TEARS HURT LIKE SPEARS
It was finally the time for her to face the exam results. She had worked very hard this year as it was a critical time of her life- everyone had high hopes from her. Nupur Bhushan was the only one to wake up by 4:30 am in the Bhushan household.
When Gunjan came climbing down the stairs, she was shocked to see her sister in front of the houses' temple, on her knees before God. She made her conversation with God loud enough for her sister to hear. Gunjan stood still and listened to what was being demanded from God.
"God, I worked very hard this time ok? Everyone wants me to do very well this time as this is going to be a very important year for me which will decide my future ! God, if you make me pass with good marks then I will walk to the temple barefoo……no no , that will be too harsh for me na? Ok then if you make me pass with good marks then I promise never to ask you anything again please God", she begged God to listen to her.
Gunjan silently descended the stairs and went to her sister. "Di, I am sure you will pass, and why just pass, I am sure you will get really good marks. I have seen you study till late at night and hard work pays. Don't worry, God will definitely listen to you", she smiled at her elder sister encouragingly.
**********************************************************************************
In the college, everybody was crowded in front of the notice board. Nupur pushed them aside and went past the crowd. The names on the board were very familiar:
Mayank Sharma
Gunjan Bhushan
Karan Mitra
………..(few more)……..
Samrat Shergill
Dia Bhushan
Nupur was heartbroken, she tried hard to control her tears as she rushed towards an empty classroom. She buried herself in her arms and weeped bitterly. Just then, Mayank passed the room. He noticed a person who was hiding his face and got into the classroom. It was later that he realized that it was Nupur.
"Nupur! What happened? Why are you crying? Please don't cry Nupur, please don't", he was tensed. "Just leave me alone………. ", she managed to sob, making sure he does not see her face that had gone red with tears.
"Oh so you are upset about your name not on the list???", he asked. This made Nupur burst out loud ,"Yeah ! Are you happy now? I am already very tensed and you are here to make me feel worse? Can't you just do me a favor and leave? "
Her anger hurt Mayank. It pierced through his heart and soul. He could not see her like this. He was sure there must have been some mistake, she was sure to top! There had to be a mistake and he would go mend it! He left the room and stormed into the principal's cabin in anger, "Sir please hand me over a copy of the list in your computer!", he managed to say calmly.
"Which list Mayank?", the principal asked, confused.
"Sir, the list of people who topped the exams !!!", this time sounding a bit more harsh.
"Ok Mayank here it is", he said, taken aback by his best student's sudden change of tone. He quickly took a printout and gave it to Mayank.
Mayank analyzed it from top to bottom and asked , "Sir, but this is not the direct copy that the teachers mailed you, is it?".
"Well it is not, but what makes the difference? It has the same information, doesn't it?", he asked, surprised.
"I just need to look at the mail sir, please", he asked, calmly again.
A little pressing of buttons on the keyboard and a little clicking of the mouse, and Mayank was looking at the original copy of results. He exclaimed and was overjoyed at the mistake made by the college. He saw, just beside his name, there was Nupur's name written in big bold letters
He took a printout and ran to Nupur after pointing out the mistake to sir.
**********************************************************************************
Nupur was still the same, weeping. Mayank then passed a paper under the bench which was noticed by Nupur as she was facing the floor. She picked up the sheet of paper and saw her name on the list.
"M…M…..Mayank!!! ", she said overjoyed, and to the utmost shock of his, she hugged him tightly. Surprised at this unexpected hug, he stared at Nupur who whose cheeks were now moist. Hugging her back, he said, "Don't ever cry again……. Tears don't suit you". When he said this, Nupur looked up at him and broke his sentence, "Mayank I am really sorry for the way I behaved with you today. But this list……. How?".
Mayank told her about the mistake while she was still staring at him; he wasn't even sure whether she was listening or just staring at him.
Gunjan was at the door with Samrat and a little coughing by them made Mayur feel embarrassed again. Mayank excused himself to the library while Nupur stayed there, watching him go. Samrat left with Mayank to give Gunjan and Nupur some "sister time".
Gunjan hugged her "di" happily and their joy knew no bounds. Their hard work had paid off and their father would be overjoyed !
"Di, here, take your phone and dial bauji's number", said Gunjan, handing over the mobile to her. While Nupur was dialing the number on the mobile, Gunjan beamed, "Well Di, I was just thinking, you and Mayank would make an adorable couple…… ", said Gunjan , trying to tease her Di. This made the mobile drop out of her hands and Gunjan exclaimed," If you break your mobile this time again Di, it will be you who will face bauji, ok?".
Nupur smiled at her while thoughts of Mayank ran through her mind ….. She tried to stop those thoughts but finally gave away to them while silently thinking to herself, "Does he feel the same about me………….. ?"…………
