Part 2
"Oh I see, So it's our little blush who made sandwiches." Smirked Rey.
Involuntarily Kriya's face was highlightened with a bright curve which people call... smile.
When Rey met Kriya for the first time in a family get together of a common friend of their families, she was continuously being complemented about how divine and angelic she looked. Well Rey cant disagree to that but for a moment he thought that maybe the bride was getting furious, having Kriya taking half of her compliments... and that thought made him chuckle even today...
But the point to be noted my lord, is that the whole day due to the compliments, Kriya couldn't help but blush profusely, which was obviously noticed by his newly made family friend. And from that instant Rey had made Kriya's new representation... Blush.
Today they were waiting in the cafeteria for the bus to arrive as they were to go for college excursion to "Radiance."
Radiance. No one in the students had heard a place possessing this name. But the professor had strongly recommended this place as it was filled with astonishingly marvellous beauty of the nature. It consisted beaches, mountains, parks, resorts and every sort of natural gift which a youngster wants to travel. Hence, after the terminal exams, the Dean and professors decided to grant them the well deserved break for 1 week.
So, coming back to the cafeteria, Kriya was showing how she had woken up early and made sandwiches for her friends and was delighted about this trip.
Just one thing, Yes... this one thing of Rey had always caused a tingle in Kriya when he used to call her Blush. The tingle lasted just for a friction of second, but that much which can be felt. The only worry about this name was...
She loved it.
She used to usually hate when people spoil her name from Kriya to Kriyu or Kiriya or any sort of crap. She loved to be called by her name. But this name... was what she loved... and she had allowed Rey to call her that... only Rey.
So as soon as this name poured out from Rey's speech Kriya involuntarily smiled. And as expecting her smile Rey smiled in return.
Rey had always been a sweet and generous boy. Always loved and respected his family and helped others. Ofcourse he had a bad habit of not sharing his thoughts or confusions. Introvert? No. Just a bit private, wanting to keep his views within him. He had never dated a girl. Yes, he had a small crush in his teenage school days, But... Oh sorry as he said no private talks so better you hear his crush story from him. So basically he hadn't dated, not because he wasn't open for it, or he didn't find someone...
When everyone asks, he says he hasn't found the one... but that isn't the truth. The main problem, is he exactly doesn't know which type of girl he wants. It can be traditional, western, black, white, or even a vampire will do... but he is waiting for love. The day when he falls... nah! The day when he feels he is rising in love, he'll find the girl.
The first time when he met Kriya, he saw a fear, a... a fobia... of maybe not being able to mix in the new crowd of Mumbai. He heard his dad saying his old friend Mr. Ghai from a small town arriving Mumbai for his daughter's studies and new business plans. When he saw Kriya, he wanted to remove that vulnerability and fear from those big green orbs. So, he went and initiated the first step of friendship plotting the point of being in the same college. And his motto was solved as he could see the fear slipping away from her eyes.
With that, Kriya found her first Mumbaian friend.
With that, Rey found a simple sweet Non-Bimbo girl in Mumbai.
Then the parade continued when he took Kriya to meet his best friend Swayam and Swayam's Totally opposite girlfriend, Sharon.
He didn't knew whether it was his friend's welcoming attitude or Kriya's sweetness, But he could see a new member being added to his group and surprisingly, he was utterly happy with that change. He could see Sharon and Kriya getting along well and also notice how sometimes when Rey and Swayam would handle a Swaron fight through Men- Men talk, Kriya was actively participating with Sharon in a girl to girl talk. He appreciated her simple but bubbly and mixing nature and always a positive attitude about life.
He could also sense a similarity that she also didn't like her personal life being discussed with anyone except herself. She was definitely hiding some part as whenever she was asked that why she choose Mumbai?' She always replied... I needed to make a fresh start. Mumbai... gave me that.'
Being the understanding person he is, Rey didn't ask her any questions. He knew it was not that serious which would spoil someone's life or destroy it... But he knew that, that part of her past was still within her, and somewhere giving her pain. Rey was not in love with her. But he cared for her. A lot. And that's the reason he always tried to protect her and make her happy. He felt she deserved it. Happiness.
"Kriya... My love... I could die without you... without your sandwiches... without your care... without your affection... and..."
"Nonsense." was the word which came out of Swayam's mouth when he mistakenly' interrupted Sharon's over-dramatized speech.
Sharon was sweet and loved appreciating Kriya, but being a Shakespeare fan she possessed the art of dramatization. Which was not-so-loved by his love, Swayam. He was a bit.. just a bit... annoyed of the word DRAMA. So whenever Sharon used to give a small dramatized dialogue, poor Swayam used to spoil it, and poor Swayam used to regret it, and poor Swayam had to convince and make her girl smile till an hour, and even though being rich...
Poor Swayam...!
"OOPS!!"
Again uttered by Kriya and Rey in unison, as they knew what would Swayam's Nonsense' result.
There was in her own royalty Sharon Rai Prakash standing to almost cry and breakdown in another drama.
"That's it! Now you think I speak nonsense. Now you don't love me anymore. Now you always find faults in me and now..."
Sharon's dramatized speech was again interrupted by Swayam's mouth... Actual mouth, as he kissed her.
And our blush... blushed.
Rey was amused by the site. Since when Sharon and Swayam are committed they used to freely kiss other in His and Kriya's presence. When he couldn't be more happy for the lovely couple, he always noticed Kriya. She blushed, Widened her eyes, and then closed them covering them with her palm. All in just one second..!
So shy and innocent.
Rey smiled at all her three crazy friends, Drama Queen, More-than-required Intelligent and... and Blush.
He noticed Swaron melting apart and Swayam speaking,
"I had, have and will love you... as you are... and for who you are till my existence."
Rey could feel their love and imagined himself saying these words of pure and true love to someone someday. He sighed and moved his eyes and saw the reflection of the same feeling in... Kriya's eyes.
Wait and hope... for true love.
These 4 hearts... melted in love, two each other's and other two in hope and wait, were brought out of their reverie when the peon informed them of their bus being arrived.
They smiled at each other, and moved forward. Grabbed their bags and baskets and stepped towards the bus to mark their first start towards and immensely memorable journey.
