"Pata nahi log aisa kyun kehte hai ki ladka aur ladki dost nahi ban sakte. Woh L factor hamesha beech me aa jata hain. Par main garuntee de sakti hoon ki main aur Angad sirf dost hai, sirf dost, aur who bhi bahut ache dost." Kripa Kapoor.
Hi, I'm Kripa, Ms. Kripa Tanya Kapoor, to be exact. I name is quite unique, or so my mother used to say. She's no more. I was born after 38 hours of labor, even after being the second child. So you see, it was a miracle I even survived, but my mom didn't. Her name was Tanya Kapoor after marrying dad. I don't personally remember how she looked but I know she must have been beautiful, I have seen pictures. She had hazel eyes that changed colors with her mood, just as I do. Her thick, Mahogany hair fell to her mid- back, while I kept mine rather shorter, just past my shoulder. She had a beautiful smile, like my dad says I have. So basically I look like my mom's exact copy, just a younger version with more attitude. My mom had been a kind and loving person, I can tell just by the way everyone talks about her. But this tiny part of me always felt guilty because she wasn't alive anymore because she gave birth to me.
But enough of this stuff, I'm here to introduce my story to you. Like I said, I'm Kripa and I'm 16 years old. I have a older brother who's a year older than me, Josh. Josh is pretty much the only family I have, except for dad. But we rarely see him since he's always away, but I know that he does really love us. Then there's Angad, my best friend, my partner in crime. We've been friends before either of us could stand on two feet. Both Josh and Angad are very protective of me, sometimes it's kinda annoying, not that I would tell them. Angad is probably the only person that gets me. The only thing I need to mention about myself is that I'm a girl but I don't act like it, which makes it even harder for me to survive high school. Being a junior and all and now transferring to a new school, God, let the drama begin. I'm quite touchy on the subject of my appearance and my brother and Angad get that. It's probably because I've never had any woman role model in my life. My mom wasn't there and angad's mom, well that's an entire different story. Let's not discuss that, in case angad finds out. He doesn't like anyone in the house mentioning Naina Khanna, Opps, here I go again.
Oh, I forgot to mention this. We have, as in My family and Angad's family lived in Delhi our whole lives but thanks to our parents (notice the sarcasm) are moving us to Mumbai because of some business issues. But the good part is that we were neighbors then but now we'll be living in the same house, a friggin mansion to be exact.
