Chapter 1
See told you predicted time se pehle update karungi. Here I present you the first chapter of this SS. While reading this chapter keep in mind Namik and Nikita in their teenage years, and not Vishal and Palak.
Song - Tu Hai To I'll Be Alright
Seating on the couch, watching the interviewer giving instructions to the cameraman, all he could sense was that same jasmine scent she used, enveloping him again after three long years. He closed his eyes and inhaled the scent. A blur, smiling face with pearl bindi on forehead, lips coated with tint red moving up and down, sayin something.
"Sir". Anshika called him.
He opened his eyes and smiled the way Anshika was looking at him. She maybe finding me weird'. He thought. He was quiet familiar with seeing people looking at him this way, as he was an alien.
Anshika cleared her head clearing the suspect of him being mentally unsound because that's when people smile to themselves.
Shravan voiced out an apology and Anshika responded with a smile.
"So should we start the interview?". She asked.
Shravan nodded affirmatively.
"Writing world main aapki inspiration kaun hai ?" she asked half -heartedly.
Shravan looked at her for a while and then answered. "Earnest Hemingway".
"Aap pehle lawyer voh bhi India ke best aur ab aap writer hai voh bhi sadi ke best, har cheez ke zenith pe rehna aapka shauk hai ya kabiliyat?"
"Thanks for the appreciation. Lekin I don't accept the comment of which I am not capable of , 5 books likkhi hai bas logo ko pasand aa gayi, its all about the audience you are writing the book for." He responded confidently.
"Certainly logon ko sirf voh cheese pasand aati hai jo acchi ho." She responded.
Question after question and then finally Shravan what he noticed about the way she was talking.
"Anshika manta hu ki ab lawyer nhin raha lekin ek time pe tha, ab bhi pehchaan sakta hu logo ke facial expression, puccho jo actually puchna chati ho." He stressed the word actually'.
"Sir, I don't know but shaayad yeh mere currier ka last question ho sakta hai." She said unsurely.
Shravan chuckled seeing her exhaling vigorously.
"Pushkar sir ne mujhe clearly mana kiya hai ye baat pucchene se lekin jab tak pucch nhin leti to aur kuch nhin soch paungi. Who's SUMO?". She closed her eyes expecting an outburst after the several warnings she received from Pushkar to not ask this question.
Shravan looked a bit taken aback not by her audacity to ask a personal question but after hearing the word SUMO , her NAME, he hadn't heard it much in the previous 3 years, 3 long years. That blur image which had danced across his eyes a while ago became clear as water. Those cheerful big brown eyes and the smile to die for. It was SUMO, his SUMO.
When she didn't hear him she opened her eyes and continued. "Main aapki har book padhti hu aur Aap apni har book main last main FOR SUMO' likte hain, jabse pata chala ki main aapka interview le sakti hu, to yeh question dimaag main ghum raha hai, lekin aaj aane se pehle Pushkar sar ne mujhe yeh sawaal pucchne se bilkul mana kar diya, agar aap answer nahi dena chahte to its ok." She said and curled her toes nervously.
"4 letter ka word hai SUMO." He said looking down and then looked back at her. "4 letter ka word hai LIFE ." He paused. "Bas yeh hai mere liye sumo."
Anshika kept her hand on the camera lens and dragged it down, telling the cameraman to stop shooting and lowered her mike, so that he was more comfortable in spilling his best kept secrets.
"Where did it all begin?" she asked keeping the mike aside and assuring him that his secrets will only be till her no more, no less.
Shravan let out a helpless chuckle. "Main to yeh bhi nahi keh ki humaari shuruaat kahan se hui, hum shuru se hi 'hum' the main ya tu' nahin."
*****flashback
It's the 40th founding day of MCS, everyone is excited to see what coming next on stage. That's when a well-built and pale boy entered the stage wearing a black suit, looking too handsome to be a school boy and holding a guitar in his hand. No one seemed to be unaware to that face, because supposedly everyone knew the head boy, Shravan Malhotra or also called every girls dream.
The fact that amused everyone was the guitar in his hand instead of a book or a basketball because him being the captain of the school basketball team and the best academic student, no one had ever seen him with any musical instrument and that's what made him nervous. His fingers had been trembling until he heard a loud whistle from the side of the stage, resounding in the auditorium, and when looked at the whistle bearer, it was no one other than the best dancer of school, Suman Tiwari and his best friend standing in a princess gown wishing him luck and mouthing an encouraging GO FOR ITwith her million dollar smile.
He didn't knew how her glistening smile brought one on his and, the courage pulled up in him and he started playing the guitar on the instrumentals of Count On Me.
The crowd roared applauses for this unseen side of his, but the most audible one was hers until the dance teacher pulled her to the backstage.
She entered the stage in a frushian pink gown amid the baby pink ones. She was as always the lead of the dance and gave a mesmerizing performance to say the least. Even If she hadn't danced well, her angelic looks where always there as a backup.
When the program ended Shravan went to the changing room and waited for her to come out. She came out after some time saying bye to her girlfriends kissing on their cheeks and came to him.
"Hi" she greeted him siping onto her hot chocolate as they started walking towards the chauffer driven car.
"Kya Hi itna late kar diya tumne, agar do minute late ho jati na to main stage choddh kar bhaag jaata." He said faking anger not looking towards her as if he does she will, she will immediately catch his mischief.
"Sorry na, Voh Ms.Superna mujhe kheech ke le gayi thi, aur agar tumhe aise sadha hua hi rehna hai to, ye gaya tumhaare haath se." she said making him look down at another cup of hot chocolate she had prepared for him.
He tried to reach out to it but she had already paced away to the car and he followed her giggling and laughing along with her.
"Sumooo, rukkooo" He shouted.
*****flashback
Anshika smiled along with him, hearing about who seemed his sole existence, and wanted to know more.
To be continued...
Thoughts? This chapter was a trailer to what's coming next, that is a mixture happiness and sorrow.
love,
Arpita😊
