It was 10PM...
" It was a pleasant afternoon ( yeah.. It was afternoon not evening). I have told her that I would be there at 10 AM and was able to reach the spot at 1 PM (just 3 hours past the expected arrival). I knew she would shout at me but the reason that I am going to frame was so convincing.
I reached the spot. She saw me and turned her face to the other side. I know that it would happen because its a "very normal girl" thing to show such kind of emotions and I know she would first expect me apologizing. I dint feel like saying her sorry. I went and stood by the side of her. I remained silent for 5 minutes and luckily I could see a small boy selling some ice-cream. I bought 2 and started eating the first one with out giving her the second. She looked at me very seriously. She just loves ice-creams and she couldnt resist. She first tried to take the ice cream but I held it so strongly that she couldnt grab it so easily. She tried for the second time and the result was same. This time she shouted "Gimme the ice cream or forgot me". I thought of not giving the Ice cream but her innocent face and the charm soften my grip and she grabbed it immediately with out a second thought.
With a very soft tone She said " You cant imagine forgetting me. Right?". With a little smile on my face I told her "I dont know. But I cant imagine forgetting such an innocent face." She became emotional. I tried to divert the topic. I started talking about the way I tried to impress her at the very beginning of our friendship, the way I tried to give her the greeting cards in a disguised way, the way I tried to invite her for my birthday party and the way I tried to support whenever someone teases her. She joined the conversation and we both kept on talking for half an hour.
Our topic all of sudden diverted to movies as we both saw a movie poster near by. The poster was a movie starring Nagarjuna. I dont know how but the topic went to the movie Geetanjali. As soon as she started that topic, I started feeling shy. Initially she dint realize what I was going through. I was feeling a bit nervous talking about that movie and could feel sweat on my face. After sometime, she understood the point and soon she too started feeling the way I was. And then ...........
After 2 minutes, I just wanted to run away from that place. I dint feel like staying there. I immediately told her bye and went home. " Said Ruffian in a room that was jam packed with his immediate seniors. (Its been six years 6 months since the incident took place)
Wow that was interesting and what really had happened during that 2 minutes ??
You have narrated the incident just the way we wanted, except the 2 minutes part. Can you elaborate?
" I kissed her" says Ruffian with a sarcastic smile on his face.
How was it ?? I know you had a girl friend but never thought you both had such a romantic incident.
"Where did this incident happen. Next time I will go and wait there"
Its getting late, you can go back to your hostel - said my senior.
After coming out of Senior's room, Ruffian's self realization - "Never in my life I should accept that I had girl friend. They dint let me go till they wanted to hear some kind of unrealistic story. Luckily, they believed everything. Otherwise I could have narrated an another one. Sorry to the lady who was there in the part of story, if at all she exists"
Just an hour before this incident -
Ruffian's friend - "Seniors (second years) are calling you."
Ruffian - "Tell them that I am with final years"
Ruffian's friend - "They understood your logic. You try to escape saying this every time. This time you cannot escape. They enquired final years and got their permission also".
Ruffian - "I am dead today"
With a tension on my face, I went to seniors hostel.
There were around 20 seniors in a room waiting for me. I was shocked seeing all of them and never knew that they were so desperate to interact ( a formal word but in real world its not interaction but some other thing that every junior in this world need to face).
One of the senior started - "I heard you had a girl friend".
Ruffian to himself " Now I am struck if I tell no they wont believe that. Let me tell yes and go ahead with what ever silly questions they ask me."
Then all of sudden one senior asked "Have you kissed her?"
Ruffian "No..No..Not at all"
Senior "Tell us the truth. We will leave you quickly if you tell us what has happened"
Ruffian to himself "Its time for me to tell the "truth"" and so it started this way...
