******jhanu pov********
After two days , I started my home tuition. First day Vinay dropped me at that address. It was an apartment which is in fifth floor and it was two building away from Abhi's house. As it was my first job I was tense. But nandini akka was very friendly with me and her son Rohan is very cute and smart. He was studying in 1st class. I used to take tuition in his studying room and that room has balcony. From that balcony, I can see abhi's house very clearly.
One day while I was tutoring Rohan, I heard music from outside. Someone was playing guitar and it was melodious. I went to balcony and search who was playing guitar. Then I was surprised to see that person.
It was Abhi.......
I didn't believe my eyes. I pinched my hand whether it was dream or real .
Yes it was real Abhi.
Oh my God! I didn't believe it.
When he was playing guitar. He was looking handsome , not less than any model.
I never thought Abhi will play guitar like this. Today I noticed a new person in Abhi. Even though he is rich and talented . He is friendly and simple with everyone. I think that's the reason he has so many girls followers in our college.
Then I realised how I was gazing at him. I immediately came to the room and did my work.
These days my heart is thinking about Abhi whenever I am alone. I don't know what magic this abhi doing on me. His smile, his words , everything in him making me attracted towards him.This is a new feeling to me.
Few weeks passed, I become busy with college, home tuition and dance classes. Our sem II exams dates were also announced. One day I, Swomya and Jai were discussing about subject doubts in canteen. Sowmya got a call , she excused herself as it was noisy in canteen, she can't able hear the voice from the other side. So she went outside the canteen and attending the call.
At that time abhi saw and came towards us and greeted me. As I was busy in clarifying my doubts in subject. I smiled at him and again listening to jai's words. Abhi stood for 5 minutes but I didn't speak to him. After 10 minutes I looked for him but I didn't find him. From then onwards he was stopped talking with me, even if I smile at him no response. I want to talk to him but he was avoiding me. I felt sad about his behaviour towards me.
After 1 week , I and Swomya went to canteen to have tea as the climate was very cold. I saw Abhi who was sitting at canteen. I want to talk to him as he was avoiding me from few days. As he was alone, I want to ask why he was avoiding me.
I said sowmya that I want to meet abhi and will back in few minutes.
I don't know why I am missing him so badly and why his silence is killing me.
"Hi abhi", I said with smile.
Hi jhanu, he said with serious tone.
"I want to talk to you", I said.
"I am busy now. I am going to home" he said as if he as no interest to talk with me.
I hold his palm and asked him, " why you are not talking me abhi? " I asked him.
" Why should I talk you jhanu? You were busy with your classmate Jai even you haven't time to say hi when I speak to you" he said angrily.
I was shocked with abhi words. First time I saw another side of Abhi , rude and egoistic.
"Abhi, please don't take it serious. On that day he was clarifying subject doubts and I thought you will wait for me." I said with pleasing tone.
" Okay then you got new friends then enjoy with your friends" he said.
I know on that day it was my mistake to make you wait" I said with pleasing tone.
But he was not all listening to my words.
"Listen abhi, we are discussing the subject that's all. You will also sometimes busy with your other friends then why are behaving like that. Okay then if you don't want to talk I am going. " i said with almost tears in eyes.
"Jhanu please stop. Do you really want me to talk with you?" he asked looking into my eyes.
"Hmm..." I nodded my head as yes.
"Then you have to do one thing" he asked me.
" What" I asked him.
" you say okay then I will tell" he said.
"Okay promise. Now tell me" I said.
"Nothing difficult jhanu, you should come to aruku trip with all our friends gang day after tomorrow as you will your exams by tomorrow. Even Vinay will also coming with us. " he said with smile.
" what aruku trip!" I was surprised.
"But my nanny never give me permission abhi. Not only that whenever we go to any places my sister , poorni will come with me. I can't able come to aruku trip with you all. I am sorry. " I said with pleasing tone.
" okay then , ask your sister and swomya to join us. Anyways Vinay will be there, your sister will not get bore. You promised me. So ,there will no or if or but" he said.
"Okay then I will try." I said.
I think I did a great mistake to start conservation with abhi.
"Okay then jhanu . I am very happy now" he said.
I saw abhi's face brighten suddenly as if he got a lucky dip. Till now his face was serious but now he was smiling like a kid as if he achieved something...
Abhi saw sowmya as she waiting for me. Abhi called her Sow to joined us. He ordered snacks and tea for us. When we were waiting for our order. Abhi asked about aruku trip to sow.
She was seriously glaring at me as if I know the program earlier and I hide from her.
Sow was looking at me. I don't know, what to say. After observing my facial expression, Abhi was smirking at me.
I want to kill that stupid. Even I don't know my program till now. He was asking my friend about trip.
I don't know why he was so confident that I will come. Meanwhile , our order came and we were busy in eating. Akash Anna and Madhuri also joined us. Again they were also started the same topic. Madhu pleaded me to come with them as she want to spend time with Akash Anna. If no girl will come to trip her mom will not give permission.
I said , " I will try Madhu."
We all spent there for few minutes and went to our classes.
Our sem II exams completed. I hard work for my exams. Finally our all exams completed and holidays schedule also given.
But I was worried about aruku trip. So many questions were running in my mind.
Whether my nanny will give permission or not?
What will Vinay think if I joined with his friends?
What if that arrogant Ragini comes to trip?
Oh good! What is happening !!!
As it was last exam, I and sow was waiting for Vinay at play ground. After long time Vinay went to play match with his friends. I was sitting in audience gallery, waiting for vinu.
Sow asked me whether I will go to trip?
I don't know sow!what if that Ragini comes. I don't feel comfortable with her" I said with sad smile.
Do you have interest for trip? I asked her.
She said "I have interested but we are going to tirupathi with my relative this night".
"First of all , don't think about that Ragini. Just go to trip with them and enjoy ,next time I will also join with you people" she said and left me as she have to get ready for her tirupathi trip.
I was sitting in the ground and watching cricket match. Vinay, Akash Anna , Abhi was playing cricket.
First time I saw Abhi playing cricket. He was playing fantastic almost like professional player. Without blinking my eye, I was watching him. Suddenly Abhi saw me as I was staring at him. I felt embarrassed and turned my head in other direction.
Now I realised why Abhi has girls followers. He looks very handsome. Even anyone can think he is model.
At last there cricket match completed. Vinay came to me and we were about to start for home. Akash Anna stopped me and asked whether I am coming to trip.
I don't know what to say. I understood why he asked me. It's because of Madhu.
"yes , we are coming to trip. My nanny gave us permission" Vinay said to Akash.
I was shocked by Vinay words.
I don't know when vinu asked nanny and how she gave permission.
Akash hugged vinu and said thank you.
I smiled at Akash Anna , how he is crazy about Madhu And her love.
After 15 minutes , Abhi joined us but his face looks irritated.
Vinay asked abhi, " why he was irritated?"
"Due to one of the junior girl" Abhi said with angry face.
"Why ? What happen?" vinu asked him.
"That proposed me , if I don't accept her love she want to kill herself. She was blackmailing me. Stupid girl don't she think about herself and family. What type of she is." Abhi said in angry tone.
Vinu laughed at him ," you are one of handsome guy in College. So there will girl followers buddy. You are one rejecting all girls . Don't you like any one in our college?" vinu said to Abhi.
"Stop it abhi. If you tell like that he will think it is true that he really handsome." I said in teasing tone.
Abhi was glaring at me after listening to my words.
To make him more anger I said , " you look good but not like my Akash anna and vinu".
" Really !" he smiled to my words.
Vinu said "okay ,we meet in rly station tomorrow at morning 5.30".
I and vinu started to home. While we were going to home . I asked how he convinced nanny.
He told , " we are going to friends sister marriage".
I was shocked with vinu 's words.
How can he tell lies to nanny. I scolded him for telling lies and convince her. What if nanny know the truth later, I asked him
" Oh stupid , from so many days I am lying whenever I go to trip. You people found me?. And I promised Akash that we are joining in the trip. Even poorni also coming with us, don't worry" he said.
Finally, we reached our house and started preparing for tomorrow trip.
*********Abhi pov************
Our college days were going quickly, our sem -6 exams dates were announced. Everyone were in busy in preparation for exams. Even if I am busy in assignment, projects and other things. I never miss to see my jhanu. Without her notice, I started watching her. Now a days , I become so possessive towards her. Even though she was talking with any of classmates I mean boys. I was getting angry.
When I saw her talking with Jaideep, one of her class mate in canteen. I got angry but I saw them discussing about some subject. So I decided to talk to her. But she didn't give any reply to me but smiled at me. I wait for 5 minutes, but she was busy in listening to Jai deep. First time in my life, someone neglected me that too jhanu, for whom I am crazily in love. I felt dejected and left that place. I avoided her for what she did to me.She was trying to talk to me but I was very angry on her.
On last day of my exam, I was waiting for Akash in canteen then jhanu came to talk to me. She was saying sorry. I know she was busy in studying on that day. But I was becoming very possessive towards her.
When she said that when I was busy with my friends then I understand what she mean.
She was talking about Ragini. How she behaved with jhanu.....
I saw tears in her eyes. Then I understand how much I hurt her.
Then I got one idea. As she was asking me to forgiveness. I took advantage that she have to come for aruku trip with our friends.
When jhanu said she will try to come. I felt very happy as if I achieved something.
Finally, I waiting for tomorrow trip. I returned home. I didn't get sleep whether she will come or not.
If jhanu don't come. What will I do?
Next morning, all our friends gathered at vizag rly station. I was eagerly waiting for Vinay.
From behind I heard one person asking me, Abhi ,I think you are waiting curiously for someone. I turned my head seriously. It was Akash.
I want to kill him. I am very tense whether jhanu will come or not? Now this i***t is teasing me.
" stop you i***t, I am very tense by thinking whether jhanu will come or not and other side you are irritating me" I said with irritated tone.
" hey buddy cool. Vinay, jhanu and her sister poorni is on the way to station . Just now Madhu called them." Akash said with smirk.
"Thank you" I said with bright smile.
Within 10 minutes , Vinay come to station. My eyes were searching for jhanu as she didn't come with vinay. She was buying some books and water bottle. She was looking very beautiful in sandal colour salwar with perfect hair style.
" Do you forgive Abhi as I am coming with all of you? " jhanu asked with her innocent face.
This girl is making crazy day by day. First time in my life, I am having new feeling in me. I want to kiss her.
" Yes madam, I forgave you. Welcome as it is your first trip with us" I said with bright smile.
We all friends boarded the train. Vinay introduced jhanu' s sister, poornima as it was first time she was coming with us. Poornima is also simple and traditional like jhanu.
Akash, Madhu were sitting side by side. Jhanu and poornima were sitting together. I and Vinay were chatting with each other.
After 15 minutes our train started. Akash and madhu were in their own world. As it takes 5 hours to reach aruku valley, we started to play cards in the train. As our train started at morning 6 am, almost everyone are in sleepy mood, but for me sleep is far away. I was busy in staring jhanu. She was busy in reading novel. After sometime Madhu snatched novel from jhanu's hand and asked her why she is coming to trip?
She looked at me and said for all of you.
"Then why are reading novel, let enjoy the trip" madhu said Jhanu.
We start playing antakshari , cards and finally we are near to our destiny , aruku valley....
