Chapter SEVEN

Faith made us not only friends in class and in the colony but we are even friends in examination too. I was in first column and behind Me, Jahnavi followed by Sai and Meera.

It was Mechanics, everyone is busy in writing, me and Sai where looking at each other.

I peeped at Meera, she is busy with exam. Jahnavi looked at me, gave slight smile type expression, write your's don't waste your time Viki. She uttered. I was shocked to hear my name from her mouth and that too with smile.

I thought she is busy with preparation and lost her sense. How could she be so cool with me? Until now , every time she smiled at me, there is a thug between us. So I have to be care now.

I concentrated on paper.

Jahnavi trying to help Sai. He very fortunate, from forward Jahnavi is helping to write and from rare Meera. Both are supporting him.

Lucky bugger, I thought in my mind and moved on.

Somehow, we gave our exams. On very last day to that year semesters we are in cafeteria. We are having coffee. Apparently Meera got a call from her home. Excuse me guys she Said and went a side.

Hello dad.

Hello betta. Where are you?

I'm at college dad.

How is your exam went?

Good dad, why are you asking like this?

We have to leave to Delhi for 1 month, our flight is at

tomorrow 10 AM.

Is that emergency dad?

Yes betta, goverment security systems are hacked, our

company is handling its security from now, for one month. Okay dad. But dad I will be late today, is it okay for you? Make sure that you reach her by 10PM.

Okay dad, love you.

Love you to betta.

By the time she disconnected the call we already reached to parking lot. Sai is sitting on the bike, I was standing before him, Meera is next and Jahnavi is to my back.

We are talking with each other, sudden Meera called Sai.

Yes, Meera.

I want to tell you something.

What is that ? Asked Sai,

That...

Nothing will happen speak out Meera, Jahnavi spoken

out from behind.

I love you Sai ! Meera uttered out.

She proposed him. I didn't even imagined this could be

happened, he is an average looking guys, and more over she is close to me, she never reveled it in front of me nor raised that topic before.

I asked her by pulling back, Arey yaar mujhey pehley kyu bataya nahi? Why didn't you tell me ? She Said " mai bahoot koshish kari thi par mujh sey nai hopaya, aur ajj laga ki mai Sai ko bahot miss karney vallihoon issi liye mai unko boldi". I though i'll be missing him, and I tried to tell you about my situation then I realized it won't work, if anything

goes wrong my friendship goes outbound. More over I'm leaving to Delhi tomorrow. So I thought this might be the right time to convey my love.

Then I got it, I Said ok, ask him to take out for coffee or lunch! Apparently I got message from Jahnavi that shall we go for coffee? I looked at her after reading message from her. I replied, Are you gonna mad! Here I'm helping our friend and you want to have some food.

She replied that okay, let them go by bike which I bought today for some work we will go by train as usual. I texted thank you Jaanu ! She might feel new to that name and probably she should be embarrassed.

I Said Sai that you two come by bike and we will leave in a very polite manner. I started laughing and trying to control it. Jahnavi is laughing and bitting her lips to control it in front all of us.

"Abey pagal, ladki hey sambhal key baat karna", hey crazy man, handle her with care and talk with all your might.

Haan chal baap ko mat sikha, chal hum chaltey hey!

Don't teach this to your master, and we both will take leave. Bye !

They left to coffee shop Barista which is on our way to home.
