"Its okk sanskaar. Next time take care of this and never leave me like this." I replied putting my arms around his back. His warmth made me feel much better. I didnt want that hug to end.
PART 6
I was lost into him. He stepped back after a while. I had stopped crying. He asked me to go to my hostel room and sleep. I nodded as I had no more strength to stay there.
We wished each other goodnight and both went to our rooms.
I slept as soon as I laid on my bed.few hours later I felt a hand on my forehead. I tried to open my eyes but couldnot. I tried hard and succeeded in opening them. I saw Him standing beside my bed ,tensed.
I was shocked!How did he come there? No guy was allowed to enter hostel room till 8 am. How could he enter?
He sat beside me ,held my hand and said,"Why Swara!!"
I couldn't understand wha he was saying.
"What Sanskaar? And how did you enter my room so early morning?" I asked him anxiously.
"Early!!"he exclaimed
I immediatly looked at the clock and was shocked. Clock struck 11:30 am. I tried to get up but suddenly felt pain in my whole body."aaah! Noo my body" I cried in pain
"See! Swara you are having high fever. I called you so many times but your phone battery went dead after receiving so many calls. I was worried so asked the warden to allow me to meet you. Why did you stay up last night? You knew you were not well still you did all that for me . I m literally feeling bad now."
I could not say anything. I was feeling so weak to move even a bit. There came the doctor then. Sanskaar had called him. Doctor gave me thermometer and checked my pulse rate. After few other diagnosis he replied,"Ms. Swara Bose you need complete rest. You are suffering from fatigue and extreme tiredness. And yes 102 temperature! You really need to take care of yourself .
Umm. Mr.Sanskaar Maheshwari, please ask her to take care of her and give her these medicines on time. Rest everything is fine.dont worry."
He went out giving a pat on sanskaar's shoulder.
I was still in pain. Sanskaar held my hand .
"Now Swara I m not going to listen to you . you have to be here . No excuses! And now be a good girl and have this medicine",said sanskaar.
He gave me medicine and made me lay down on my bed again, caressing my head he asked me to have rest. I was so sleepy that I slept again.
After few hours of deep sleep I woke up. It was 3pm. I had slept alot that day. May be because of strong medicine that doctor had given. Suddenly Sanskaar came.
"Oh sweety you woke up! :)"
'Sweety' !!!! That word sounded soo sweet from his mouth and that too for me. I was smiling.
"Here is your food swara. Get up and have it." He smiled looking at me.
No doubt being in bad health is a difficult time but I would have loved to stay unhealthy always if I could get that side of Sanskaar forever.
I had lunch and remembered about project. Only four days were left for last second round.
"Sanskaar,I 'm sorry. I m feeling bad."
-"What! Bad for what?"
"I m unable to help you in project. How are you able to do it?"
-"Ahem ahem .Ms.Swara Bose I guess you are underestimating your friend"
"No... No i didnt mean that. :("
-" haha just kidding. Dont worry . we have 8 more members in our project if you remember and your health is not important than anything :)"
His words,his care were making me fall in love with him more deeply day by day.
Next day I felt bit better. I insisted him to take help but he didnt allow me. He wanted me to be completly fine first.
Next day I was much better and asisted them in our project. And soon we cleared our round and entered the last round. Only 3 teams were left. I wanted to win more for him rather than for my own wish. His hard work and dedication made me work harder.
And it was last day! The day when our journey of project would end but undoubtly no end to the journey where we both had entered :)
We all were excited as well as nervous. After 3 months of hardwork who wouldnot wish success?
Chief guest were about to annouce the results. We all were standing hand in hand. My heart was running.
Chief guest announced," well done everyone. You all worked very hard. This journey was not about being victorious or being a failure , it was a journey of learning! Learning about your subject, about team spirit,about helping eachother and how to understand eachother.
So excited? Haha yes you all must be. So not taking much time I announce our winning team.
Very very hearty congratulations to TEAM E! A big round of applause. :)"
We all jumped in joy. I didnt realise when I hugged him in front of everyone. I immediatly stepped back and wished everyone . we came to the stage to take trophies.
We all were very happy.
"Wait wait guys! How can this end here?..." Our chief guests continued
"... Rest of the two teams will also get their award of appreciation. Well done all. So happy to see your interest and participation in these co curricular activities despite being in your busy lives. Congrats!"
And principal also congratulated all of us.but our head added a surprise!
" It was very good to see you all working so hard. Now I announce a function for celebration for all of you that will be organised by our university tomorrow. There s dress code and timings which you can all find on the notice board."
It was a beautiful dress code; boys in black and girls in red. We all were super excited for the party at 8pm.
We went homes happily. When I came home I was in tears. That happiness! Happiness of winning was there but happiness of being in love with Sanskaar was more than anything. I thinked about those 3 months all the day .
In the evening, door bell rang.
There was a parcel. As I opened it I was stunned.
It was a beautiful red gown with a note;
' Hope you will like it and wear it tomorrow. I will come to pick you up- Sanskaar'
I jumped. I could nt believe it! Sanskaar sent me a dress!! My first present .
I wanted that night to end in a minute so that I could wear that gown and goto the party with him.
And most important feeling was him caring for me so much! I started believing that he too had feelings for me . My joy knew no bounce. I decided to confess my love in the party.
I was jumping when a glass fell on the floor and broke into pieces.
I m not superstitious but I dont know why I was bit scared.
i made myself understand that nothing could go wrong but still I remembered dida's belief of glass breaking as a badluck.
I prayed to god and slept at night smiling dreaming about him and his love,believing nothing could go wrong.
