It is early morning, Sanskar is driving Riddhima to Cambridge Highschool.
" So, are you excited for your first lesson?" Sanskar asked.
" Yeah, but I'm very nervous...I have never taught final year college students..." Riddhima said with an ever so cute nervous expression ; enlarged eyes and lips with a small pout.
How can anyone be that cute? Even the way she's nervous is adorable...And I can't even imagine students giving her a hard time... They just have to love the way she is!!... Sanskar thought while stealing glances of Riddhima.
" Uhm...Riddhima just be confident. I'm sure you will do a great job and will never forget your first lesson!" Sanskar replied with an encouraging smile.
But what if I can't ?? What if the students don't trust my teaching...What will I do if they misbehave with me...? Riddhima thought while biting her lower lip in fear.
Sanskar looked at her and couldn't stop staring.
Uff... Why is she so tensed???.. She's really testing me now... And why can't I stop myself from looking at her...What's wrong with me...
Soon they reached the school and Sanskar gave Riddhima her schedule.
" I have to go, teaching time for me. Good luck for your lesson and don't be nervous!" Sanskar smiled.
" Thank you Sanskar." Riddhima smiled back as she saw him walk away.
My first lesson starts in an hour... I think I should walk around and explore this enormous school.
Cambridge Highschool is beautiful. It is built on a hill and the view from it's peak is like heaven on Earth. There are only two places where students love to hang out ; The forest-like park and the canteen.
Wow...This park is beautiful...All the flowers and trees... The birds singing and the chilly wind breeze. It's all so perfect. Surely...There are lots of couples here too... How can this be allowed in such a reputated school?
Armaan's band was also in the park, chatting and enjoying themselves unaware of Riddhima.
" That Sapna is such a pain man!! I can't stand her..." said Armaan with a frown.
" She looks gorgeous when she's mad at you yaar! ( Friend ) Her cheeks flushing in red with anger!! Mar Jawan!!" ( Killing ) replied Rahul.
" Anyways...I'm going to the class early today... Need to review some notes before that N-E-W teacher comes..." Armaan reminded Rahul.
" Hahaha..Impress karne ki koshish kar raha hai?? ( Trying to impress her?? ) Good good...See ya later dude." Atul said mischieviously.
***
Riddhima looked at her watch. Wow time flies! I still haven't finished exploring the park..Anyways I better get going! Actually..I need to rush!! I still don't know where the classroom is...
Riddhima was running while taking out her books and notes for the lesson. Not paying attention she bumped into someone's back really hard. The force was so strong that both of them fell onto the soft wet grass. Riddhima had her eyes closed as she was still in pain.
Ouch...What have I done...This hurts so bad... Why was I even running like crazy?.. I'm so stupid.
Armaan looked up to see who she was without realizing that his arm was around her waist and all her body weight was on him. Actually she was so light and barely half of his size that he could hardly feel the weight. Her long smooth black hair was covering most of her face, so Armaan brushed it away with his other hand gently, not wanting to scare her even more, only to find a girl with pale flawless skin in front of his eyes. He could feel her beautiful scent around him, feel her heartbeats along his chest increase rapidly when he removed her hair from her face. He could also feel her breaths on his face, the smell was just sending a shiver down his spine.
Oh my gosh.. Am I day-dreaming?? Is she REAL? How can someone be that tiny. Gotta admit she's very pretty and innocent with her eyes still closed.. Ow...She's gripped my arm so tight and won't let go.. Is she alright..?
" Mhmm...You can get off me now..." His sweet voice alarmed her and she opened her eyes ; startled. More like lost in his eyes.
But she didn't move, she lay there on top of his hard chest and she looked down and observed him. His gorgeous dark blue eyes had that spark which reminded her of the night blue sky full of stars. His skin was maybe just a shade darker than hers but was as smooth and flawless as hers. Yes...He is handsome no doubt.
Armaan didn't mind it either. He too lay there onto the soft grass supporting all her weight, no matter how much it hurt him. He was in another world. Suddenly, the bell rang and shocked both of them.
Riddhima quickly got up to her knees and gathered her books. He got up and was gathering his books too. Suddenly Riddhima noticed that Armaan's arm was slightly bleeding.
" Your arm is bleeding..It's all because of me..I'm so sorry." She looked at him with such sincerety and he could guess that she really meant it. She tore part of her dupatta ( scarf ) and wrapped it around his muscular arm.
" Thanks...I have to go now... See ya later." Armaan quickly ran away.
Who was he.. I even forgot to ask his name! Such a nice person...And how stupid am I .. What a fool... I better go to my classroom too... Riddhima thought.
I wonder who that girl was... Her voice was angelic...And the way she was scared...Never saw her before in the school. Maybe she's a new student! Gotta tell Rahul about it. Armaan figured. .-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~.-~
