...
Samrat's POV:
I quickly pulled on a clean pair of socks and slipped into my running shoes. Gunjan was running a comb through her hair in swift motions. I couldn't help but stare at her. She looked so pretty in the pure white Salwaar. I sighed dreamily. Gunjan frowned and turned around.
'Samrat, tumne mera friendship band kahin dekha kya? Kal tak tho yaheen thi.'
She looked at me confused. I smiled at her, still somewhere off in my dreamland.
' *Sigh*. Nahi.'
Gunjan looked at me strangely.
'Um Samrat?!' She waved a hand in front of my face. I quickly came out of my trance.
'Kya hua? Kahaan kho gayye the?' She asked.
I subconciously replied,
'Tumhe dekhkar tho koi bhi kho jaata.'
Gunjan looked surprised.
'Kuch kaha tumne?'
I shook my head.
'Nahi. Bas tum buhot khoobsurat lag rahi ho.'
she blushed a deep red.
'Thank u... ab chalein? Warna tumhaare match ke liye der ho jayenge.'
I nodded.
'Challo.'
I grabbed the room key and followed her out the door. Suddenly, I heard a loud buzz in my pocket. It was my cell phone. I picked up.
'Hello?'
It was my mother who spoke.
'Samrat beta? Aaj tumhaara match hai. Main bas tumhe good luck wish karne ke liye phone kar rahi thi.'
I clenched my teeth.
'Mujhe aap ki good luck ki koi zarurat nahi hai. samjhi aap?'
My mother didn't give up.
'Please Samrat. Hume ek mauka tho do! Main sab theek kar doongi. Waise bhi tum papa se naraaz ho na? Tho mujhpe kyun uthar rahe ho?'
I rubbed my temples, frustrated. I really didn't need this conversation in the morning.
'Please. Mujhe aap se koi baat nahi karni hai. Mera mood kharaab mat kejiye. Aur haan. Dubaara yahaan phone karne ke bhi koshish mat karna. Mujhe jaana hoga.'
I cut the phone before she could respond.
Gunjan smiled softly and placed a comforting hand on my shoulder.
'Main nahi poochoongi ke Maaji ne kya kaha. Main yeh bhi nahi poochoongi ke tumhaare family me kya problem hai. Main bas ye kahoongi ke agar tum kisi se baat karna chahte ho... tho tum mujhse kar sakte ho. Theek hai?'
I felt a wave of affection towards her. How could she be so understanding?
'Ok Chashmish... ab chalein? Mujhe match ke liye der nahi hona!'
She nodded and we left.
...
'Only one minute left and it's a tie! It's a fifty fifty chance! Who will win?'
Gunjan was tensed. She hoped Samrat's team would win. She bit her lip and gave a silent prayer.
The opposite team had the ball. Samrat covered him and somehow managed to grab the ball. He ran towards th net, with his opponent matching his every move.
Gunjan's hands felt clammy.
'Plz Samrat. Make the basket...'
she thought to herself.
'Only thirty seconds left!! This will be a close one! Will Samrat make the basket or hand it off to the other team??'
'shut-up!' Gunjan muttered. 'Ur making him more tensed.'
His opponent took the ball and raced towards the other end of the court. Samrat followed, not allowing him to pass.
He swiftly got the ball once more and ran up to his basket.
'5,4,3,2, and Samrat makes the basket! Looks like the Tigers win this one!'
Gunjan smiled happily and ran up to him. She hugged him tightly and laughed,
'Tum jeet gayye Samrat! Tum jeet gayye!'
Samrat lifted her and twirled her in the air.
'Haan Chashmish! Main jeet gayya!'
suddenly, Gunjan realized that she was in Samrat's arms. She knew she should let go but... there was a part of her that didn't want to. And Samrat felt the same way.
End.
