AA chal bahe jayen aaj barish ki boondon mai
{Come'on lets descend with the rain }

Na kaho tum kuch, na kahen hum kuch ,
{Lets say nothing ,let's sit in vain}

Khamoshiyan kare baaten, isharon mai
{Let our silence sing in melancholy and pain}

*Flashback continues*

"That she fainted, I was talking about my mom" said Jagjeet with a blank expression

"Umm you mean"

"Achoo!!"

She was interrupted by a loud sneezing
That's when she noticed that Jagjit is being drenched because of the well he is holding the umbrella above her head
She stood up and asked

"Are you going to the metro station
We can talk while walking to the metro if you are okay to accompany me " said mahima with a formal smile

"Gladly,sure" - said jagjeet with a glint in his eyes and lips extending in genuine smile( a rarity for him)

They walked silently for a few minutes but Mahima's brain was bombarded by a lot of questions after contemplating for a few minutes she finally uttered -

"Why is your mom..... I mean did you consult the doctor about her " said mahima , hesitation could be clearly sensed in her voice

"Yes my dad did , it's normal for people her age to have ailments but she has been unusually ill for the past few days , hope its not serious " said jagjeet in a normal tone but amazed at his own behaviour

{ His brain: "What are you doing ? why are you sharing  your family secrets with her ? you never do that , what's wrong with you"}

"Mahima can I ask you something" he contemplated for a few minutes and then finally asked what he wanted to since their first encounter

"Why are you taking anti depressants"

............

Jagjeet's pov:

"I'm sorry if I am overstepping, but I am just a bit concerned "

{His brain: "What's wrong with you Jagjit this is the second time in a day when you said sorry without any mistake of yours that so not you I mean I am warning you to stay away from this girl"}

I am not going to meet him again so I may share and class may be over in a week or two maximum so .......she thought to herself

"I get panic attacks by any unwanted touch or catcalling " she said in almost a whisper

I felt my blood boiling and my right hand balled into fist, the grip at the umbrella tightened at the mere thought of anybody else touching her, something about her is raising an unwelcomed but not unpleasant thing in my heart

{His brain: Why are you so unsettled , get a grip on yourself }

AUTHOR'S POV:

"So you can skip the classes when you feel unwell and don't worry about notes I mean I will provide my notes
to you" he said reassuring

She was surprised because anybody else in his place would have asked about the reasons with a curiosity to know any why , how ,when etc. but he on the other hand was very calm and composed and actually offered some kind of genuine help, that impressed her to no limits( to put it mildly)

"Thank you for the help but how am I going to ask about the notes" she questioned

He put forward a hand and asked for her phone which she reluctantly handed over he put in his number ,gave a call to the number and said "that's me"

Rest of the walk was silent only the rain drops and cool Breeze were talking in symphony and pleasure it was like a scene straight out of a romantic novel
(Author's brain: it is indeed a scene from a romantic novel 😉😉😉 )

" Here we are" jagjeet announced which brought her back to reality and she realised that they have already reached the metro station

"I am sorry, I was rude to you , said mahima and it felt as if some heavy stone was lifted from her shoulder

"Yes you were" said jagjeet, "but its okk" , plastering a slight smile on his face

"Okk ,it was really nice meeting you miss Mahima" , he extended his hand for a handshake

Jagjeet was about to snatch his hand back when she finally shook hands with him ,it sent shivers down her spine and she replied in a shaky voice

"Same here"

Then she sprinted to her platform and boarded the metro without looking back even once

Thats when she realised - "oh shit my umbrella"
