Chapter 1 I sat on my couch in lobby munching chocolates and flipping the channels of the LCD screen searching for something interesting on weekdays except serials. It was around 9:30am when the doorbell rang. Who would be there at this time I thought and called out for Ajju bhaiya who was in kitchen preparing dinner, "Ajju bhaiya... Ajju bhaiya someone is on the main gate, plz see who is it?"He came wearing an apron in a hassled mood, "Gudia you're so lazy" saying this he left for the gate. "You know me well" I ate another chocolate. He didn't reply anything for some minutes. "Bhaiya Who is it?" I said.
"Gudia come out" he said. What the heck?
I kept my chocolate box aside and wore my slippers to see what was going out. "Gudia there's a guy asking about you." he said on the entrance door and left in a hurry to remove something from gas burner. Who it can be at this time? The point to think was that a guy was asking about me at my door step so late. I was worried as in a place like Jabalpur it's not usual to have guy at your place late in night. My mom was busy in her room occupied with some work. I just hoped she would stay there for few more minutes till I see who the person is and handle the situation before mom sees him.
I walked through the dark verandah to reach where he was standing. He was at the gate in black hood but his face wasn't visible in dark. I walked few more steps and his face was visible in the street light. The slight wind blew which made my hair come out of the loose bun. I removed the hair to believe his presence. We stood face to face, after two and half years I saw him. He didn't seem the same as he was there with me schooldays. A great change was there in his looks and physique.
"Hi" He said. "Remember me?"
I didn't reply anything due to the bolt out of the blue. My hair still fell on my face. He moved forward gently placing them behind my ears. I had never expected to see him again in my life but he stood there right in front of me.
"Who is it Gudia?" Mom said standing few steps behind me with Ajju bhaiya.
I had completely forgotten about the surroundings on turning back I saw both of them. He too realized that it wasn't correct moment to talk. "Kria plz remove me from your block list" he said. "Hmm" I said being scared of mom. He took steps backwards and left in his black BMW.
"Ajju keep the food on dining table and Kria come to my room I wanna have a word with you" Mom had expressions of anger. I silently walked behind her to her room just thinking of an excuse to escape the situation. "Who was he?" Mom asked. I told her that he was my classmate in school but left for Pilani, Rajasthan two and half years ago. She wasn't yet satisfied with my statement. "Kria I don't want any such rubbish in your life from next week you're having first day in your college and your focus should be on studies. I hope you got what I mean." She kept explaining the importance of career and I heard her scolding for next two hours then came back to my room without having a single bite in dinner. Mom's lecture was enough to fill my stomach.
I took out my phone and dialed Kanya's number. "Hi Kria di... How are uh?"
"Kanya just tell your friend to stay away from me." I barked at her. She was confused by my behavior and asked about whom I was talking. "Just tell Reyaansh to stay away as far as possible."
"Reyaansh?" she repeated the name. "Yes Reyaansh" Saying this I kept down the call.
I parked the car in garage and walked up to my room. Removing the hood jacket I jumped on my bed. My heart still wasn't able to believe that I saw her and touched her serene face with my hands. I had closed my eyes re-imagining the moment in front of my eyes when Kanya called.
"Hello Reyaansh bhaiya"
"Hi Kanya"
She was Kria's cousin and was like my younger sister too, a sole reason to have every knowledge about Kria. She asked that whether I had gone to meet her Kria di or not. I could deny to her that I went. Kanya had beforehand told me not do any such things but I could keep my emotions in control. Something always dragged me towards her, forced me to be keep her close always. No matter how much hard I tried but still something yet is there.
"Sorry Kanya but I couldn't keep myself away so she had dinner today?" I said uncovering my dinner plate kept in my room. "Bhaiya plz don't repeat what you did it create trouble for her like it did today. After having a nice scolding from Maasi I don't think she would even had seen the face of food" she explained to me. "Hmm I promise and chal ab teri behen to mujse milegi nahi at least we can meet. It has been six months since I've seen you."
"Sure bhaiya we can meet tomorrow at our old cafe" She said. "Okay, see uh tomorrow" I covered my plate without having food and slept.
It was after six months I came back to my house. Every time I came here I made sure to be away from Kria neither a meeting nor a call. How I kept myself away only I know or the abandoned places in Pilani, Rajasthan where I silently cried for just a glimpse of her. Next day I went to meet Kanya at the old cafe where I had spent unforgettable memories of school.
Kanya came there in an instant I took her in a tight hug. "I missed you, Kanya"
"I missed you too" She studied my face apprehensively moving out of the hug. "Oh my... you look so handsome like a perfect Adonis." We talked all the missed up things that we could complete over the phone or any other social networking site. She informed me about Kria joining her college from the upcoming week but wasn't sure about my future plans. I told her that this time I'm officially back and doing my college here itself.
We walked back around the caf. I dropped her to her place and went to gym for my work out. The past two and a half years were no less than a prison in Pilani, Rajasthan. Every moment I used to die just to have glimpse of her. No matter what she thought this time I won't take my steps back. I waited for her to unblock me from any of the social networking site or on her phone. The possibility of it wasn't more than a minute hope.
