Navya Ek Naya Ehsaas- Part 33- Page 101 - Page 11

Part 5-

The phone rang and Navya dropped all her papers as she was so excited for some reason. There was a huge smile on her face and she ran towards her phone. She looked at the screen and saw his name. Anant. She received the call. "Hello Navya!" Anant smiled as he stood on the balcony looking up at the moon. Navya sat near her window and also gazed up to the stars. She smiled as she admired his husky voice over the phone. There was a short silence and Anant was confused as to why there was no answer back "Navya...!" Anant made sure the phone was connected it was. Navya blushed "Hello Anant are you okay?" Anant smiled as he heard her voice. It was soft but unique. "Yes Navya I am fine I was going to ring you earlier but I thought you may be busy is it okay to talk still?" Anant was very cautious with his every move. Navya blushed again looking at the moon as the breeze hit both of their faces. Anant's hair was covering his face and Navya's hair flowing backwards. It was a beautiful night. "Navya...!" Anant spoke again as Navya was in her dream world. She embraced the breeze and spun around in her room. "Anant its okay we can talk!" she got back to reality. "Anant we need to make sure that we write down all the rules now I think there should be a limited amount of resources, in each team there should be different sub teams and they work together so everyone is participating equally!" Anant just listened to her innovative ideas and smiled. He thought Wow! She's so dedicated; she's different, very different. She carried on talking and didn't realise that she wasn't letting him talk "I'm sorry Anant would you like to say anything?" Navya was embarrassed and she hit her head and cursed herself for going off like an express train!! "It's okay Navya erm I think we should make a list of the students in each team I'll list the boys you do the girls and then we can sub team them, also I'll make the list of the resources they need for the DNA structure and also to present to the teacher on Monday I will do a presentation on how this is going to work!" Navya was gobsmacked. Wow, he's so hard working, all of that work! She smiled thinking to herself. Her mind spoke Stop smiling, hes only a class mate get it! "Anant... erm well I think that's too much work for you how about I take care of all the lists and you just do resources and presentation remember we have to work as a team and it's not fair on you!" She was worried as to how he would react. "Okay how about we do the lists together and you write them down now and presentation will be done over the weekend by me and then I will email it to you btw what's your email address!" Navya gulped. What! He's asking for my email. She was worried and looked around tense, agitated. She didn't know whether or not to give it to him. By the silence Anant took it as a no. He was upset and it could clearly be seen by his eyes. He spoke with a heavy heart "its okay I'll show you at college!" Anant looked around still sad. Navya somehow sensed this and she was trying to say it. "Anant... it's not that my email is Navya.Mishra@gmail.com" Anant smiled and noted it down. He smiled as he wrote it. "Thanks Navya!" the clock struck 12 and they discussed all the rules and regulations of the presentations. Anant had started making the presentation as well with her and they were laughing and joking in between. It was 4 am and Navya and Anant were slowing down like broken robots. Navya yawned and so did Anant. Anant laid flat face on his bed and Navya on her chair. She laid her phone near her heart and Anant near his lips. They slept together all night but through a phone.

The sun rose and Navya was dead out on the chair. Her mum walked into the room and saw her on the chair. Her table was covered in books and she saw her phone on her heart. "Yeh ladki bhi na kese soy hai raat baar yeh phone use chorta nahin hai pata nahin ese konsa kaam hai ke woh theek se sote bhi nahin hai!" Meeta mumbled to herself as she rearranged her room to make it look clean. It was Saturday and they had the day off today due to the project and Sunday's are vacations as well. Navya ruffled herself as she heard the noise in the room. She was shocked to see her mum standing there. She looked around for her phone to see it was disconnected. She sighed relief as her mum didn't find out. "Navya tu kya kar rahe hai phone par? Jab uth thi hai toh phone dekhti hai konse baate kar rahe hai?" Meeta crossed her arms and was slightly worried at Navya's behaviour. "Woh... Ma kuch nahi sirf ese hi aur me par rahe the raat ko isliye room ki yeh halat hue hai!" Navya looked around trying to not meet her eyes. She couldn't believe she just lied to her own Mom. Meeta was watching her actions and thought something was wrong with her daughter. "Theek hai nashta tayar hai aaja khane ke liye!" Navya agreed and went into the washroom. She came out in a simple salwar kameez 10 minutes later and she looked simply beautiful. She went to the mirror to comb her hair gently. She looked at herself and smiled fully. Her eyes were beaming with happiness. She remembered yesterday and her talk with Anant. She had never spoken to a boy like Anant or even looked at any. What was so special about him? Woh kaun he mera was playing constantly in her mind. Maybe she would get that answer very soon. She continued to be in her chirpy mood as she reached the dining table to meet her family. She greeted all of them and enthusiastically chirped away like a bird. Everyone was watching her. "Arey Navya beta thuje kya hua?" Dadi asked her directly and held her hand on the table. "Navya is in a great mood today!" Navya spoke like a queen. She giggled away and they enjoyed a lovely breakfast.

Bajpai House

Om, Baba and Mohan were working on a presentation in the hall engrossed in their work. Anant came running down whistling to a romantic song flipping his book in the air. He was galloping down the stairs as a vase broke as his hand hit it. His hand was bleeding and he shouted "Ouch!" Om glared at him "Anant!!!" he shouted at the top of his voice. Anant looked up straight away, his pain diminished with the shout of his Dad. He gulped. Om sped towards him. "What is this Anant? Running like a child around the house when will you grow up?! Don't you have any ambitions, you talk big about being a doctor well I'll tell you one thing you have no qualities a doctor has!" Om was disgusted by his son's doings. "Lochan pick this mess up!" Om turned back to sit down and Sughanda came crying. "Anant... Are you okay beta?" Sughanda was crying as blood was dripping all the way down his arm and on the floor. Anant was shocked, shook by his dad's words. His eyes were hurt filled with painful tears. The words recalled back in his mind his pain was nothing compared to his Dad's words. He stepped back and sat down on the step. "Lochan first aid kit deh!" Sughanda was scared and shocked at Anant's injury. "Anant yeh kese hua beta? Tu theek to hai nah!" Sughanda was enquiring at his health but there was no answer just tears. Sughanda bandaged his hand. He didn't even flinch at the stinging he was in a state of shock. He stood up and walked out with his bag like a zombie. Without his breakfast, prayers or anything. "Anant nashta karke to jah!" Sughanda was left in tears as Anant walked out. He was about to sit in the car, he clasped the door handle and looked back. He sat in the car and drove to college. He drove down the main road like a race car. Trying to erase those words out of his mind but it was all useless. He put his break on and he stopped on a forestry road. He laid his head on the steering wheel, grabbing his forehead just hoping to succeed. He banged the steering wheel with his other hand. The phone buzzed. He didn't answer. It buzzed after 5 minutes. Then he decided to see who it was. It was 2 text messages from Navya. This somehow bought a smile on his face. He replied I am coming. He decided to drive to college. He sped into the college gates like a hero.

College

Navya was inside the college waiting for Anant and she kept looking at the clock. Her phone rang and it said Meet me in the canteen! Navya was a bit confused with the message but she didn't think too much of it and went there. She saw him looking worried and sitting on the table. She went up to him "Hey Anant is there any problem with the project, let me see on your laptop!" she smiled at him but he just looked at her. "Anant what's wrong why are you so sad?" Anant was really quite worried, shocked. Navya was getting tense she unknowingly put her hand on his. "Anant please tell me!" he put his hand away from her's and told her "Navya I can't do this project today, something has happened I have to go immediately!" Anant stood up and walked towards the door he turned around and he looked at her with his teary eyes. "I'm sorry Navya!" Navya ran after him "Anant please listen what happened?" he didn't turn around this time and ran out of the gates he sped off in his car and Navya stood there confused, worried for him. She went inside the canteen to get her bag and took out all the things relevant. She went into the teacher's cabin and knocked on the door "Maam I have come with the project ideas is it okay to show you?" she let her in and she smiled at the teacher worriedly. "Navya where is Anant he is a part of this project too!" the teacher looked around to not see him anywhere. "Maam...!" she looked around thinking whether to tell her or not. "Yes Navya!" the teacher looked at her confused. "Maam... Woh Anant is not here today so I am doing it!" the teacher laughed at her. "Itne se baat Navya tu toh ese dar rahi thi jese apne koi bhoot dekha ho its okay dear relax!" the teacher put her hand on her shoulder and smiled Navya forced a smile on her face. She presented the project ideas and the teacher was impressed. "Wow Navya impressive I am pleased with yours and Anant's work!" The teacher praised her and Navya went out to go to her first lecture.

Precap: Navya text Anant saying Are you okay? Are you feeling better? Anant was sitting on a roadside in tears and Ek Ek lamha played in the background. Navya worried and tense waiting for her phone to bleep. Anant looking helpless.
