Part 7:
Next day in the morning in clg there was a exam atmosphere every where...though it was just seminar sessions going to happen but every one were very serious about their presentations because they will get marks for that...sh ri ne n bh meets sw n vi in the atrium...they greet each other..
Sh : rey nahi aaya...?? Only u both came to the clg today..
Sw : he z already in the clg today...
Sh looks at vi..vi understood..
Vi : wo actually he got a msg from kr so wo clg jaldi aagaya hai...they need to arrange projector n all na for seminars so they came to the clg early today...
Sh : oohh...so lets join them...
In d Class room :
Kr was trying to keep the projector on the table (guys just imagine the old style heavy projector) rey goes n helps her...
Kr : thank you..kaafi jaldi aagaye clg...?? (With serious tone)
Rey : (scathing his head) sorry wo actually sogaya tha main...n cell silent pe tha so jab uthke dekha tho 25mins hogaye the already msg aake...fir tayyar hoke aagaya...I am sry...
Kr : dats ok..it was my mistake also..muje kal hi tumhe inform karna chahie tha that we need to come to the clg early today...but as I said I don't have the habit to work with ags so mujse hi mistake hogayi...sry(said very cutely holding her ear)
Rey : could not take out his eyes from kr..she was looking so cute saying sry ...but the touch makes him to come to his senses...yes there was black colored greece kind of something applied on reys forehead so kr was trying to wipe it...
Kr : wo I think projector ka kuch lag gaya hai...but she doesn't receives any response because our hero was again busy in staring at kr..she looks at him n shakes her head smiling slightly...then she makes him sit a bit on table edge so that she can wipe the greecy thing from his forehead easily...
Rey was so much busy in his dreamland he just kept on staring at her...but some strands of kr's hair were disturbing him so he raises his hand to move them but...
Kr : stop...she steps back...
Rey : comes to his senses completely...he feels very embarrassed..- kr mm wo I...I am...I am really sor...
Kr : dats ok(she just cuts his sentence)...hojata hai kabhi kabhi...(she avoids eye contact...just starts arranging everything for seminar...)
Rey : okay (smirks) because he was happy to know that kr is not like other girls he met till then who (most of them) tried to stick to him like glue..many even tried to seduce him to make him touch them...but all failed...but today he for the 1st time tried to touch a girl but she refuses..he smiles n says beta reyansh har ladki tumhare charm se impress nahi hoti...u need to work hard this time...
Kr who was busy in arranging her seminar slides hears this n faces him...
Kr : what did you say ??
Rey : ohh shit...did I say it loudly...??(turns the other way bitting his finger nail)
Kr: burst out laughing seeing his condition...she again move her fingers on his hair n says "chabilaal"...which makes rey to blush...
Rey: sry
Kr : smiling..that's okay...abb kuch kaam karu...?? Remember 1st 2hrs mere presentations hai..?
Rey : oh yeah...
By that time every one starts entering into the class room ..they still had 15mins to start their 1st seminar..even the gang enters n wishes gud luck to kr n were about to settle down ,
The voice : excuse me plz...(a boy voice)
Every one turns towards the door from where the voice came from...
Rey : bittu...
Bittu :(looking straight into krias eyes) a machine is anything which reduces human efforts...
Kr smiles slightly n was about to say something
Bittu : (with stern voice) 1 min...machines are any combination of bodies so connected that their relative motions are constrained, and by which means force and motion may be transmitted and modified, as a screw and its nut, or a lever arranged to turn about a fulcrum or a pulley about its pivot etc; especially a construction more or less complex consisting of a combinations of moving parts or simple mechanical elements as wheels, levers, cams etc..
All were shocked...the gang has wide grin on their faces...the other students who knew about previous days canteen incident understood the scene...others just confused...kr was more happy..kr was again about to say something but
Bittu : abb meaning mat puchna aap muje...muje nahi patha..ratta maar(byheart) ke aaya hoon raat bhar bait ke...muje itni English nahi aati aapki tarah...aap tho jaante hi honge..aap hi se tho seek raha hoon English...
Kr observes pain n anger in his tone...slightly tears form in her eyes...composing herself tries to say something but again was cut by bittu...
Bittu : sorry bolna hai..?? Nahi chahie aapki sorry...di bulata hoon...chota bhai samaj ke maaf nahi kar sakte the kal...mujse kuch bhi kahe bina chale gaye...(almost in tears)
Kr : thinks its waste trying to say something to him in this condition...she goes n takes a box from her bag...holding it infront of him - aur main sorry bolungi bhi nahi...chote bhai ho mere.. haq banta hai mera tumhe punish karna tumhe sudarna...
Bittu : (wiping his tears) takes the box n opens it...wide smile spread on his face...gajar ka halwa..
Kr : jaisa bhi bana ho khalena...phekna mat..pehli baar maine kuch banaya hai kisi ke lie...(mimicking ) abb recipe mat puchna ...muje nahi pata...online videos dekh ke banayi hai maine..cooking nayi aati muje..tum tho jante hi ho..
Bittu : laughs with tears in his eyes...thanks di...thanks a lot ...saying this he hugs her n says aage se aise koi galti hui na tho do tappad marna muje par aise mujse bina kuch kahe chale mat jana...plzzx
Kr : sorry...for hurting you...aage se aise nahi chali jaungi kabhi...pakka...
Bittu : smiles n says -(wiping tears) chalo chalo abb bahot hogaya rona dona...main chalta hoon...kaam ka waqt hogaya...aur aapko bhi tho start karna hai abb...
Kr : confused...raises her eyebrows asking what?
Bittu: stepping back- nahi samje..?? Main aapki gs giri ki baat kar raha tha...saying this he runs out from there..
All laughs at his behavior...kr smiles shaking her head...rey was once again impressed by her simplicity, care n concern for others...soon eveyone gather in the class room...1st hr kr gives presentation for 1st yr students...all 1st yr students highly impressed with the standard of her presentation...they throws many questions also in the end but she smartly n in a very professional way, she answers each questions...she was about to end her presentation, rey asks question which was unexpected most difficult question...she had carefully prepared all possible questions n ready with answers but she missed out the question rey had asked...she curses herself for missing such an important n difficult question ...but somehow she manages to ans him...but that was not the end...on her answer, rey throws another question...which was more difficult than his previous qun...she thinks for a while n answers him carefuly so that he should be convinced with her ans n at the same time he cant throw further questions on her answer...he understood her body language n nervousness so stopes throwing quns...kr gives presentation for her class on 2nd hr...same went on...reys questions were very difficult to answer but she somehow manages..
It was a break time...all went to canteen except kreya..they had some arrangments to do for next seminars...so kr n rey stays back in the class room n finishes everything...rey observes kr avoiding eye contact with him...she was behaving professionally with him..after eveything is done n they were about to leave,
Rey : naraj ho ?? ( almost whisper)
Kr : looks at him this time - nahi...pause. for few secs...no ...breaking. eye lock - nai main q naraj hongi tumse...?
Rey : keeps his both hands in his jeans pockets( actually it z his style...most of the times he walks keeping his hands in his jeans side pockets)- then y r u avoiding me..??
Kr : gets angry...so what do expect from me mr reyansh..? ? Kal jab maine tumhe apni presentations dikaye the tab I discussed with u what all questions I can expect from the class...uss waqt tumne ye jo tum quns puche unke bare me kuch nahi bola n aaj suddenly u asked all tough questions to me...thank god somehow I managed to ans...
Rey : arre but..
Kr : but what reyansh...? ? I am not at all angry because u asked me tough qun...I am fine with it...I like challenges...I like competition...but aaj Maine ye dono presentations sabse pehle islie de rahi thi so that I can set a high standard for others...so that students can not take this whole seminar thing lightly...they should take it seriously n atleast try n match up my level...puri night bait ke prepare ki thi...upper se bittu k lie gajar ka halwa banana ..
Rey : par kriya
Kr : par kya rey?? Students take my presentations seriously because for them its clg gs's seminar not kriya ghais seminar...agar koi b ans nahi de pati na tho majak banke reh jata mere iss pure seminar idea ka...koi bhi seriously nahi leta isse aaghe...n that means my defeat as a gs..for not fulfilling my responsibility properly...I thought u understand all this since u were gs of your previous clg...saying this she left from there...
Rey : huh...ye kya kardia maine ...impress karne ke chakkar mein ulta naraj kardia usse...huh...
Done...
