Baby Love

Chapter 20

On the way while driving the car the rain started. The radio that was on in the car stated that there will be going to be heavy rain. The rain and mumbai traffic have weird relation with each other. As the rain started to pour heavenly the traffic jam became intense. As the rain was getting heavy, traffic jam become also heavy. The ride which could have taken about twenty minutes to reach her school was now gonna take at most thirty to forty minutes.

He was cursing the traffic  jam and most of all himself for being so stupid to forget her. His phone again began to ring. Seeing the caller Id he was hesitant to pick at first but nevertheless he cannot avoid. So he picked up.

Without receiving any hello or hii he was barked by the most obvious question "Pauch gaya kya Sidharth, le liya na bachii ko tune"

"No mom baarish ke chakkar mane yaha bahut jam laga hua hai abhi wahi phasa hoon par I think so jaldi pauch jaunga, bas kuch aur minute lage ga" said Sidharth nervously.

"Mujhe to ye samjh nahi aa raha ki mera beta aise kaise kar sakta hai, vo bachii pata nahi kaise hogi , aur shayad ussa bhook bhi lagi hogi dekh na shaam ho gayi hai, I am very disappoint in you sidharth" saying rita maa immediately cut the call showing her immense disappointment in her son.

Listening his mom he became more guilty for his act, why not he has left a sixteen year old girl alone there. His act was not at all justified and he was not having any excuse to that too. His mind was mocking him telling him, this is how he will be showing his concern and care towards her. This is how he will protect her by forgetting her. The ache in his heart tense to intensified  thinking all the possibilities. The responsibility that he took on himself for  taking care of her,  providing her the comfort after her parents ,he was failing miserably in doing so.

He was also not knowing wether shehnaaz will going to forgive him for his act or no. Whether he will be able to look in her eyes and ask for forgiveness. 

His thoughts broke listening a car horn. He look ahead and saw that the traffic got cleared and he started moving towards her school. 

Within ten minutes, he reached the school. Parking the car in front of the school gate he immediately stepped down and started running towards her gate. By the time he reached he was fully drenched due to the heavy rain. His shirt  was clinging on his body and acting like a second skin. His abs were getting highlighted at making him more look sexy as ever. 

He saw a security guard at the gate and asked him  is there any girl who is waiting for somebody to pick her up.

Seeing the positive answer from the security he again asked him where is she. Having  desperation for meeting his bachaa he ran inside the school to that direction where the security guard told him his bachaa is sitting after listening his response.

On the other hand, shehnaaz who was sitting on the bench not far from the school gate was fully drenched in the heavy rain. She was sitting all numb. She is a lover of rain , whenever there would be rain she would dance and sing in it and make herself feel like a free bird and would welcome the rain by spreading her arms. 

But today for the first time she was not feeling anything. The excitement the craziness that she feel every time today it was worthless. She was not having any mood to do so. The feeling of being left alone in this world, being forgotten has surrounded her. She was feeling scared. She wasn't knowing for how long she has to wait for that person who she believed is her protector whose arms our her safest place, whose single sight can cause unknown sensation to her body.

Her tears have now become unstoppable and were flowing continously mixing with the rain drops. While keeping her head down and her hands on her sides she was sitting and waiting for that certain someone. Her solace.
