Man proposes ….God disposes
However hard saira tried to attend to classes….she was left with the same fate everytime
She did talk to the class co-ordinator Arora maam …who somewhat sympathized with her …seeing her past performances in class but she too wanted to atleast discuss with her parents …about these issues …
After much pleading ..she agreed that if only her mom comes to meet ..there wont be a problem …N saira sort of felt relieved that her Dad wont know about anything…after dis she went to the library to get her books issued …she dint do it till then naa…found out all the things she missed …frm assignments to important notes…n sat in one corner of the library n began doing her assignments …
The guy who sat on the opposite side of the table kept on staring at her …now u can understand ..when one is concentrating on something …n somebody is constantly staring … it becomes really frustrating ..Saira first tried to ignore but after sometimes it began getting on her nerves ..
" Kyun bey ….ladki nhi dekhi aajtak "…she asked showing off her seniority but as she seldom attended to classes ..the guy obviously dint noe that she is frm the final year…
" dekhi hai …par aapke jitni khoobsurat nahi …"…the guy smiled flirtatiously
Saira got further irritated
" Nayee hain …college mein …" ….he continued still smiling
" saalaa chenp!!" …she muttered under her breath n then tried to get up frm the place as soon as possible
The guy was liking it that she is getting so affected …so he tried the newest punchline on the gurl …
" Aapko dekh ke lagaa… k aap sar se paon tak meri hain ….Chappal chhodke"
Just then Vidit entered the library …n he heard him …he looked in the other direction to locate the gurl on which such punchline was maaroed…
Saira had had enough
" Chal saale chappal to chhod di naa tune …kyunki ab ussi se MAIN TERA SAR TODNE WAALI HUN " …. Her eyes went murdereous
N instantly …the kolaapuri was hit hard on the guy's head …. Bichare ko din mein taare nazar aane lage

Sandal .sandal sandal sandal..saaandaaal
As this happened in fractions of second …vidit's mouth was jus open …aaa
seeing this the librarian came running….. he was a grumpy old man .. he was seeing this frm some distance n was jus coming to them to order them to KEEP SILENCE…but he never expected something like this …he just cud not suppress his laughter…but as saira was angry …so she dint like him laughing like dat …
" aey buddhey….jyada hass mat …tere mooh ke keedey baahar aa jayengey"…she roared
The old man shut his mouth instantly …now whole of the library was in peels of laughter …. Even Vidit laughed …kya ladki hai
What can happen next …any guesses …haha …she was suspended from the library for a week for misbehaving …n her library card was seized
Kahan to aayi thi assignment karne …n kahan ye pangey kar liye …she certainly had temper issues thought Vidit …
There was a small temple near the college …. At that temple …TEACH INDIA campaign used to take place ..where slum children were taught … Saira used to do that in her free time ….as she liked the place n also the idea of teaching the needy gave her high …made her feel that at least she is doing something worthwhile
Today as she was in really bad mood after the library incident …she went straight to the temple … it was 3'o clock …so she thought …she wud spend sumtime near the temple n then by 5 ….take metro n reach home in time …
Cool breeze was blowing …n the marble of the temple was cool n soothing … she jus sat there closing her eyes n started taking deep breaths …trying to relax
Then she thought about her mother ….her serence face …her kindness …she felt as if she was booned to have a mother like her …but somewhere she felt sad …for what she did …n also because …she missed her group ..she was sitting there alone …nobody besides her …not even Prachi …then she thought of Vidit ….he is nice …really genuine as prachi said …n he fights like a real action hero …her face lit up remembering that scene …then she thought …that after she fainted …how he might have taken her to her home …in his arms ….wow really …now she was blushing …a slight hint of red in her cheeks were visible …The powerpuff saira who never really liked the idea of making boy-friends was thinking bout a professor ..damn …but when the professor in question was so handsome …it wasn't really the gurl's mistake …then she thought how he forgave her …he is so sweet also…her mood was uplifted now …but then she remembered the library scene again …phew …I dun have to mention her expressions now …she opened her eyes n looked at bhagwaanjee as if she was complaining ..of why he made her remember that chenp library guy when she was thinking of her oh-so-sweet-n-hot professor.
Just then the priest came n gave her chrnaamrit n prashaad …as she came out of the temple … she saw Vidit making his way to the temple …he was almost 10 steps far…she ran back to the temple hurriedly ….n then smiled cheekily at bhagwaanjee
She was thinking of him n here he was coming to the temple …isn't it wow
She again stood in front of the statue closing her eyes n taking deep breaths as if she was meditating ..but actually her ears were focused on the incoming foot steps …then she heard someone removing shoes at the entrance ….n now her heart started thumping hard …y cant she be normal in his presence …today in the morning she forgot what she was going to say n now …her heart wanted to just break her chest n come out …why …she never felt like this before …except obviously when she as a kid saw Salman Khan in HUM AAPKE HAIN KAUN…now she began to curse herself …why she had to run back inside ..wat if the priest mentions that in front of him …it wud be so embarrassing
But even after 5 minutes …nobody entered the temple …she wondered what's wrong …she opened her eyes n looked in every corner ….he was no where…oh bad luck …then she stepped out of the temple …he was sitting on the stairs …his head down…n looked wearied
Now she was trying to start the conversation …wat she must say ….ermmm …oh shit …..oh god help me …sir …no …hey ….no …hello sir …oh forget it …lets go
Just as she made up her mind to leave…he looked up at her …n she froze… seeing her the library incident came in his mind ..n he jus laughed ….
" What ????"…she questioned
" Nothing!!" …. N he laughed again
" Ur laughing at me " ….oh saira was hurt …
" No no ….actually I remembered that guy's face …when u hit him with ur chappal " ….he relaxed himself n stretched saying so …smiling
" oh !!" …she was amused ..atleast he doesnot laugh at her ..thank god …
" I heard u gt suspended "…
" Yes sir …I shouldn't have behaved like that …but that idiot librarian was laughing at me …when I m angry …my brain stops working …I jus say anything …n see now m in trouble …they seized my library card too .. " …she herself cudnt believe how she managed to say such a long sentence ….with her tongue tied n not helping her much
" If that's a problem ..then I think I can help u " …he said after thinking something
" U take anger management classes?" ….she asked innocently
He laughed again
" Oh no …I ws talking bout the library card …I have one …in case u need"
" Really " … her face lightened like 100 watt bulb
" But …right now I dun have it … I can give u tomorrow …jus remind me once "…he made a sorry face ..
" Its ok sir …but how can I remind u ?" …nice question hehe ...
" Yeah …take my fone number …."
Now her face glowed like 1000 watt bulb …haha …she cud nt believe her ears …he gave her …his number …n she cud not believe her luck …
" ur not going inside the temple ??" …she asked after carefully putting her mobile inside her pocket after saving his number
" No …I like it here …U should not trouble God all the time " ….he said casually ..
" Oh !! I too think the same …" …she bit her lips ..why she has to act so absurd in front of him. Then trying to make up for it she added ..
" I come here becoz I teach these slum children …I m a part of teach India campaign" …. She proudly told him …
" Good "
" N u …why u came here ???"
" actually …I like to sit at some peaceful place alone ..when m nt feeling nice …"
" What happened ??" …she asked jus like dat …
" Nothing much …"
" U can tell me…may be I can help u ..U owe me a favour(library card hehe)" ….she was jus trying to keep the conversation going …hehe
" no …I can manage ..there is really nothing " …he wanted to open up to someone about his problem ..but he wasn't sure about Saira being the one …
" Its Ok if u dun want to tell me …but I can tell u how u can relax …when ur depressed…I do it all the time " …she was hoping that this conversation doesn't end soon
" Really ??" …he raised his brows …
She turned very enthusiastic …jus sat next to him …
" Ok …. U noe what I do wen I m feeling bad …I jus close my eyes …n think of a happy happy world ….all those things that make me happy …n I take deep breaths …n zooom ….My problems fly away " …saying this she shut her eyes n started taking deep breaths ..all this while she had a sweet smile on her face …
Seeing this innocent act …Vidit cudnt help smiling …then she opened her eyes n asked him to do so …
" But U should lead by example right … I mean what kinda happy world???"…he acted like he is her student ..trying to learn lesson frm maam
" Oh …ok…let me tell u bout my happy world ..then u l understand I think ( she closed her eyes again n began smiling ) ….Mumma is so happy …she is wearing the best clothes …n here I come …in my Rolls Royce…n the red carpet is laid …n there are so many people ..only looking at me …n my mom is waiting for me in a huge mansion like a queen …N like a princess I come out of the car n start running …n then comes my prince…"
She immediately opened her eyes..as she imagined Vidit as her prince haha …she saw him looking at her curiously with all the concentration ..she liked it …
" Then ???" ….he asked her …
" Oh !!...I was jus giving u example ..now u understood what a happy world is like ??"
" Yeah " …he enjoyed her kiddish talks
" Then try it …I promise u l feel better …"
" Ok" …
Now he closed his eyes thinking about his happy world …N she just sat there staring at him ….maaroing chance pe dance hehe
