PART 2
Who can imagine my situation? I had 6 papers to give, before every paper I prayed that she would come as an invigilator, but my hard luck, during 2nd 3rd and 4th I could not as much as get her single glimpse.
Luck shined on me during my 5th exam, I have given up hope as the 2 invigilators came,
I hope you are liking the story please hit the like tab and please comment
As usual I finished the paper in 1 hour 30 minutes, these exams had no relevance for me, I had much knowledge then they required, I was just trying to complete my civil engineering degree.
After that incidence all those years back, I had already wasted my precious 3 years, if that would not have happened with me, I would have been a pass out 2 years back, but alas at the age of 23 here I am still in 3rd year.
My thoughts were broken by a sweet laughing sound; I looked in the direction from where it came, there she was standing at the back door of the room, laughing at something the invigilator of our room said. I just went back to my la la land,
She looked so sweet, I looked at her from top to bottom, she was again wearing that bulky jacket and stupid sari with shoes; I just wanted to know how she really looked.
The other woman hugged her for some reason, and the way the jacket hugged her, I had to rethink is she really flat or just this woolen packet has some surprise in it.
For the last 1 hour both ladies continued to talk and smile and laugh. I just drooled.
When the paper was over again everyone left and I sat there waiting, she came in with the sealed packet and said, "here the tape you asked for" the invigilator thanked her and sealed their packets,
As they were leaving she saw me, and gave me a brilliant smile
And came near me, "your friends always seem to be late" I just nodded, she patted my shoulder, "how are you feeling now young man?" I was like, OMG she is talking to me, she recognized me,
I with a lot of courage said, "I am good" she smiled and said, "One more exam left" I just nodded;
she said, "ALL THE BEST" I was near fainting, she s wishing me luck;
I was not able to say anything and I was saved by the other teacher who called her, "let's go, don't you have to submit the packets" she bit her tongue, "yes, I have to, coming, bye, take care" and she left without waiting for my reply.
I was more than happy.
During the last exam also she did not come, I looked around for some clue but she was nowhere to be found.
I left the college with heavy heart, my friends were worried as to what happened to me, but I said that my knee was paining, there was a guilty look on their faces and they said nothing.
There was a railway crossing near this college, and the gate was closed, there was a jamb due to eager drivers to cross first as soon as the gate opens, we were waiting since last 35 mins, but all was in vain.
Then I saw a group of people coming requesting the drivers to straighten their vehicles, she was one of the volunteers, she came near our car and said to the driver, "Bhaiya please cut your car little to the left and make space for the vehicles coming from that side, thank you" and she moved further, I was like she is so brave.
Soon the traffic was cleared and as the cars passed the volunteers thanked the drivers for corporation, it was then that I noticed that she was with the same teacher whom she was talking with on the first day. My heart broke, maybe she is his girlfriend.
