DEHRADUN
Morning, 8 a.m.
The educational capital of India, located at the foothills of Himalayas and surrounded by lush sal trees is experiencing the end of spring.
Even though it's late dawn, the whole campus of DIT is quite as all the students are sleeping soundly in their rooms because of the cool weather...except a girl!
In an amber top and white palazo, she's running in the hostel corridors.Her long plaited hair is vigorously oscillating in the air & her legs are not at all stopping,she is searching for an escape.She sees one and smirks.Hiding down the stairs, she waits while a girl gang came there searching for her.They didn't see the stairs and pass through her.
Making sure no one is around, she smiles coming out,"Aha..bach gayi!"
Until she hears another voice, "In your dreams."
Startled, the girl turns around to see that group narrowing their eyes at her making her gulp.
She tries to smile forcibly and waves her hand, "H....h....hii"
Without bothering to reply, the gang circles her making her confused.Why are they surrounding her?
"Aise kyun kar rahe ho?"
"Taki thujhe bhaagne ki mauka na mile!"
Irritated by their answer, the girl closes her eyes and tighten her fists.Calming herself a bit, she opens only to glare at all of them.
"Ok chalo."
The gang smiles, "Very good."
Annoyedly, she follows them to the University ground where a group of boys are present.
Siya from the girl gang speaks, "So, boys let's start.First Charan!"
Rubbing her palms, she looked more than excited while our girl looked more than vexed.
Siya calls again, "Charan comeon!"
He doesn't go, "Nai. Mein nai bandhwaunga!"
His friends have a hopeful look hearing his denial. Maybe the girls could consider their request.
But, boys, they are the girls.
Crossing her hands, Siya scowls, "Bandhwana padega!"
Muttering, she grabs his hand and brings her before the girl,"Bandh lo!"
The girl annoyingly ties rakhi to Charan.
With a wide grin, Siya loudly calls,"Next Vivek...Rohan...arjun..."
It goes on after sometime the girl finishes tieing rakhis to all the boys while all the girls hug boys happily.
Looking at how happy they are, she gets aggravated.
"Yaaaaar, What is this?Why am I tieing Rakhis to your boy friends?"
Siya replies simply, "Because you are their sister."
The boys snap their head at Siya, "You made her our sister"
One gaze from their girl friends and they calm down.
"Taki tere baare mein kuch na soche ye log", another answers her.
"Par wo kyun sochega?", the girl asks not at all understanding their logic.
Meher from the gang replies, "Because you are "Tejasswi Verma...."
Siya continues, "The brilliant student,a graceful dancer,next secretary and most important...the face of the campus"
