Both were sitting next to each other with an I-don't-care attitude trying hard to focus on the competition. She was busy doing the final revision while he was playing in his cell phone.
"Hi.. I'm Jake.." a guy forwarded his hand standing front of kriyansh desk. Immediately rey's head lifted up watching this. She saw jake a giving so-what look.. putting his hands down Jake said "Your name??"
kriya replied rudely "Chudail.."š”
jake's face fell and walked away.. Rey was literally jumping inside with a wide smile on his face as jake was the guy who had commented "Sexy" seeing at kria when she arrived.. ššKria turned to rey he immediately bent down and focused back to her books smiling silently.
The Quiz Master(QM) announced "So let's begin.. totally there are 15 teams and only 10 will be selected for the next round depending on the scores.. Each round contains 2 questions..". He also explained the rules. So Rey and Kria were a team now and they were waiting excited for the quiz to begin.. Their team was given the name "Dazzlers". Both liked that name.
(I'm mentioning only rey's and kria's introduction)
QM: So participants please introduce yourselves.

There were 10 questions. As soon as the QM started shooting the questions she was about to answer.. suddenly Rey took Kria's hand's below the desk and started making small designs on her soft palms.. She felt those sparks when he touched her.. a little more now.. her heart beat paced slowly.. She was admiring him... while he was busy answering the questions. When he was done he turned towards her.. Now he got to know his touched had an impact on her.. He stopped making designs and slowly squeezed her hand.. she felt a shiver pass through her spine..He winked at her.. She was back to reality.. She withdrew her hands and turned front..He had that naughty smile on his face.š³

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So in the two hour's break.. Kria was sitting alone in the canteen with sandwich on the table..Book in one hand and fiddling with her pain in other hand touching her lip's sometimes.. moving those hair's with the pen which was playing in front of her eye's.. Rey who was busy staring at her.. took out his cell and started clicking pic's of her's.. Something blocked his len's.. he looked up to see Jake standing near Kria.. Jake was about to touch Kria while she scolded and walked away angrily.. she dropped her pen and did'nt notice it.. Rey picked it up.. It was a parker pen with a silver design on it.. It was a nice one.. He could smell her fragrance through that pen.. He felt wonderful.. He softly kissed it..šš
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 hour's later...
All assembled for the pick and speak competition.. they were given topics but not related to academic's... they wanted to know how they think about few things in their life.. Rey came to Kria and asked "Are you Okay?" she just nodded her head without meeting his eyes. He wished her "All the best " and went to his place.. It was individual participation and this time Rey and Kria were sitting opposite to each other.. (It's not exactly pick and speak as they gave their own topivs ti individuals observing them).
Rey's topic... "Your opinion about true love" (he was given this topic as they had observed him to be a heart throb of gal's there"
Rey answered..
True love for me is... He said the poem which he had written..š
its sweet like the nectar
of the garden flower,
its soothing like the buzzing
of a bumble bee,
its warm like the rays
of the morning sun,
its the search of a love so pure
which keeps me on the run.
its the pulse in my vein,
the thoughts in my brain,
in every breath that I take,
the smile my lips make,
its in the twinkle of my eye,
till the day I die.
its the dream in my sleep,
its springs freshest leaf;
a love so rare like this
will always be with me for keeps.
its the warmth of my blood,
as my feelings flood,
as says my heart's beat,
its depth touches the ocean's feet.
even if its heart searing pain,
with nothing to gain,
I will feel it as the tear on my cheek,
and without words my soul will speak.
a feeling so sincere,
a bond so strong,
I know my soul will never guide me wrong.
I will wait till my last sunset,
till my heart slows down with a dull ache,
till my eyes are wet,
till I meet my soul's mate,
yes, I will wait.š³
All were impressed by what he said. Kria was admiring him and lost in her thought's.. His lines were echoing in her ear's.šš
