In my little world ( Completed )

HIGH ON CLOUDS

Anjana's narration :

We went inside the train. Wish I could have got a seat beside Achyuth, but missed the chance 😥 and had to settle with Ziya ( Pankaj's girlfriend) and Sapna ( Preethi's friend ). Rest of them got their seats beside our berths. There's a lot of silence in this AC couch and I being jobless walked to the washroom just to see what other people were doing 😉. Some of them are reading novels, rest of them busy with their mobiles . Pk was sleeping happily on the upper berth with no tensions, on the other hand Achyuth was lying opposite to him doing office work on his laptop.
************
In the evening pk came to us after a long nap and asked us to join the dumbcharades which he has planned. All the 3 of us went to the adjacent berths where Rajesh, Preethi, Pankaj, Harshdeep ( Rajesh's Friends ) were sitting.
"we will start the game but no screaming, got it ?!" said Rajesh to which we all agreed. Everybody was eager to play except the one sitting on top i.e, Mr. Achyuth. 8 of us were divided into 2 teams, the South (myself, pk , Rajesh and Preethi ) Vs. North ( rest of the people - Pankaj and team )
It started silently but as the game went on our excitement and anxiety reached peaks and started shouting despite Rajesh trying hard to control us. Although other passengers were giving serious looks at our behavior, we didn't care. 😛
Rajesh and Preethi had another level of communication where Rajesh could understand what Preethi was doing and they were playing very well. But our team had great pk who doesn't know Hindi very well and was struggling to enact, which made us lag behind the north team.
For this reason I was chosen to act.
'Shudh Desi Romance' Pankaj whispered in my ears. " No, give me another one " I yelled as I felt awkward to explain the movie.😲 'Ragini MMS ' this stupid Pankaj made me even more embarrassed than before and I selected the first movie itself.
Awkwardly wierd shyness was obvious on my face and scratched my head on how to enact. I started describing the movie with a concept which I'm sure nobody would have ever thought of.😁 They came to know that the movie had 3 words. I acted by sweeping and then pointed at the floor to convey it as 'clean' the synonym of Shudh.
For the second word I put a namaste and a salute to indicate our country India - desh.
To enact Romance, I stretched out my hands for an imaginary hug in the air to which Achyuth suddenly looked straight into my eyes and raised his eyebrows. His gesture added extra embarrassment and I shifted my gaze down onto floor.😌
These people went on completely wrong track and told, " Swach Bharath abhiyan ". I tried very hard to explain but these people couldn't guess.
"Is it Sudh Desi Romance ?" we heard a voice from the top which was from Achyuth. "Yeah " I said.
"How did you say that ?" asked Rajesh, the doubt which everyone had. "I understood cleaning, India and intimacy which she was trying to explain and connected them" smiled Achyuth. Is he observing me ? How did he guess it correctly when it made no sense to rest of them ? Is there some ill defined understanding between us ? I wondered.😆

" Sir, why don't you take a break and join us ?" asked pk. "No thanks man " he said and continued his work. "You won't get a point for this " said Pankaj as if I was going to cry for loosing ! 😏
***********
We reached Guwahati early in the morning, from where we travelled further to Shillong.
Day 1 :
It started with impressive elephant falls, living root bridge and ended with the spectacular clean and green Dawki lake. The feel of this pure cool breeze on closing the eyes, was enough to say that we came out of the big bustling  Delhi city. Captivating beauty of the landscapes, drizzling clouds constantly creating a marshy land - It was called meghalaya ( place of clouds ) for a reason. Achyuth's presence made it look more amazing. 😍
Day 2 :
Next destination is Manipur, for which we have travelled for 15 long hours. Rajesh added another 2 hours to it saying that he planned a unique place to stay that night. It was an island on a lake called loktak. I was dead tired and slept to wake up the next day  watching the  sunrise. 🌅
Day 3:
I was the first person to get up in the morning and went out of the room. The moment I stepped on the land there was a wobbling mud under my feet made of biomass. How nature could create such miracles !! "You saw this ? We're actually floating " said pk jumping on the land. " Oy ! Stop jumping it might break when you apply extra force." I said and started searching for the mobile network signals.
" These people are lucky ! With water everywhere, they can happily get to eat fish whenever they want. Akka (sister) why don't we try to catch a fish now ?" asked pk. 😄
"How can you do that without a fishing net ?"I questioned.
" What's the need of a net, when pk can go inside  and convince the fish to come out ?" said Achyuth who came out to see the lake. 😁
" Hi sir " I wished him and laughed out at pk. " I can't swim. Or else you people would have had fish fry by this time " joked pk. 🐟
" Do you have signals in your phone ? I want to make an urgent call " I asked pk to talk to my brother who was going to give his exam. "I have network but my battery is CRITICALLY low. It's getting charged" replied pk. 🙆
I was trying very hard roaming in all directions to find the weakest signal possible. "You'll fall down and end up somewhere in search of that non-exsiting signals. You can use my phone " said Achyuth. "Are you sure ?" I hesitated. "Yeah. Take " he gave his mobile. I walked to a distance and made the call after taking Achyuth's mobile. 📱
By the time, I finished my call there was no one around. Intentionally or unintentionally I saw his wallpaper,😝 which had a woman, on whom Achyuth wrapped his arms. Might be his mother ! She looked cute and pretty like him.👸
I was confused on how to return his phone and searched everywhere. Finally found him on the backyard chatting with an old lady. How are these people communicating when they don't know each others language ? Achyuth there, he is capable of anything. 😊
"Coffee ?" asked Achyuth as soon as he saw me. ☕
"No thanks. Don't you want your mobile ?" I sat opposite to him.
"Of course " he answered sipping his coffee. "Why didn't you come back to take it ?" I asked lifting my eyebrows.
The emerging sun light, striking on his face made him look more handsome. "Anyway  you're going to return it to me.  Why should I worry ?" shrugged. Achyuth. 😃

I keenly observed his mobile flipping it back and froth," This LG mobile would  cost around half of my monthly salary. What if I sold it for money ? Are you not scared ?" wanted to know his inner thoughts. 😉
With wide eyed expression he said, "Anta scene ledu pilla neeku ( you're not that talented enough girl) also, it's not that hard to find a stolen mobile these days "
" You always find me talentless " I made a long face. 😞
He smiled, looking at me "It's sarcasm dude ! Do you want appreciation for doing wrong things ?" 😜
" Not like that. So you believe that I'm a good girl ?" I gave his mobile.
" Ha.. kind of " said Achyuth.
Glad that he has a positive opinion
which made me fly in air.👼
