Darn! The whole college was looking like a dustbin. One day of celebration , Noise+Air and whole environment polution. Cant people celebrate Diwali decorating litchi lights? That'd be more peaceful! Ughh!
'Cursing again lady'? I heard the husky playful voice that sharply made my head turn opposite,'Just admit it! The world isnt responsible for God knows what your problem is', he added later with a bit of sarcasm mixed in his tone well that was a bit of hamless sarcasm, I knew it.
'You are not supposed to know anything about my curse , still it is not the world but whole college population responsible for this trash...', I looked around with disgust.
'And tell me why do you think you are the only one that can wipe the worlds dirt and made it a spotless sheet', now he has a misconception.
'I dont think... Its my duty..', he half opened his mouth for another reply then raised a brow questioninG, 'Duty'?
'Cultural Sect. duty'!!! Yes it was my duty to look after everything that was related to previous night celebration but unfortnatley I was not there completeing my duty and as a punishment my ever so lovely princi ordered me to clean the whole stuff with Assts.
He just gave a slight nod and rolled his eyes looking around. There were my asst. secretaries and most probably cursing me in their mind for the extra work they are doing just because of me. I should apologise and most importantly they are hell tired of working the night and the morning too.
'Guys '!! I called out aloud, 'Pack up'!! And I declared the day off for them. They were not that grateful formy action but well they were relived.
'You're sure you'd do it all alone'? Asked Sameera, my classmate as well as my asst.
'Yeah sure..you guys need rest! And I really am sorry about last night..', I couldnt ever explain them why I was absent but atleat I owe an apology to them.
'Its okay Riya, take care..' , she said and the rest of them followed her out of the field. He was still there watching it all and I felt his tensed and he started kicking the plastic bottles.
'Dare you try to make my work double..', I stomped my feet annoyed , as he truely was trying to mess around again with what I was doing.
'Ops..I am sorry, I didnt realise..' he fumbled with words, and I found him in deep thinking. And I resumed my cleaning work.
It is for some time I felt his eyes upon mine, they lingered there for a long time ..still I could not interrupt but he did !
'So'? He tried to start a conversation and I knew what is coming up, this time I was ready for it..ready for not to run away. Not at least from my own being. Yes its now fun proving him wrong! I . Am . Not . A . Coward! Though I understood his intention behind the words he used. He used to provoke me. To push me the extent , when I wont anymore be able to run away from my own being. And I truely would thank him one day for doing this but not now.
'So'? i raised a brow, 'What'? I waited for him to come up with words, because honestly I have stopped thinking about it. I needed a space and I am having it so I didnt need to think anything that would mess everything again.
'What did you think about last night'? He asked hesitated may be was not with what word he should up with.
'Nothing! It was ..erm..gross', I couldnt perfectly came with the word I wanted to use but instead this. He as expected didnt believe me and started throwing me those unbelieveable looks.
'It really was..and bit more brutual , absurding , insensitive and more likely unconvincing...', I was on a spree telling him and no words came out of his mouth. The horror of his face told me too many things. As if he is going to lose something very big..as if he was brutually being kept away from what he was craving..longing for a long time..he was breaking. 'You could have make it ..but you didnt and I liked that'. And I watched him relived..a deep sigh which told me how strained he was! If my later words would have left unspoken , I was sure the pain he was about to feel would have rip his muscles apart. For the first time, I paryed the almight for stopping me from doing something..something Like hurting him with my words. People say my words hurt! And I know it surely does. But I didnt want those same words to hurt him. And I realised it because I . Do. Care!
Next moment was a shocking. How in a swift motion he pulled me in a breathe taking embrace. Yes force literally sucked the air out of my lungs. His breathing was not normal.
'I ...I felt..' he was panting badly.
'I felt as if I'll have a heart attack',
'I was just..', well I cant explain what exactly I was trying to do. I was more a selfish at that time, but I am not a sadist, still I do have a tendency to make people feel tha pain and the suffering at times I felt. And I couldnt forgive myself for doing any sort of that ! But I couldnt help doing that!Vampire-queen2014-11-05 07:49:13
