New FF - Yaariyaan Part 5@Page 25 - Page 9

'Roko Roko!' she called waving her hands to the autos walas.

None of them were stopping when she saw a shared auto coming which stopped near her. She asked 'Future Software chaloge?' to which he said yes and she got into it. But the auto didn't move.

'Kya huwa bhaiya?' she asked to which auto wala didn't respond.

She remembered someone saying that here they will not respond as most of them don't know hindi. Thinking this she said 'What happened?' to which he replied 'Auto empty'waiting for people' and turned his face. Navya found it a bit rude but didn't say anything. She remembers her delhi friends arguing with them when they ask for extra money or something else, but she always prefers to stay quite in such situations. And on top of it it's a new city.

Navya is getting restless and looking at her watch again and again. Though it is only 8:45 am, she is still worried that she is going to be late. Soon people came and filled the empty seats. While others were asking him to move, he was pointing towards someone with his right finger saying something in tamil. May be one more is coming. 'Uff! How many more? The auto is already jam packed. Ab aur kaha bithayega? Sar pe?' she said in mind. She tried to see but by that time that person already vanished from her sight.

A guy dressed in formals passed and went near the auto wala and asked 'Future Software. But where to sit?'

This suddenly diverted her attention towards the voice going to the same place where she is going to. She tries to check out who the guy is but not able to see the face as people sitting opposite to her are not leaving a gap.

The auto wala made that guy sit with him in the front and started his vehicle at last. Navya still couldn't see his face but could see his strong muscular back a little wearing a light blue shirt.

So, her journey begins. Finally she is out from her sleepless nights studying for her exams, attending boring lectures at times. She is feeling great about it thinking that from today onwards she is going to be independent. From now on she doesn't have to think much before buying her favorite stuffs. But it is still 1 month to go till she gets her first salary. But so badly she wanted to be in Delhi with her college friends. Doesn't know if she will get so close and caring friends here or not.

'Madam! Your stop' he called and she came out of her thoughts and said 'Oh!' and hurried to take out her wallet from her brown bag and asked 'How much?'

'10 rupees'

She crossed the road and reached the gate. She was about to get in but one of the security guard stopped her and asked her to get in from the other gate which is at the corner. 'Shit! What a fool I am? This entry is for cars'

She hurried and went there and the guy out there pointed towards the other side. She went and said 'New Joiner' to which she was given a register to make an entry of her details. She took the pen to write her details but the pen isn't working. She tried calling the guy but he was busy attending someone else. She searched in her purse but in vain.

'Oh shit! How can I forget to bring one pen?' she murmered

Soon she was joined by others in the queue waiting behind her for their turn to write. Then suddenly someone from back offered her a white and blue renolds pen. Without looking back she happily took it and started writing. Taking the pass she looked at the watch and left from there leaving the hand forwarded towards her saying 'Arre! My pen'

She entered to see the big building in front of her where on the top it was written 'Future Software'. Navya felt proud that she is going to work in such a big company and make her parents proud. She giggled on that what Meera Mausi, her Amritser's neighbor will say now who used to keep comparing her daughter with Navya.

Entering the hall, she went to the reception by her side and gave the pass and is asked to wait. She was looking around when one known voice called her 'Excuse me' and she turned back to get caught by someone's eyes.
