SwaSan FF (Tu hi Re)Part-2
Its been 7:15 already and the streets of Hedua is lighted by hundread of street lights and bus headlights.The clock on the top of Scotish Church College is also shinning with tubelights and bulbs attached with the big clock...which is continiously showing the time running from hands.Hedua is one of the busy streets of North Kolkata. "One more left dada...hurry na please...i need to catch the bus also na..." shouted Swara, who is desperately waiting for her turn at the panipuri stall. Sanskar already thrown out his bowl as he cant bear the spice level of it anymore.His eyes are visibly red and tears in his eyes. He is waiting for Swara to complete her innings in "phuchka race" which he already gave up."Ummm...yummy" her face glows up in satisfaction and with closed eyes smilingly she puts the last piece of panipuri in her mouth. Sanskar is watching her althrough smiling.He always adores her smiling face, kiddish acts.They became friends from school time and when his father Durgaprasad Maheswari got transferred and shifted to South Kolkata, the first thing that haunted him that time is how he will meet swara now???that time he didn't use his own phone too.The last time when they meet and told her about his shifting issue...she left without saying a single word to him.
But today when they meet again at coaching centre an unknown feels of happiness grabbed him all over again, how terribly i am missing this kiddish things around me..."O hello...what are you thinking about haan??" He is interrupted by swara and comes back to his senses."Nothing" , he added and starts walking besides her on footpath to the main road.Swara as usual is talking continiously about her life in these long six months when he was not there with her and after every sentence she taunts him," yaha aake to u forget me completely...you dnt even came once to see me or meet me in this long six months"...makes a pout face and looks otherside and again started with her story.
He is noticing and accepting all her complaints, teasing because he just loved to do it.He is smiling in his mind that for the first time the city, kolkata, the streets finally welcomed him whole heartedly and he too does the same because today she is with him, Swara is besides him to walk along.He is no more alone in this crowd.While thinking he didnt notice that swara stopped talking and staring him angrily...
"I am talking from so long and you dont even listening to me properly...ok i got it...i'm irritating you may be... I'll nt say anything else now" ...she makes a sad face and is about to leave when he holds her hand and turned her towards him.
"I am nt silent because i'm nt interested in your talking bt because I was terribly missing your voice, presence, teasing, taunts from so long swara...so i am making myself believe that my kaccha nimbu is here again...let me feel your presence completely"...tightens his grip on her shoulder. Swara surprisingly looked into his eyes, inside she is feeling good bt unable to recognise the emotion...They both lost in eachother eyes.
Their eyelock is broken by bus's horn and swara screams, "Are my bus came... ba bye...see u tomorrow in college ok???bt your number!!!!" she cuts her tounge...Sanskar smiles and says,"I already gave a miscal from your cell to mine while u r busy with your panipuri.Swara giggled and get up into bus.He waves her a good bye and leaves for home.
Next Morning at 10am College
Swara enterted the college compound and immediately mesaaged Sanskar
"Where are you??? I'm in college..".Sanskar while in class smiled after seeing the sender's name and opens it with a big wide smile on face."what are you doing with ur phone???keep it aside" , shouted the teacher...he got scared and asks for pardon.Slowly he keeps the phone at desk and rplies back, "at class now, will meet you at canteen...bye".Swara smiled after receiving the message and leaves for class
2pm, Canteen
Swara, Madhumita and Aditya are having their coffee while sanskar comes from back and holds her eyes...she smiled "khatta nimboo...you're late haan",she looks at him while holding his hands around her neck."Sorry" he uttered and asks someone to come there and started," Swara...meet my friend...actually not only friend...he is like brother to me, from past 6 months we know each other and he is my neighbour too"...he lifts his eyebrows..."Hi... I am Lakshya Raichand...and you..."he expands his hand for shaking..."I am swara...swara gadodia...nice to meet you"...she shakes her hand with him...Swara also introduces sanskar to her frnds.They had a long chat with each other and the day signed off with the sounds of smiles and hi5s from this college canteen without indicating a lots of upcoming trouble.
Life is really crazy.we valus them who dont value us and sometimes we ignore the actual moon while counting the stars shine...well every wrong doings demands a heavy price to pay for...
Precap: Lakshya and Swara to come closer, Sanskar feels dishearten.
