Tears of Insecurity

Chapter Fifty

Previously -

Susheela who was sitting beside Lily raised her brow at her. Lily was red, not sure from anger or shyness.

'Ro bhai ke liye Lily bilkul sahi rahegi!', Susheela smirked in her mind.

"Shut up! Agar tune Aisa kuch kiya toh tu maar khayega. You know what? Mujhe nahi baat karni tujhse. Hum pohonch gaye hai. Susheela ki match shuru hi hone wali hogi, jaldi aa jaa.", Lily said cutting the call.

"Chalo jaldi Pramod! I can't miss this match! Mujhe Suhseela ka har ek move dekhna hai! I wanna boast it in front of my friends!", Mini said looking out the window eagerly.

"Ha ha mom. Ye match mere liye bhi sabse jayda important hai.", Pramod said chuckling.

The driver stopped the car in front of a huge academy. Susheela and Lily got out of the car, Susheela carried her duffle bag on her shoulder even though Lily had insisted she take it instead.

"Susheela you sure tumhe koi madat nahi chahiye na? Please, mujhe apna friend hi samjho. Kuch bhi chahiye hoga toh mujhe bol dena, okay? Do you want me to carry your bag?", Lily asked taking the bag out of Susheela's hand.

"Thankyou so much Lily!", Susheela didn't know why but the girl standing in front of her gave her a sense of comfort and love, something which she never seems to find easily.

Lily and Susheela had just known eachother for a couple of minutes but to them it felt like an eternity.

"No need to thank me love, now go and rock it! I'll be cheering on you from the bleachers.", Lily broke the hug and smiled warmly at her. Susheela returned her smile and was about to go and sign in her entry when Pramod and Mini came running from behind her, panting and exhausted.

"Susheela beta!", Mini called out. Susheela turned around and an instant smile lit up her face as she saw her favourite human running up to her. Susheela met her half way and both of them hugged eachother tightly. Pramod was gasping for air, the poor boy didn't get a good parking spot and so he had to park far away from the destination. Him and Mini had to run all the way in order to catch upto Susheela, all the while Pramod was busy grumbling about Indian parking system and how bad it is. Both, him and Mini didn't want to miss out on the match and so they came running.

"All the very best beta! Rock it! Mera naam roshan kar ke hi aana.", Mini patted Suhseela on her head.

"Ji aunty! Aapko proud feel karungi!", Susheela hugged her once again before she flunged herself in Pramod's arms, taking him by surprise. Pramod was quick to wrap his arms around her and hold her tight against his chest.

"Thankyou so much for everything chotta haddi! Tum nahi hote toh main yaha nahi aa paati. Tumhara chehra dekhe bina main match ke liye nahi jaana chahti thi. Tum meri lucky charm ho.", Susheela whispered in his ears. Pramod's heart fluttered and he blushed.

Susheela broke the hug and gave him a huge smile. "Aapko mujhe thankyou kehene ki koi jarurat nahi hai. Aakhir bestfriends ek dusre ka saath nahi denge toh aur kon dega?", Pramod said giving her a comforting smile.

"Mins ye toh khud apne aap ko friendzone karta rehta hai.", Lily face palmed herself.

"Wahi toh! Kya karu main iss ladke ka?", Both Mini and Lily looked up at the sky and sighed dramatically.

"Susheela aur iske bacche hone ke baad bhi ye yahi kahega kya?", Lily murmured under her breath.

"Suhagraat pe kahega toh bacche kabhi nahi honge.", Mini added and rolled her eyes.

Susheela's happiness was short lived as a tall and handsome man came shouting from behind her. Susheela cursed under her breath and turned back to face her coach who looked heavily pissed at his student.
