Gazing from Beyond the Clouds
"What shall we do now, Jyorta?" Rishana fidgeted around, feeling tense. It was easy to do something or even take a test. But now that she had nothing to do, she was unable to endure it.
"Get some sleep," Jyorta closed his eyes, "The Graduation Ceremony would span for 24 hours. We would be fighting to our limits the entire time and wouldn't get even a second of rest."
"But…" Rishana darted glances at his face, etching the image in her head as she spoke, "I feel nervous. Can you hold my hand until I relax? I think that would help me fall asleep immediately."
Jyorta opened his eyes, cheerfully smiling at her as he inched his left hand towards her, slowly making his thumb and index finger touch each other.
Seeing that he was about to snap his fingers, Rishana waved her hands, "N-No, I am fine. I was asking for Sreshta. You know how shy she is."
