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 a small chocolate bar and had it for lunch. Nothing more. I somehow felt Sky wanted to ask me something. His eyes made me think that. Or it was really my illusion. My world of imagination and fantasy where I dream to be with him. Ellie was asking me to have some more. I replied that I don't wanna eat now. And mostly avoided her or simply dodged her intuition.

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.
