So, anyway, the fresher's party was in two days and because of the whole Ashwini thing Samrat didnt had a date. And as it was announced it was mandatory. Some students... some were excused provided they have serious excuse regarding college stuff or some personal reasons but Samrat knew that he was not one among them. So there was no way out. He had to attend the party and if he didnt managed to find the date, he will have to go without one and become a joke, which obviously he did not want to. Therefore, the next half college he was busy looking for one.
He called couple of girls he knew, but they already had dates, so he called a few more. They had dates, too. Some of them made Samrat feel even more disgusted as they left saying "Aww I thought u r with Ash or else I wud have been ur date".
Pickings were getting pretty slim later and by the end of the day it was down to girls who were fat and talked with lisps. But then again Samrat didnt wanted to go to the party without a date, what would that look like? The most wanted guy is without a date?! Samrat cudnt give up, he never did...not so easily! On the other hand he knew what were freshers party in Excel like. A person without a date has two partners and that is "scooping punch" and "cleaning puke in the bathroom". The only thought of it made him go like yuck and he left for home!
Almost as he panicked, he pulled out the year book and started flipping the pages one by one, with a hope to find a suitable date. At first he looked through the pages with the seniors.
"Seniors?" he thought for a while, though he somewhere knew tht there is no chance he called them anyway and he was proven right. Some were busy, some had their own dates and some were not interested. "Samrat Shergil is getting rejected?" Samrat was slowly getting used to handling rejections.
Samrat had a lot of struggle finding ONE date that his mom knew what he is going thru. She came and sat besides him "If you cant get a date, I ll be happy to go with you" she smiled.
"What!" he screamed. "Please leave me alone mom, thanks anyway" he said dejectedly.
Samrat started feeling worse than he was b4. "Even mom thinks i cant get a date... Am I Samrat..Samrat Shergil??"
So he continued flipping pages once again when she saw Gunjan Bhushan's picture in the junior section. He paused for a second, then turned the page. "How can i even think of her?" he cursed himself. He spent the next hour searching for someone decent enough till it was 2 am but came to the realization that there wasnt anyone left. And then he finally turned back to Gunjan's picture and looked again. "She is not bad looking and shes really sweet.. she will probably say yes...." he thought.
He, afterall, closed the yearbook and again thought "Gunjan Bhushan? No way. Absolutely not. My friends will eat me up..alive! But compared to dating with mother and cleaning puke....." Samrat was in a complete dilemma. The whole night he cudnt sleep and debated what to do, when afterall he came to the obvious conclusion....to ask Gunjan Bhushan for the date!
Now he walked around the room thinking of the best way to ask Gunjan for the party. Specially after the way he and his gang had been behaving with her all these years. So he thought that Gunjan might not go to the party with him. Samrat barely slept that night, which was the strangest things that ever happened in his life. So the first thing he planned to do was to ask her for the party.
