Chapter 64
After I had reached college I had the best time. Lacy didn't come thank G.o.d. I know I can't hide it from her. She would definitely catch me.
But one thing we became a bit close. We chat and had our gossips.
I talked with others as well n.o.body figured out my position. But I didn't want others to pity me or blame me. I just wanted to avoid everything.
Soon cla.s.ses were over and time for lunch break. I was waiting just for this moment to call dad and get some mom's info.
"h.e.l.lo Dad, How is mom? "
"She is better than yesterday. "
"Oh, did she eat anything? "
"Yeah, tea and biscuits in the morning. She had cornflakes meal for breakfast. "
"Thank G.o.d. Did you have your breakfast? "
"No.I am not feeling well. "
"Dad! take it and have your own. I can't handle two at a time. You need to take care of yourself when I'm not around. "
"Um okay. Did you have yours? "
I lied through my teeth.
"I will have it in my canteen. Just now I got a break. "
"Okay have yours.Your mom is okay don't worry. "
"Thanks dad it's okay. I won't worry. Bye"
"Bye Sonnet"
I hung up. By now I saw Sky looking at me. Actually I called dad outside our cla.s.s so no one heard our conversations. So I was a bit relieved.
I took out
Our eyes met.
"Sky what are you reading? "
"I'm reading a book which I had already read before. "
"Oh.I see. You know I got a scholars.h.i.+p last week. "
"What kind of scholars.h.i.+p was that? Will one be able to apply next year? "
"Nope.The scholars.h.i.+p was only for this year. Part of my semester fees will be reduced. It was distributed at international book fair. "
"Wow! Cool. But did you see or read any book or only went to get the scholars.h.i.+p? "
"Dad bought one but I don't know the name. I roamed the stalls and saw many books. But you know books are expensive. "
"What? Seriously you don't even know the book your dad bought along with you? Do people like you really exist? "
"Yeah, I'm the living version of those people. "
"Do you recall the author? "
"Seriously, No"
Actually after my mom's condition I hardly got time to even have a glance at the book. Because of which it was left aside. But I can't simply tell him the reason.
"Okay I'm going to my seat. See you later. "
"Seriously, you don't remember? "
"Yeah, No. "
Sir entered and I rushed back to my place. He was looking at me.
And suddenly turned his head and smirked. I don't know why.
I tuned myself to be in sync with Sir's lecture. It was mathematics cla.s.s.
Sir was praising Sky a lot. He became his favorite student for his diligence in maths and love for cricket and books. Both he and professor had a lot in common. And both never left an inch to make me laugh or blush in that cla.s.s.
"Sunny be ready Sir will call you Sun-net.Ha ha "
"Sky! "
He immediately turned in front.
"Sun-net what's the matter? Any problem? "
Sir came in front me. Sky sat diagonal in front with me.
"No, Sir. I was just busy taking out my notebook. "
"Okay Sun-net pay attention. You are a good student. You need to be proper. "
"Yes Sir. "
Sky from behind was mimicry ing him pointing at me.
I couldn't help but laugh.
After Sir turned in front I whispered with my hands moving
"One slap to you if you don't stop. "
He laughed further and now Sir pointed at Sky.
"Sky any problem. Today I find two of my good students distracted. Both you and Sun-net. "
In my mind I was thinking 'The Reason is only You'
"No Sir. No problem. "
"Then fine let the cla.s.s begin"
After the cla.s.s was over I packed my things. And headed straight for the drawing cla.s.s.
Our benches were apart. But luckily mam called from roll nos were both I and Sky went forward to mam to learn the process.
Our eye whisper continued and his charming smile continued moving me. I was thoroughly bewitched but came to my senses soon.
After the cla.s.s was over. We all went down stairs. And the college was over. Sky, I,Husky and Sh.e.l.ly left together. After that I went on my road to catch the train. On my way to meet mom in the hospital.
