“Hey!
Neha, did you read this notice?” Pinky asked Neha and they turned towards the
notice board.
“What
is Sunny going to tell after the prayer tomorrow?” Tanu thought deeply.
“It
seems that he has outgrown even the teachers’ brain here” Neha said with a
smile.
“May
I tell you?” Pinky said and both of them turned to her.
“What?”
Neha asked.
“I
think that Sunny is going to announce his love for you in front of the school
tomorrow. It’s possible that he may propose you.” Pinky mischievously said.
“From
which slumberland did this thought enter your mind?” Neha stared at her.
“Ha!
My brain works faster than a computer. I can see true love for you in his
eyes.” Pinky said happily.
“I
wish this was true” Neha sighed. “But this is nothing more than a sweet dream.”
“Why
do you say that it’s a dream? I have said it. He will do tomorrow what I am
telling - sure.”
Pinky
raised her finger which struck something behind her. She sighed and turned to
look at a boy fallen on the ground. A heavy bouquet fell from his hand beside
him. He got up in pain. Even though his face was covered in mud, the girls
recognized him.
It
was Gagan.
“Hey!
Gagan, what happened to you?” Tanu was astonished.
“Actually
I couldn’t see because of this huge bouquet in my hand and fell into drain.” Gagan
laughed it away.
“I
know this bouquet is for me. Gagan, you care so much for me. Many many thanks
to you for this gift.” Pinky happily said and Gagan nastily looked at her. She
was the only girl in the school whom Gagan hated.
“I
will get you a mortar and pestle, someday, to prepare spices. Be off, this
bouquet is for Neha.” Gagan offered Neha the bouquet after picking it up.
“For
me, but why?” Neha was expressionless.
“Actually
I want to tell you a message today whatever I have been restless about, since
ages.” Gagan tried to be romantic. Although his face did not allow him to be
so.
“Amazing! The guy is getting restless as if it
was not message but a constipation disease.” This habit of Tanu to interrupt in
between made people feel irritated many times.
