THE DECISION THAT CHANGED OUR LIVES

CHAPTER - 7 TALE CONTINUES

" ok Roopak go for it, " said Adi and I sat there thinking who is this Aravind I have never heard of him. Well will see who is this.

After sometime Roopak bhaiya entered with a good looking man he was not tall but tall enough and well his eyes were his attraction. He came and greeted every one of us. Then we were set for the scene reading and everyone took up there position well to be truthful I was a bit uncomfortable with him come on we are complete strangers and I am no professional actor.

" hmm Juhita right " that call broke me out of my trance

" ah yeah "

He chuckled at my response "well let's begin once again my name is Aravind people close to me call me Aaru, and will you be my friend " he paused and looked at me and then pointed towards his oh wait he has raised his hand for a handshake I smiled at his frankness seems like he is an extrovert, and I thought why not this would definitely reduce this awkwardness between us, I shook his hand.

"I am Juhita and everyone I know call me Juhi " he smiled at that

After this we had our scene practice and thankfully it was no more awkward in fact I did enjoy doing the scenes especially those romantic scenes there was some sort of comfort level with him

Days passed and our practice session increased so did our interactions I liked spending time with him, well now he has become the first person to whom I share my day to day happening and the same goes with him.

"Oh god, why did this have to happen now, We practiced so well! " I heard Gayu yell and turned to see everyone gloomy in the hall.

"What happened don't we have to practice "

"Juju didn't you hear the news that the fest is been postponed after the sem break," Aaru said, yip guys, he calls me that, someway I like it, it feels different.

" well that's bad why did they have to postpone it now"

" well they have some other workshop that day from the gov so it was either preponed it or postponed and all the seniors and the college chairperson asked to postponed and since they are the outgoing students and it was a mass decision they postponed the event after sem break.

 Hey guys cheer up now I think we need to respect this decision and we would get to practice more and no more deadlines, Alley come on let's get to the canteen anyhow after some time we would be busy with the sem and after that, we could relax and rock the play, well today it's my treat. Let's get to the canteen Kaku might be waiting with those yummy samosas Gayu... " with that every one of us was back to there cheerful self this is something I liked and admired about Aaru he clearly knows to bring best out of any situations. And he is a good observer and knows how to peruse someone well.

" Madam if you are done zoning out then can we get to the canteen I am famished " ya he never left a chance to tease about this zoning out habit of mine.

" well yes we may " I played along he smiled at me and we left to fill our stomach.

Days passed and soon arrived our sem exams I am really tensed so is Gayu, Alley seemed fine well Aaru called me before the exam and wished me luck so did ruhi papa and mama this continued for all my papers somehow I feel something more than just like towards him, he feels like family to me, oh god I don't know I feel lonely when I don't talk to him. He makes me feel special keeping all this thought aside I walked towards our gang.

" hmm juju how was your exam? " He asked me and I could feel that there is something more he wanted to add on.

" It went well, do you want to ask me anything aaru?"

" ok I need a favor from you please don't say a no pleaseee"

" ok what is it that you want "

" well hmmm can you just say the girl that's in your class Akshaya that I am in love with you please"

" ya okay " but somehow I felt bad that he choose Akshaya over wait.. did he just propose me I turned back immediately to see him on his knees oh god!

" juju I am in love with you for long now I mean the first time I saw you I felt something unusual and then we became friends I got to know you more and that confirmed these weird feelings  so juju will you be mine" and I don't know when I nodded my head and he tied a bracelet in my hand which read juju I smiled at that. Finally I got my share of a love story.

" oh my my juju and juju's aaru do whatever you want please leave my virgin eyes from this " she repeated the same dialog

" for a fact Gayu I know that eyes of yours are not pure " I teased her and she blushed looking at roopak bhaiya and I found him blushing slightly too, how cute!

" well Aravind it's your treat today finally got your love man" Roopak Bhaiya said

I and Gayu looked at both of them suspiciously

Well, he then told me that he saw me even before the drama could begin so i guessed that he might be the one whose glimpse i saw that day.

The day of the drama we were appreciated for our roles but at the end of the drama, i literally cried the thought that we would ever break even if that was a drama did hurt me that's when I realized how deep I was in this.

Days continued I so wanted to tell about this to least Ruhi but then he asked me to wait because he wanted to talk to my parents and before that he wanted to be financially stable. Well he comes from a village and it was the same place we used to live before the partition I wanted to know more about his family but he wanted some time to open up to me about them and I readily give him that.

PRESENT

Ruhi Pov

After I heard all about di and Aravind bhaiya though I was sad that I missed all these, the reasons Aravind bhai had told proved that he is a true man. After that I met Di's friends and Aravind Bhaiya , he was very friendly and brotherly I liked him. 

After that Ashok chachu came and I left with them, but throughout the journey, I was thinking about what had happened within these past 12 hours, I must say there was really a script for a movie there. The couple that I liked the most was Gayu di and Roop jiju they were so cute bickering and all but with Aravind bhaiya though I liked him there was something off about the idea of him and di together, maybe this are my insecurities. Di started sharing everything with him and not me maybe that is it.

 I think I need to stop thinking its lot for a single day with that thought we reached chachu's place.
