2|• Meet Up After Lockdown

Kyun zara sa

Mausam sarphira hai

Yaa mera mood

Maskhara hai, Maskhara hai

Jo zayeqa manmaniyo ka

Hai woh kesa rass bhara hai

Mai janu na janu na janu na...!!!

Aarvi's POV

After tolerating that mess ka atyaachaar..... I went back to my mata shree and papa who were waiting for me and talking to some students and parents standing there...

Everyone around were hugging their parents and saying Tata byeee... There were tears in everyone's eyes.... Ufff....

And I was not even feeling a little bit of sad.... Yeah okkk aate hi bahoot saraa wala syaapa ho gya agree to that... Lekin still bura lagne wala bura nahi lag rha.... Am very deet to cry... At least not in front of others...

When I reached there... My mother introduced me to Vanshika and her mother....

Hmm I know everyone there but only with names.....of course guys Online classes... I had chit chat to them online..... And everyone knows me too.....

I became quite famous during online classes....

Not because of my talent or anything.... Yeah that is also one thing but mostly because of fights and arguments I got into in WhatsApp chat group... There are some over smart boys of this school who think they'll say anything to anyone and no one would react....

Haaah!!! But little did they know... Am Aarvi Rajput... Mene ghar par kisi ki nahi suni toh inki sunuugi???? Sapne mei bhi nahi....

"Aarvi beta..... Here life is really tough.... If you feel sad or anything ask Vanshika... Okk... Don't cry on that" Vanshika's mother said....

I came out of my thought and realized what she said...

I was going to reply and suddenly my mother said laughing

"Yeh royegi... Yeh in sabh ko na rula de.... "

I gave her a "what the fuck" Look!!!

Mate shree Mate shreeee....!!! Ufffff

But I agree to her though.... Anyways... Time for there leave.....

I hugged my papa... And he hugged me back.... "Khayal rakhna " He said with emotional smile...

I smiled back....

I hugged my mother too... "Bhagwan khayal rakhe is school ka... " She said with smile...

"Muma yaaaar" I said in "am done with you" tone....

And went inside.... Everyone was busy making there bed.... Haah!!! Mine was already set so I laid on the bed finally... Saans aai....

A girl came to me... "Hiii you are..... Aarvi right???? "

I looked at her in confusion.... Okk this is the worst moment when a person in front of you knows your name but you don't...

I smiled back and sat on my bed folding my legs...

"Yeahh heyy"

She sat beside me "Am Riya.... Remember we talked on WhatsApp.... "

"Ohhhh achaaa Riya hii hii how are you" I asked finally Remebering who is she...

Teacher's favorite student Miss Riya... Who always attends the class... And always tries to give answers to teacher whether she knows or not.... She's kind of clingy too... But when I chatted with her and asked her to help me with something... She happily did.... I got to know sometimes we need to talk to a person without giving any judgement.... They could be much better and sweet then our first impression...

Okk Aarvi enough of gyaan...!!!

"Am fine.... So do you liked our school and hostel"...

" Haan bahooooot especially the mess Ahhhh kya khana tha maza aagyaa" I said with sass.... Is there anything to like about this hostel???

She laughed.... "I know I know how much you liked the food...."

She introduced me with other girls too....Shashi.. Manaya.... Ruhi... Avni... And sabhiii I know them all by there names already....

As we had already talked online..... I made great bonding with all of them...

Thank God... Kuch toh acha hai yaha... Vibes match ho gai guys!!!!

We all were talking about how they did atyachaar on calling us for offline classes... How online classes were best... How not even a single child among us have studied anything.... And our board exams Are next month.... Ufff too much stress... Kafi depression bari baatein chal rahi hai hai.....

And suddenly a shrill voice came.... Kasam se kaan ke parde faad diye.... "Niklooooo girlsss"

And suddenly everyone started wearing their shoes and grabbing bag....

One second??? Itss evening time.... Where the hell they all are going....

I asked Aasha my wall mate...

"Kidr nikalna hai"

"To school for supervision studies... " She replied...

No bhagwan ji please no... Ek din mei mene mahine bhar ka chal liya.... Sorry sorry not ek din... Just aadha din....

And I "bina mann ke" Grabbed my bag and started following them..... Uffff....

They all made a line outside the hostel... And started head counting...

1.....2....3....4... Too much discipline... Ufff itni der me mei do baar hoke aa jaati...

After an eternity... We finally reached our school...

And I settled down with Avni... On first bench... from always am a first bencher guys..... Ider aake style ni maar rahi don't worry....

Avni is a sweet girl.... And preety too.... We became good friends....

Everyone in the class were talking like kumb ke bichde hue bhai bhn... Mana 2 saal baad mile ho lekin itna shor... Uffff.....

And then a teacher entered our class....

We all stood up and greeted her..... "Good evening mam"

"Good evening Students... Get seated" She said politely...

She was Our Hindi teacher.... Meena mam....

She further said "welcome everyone ..... after a long break hmmm... So how you all are feeling coming back to school"

Zindagi ki sabse badi galti.... I murmured.... Avni controlled her laugh.....

All the teachers were also new....

As this school comes under Government.... Every year teachers get transferred to different schools.... So I was not a newbie for them but like others only... And the thing is I had interacted with all the teachers even more than any other student.... So I have better bonding with teachers more than them

And she gave us an half an hour lecture... And suddenly a clerk comes to our class.... "All the students and teachers have to gather in ground for special assembly after some time... As today is National education day and anyone who is interested to participate can give there names"

Before lockdown and even in between..... I always use to give speeches... Performe dance and other activities... I never miss a chance to perform on stage.... I love the feeling of Mike and stage... But... As it's almost 2 years I had stepped on stage so I was not sure... What if I felt nervous????

Come on Aarvi.... You are Aarvi Rajput..... Participation matters..... Jai mata di....

The moment I was thinking... Suddenly Meena mam came to me... "Aarvi do you want to participate???? "

"Ummm yess mam... " I said without giving it a second thought

"Ok then I'll give your name to them" She said with smile....

Mata rani bacha lena.....

And I took a deep breath.....

We all make a line and went to ground... We settled down there and one student started giving anchoring....

I made some lines of my speech sitting there in my mind...

While I was thinking about my speech someone else came to stage of delivering his speech???? What the hell??? They said me to deliver the speech... Koi ijaat hai ki nahi?????? Rage was flowing through me....

And that boy said "Good evening everyone.... Am Sharik khan.... "

Sharikkkk so he is sharikk...

Sharik: "Hey You know our school is reopening"

Aarvi: "Ohhh yeahhh am so happy and excited finally"

Sharik: "Don't get too excited Miss.... The life there is not so easy"

Aarvi: "And I don't like easy things either"

Sharik: "Yeah yeah Aarvi Rajput but still if you need any help...let me know.... Even if someone try to hurt you tell me.... "

Aarvi: "Hahha!!! Don't worry I can handle them single handedly but still Thanku for your offer"

Sharik: "Ohhhhhooo hmm hmm in friends no thanks no sorry"

Aarvi: "Ohh shit!!! I forgot sorry sorry I mean no sorry"

And all of them started clapping there hand and I got out if my thoughts...

I talked to him during lockdown....

First this janaab said that people like me deserves the list of Jericho ( stupid) in WhatsApp group chat... Akdhoo kahi kaa!!!

And then one day a message came to me with unknown number.... Hey!!!

He didn't told me about his identity for whole one day.... And I named him as

Mr. Anonymous...

Afterwards he told me that he is Sharik... The same person who called me stupid..... Us time agar phone se ghuskar kisi ki jaan lene wala option hota toh shayad yeh prani aaj zinda na hote... Khair.... Inka good luck....

And after talking to him for sometime.....

I realized he's nice insaan... Little khadoos and akdhoo but overall he's sweet and helping....

Atleast not like other boys who get into argues just for showing... Dekh muje tujhse zada aata hai...

kitna fenkega!!!!! Yahi nikalta hai mere muh se unki baatein sunkar.....

I looked at him back and he was already looking at me... Shayad!!! I was not sure... And he suddenly started looking other side..... What was that????

Okk He was handsome too... With sexy beard and messy hair.... Dark brown eyes and thick eyelashes... Even darker than me!!! His hair were falling on his forehead uffff.....Kdrama ke hero wali feeling de raha hai... I gulped looking at him when he slide his hand through his hair.....Haaayeee!!!! He was wearing blue stuffy zipper.... With black trouser...

Hmm guys don't take it otherwise... Am a good observer....!!! *wink*

And Avni shaked me.... Aarvi!!! Where are you lost!!! Come... Line up...

"Huh!! Yeah" Stop it Aarvi... And I smacked my head with my palm and followed them back to hostel...

It was a wide road and on its one side... There was line of girls walking back to hostel and on other side girls were walking.....

And in between there were teachers....

I was talking with Ruhi... Avni... And Riya... And laughing at some joke they said and my attention was again caught by Sharik... Walking side by side with me... Was this a coincidence???? Yeah of course Aarvi.. What else it would be.... He was not looking at my side.... At least when I was looking at him and was talking with his friends....

And we reached our girls hostel and went inside.....
