మన మధ్య (In Between Us)

18 Bike ride 😍 friendship problems for Bondita

Bondita classmate Deepika is from Telugu state like her whereas Avanti and Sarat are from different States. 

Deepika: Bondita!?  your name doesn't look like you are from Andhra state.

Sarat: yeah I think your elders or ancestors belong to Bengali right

Bondita smiled and about  to tell that her origins are not from West Bengal but she kept quiet Recollecting that morning incident before starting to school her Anirudh bava  asked her not to reveal her details much to her friends for time being. We have to be careful until right time comes. She too agreed back at home.

Deepika snapped and asked her: Bondita..where are you? Come into sense

Bondita: Sorry Deepika

Deepika: By the way you didn't reply  us about you . Are you Bengali or from Andhrapradesh

Bondita: my father kept this name. I don't remember well but he used to say that our elders were used to stay in Bengal for many years we  and so kept this name. Even I am born in Calcutta

Abhijoy who is beside their row  bench Listened this and came forward with exciting voice: Hey are you from Bengal? Even I am also from Bengal. Nice meeting you Bondita..I am Abhijoy and forwarded his hand for handshake

Bondita casually gave handshake and wished : Hi Abhijoy and she too gave handshake but his grip is tightened didn't leave her hand immediately. And his  nails were slightly piercing  her

She remembered her bava lesson of good touch and bad touch. And thought why is he not leaving me.

At first  She tried to remove her hand telling excuse me  but he didn't leave and asked her : I am so happy to find a Bengali friend here. Really fed up of these other state boys  you  can ask me whatever help you want . Where do your ancestors used to stay in Bengal Bondu? 

Bondita became serious and jerked away her hand forcely and told : See Abhijoy ! . Belonging to one state doesn't mean that you can be touchy touchy with me.  True friendship doesn't look about place it only needs honesty and truthfulness
. 

By the way  I am not Bondu...my Name is Bondita. Unless I believe persons I can't give lenience to anyone to call me with nicknames. so if you please excuse me I will go and sit and went back to her seat and sat furiously

His face color is drained by her act and back bench his bench boys are laughing at him. Just then teacher came and started taking class

Sampath another classmate commented to Abhijoy: That girl is too tough yaar leave her

Abhijoy: How dare she is to jerk away my hand. These backbenchers have laughed at me. I will see her.

Classes are going smoothly and from higher class 11th std Rahul and Varun came in lunch break who are also her  apartment residents  to have a glimpse of her as they  just saw that day morning in their  apartments . They Introduced themselves and told that they all belong to same apartments and tried to speak with her . She too wished them with a smile

They both asked about her parents. She didn't reply properly at first and thinking what to answer her face color is draining at the mention of her parents.

But when they insisted to know about her parents she told that they are in foreign country went on an urgent business work will come back soon.

Abhijoy is also listening carefully.

Varun asked : who is that man with you ? Is he your brother

She immediately told shooking her head : He is my bava. My cousin.. she didn't like that idea of calling her bava as her brother
