"For a girl of my age I have undergone lots of things. This is making me go crazy. I need to put a fullstop. Im getting married" Reshmi said.

"Yaar dont hurry. At last yew will end up thinking that was better than marriage" I said.
Everyone laughed.
"Yew dont say me. For how many days are yew going to keep your love to yourself " Swasthi asked.
I stayed quiet. Krishi. Our senior. He is doing sec yr M.B.A. I saw him for the first time in this same cafe cum restaurant. It has been two years. Since then Im in love with him. Mine is love at first sight. When I saw him for the first time I didn't know he belonged to our college. After three days I saw him in my college. I started to know about him. He has a Royal Enfield bike. Whenever I see him coming in that bike, I wished to go for a ride. It was one such day when I was longing to go in that bike with him, an incident happened. It was late that night. It was around 9.30 . I returned after attending my classes. The road was deserted. For nearly half an hour I was waiting for auto. I couldnt get a cab. So I was waiting in bus stop. Unexpectedly he came there. He stopped the bike and asked about my whereabouts. When I explained him everything, he said he will drop.I was happie. I was also scared. I didnt say anything.He too didnt utter a word but just left.Time passed.It was 10.10. So I decided to walk till the end of that road. I was scared. There were not too many persons in the road. I plugged in my headsets and started to walk. Still I was terrified. At that time a bike with loud sound came furiously and stopped next to me. I clenched my fist tightly and screamed. But the person laughed out loud. It was him. He was looking at me with a smile. I felt ashamed.
"I called yew na. Why didnt yew come with me. Yew know me well. Then why did yew feel reluctant" he asked.
So he knew very well that I was following him. I sank in my own thoughts.
"Are yew going to come with me now. Or still yew are gonna walk" He asked.
I answered his question by sitting in his bike. My favourite bike. His royal enfield. He started to talk.
"Yew always used to talk but why are yew silent all of a sudden"

" yew are somebody whom I barely know. So I dont know wat to talk" I said.

"Oh. So yew didnt know that Im Krishi and I belong to ur college. So yew didnt know anything about me. Then why do yew follow me everyday."

Straight question directed towards me. I was quiet. He stopped his bike. I didn't understand why did he halt.

"Why did yew stop" I asked.

"Eat well and sleep tight. This is my number. Whenever yew are alone Contact me ill drop yew at home. And we have arrived at your home. If your father catch yew coming home with a stranger then I dont know what will happen. So its already late. Go inside" he said.

Only then I noticed. We were outside my house.I got down from his bike and ran inside. Later whenever I saw him at college I started to talk to him. But I never called him or texted him. Neither did he. We never met outside the campus.

"Oii.. What are yew thinking  I have been asking yew for such a long time. Answer me " Swasti's voice broke my chain of thoughts.

"Dont be silly. I dont even know whether he likes me or not. I think he sees me only like a friend. I can't come to a conclusion just because he speaks to me.Just leave it this way. Nobody gets hurt" I said.

"Alright leave. Gimme your phone " Saakshi asked.

I gave her my mobile. After two minutes 'its ringing. Talk'. She said and handed over the phone to me. When I looked at the screen it showed 'Krishi'. Before I could disconnect the call, it was picked up. I stayed quiet. I didnt have any idea what to talk.

"Hello.. Yew there. Speak something girl. What happened. Are yew vokay" he asked. His voice sounded concerned. I paniced.

"Nothing is wrong Krishi. I just wrongly dialled" I said.

"I know. Otherwise why yew would have called me ". I laughed. Little we spoke. He said "say something". Meanwhile I asked my friends what to say. Swasthi took out a pen wrote something in tissues and asked me to read it to him.

"Krishi. I need to tell yew something important. Tommorrow after yew finish your exams meet me in mall. Ill wait for yew at coffee shop. Sharp at 6.00 pm." I said and without even waiting for a reply I disconnected the call. Before I understood what I was doing I ended up making fun of myself. They laughed at me.

"This is a longtime plan. Only today we were able to execute." Reshmi said and winked at me. Though I was happie. Part of me was scared. About how he will respond, how my family will react. We spoke for little longer and left the cafe. We made Saakshi to pay the bill and escaped. I never knew what was awaiting for me at home. I didn't know that this will be the lat time Ill be laughing in my life. Had I known already I would have been preapred for it.
