It was first day at the school after high-school examinations. All the students were happy to see there friends after a long time in school dress but , this time all of them were not in the same class anymore...they were separated to each other according to the their chosen subjects, it was just a beginning for which they felt sad but they were about to meet the ones they'll spend next memorable years of school life with.
In all that chaos a girl walked up the stairs she had a smile on her face which seemed like a mix of happiness and nervousness. She reached her class door, she glanced at the board hanging outside it was section 'B'. Her eyes lit and she smiled with confidence this time, she took a step forward but a guy came running from the class he held he girl and went behind her. She was confused but then saw other guys coming after him and then glanced at him.
He was taking deep breaths then smiled gently at the girl He said
"yrr bacha lo mujhe vrna aaj ye log chodne nhi wale"
She giggled and said
"Aree m kesse bachaungi"
He replied
" aree tum ladki ho yrr vo kuch nhi krenge tumhe, uppar se tum itni sundar ho tumhe lagta h ki vo tumhe hath bhi lagayenge and, don't worry agar kisi n hath bhi lagaya toh fir m Sambhal lunga."
His words worked as a magic in her ears she was assured that with him around she's safe. So she stopped the guys coming after him and asked them to return. The boys after him actually turned around and returned to their seats, the girl was quiet surprised and was even confused she was staring them and heard a voice in her ears
" thank you so much yrr.. vese name kya h aapka?"It was him looking at her with a smile,
she replied " oh! Koi na by the way I'm ishira. What about you?"
" ooh Haan, I'm avyukt. Let's be friends" he said
She agreed toh him and they went inside, he ecastically introduced her to everyone and showed her a seat to sit on. She was no longer nervous about her school as there was someone she was friends with.
They were normal friends by that time, she approach him when she was in trouble, they laugh together, eat together, studied together and gradually they became one of the known duo's of the school.
It wasn't long enough after they became friends a girl proposed to him and he accepted her proposal. The first person he told about his relationship was the girl.
He approached her after the class and said "ishira ek baat btani thi."
He seemed to be nervous but she gently said "ha bol kya bolna tha?"
He told her " yrr vo Ankita h na C section ki..."
She said " ha Pata h vo meri kafi acchi friend thi ab bol kya hua? "
Her expression changed and she seemed to be worried until he said " vo usne na mujhe propose kr diya.. aur pta h bol rhi thi ki vo mujhe pasand krti h and mere sath rehna chahti h. Yrr uss time mujhe kuch samajh hi nhi aa rha tha but fir Maine usse bola ki ha ok m samajh gaya and thank you m tumhe baad m btata hu. Pr Yr vo bolne lag gyi ki nhi abhi bolo agar tum mana kr doge toh bhi chalega but bta kr jao."
She asked with curiosity " ha fir tune kya kiya? kya bola tune?"
He said " aree sun toh puri baat.. fir Maine socha ki kya bolu Utne m sare ladki bolne lag gye Ha bol de bhai.. ha bol de. Yrr fir mujhe kuch samajh nhi aaya Maine ha bol diya.. vese ladki acchi dikhti h or Mai usse bohot acche se janta toh nhi par jitna janta hu vo nature wise bhi thik h."
Ishira said " yrr jb yahi baat thi toh bol deta na Pehle.. m toh dar hi gyi thi usne kya krdiya Jo tu itna nervous ho gaya. Yre direct bhi toh Bata sakta tha na." She stared at him with anger but at the same moment he laughed and said " Aree direct Bata deta toh maza nhi aata na... ab dekh tu kitni tension m lag rhi h." He giggled and continued " yrr mujhe nhi Pata tha meri dost ko meri itni fikr h"
Her anger wiped of the second she heard these words. They both laughed together .
After few days she asked him how it was going between him and Ankita. His smke faded and he said " yrr pooch mt.. bhaii Har baat par ladai karne lagta h yrr or khud message bhi nhi Karti or yrr Pata h mujhe toh lag rha h ki usse Mai kabhi pasand hi nhi tha usse bs mere looks acche lagte the or ab shayad vo bore ho chuki h mujhse." Ishira stared at him and she said " aise kese yrr approach toh usne hi kiya tha.. and ab vo aisa Kar rhi h.. vese tumhe abhi bs 1 week hua h na sath m?"
He said " ha yrr or vo already aisa kr rhi h.. bhaii m breakup k liye nhi bolunga pr agar vo karegi toh Mai Ana bhi nhi karunga kyuki mujhe aisa lag rha h jese ab usse koi or pasand h or isliye vo mujhse breakup karna chahti h."
He was sad but was trying to hide his emotions behind a fake smile but ishira pointed it and she knew he wasn't feeling good so, she said " avyukt yrr tujhe bura lag rha h toh aise fake smile k pich mat chupa usse and yrr agar tujhe jese ladke ko koi chodegi na tohvo uss ladki ki galti hogi. Tu itna accha h and tune apna best diya in sabme and m hu na humesha tere sath rahungi so zyada mat soch. Okay?"
He said " ha yrr sahi keh rahi h. Or fir tu toh h hi na." And smiled gently towards her. She smiled back and said "chal cafeteria chalte h kuch kha kr aate h tera mood bhi accha ho jayega".
He instantly replied " bhaii mere pass paise nahi hai."
She said " aree yrr m le kr chal rhi hu na toh mai pay krungi don't worry. Ab Bata chalna h?"
He said " aree free ki party vo bhi ishira de rhi h m toh pakka chalunga.. chal."
They both laughed together and went to the cafeteria, their they saw Ankita and avyukt went to her to say hii but she coldly ignored him and went with another guy. His smile faded in a second and everyone present there started talking about him different voices could be heard saying
" aree ye toh date Kar rhe hai natohvo kisi or ksath kyu chali gayi"
" bhai Ye Kitna zyada loyal hai iski bas ek female friend h or dekho apni girlfriend k liye usse bhi chod diya. Pr vo ladki ye loyalty deserve nhi Karti."
Everyone I'm the cafeteria were gossiping about them. He heard it all, his expressions were saying he wasn't feeling good but then turned to ishira and said " yrr sorry tujhe piche chod diya". But she gently smiled at him and said " Aree tune nhi choa vo toh tu baat Kar raha tha Ankita se tohisliye m khud ruk gaya thi. Isme teri koi galti nhi h. Abhi k liye yaha se chalte h."
He noded and said " ha chal" they went for class. She tried to cheer him up the whole day.
The same day at night she got his notification, she saw rhe time, it was 12:02 am (midnight). She grabbed her phone and glanced outside window it was dark and quiet she saw the message saying " yrr usne breakup k liye bola or kaha ki isse mujhme koi interest nhi mai bohot boring ladka hu, vo apna time mere Jesse boring ladke pr waste nahi karna chahti. Toh Maine bhi bol diya ok toh tumhe Jo pasand h usse sath raho. Good bye. Usne seen karke chod diya"
She thought he must be heart broken so she replied " avyukt koi na mai hu na sath m. Hum Kal ground pr chalenge and masti karenge tujhe bhi accha lagega."
He said " ha ok tu h tab toh mazza hi aayega. Chal fir thik h soja Kal jaldi school aana. Ok"
She said " ok jaldi aaungi tu bhi soja ab."
Then he said " Bata raha hu agar late aayi toh dekhna." She said "ok" and smiled without any reason.
Next day in school she met Ankita at her class door. She was saying " ishira hum friends the Please ek baar avyukt ko baat karne k liye bol do na. Mai Jisse like Karti thi uski girlfriend h ab Mai usse like nhi Karti. Mujhe avyukt k sath hi rehna h."
Ishira smiled and said " bhaii accha pyar h aaj kisi or se or Kal kisi or se.. vese koi na hum friends the isliye tujhe respectfully apni class m vapas Jane l liye bol rhi hu vrna mere pass or bhi tareeke h." Ankita said " ishira tu toh aisi nhi thi tu toh mujhse bhi thik se baat nahi Karti thi toh iske liye ye sab kyu?"
Ishira said " tu ladki thi but mujhe kabhi vo comfort nhi de payi Jo avyukt n diya h. Yrr honestly Jo itna accha friend ho sakta h vo Kitna zyada accha boyfriend bnega tu khud soch. But chod abkoi fayada nhi teacher aane wale h apni class m jao. Bye. "
She entered the class and smiled at avyukt he didn't say a word but his eyes spoke everything. He gave a thumbs up and smiled carefree. They attended the class and went to the ground. Both of them were smiling at each other and we're enjoying the weather.
Suddenly avyukt stood up and said " ishira kuch bolu?" Ishira froze for a second and said "ha bol kya bolna h?"
Her breath fastened and he whispered in her ears " ishira abse m tujhe ishi bulaunga."
Her ears turned red, she was blushing and Avyukt, he saw her blushing like that and asked if she was not feeling well. She didn't replied instead ran away. He was confused and was quiet curious about what happened to her he mumbled " aisa toh pehle kabhi nahi kiya isne kya ho gaya? Kahi aisa toh nhi isko accha nahi laga ki maine isse ishi bola."
On the other side ishira was trying to call her racing heart and think of a way to explain him...
But the more she thought about it, the more impossible it seemed to her....
