    COLLEGE DIARIES         EPISODE:67              ...It had been three whole days and Ethan's condition was clearly as it was...there was no real improvement. Everyone's worry had reached another level. I came home that day at about 4:00 pm and started preparing coffee. Grandma was sitting on the couch while Lucy read a book.No one said anything to anyone. I removed three mugs from the shelf and started pouring in the prepared coffee as I said, "I feel like I've misjudged a person far too much...".Lucy looked at me and said, "But you never knew, right?".I shook my head and sighed, "I never tried to know the truth...I feel like slapping myself for my downhearted behavior, grandma. He's never going to speak to me after what I've done..." "Don't think that...", grandma said, taking the coffee mug. "But how can I possibly be so rude!!!? I just don't understand myself!!!", I said, completely frustrated. "It...

 COLLEGE DIARIES                   EPISODE:66              ...His condition wasn't improving...though the doctor didn't tell me that, I just knew it...I could sense it... "How is he now?", I asked the doctor as soon as I reached the hospital. "Well, he is getting better...you need to have patience-" "Can I see him now?", I questioned, cutting off whatever lecture he was about to give me. He looked worried, "Sure...come...", he said and went into the ward. I followed. I slowly took little steps toward him. I had seen him last on the road and I saw him in the hospital with all the hospital instruments...I felt so sad looking at him like that, I mean I had always seen him smiling or laughing...or cracking jokes which were actually funny! I sat in the chair which was kept a little away from the bed and glanced at the heart rate monitor which was kept just beside him...his heartbeat was not low...but it wasn...

  COLLEGE DIARIES       EPISODE:65       ... As I got out of the bed and out of the room, I took a quick glance at the wall clock. It was nine pm. I even saw Mr. and Mrs. Jones-Ethan's parents in the hospital. "How are you, Daisy?", Mrs. Jones asked as I came out. "I feel better...", I answered. The doctor came to me again and said, "So, can we ask you some questions now?" "Regarding what?", I asked. "Regarding how it all happened", he said. I wanted to disappear because clearly, I was in no mood to 'answer questions'...recall how it all happened...I had to start with the story from the beginning and I already felt dizzy again at the idea of repeating all of it...Thankfully, Ethan's dad came to my rescue as he said, "Leave that part up to me, doctor". Then he turned to me and said, "Daisy, thank you for bringing my son here at the right time...I promise I would ask you just some questions...if it is right ...

COLLEGE DIARIES                 EPISODE:64           ...He was quickly taken to the ICU. I called Sophie while I was still in tears and thankfully, she picked up. I told her everything and she quickly came as well. She looked pale. As soon as she came, I hugged her tight and all my tears came back again...I remembered how I had ignored her as well which made me cry even more. She hugged me back. "Sophie...I am sorry...don't forgive me! I don't even deserve to be forgiven!!! I am so so so so sorry!".She made me sit on a nearby seat and wiped my tears, some tears appearing in her eyes as well..., "How could I not forgive you, silly! Remember? We are best friends forever!", she said. I hugged her again. "I have been nothing but stupid!".Then I told her the whole thing about the note I found beside Ethan. And it wasn't easy telling her the whole thing all between my crying. "And I thought you both were going out!", I told her....

          COLLEGE DIARIES               EPISODE:63       ..."Daisy...I think you should go speak to Ethan...be friends with him again...", said grandma as I was fixing up breakfast the next morning. I took another sandwich bread and started putting butter on it as I remembered the previous days' song...it was truly wonderful! "Me too...that's exactly how I feel but...talking to someone after so long? It feels kind of different..., doesn't it?", I asked her. She smiled at me, "Different? Never! How can it feel different when you had talked with him since your first day at university?", she asked, raising an eyebrow. "Exactly, Daisy! He's your first friend from college, remember?", Lucy said in a teasing voice. I looked at her but kept quiet...she always teased me when it came to Ethan. "And Daisy!", my grandma called. "Yes?", I questioned. "Just don't forget to tell us the amount of joy he would have o...

            COLLEGE DIARIES             EPISODE:61        ...We were looking at each other for what seemed like forever and the silence felt awkward. I wanted to speak, wanted to utter words, but for some reason, I just couldn't. He was still holding my wrist." Daisy...I love you.", he said, at last, breaking the silence.'I think I need to get an ear checkup', I thought in my mind. He was still looking at me and it started feeling awkward. Very awkward.If it was some other person, I would have used one of my M.A techniques but with Ethan...I just couldn't, I really couldn't. He was the one who had always been there for me...he made me laugh...each day, every day by telling me the funniest jokes...he made my days more beautiful...he had always been with me through thick and thin...But then, suddenly, I remembered those messages he had sent Sophie.'Why?", I thought.'Why did you do that?'.I wanted to sit there ...

      COLLEGE DIARIES               EPISODE:60              ...One Thursday, I visited the cafeteria because I hadn't gone to the cafe for one month and I  wanted to go in there. I first looked around to make sure Ethan wasn't there and when I saw that he wasn't, only then did I enter. I saw an empty seat and I sat there. In a fraction of a second, trust me, he came and chose the table which was two chairs away from me. I swear it felt so weird. And I didn't look towards him but I just knew he was looking at me. I could just sense it. Sophie was out of sight. And to make things worse than they already were, Pete came and sat...right in front of me. "Hey, how are you?", he asked. "I am good, how are you?" "Happy as always! You seem a bit anti-social these days...?", he asked. I looked at Ethan, who was typing on his phone, and said, "No! Just carving out some 'me-time', I guess?".Then he looked towa...

           COLLEGE DIARIES             EPISODE:62                                                                  TO BE CONTINUED... ...On Saturday, as I was going home from my classes, I heard music and I heard singing. It was the most pleasant music I had ever heard in my life. It was a live concert going on in the local park.'Who is performing in the park?', I thought. I went there to receive the biggest surprise. There were so many people standing and cheering, I could barely see who was singing. I moved the crowd a bit to get a better view. A mic, a boy with a guitar who was singing. And I don't know if you have already guessed it by now, but yes, it was Ethan. He was wearing a cap reverse, with a bomber green and yellow jacket and he looked...umm...Amazi...

     COLLEGE DIARIES            EPISODE:59                   ...Some days later, I met Claudia at the supermarket. It was she who saw me, "Daisy!!!", she said. "Claudia! How are you and where have you been?" "Dad won't let me out of the house, he says you need not cook, nor should you go out when we have Nancy to work for us...Today's he's gone for work so here I am! You know, my cooking passion brought me here!", she said with a wink. Then she talked about the dishes she's been trying her hands at and then she talked about..., "You know my brother...he seems pretty dull these days...he won't talk much and he just acts odd!" "Why is that so?", I asked. "I don't know! He won't even pull pranks on me anymore...how's he at college?", she asked. I looked at her.'What am I supposed to say???', was the thought which was constantly running in my mind. "He's fine..." "Let...

     COLLEGE DIARIES                                   EPISODE:58           ..."Why didn't you tell me earlier!??? Throw it in the-" "Daisy! That's it! Did I teach you to misbehave like that? What did he do to you that you are so mad?" "What did he do to me? Grandma, he has broken my trust!", I said and went up to my room and lay on my bed...Tears filled my eyes again...' Why do people have to behave two faced each time? One day you call me words and the other you bring me a cake? UNBELIEVABLE!!!'                              ********************        The next day at college, I parked my bike and went straight into the campus...I did see Ethan standing a distance away and he was looking at me. Sophie as well, she didn't speak to me, however, she had called me the previ...

  COLLEGE DIARIES                                 EPISODE:57             ... "For what are you behaving weird today?", she asked me angrily. "Look, Sophie...I don't think I want to be friends with you or speak to you after what you've-", I said and I couldn't even complete my sentence. Tears filled my eyes...I started walking away from there... I just couldn't believe it! 'Soph-cute-funny?'....clearly, I was jealous and the only question I kept running in my mind was that why do I have to be jealous if two people are happy and content together? Truly, I had no answer to my own thought.                             ******************   During the break, I did not go to the cafeteria and no way was I going to go in there. Instead, I went to the library, sat in a silent corner, and started reading ...

     COLLEGE DIARIES                               EPISODE:56                   ...The next few days went pretty well, but life always has a bad habit of going wrong when things are good and bright and that's exactly what happened with me. On Sunday night, as I completed washing the dinner dishes, I decided to check my phone. I received a text...from Ethan...and it was the worst text I had ever read in my life. It was a big paragraph text...  He wrote, Daisy, I am sorry to hide this from you for a long time but I don't think I want to talk to you anymore...you haven't been the friend I expected you to be. You are such trouble and forever a headache...you know what? Soph is the best person I've ever come across. She's cute, pretty, beautiful and funny...so glad I met someone like her in my life...💜.  My head started spinning around with a mixed...

              COLLEGE DIARIES              EPISODE:55                 ...That night, when I got home and narrated the whole story to Lucy and grandma, Lucy said, "You should have waited to hear his song".I looked at her and said, "Why do you think that?" "Because I think that the song was based on you!", she said with a mischievous smile. "Great thinking. I'll go get some rest now. Have college tomorrow. Good night!", I said and ran up to my room before Lucy said any more embarrassing sentences.                           ****************************   The next day when I was at college, I saw Sophie and she looked sad. She looked like she was about to cry and whenever that happened, it meant that something had gone very wrong because Sophie is a happy-go-lucky kind of person. "What happened, Sophie? Bored...

   COLLEGE DIARIES                                   EPISODE:54                         ...Claudia returned after about fifteen minutes and she looked so mad at Ethan...I knew it was going to happen. But since it was almost dinner time and all the guests were already around, she couldn't do anything other than whispering in my ear, "He's a real, total idiot!" "I heard that!", he said with a laugh. "Congratulations then!", she replied angrily. Now, if I knew that this place was Ethan's house, I don't think I would have accepted the party request because it felt weird...if you know what I mean. There was a long table placed in a huge room which had all the beauty in the world. You know the dining table we see in movies? Just like that...it felt awesome to see such a big table in real life. The room was extra huge with diamond chandeli...
