The Simple Story

by Sanchari Kar

Being a normal girl, sometime it becomes really tough to cope with the modern changing society. But we got to be proud of what we are. We must remember that every individual has a role to play in the world on his/her own terms. It is the story of Akanksha Kumar, the simple introvert who at first finds life very frustrating. But eventually she learns to be confident and face it.

Once there was a simple girl named Akanksha. She was born and brought up in a small city of India. Her parents were both teachers in different schools. She was the youngest member in her family. She had an elder sister, Rupali, beautiful, intelligent and a dancer. She had an elder brother, the high school crush and a football player,Tushar. Only little Akanksha was a bit introvert, shy and ordinary like any other girl. The only companion she had was the TV. She could spend the whole day watching cartoons on TV. She even tried to enact them in her real life with her pillows and dolls. Akanksha was not so friendly with her parents. They were too busy. Soon Akanksha was admitted to a nearby primary school. Tushar was given the duty of taking his little sister to school on his to his own school. Akanksha could not believe why Tushar was so famous among girls. For her, he was just an annoying, over smart jerk who was always in a hurry to take faults out of her. He would grab her food, complain to mom about her that she is a loser. And that Tushar was dropping her to school. What an insult!!. But no one dares to oppose mom. But on the very fast day, Tushar...
