True friend....

"Adrick! Adrick! Adrick wake up! You slept here whole night? On my bed? "

"No.. no... you're taking it all wrong... I just didn't slept the whole night and I tried to sleep on Jia's bed but you screamed the whole night and I had to sit here... I don't know when I felt asleep here... anyways, are you alright?"

"How are you feeling? "

"Pretty good now.. I was just in a need of a sound and long sleep"....

" Thank God"

"Where's Jia"

"Just gone out for some work"

"Let's go and grab a coffee, you seem like a zombie to me" Nuri laughed

They went for a walk to the nearby coffee store and ordered 2 latte... something different from their usual orders.Nuri asked him to take rest as they had their 1st internals in one day for which Adrick agreed.

"By the way, does he, I mean your friend Amit shares everything with you? "

"Yeah, why? "

"Just asking.... everything I mean... his education, personal life, health.. everything? "

"Yeah everything... but why are you asking these weird questions? "

"Nothing much"

"Strange"

"Do you have a crush on him? you can just share with me... I had this intuition the day you two talked to each other for the 1st time"

"Oh no no no no... I am straight as hell.. interested in girls... not Amit but I could be interested in you if you want?"

"Stop flirting" Nuri blushed... I'll just inform you the day I'll be interested in you.... till then try your luck on me"she winked

"Ummm.. challenge.. is it?

" Whatever you think Mr."

"I think the medicinal shots have gone through your head Nuri, you don't look normal"

"I am normal just wanted to flirt a little with you, anyways I have to call my brother...excuse me"

She called Ariket and after discussing the whole life updates suddenly Ariket changed to a deeper tone.

"Do you even mind picking up Amit's calls... I know you have your so called friend with you... but what's wrong with you... I told him about your health... you picked up maa and Baba's calls and mine too but what about your friend? your best friend? your only friend Nuri?"

"Noting's wrong with him huh? he didn't even bother to call me... stop lying with those words Ariket"

"I didn't tell him all those days but when I told him yesterday he didn't even asked what had happened instead he called you... you know how many times? 167 times... I know the exact no.... we didn't have that guy's and your roommates no. so he stayed up all the time just to see if you were ok.. but who cares... you go enjoy with that best friend of yours"

"But Ariket... I didn't even received a single call last night... I would have called back.. give him the phone I'll talk to him"

"No, no need to talk to him...i won't allow him even he wants to....you go and talk to your golden friend who you're crushing on... but remember running behind that gold won't give you the diamond you have lost today".

He cut the call. The next moment there was almost a rain of tears from her eyes.

"What happened Nuri... why are you crying??"

"Will you just reply? "

"No... I'll not and you better go away from here"

"But why"

"I said go away... I just don't wanna see you... get lost Adrick get lost" She weeped and weeped

Adrick didn't uttered a word and went away from her looking at back with each step he took forward.

She called Jia and told her everything.

"He didn't even call... and I didn't know what happened to Ariket today... why did he overreact"

"Maybe he called and it didn't show up..

why would he lie?"

"I don't know... I just don't feel like staying here.... I just didn't feel like talking to anyone Jia....i want to go home..I just want to go home"she weeped into Jia's arms.

" Stop weeping and think you're currently living the dream of many youngsters, Nuri... This is Harvard, a dream university of almost everyone... who doesn't want to study here and that too with full scholarship? you're living the dream Nuri.... get up and work hard you need to get that dream job the same way you got this dream Institute.... Get up we need to study now... Come on!"

Jia took Nuri to washroom made her wash her face and took her to library... Nuri was much energetic now exactly the motivation she needed... She realised Jia was her true friend today and she loved her for this...

Adrick knew exactly what had happened and he cried at the corner of his room, feeling guilty of what he did.... Yes! he was the one to delete those 167 calls from Nuri's cell using her fingerprint.....
