Guys..in every post you shall see some texts written in italics.. it is the diary entry of madhu...
:) Hope u guys like this post...
The mid terms came close and Madhu got busy with her studies. She kept a hot water kettle in her room so that the coffee supplies throughout the night could keep her awake while she studied. Maya chose to study in her room thinking if both of them would sit together and study; it would be more of talking and less of books. Madhu too had agreed.
Madhu would sometimes move to the library where Dylan would accompany her. They both helped each other. Meanwhile other students from class too had started talking and taking help from Madhu, but Dylan never left her side. Madhu skipped her lunch thinking of sparing herself at least once in a day from the torturous food. But when Dylan noticed that, he made it a point to buy something from outside and give it to Madhu. He would just not allow Madhu to skip her food. She felt weird initially but gradually started liking his concern.
Her mother kept calling everyday on her cell-phone asking how she is?
I am good!! was her only reply. Her mother would probe her with questions "What did you eat for dinner? She would lie everyday saying the food here is delicious. She thought speaking the truth would hurt her mother. But everytime she spoke of food, she remembered Dylan's caring act. And a smile would appear on her face.
One after the other the exams went and she felt she was doing a pretty good job.
The last exam was of RAY subject, which went better than her expectations though the paper was tough. The moment she walked out of the exam hall she saw RAY and decided to go up to him to share her answers. But halfway she stopped, Rishabh Kundra looked tensed. His clothes seemed as if they had not been ironed, hair needed a cut badly and he was frowning. The sight of her favorite lecturer like this disturbed Madhu. She started stepping back and collided with Dylan. He was standing right behind her.
He immediately asked 'How did your paper go?'
'My paper went well.' She replied.
'Mine was good too.'
Seeing a strange expression on Madhu's face Dylan asked 'Is everything ok Madhu, Is there something bothering you?'
Madhu looked back to take a look at Prof. But he was nowhere around. She turned back to reply with a smile
'Yes, everything is ok..!
Madhu introduced Maya and Dylan and all of them decided to celebrate their freedom for a day. They chose caf coffee day as the location and decided to meet in two hours and Maya chose to bring her boyfriend Nikhil along as well.
Madhu wore a saffron color cotton top with peacock blue skirt. Maya looked beautiful in a blue jeans and pink top. They both complimented each other and decided to run as they were running late by 15 mins.Dylan had already reached CCD but with a guitar. It had been quite sometime he had played and decided to play a few tracks. After the 3rd track got over he heard some people clapping. He turned and saw Madhu, Maya and her boyfriend clapping and smiling. With a few seconds everyone started clapping.
Madhu could see Dylan blushing a bit. But she decided not to mention. They all chose a table for four and ordered Caf coffee day's Frappe. Madhu noticed Maya's boyfriend. He seemed absolutely love struck, but somehow Maya seemed neither too interested not to enjoyable about it. They all were chatting about how their exams went, about professors when suddenly Maya's boyfriend gave Madhu a compliment, "You look very beautiful, and it's a nice combination of clothes." Madhu blushed but feared that it might upset Maya a bit. She looked at Maya but she was grinning from ear to ear.
'Thanks" was all Madhu could say. She looked at Dylan but he seemed occupied with his frappe. After chatting for some more time they all decided to move. Maya immediately said "You guys make a move. I and Nikhil are planning to watch a late night show today."
But how would you manage inside the hostel?
Don't worry about that Madhu. All the blockages have been taken care of. Saying this she drove of on Nikhil's bike.
Madhu had a confused look on her face but chose to ask no more questions. She thought if she asks any more questions she would end probably making a fool of herself.
"She has probably bribed the hostel warden and the gate watchman. So don't be so confused or scared." said Dylan
Madhu chose silence as her best companion and said nothing more.
"Don't you think she is too fast for you. I mean you don't think like her, behave like her. Both of you are very different. She is so loud and you are such a silent soul"
When I make friends I don't look for similarities. It's all about that connection two people make when they talk for the first time. I agree she is very different from me, but had she been exactly like me, life would have been very silent. Just because she is different I feel fresh after having a conversation with her even though it's for 5 mins. Dylan I too have many negatives in my personality and a similar person like me would only multiply that negativity. With Maya its good bond formation. A wise man has said," Opposites Attract". I believe in this philosophy. What do u think?
'I am impressed'!
Impressed?
Ms Madhu you have a very good understanding power. I must say very few girls think like you. You think quite different.
'Well! I don't think so. There must be many girls thinking like me. Maybe the one's you encountered weren't good enough.' Saying this Madhu laughed. Dylan too started laughing back.
They had reached the college. Madhu started to move towards the hostel. Suddenly Dylan called out her name. She turned back to look at him.
"I forgot to say Bye! See you tomorrow in class".
Madhu smiled. "Bye! See you tomorrow."
Maya came very late. She entered her room. Madhu was busy writing her diary. Suddenly a pair of silver earrings dropped on her table. Maya had bought a gift for her.
Oh! How beautiful! Thank you. But why did you get these? I mean I have never given you anything.
'Don't bother about balancing equations. I liked it so bought one pair for you and one for me.' She smiled and went to her room.
Madhu sat down to write her diary. She looked outside the window. The lawn was deserted today.
The mid semester exams are finally over. I feel happy and a little light today. I went out with friends for a glass of frappe. Never knew Dylan played guitar so well. Thought of complementing him but could not gather the courage. Maya's boyfriend complemented me. Felt really nice. It felt a little strange though that Dylan did not compliment. But anyways how does it matter.
Maya gifted me a pair of silver earrings. They look really very beautiful. I wish I too can gift something to Maya. Thank you was a very small word.
Saw RAY a little tensed today, strange attire and unlike the way he usually is. Hope his health is fine.
