too. I wouldn’t mind if I had old friends. So, I ran to the prayer room before leaving the house to ask God to find a friend for me that day itself. I felt that my first day of school would be very boring- sitting all alone only copying the notes and looking at the others talking and laughing with their friends. I reached my classroom. All were looking at me since I was new. Thank God! the teacher came fast, since all were shouting. We had to introduce ourselves. After I introduced myself and sat in my place I suddenly heard a small voice from my back. Somebody said, “Excuse me” and I turned around. To my surprise it was a beautiful girl. “Yes” I said, and then she asked me if I could be her friend? I was so happy that I couldn’t stop myself from saying yes. A friend on the first day of school itself!
