Chapter-2
This chapter is after the teaser ends.
Next day morning he felt someone caressing his face and running her fingers lovingly through his messy hair. he thought he was dreaming but when realization dawned upon him ,he woke up startlingly and was shocked or rather say disappointed to see deepali seating on the bed beside him. It isn't needed to mention that he was annoyed.how couldn't he? she was so chipku. Always attached to him like a glue.
"Hey baby, what's up?? Look purab,how adorable he looks!!! Awww.. my baby..." she said.
He never hated the word baby in his life so much but now a days that was the most irritating thing to hear. He didn't like it even a one bit. And these days makes him miss his Paro even more. Atleast she would have saved him from this overtly love(fake?)!!!!!
"I need to freshen up deeps. Please leave." He said curtly and she left.
He went to take shower. He can't help remember the day he met deepali first time. Her family moved from their village to Mumbai. They weren't as rich as them but still okay. Being from the same village and their family friends,dadi invited them to their house. Dadi liked her family so much. Since that day they become friends. He never wanted to be friend with her and he never liked her but she was always dadi's favourite (and that's going to be a big problem in the future). She was taking so much liberty being dadi's favourite. Ab dadi ko Kon samjhaye ? Thus they grew up together.but usne Kabhi bhi abhi ka peecha nahi choda.
Things changed when he joined boarding school when he entered 6th std. and she also tagged along and again he couldn't do anything. Thanks to god, when he was in 9th ,their school organized a special study program. Under the part of that program a group of students from Mumbai had given a chance to study one year in Delhi in the exchange of students coming from Delhi. He was first apprehensive of joining this program but then he decided to join. Few weeks later He was glad he did because he met pragya there ,his pragya, his Paro ,his love, friend everything. That program brought him one of the best gift of his life,his small little chashmish friend.but again deeps was also there and it didn't made it easy for him but who cares.finally that program ended and he had to return to his life back to Mumbai without pragya leaving behind a bliss of a life in delhi. Here nobody was helping him to stay away from deeps.
He missed her so much. He always talked about her and sometimes it was annoying for others to listen him. Purab, aliya and everybody else was was making fun of him.but it didn't stopped him from talking about her. Because their relation was beyond others reach. Everybody was happy to hear about pragya because he always had good things to tell about her and it made others happy that he found such a good person. Purab and aliya were so curious to meet her. They always thought that they have heard so much about her but whether they will ever get a chance to meet her??? But there were few people who weren't actually happy about him being attached to someone completely unknown to them. But he was so lost in his world that he didn't realized that dadi wasn't happy with his this behaviour.
But one thing he realized through course of these many years is that deeps will always be behind him till he finds and brings pragya back to his life and he is so determined to do so. First thing he will do today is ask that mysterious girl ,who so shockingly resembles to his Paro, that who is she???
