Rishi packed his bag in 5 minutes and rushed to the station, everyone from the family was starring at the huge clock on the platform, guard blew the whistle, waved green flag and the train left the halt. They were sure of Rishi missing the train, but this time, he proved them wrong. Akin to the train scene in famous Hindi movie DDLJ, Rishi boarded the train last minute and also managed to pull up on board the pretty girl by holding her silky hand, who too was on the verge of missing it by all.
-thank you-
-it was my pleasure-
-Sorry?-
-I mean, its okay-
-okey-
Rishi joined his family and was immensely glad to learn that the girl shared the same coach. How could he simply waste the opportunity of befriending the cute creature? But how? He persuaded his younger sister to click a conversation with her. That too, didn’t work, the girl was some kind of invincible jerk who wouldn’t give in with ease. Broken heart, he went to sleep.
-get up Rishi, how many times we have to wake you up, everyone is out-
-5 minutes Maa-
-darling, its not home, the train will depart soon, get down quickly-
-what! where’s she?-
-who Ria ?, she is already down, now common fast-
-not Ria maa, where is….-
-who?-
-no one-
Very disappointed, Rishi was strolling at the lowest speed carrying his backpack as if a dead-body. The month long excitement of attending cousins wedding had disappeared, leaving train created some kind of void within.
-hello…,hello…, welcome g, how was your journey, hope you had no trouble-
-oh no no, it was all smooth-
- freshen up yourselves, breakfast is ready-
- ya sure, we’ll not take long-
- you are not allowed to, many things to do, shaadi ka ghar you see-
Rishi went up to his cousin’s room and knocked the door vigourously.
-chutki, quickly open the door, I wanna see the bride, is she shy or flamboyant as always-
-no, am not, give me a minute-
- quick , quick, I cant wait to see my kiddo sister grown up into the bride-
-here I am-
-wow, you are looking gorgeous, may I come in-
- of course bhaia, what’s this asking permission and all?-
- I would not if I had not seen the other girl’s back in your room-
-oh..don’t worry, she is my best friend, arrived an hour before, from your city u see-
-ahaa…I see(eyes flashing and mind thanking: thank god, I saw you again, I thought I had lost you)
- Taani, this is Rishi and Rishi , this is Taani, my darling friend-
-hi-
-hi-
-so , you belong to Calcutta, you don’t look like a bong-
- no, I belong here, I am there for my studies-
-alright, good decision-
-of what?-
-studying in Calcutta, it’s a nice place-
-no, its not , I had no choice-
-hmm, bad for you-
-excuse me, I have some work, Chutki, I will be back before evening, I haven’t yet met my parents-
- make sure, you come soon, I cant handle it all without you-
-sure, bye both of you-
-bye……-
-bye……-
-chutki, tell me something, is this girl a born boorish or she is pretending to be one infront of me-
-hello..! bhaia, she is too cute and who are you to be given importance-
-hello…you,ur brother is too handsome to give any heed to such a loutish babe u see-
-ya, ya-
-leave all this, be serious, am so sad that today is the last day of the free life-
-ya, I know, but what a poor girl in this world can do after marriage-
- I was talking about your dulha chutki-
-bhaia..u are too bad-
- no doubts, see, even your friend is frightened of me-
-why you are after her?-
-I kind of like her-
-what?, in the first meeting-
-yes, it was like love at first sight-
- I didn’t find any such thing while u guys were talking-
-not now, chutki, she was with us in the train-
-ofcourse, ofcourse, quite possible, she came by the same train-
- so , u see, she fell for me-
-ha, ha, check urself bro, and yes, all the best, she is a tough nut-
-we will c-
Through out the wedding, Rishi’s focus was solely on Taani and he kept zooming in and out his puzzling pair of eyes. Taani could very well understand this and kept avoiding him throughout, though by the time it was to bid the bye, even she felt the jingle in some part of her heart. Happy wedding- and all were back to their respective dwellings.
