after one year
"where the hell are you?" he shouted,
"i am in class, can you hear me?" i whispered clearly on the receiver while the sociology professor blabbered during the lecture.
Arnav kept calling me, insisting it was an important news.
"important!" he shouted again,
finally anger took the best of me,
"i am in bloody class" i said exhausted, realizing only few seconds later how my voice has elevated the suggested decibel level and entered the category of loud and clear shout!
i was suppose to meet him at Saket, he stood right across the Buddy's store, gulping flavored milk.
"what are you? two years old?"
"and hi to you too" he said taking another sip ignoring my comment for the millionths time in one year we had known each other.
"Are you nuts? you called me in middle of the class, i shouted and professor won't be seeing me for one week!"
running my eyes around while entering the select city walk i complained,
"anyways what was so important?"
just as we entered i saw Neha and Vishal approaching,
last one year we four became a sort of family, Neha and Arnav the shy innocent dedicated ones, while Vishal and i were wild child. Thanks to these two i haven't got drunk since the last catastrophe. In fact this time Neha and Arnav went with me for the final document submission day, which wasn't the last day for admissions at all!
"is this therapy again?"
note:- as a group of idiots, which officially we four are, we had a therapy thing in which any three would raise a sensitive topic and fourth one would be hauled to speak about it. Previous sessions were related to Amita, Vishal trying to quit smoking , Neha's not so friendly geek squad and yeah most were just about me.
"don't you guys have a life?"
"don't heed, she is trying to escape this!" neha interjected while holding my hand and dragging me to the coffee shop...
"your dad is in the town!" Arnav said while we slunk to the corner table...
"heyyyy! ask for my hand in marriage...lucky for you, its the winter sale season!"
"seriously dude, she doesn't even want to...let this topic be skipped! "
Vishal said watching the frivolous display, i felt the burn again, i would rather choose to be made fun of then cry in front of these four and be pitied!
"nice suggestion, you ask!"
"we are talking and sketching a plan whether you like it or not!" Arnav looked straight to me, his voice had a scary firmness i dreaded...
