Diya! Wake up!!! You are no more in school now... Its your first day of college and look at you, sleeping like a kid...
Mom!!! Just 5 min... Won't you give me 5 min of my life???
Diya!!!I must say... You have learnt nothing but to talk all these years...
"Mom!!! That's what you have taught your daughter", chuckled Diya.
Diya! Now stop arguing and get to business... Get ready.. I don't want you to miss the college bus..
(After half an hour) Bye Mom!!! Diya rushes to the bus stop to miss the bus by a few seconds.
Oops! What next?? Auto!!! Could you please drop me at the University? Its getting late..
Diya boards the auto and heads straight to college...
First day at college
New faces; New ambience; Most of all no more uniforms :D Yippeee.. Diya waits to meet someone whom she could smile at and expect some reciprocation..
Hey Diya!!! Hey!! This way.. Look here...
Round the corner was Vivek, a friend of Diya's, from school.
Come.. Meet my friends - Rahul, Sanjay, Karthik and Preethi. Hey guys!! This is Diya, my friend from school, BE in Electronics... A brief introduction to her would be "Study.. Study.. Anything else???" - You can see this quote unanimously in her slam book.
A mixed expression of blush and anger floods Diya's face. Vivek!! Is it necessary to say all this?? Guyz!! Am no such nerd as he describes.. He is just exaggerating :) He is very well known for that...
Talking all this, her eyes traverse right to left across the corridor to find a known face... Wait a minute.. Her eyes came to a standstill when they met the eyes of this guy who's smile was so obviously captivating.
After looking at him for one full minute, she realizes that its really odd to stare at random dudes. By then, they had actually exchanged smiles and a "hi, how are you?" without talking.
C'mon guys!! Why must you talk when your eyes can actually express everything??
But then, for a levelheaded, self-conscious Diya, it was embarrassing.. No more of exchanging smiles with random guys.. With this thought running in her mind, she heads to her classroom just to hear someone call her.. Diya!!!!!!!!!!!!
She turns back to realize Rishi heading towards her. "Hey Diya! You have been staring at me for a while now, if you realize. I thought you would stop by and say a hi. Wassup Madam?? Lost in whose thoughts on the very first day of college ;)" Rishi is a good friend of hers from school. Though they have not spent much time together, knowing that they are in the same plane, turn out to be good friends (look out for more about them :))
Oops!! Now I know why this guy was smiling at me and he very well knows that I did not realize the presence of Rishi anywhere around. A very subtle smile on his face said that all, making her feel even more embarrassed.
Diya! This is Arvind from Computer Science. Arvind.. Diya.. I was just telling him about you.
"Hi Diya" Nice to meet you.. A sudden chill runs through her spine when she heard his mesmerizing voice.. WTH is happening??
"Hellooooooo"
"Oh! Sorry!! Same here"
They both shook hands (who knows if these hands are made to be together forever ;))
Rishi! Need to get going. Catch ya later.. Bye Arvind!
Exchange of a smile is worth than a zillion words....
End of Part 1 (Wait and Watch :D)
