transported to 90s !! i don't want to die

chap -3

They could reach their by walking and to save some .they walked for a long distance. There were many people around.  Naina was amazed by all the pretty kashmiri girls walking around casually . She looked at Arjun whose face was as straight as bamboo and he didn't even bat an eye on those girls. 'is he evan a man'. Naina thought.

She quickly caught up with Arjun who  was walking with his long legs. Naina was hungry she shook Arjun's hands "I am hungry".
"Why didn't you eat when they were offering food". Naina blinked at him in innocently although she was not that innocent. "We have to save money ".

Naina stared at him with a beggar like look. Arjun kept walking forward. Naina knew that if they couldn't reach Delhi by evenings. They will be in trouble. After walking for almost an hour Naina finally saw some old fashioned cars which she previously saw in old movies. They had reached their destination. Arjun stopped a man to ask him for directions. Naina looked around she saw an std as a person from genz generation she was all curious about the surroundings.
Naina was originally from UP living in Rajasthan because her father settled there after his last transfer.

Arjun said -"the station is far from here very far from here ". Naina -"should we take a taxi".
Arjun nodded . Thay looked around there were not much taxi and autorickshaw around but only a cart like structure and a cycle connected to it. Arjun stopped an auto . Naina asked -"we have to go to railway station, how much will it cost".
Driver -"5paise".
Naina was surprised at his reply and looked at Arjun but taking after her mother's habit naina bargained .
"Bhaiya ,the price is too much decrease it a little ".
Arjun stared at naina . The driver didn't reply naina told Arjun "let's go find another one".
Arjun was confusedly looking at her. Naina nodded her head . They walked a few steps . The driver came following them "didi 4 paise".

Naina didn't knew the current rates she was just trying her luck she couldn't bargain blindly anymore.
Both of them sat in the rikshaw . Naina murmured to Arjun -"we have to bargain if we want to survive".
Naina kept looking around during the ride . When they reached station it was already 9. The station was not much big everything was giving a retro look. Arjun went to book a ticket. When he returned he said -"it will only take around 8 so I took a sitting ticket".

The train was already on the platform before they arrived moreover on the 4
Number platform only three minutes were left till departure. Naina and Arjun looked at each other . They started running naina was running slower than Arjun . When they got up the stairs naina started looking around for platform numbers Arjun who didn't see naina around looked behind him. Naina was standing with confusion. He ran to her and held her hand and again started running.

Naina who was flying in air- ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ
The people around them were looking at her laughingly. Naina felt embarrassed.they finally were able to reach on time . Arjun bought two water bottles and naina beside him bought two packet of biscuits. They sat on their seats . It was new experience for naina because she was traveling in this coach for first time .

Arjun sat in the seat in front of her he had fallen asleep. Naina tore open a packet and looked out of the window. She suddenly talked in her mind 'hey , whatever technology are you there'.
An interface appears in front of her. She again said in her mind -" do we have to travel everyday".
Interface -' yes you have to reach the designated target every day'.
Naina -" we will take four days break in between, naina had a plan in her mind.'

When Arjun woke up naina was sleeping soundly. He looked at naina he never imagined that he could be in such an trouble one day. Moreover there would be a child as his mission partner. After he had done so many life losing encounters. He had missed his sister's wedding and was missing.
He counted it as one of those normal tasks he had done in forces. Naina,  as she called herself must not be older than 20 , the innocence on her face was more vivid when she was sleeping. But it would have been boring if she was not here. Arjun thought.

When naina woke up it was already noon she looked at Arjun's seat he wasn't there but many people came when she was sleeping. Looking at these unfamiliar faces she grew anxious and an fear of being left alone crept in her heart.she was about to stand up when Arjun came back. Naina heaved a sigh of relief although they both were on the same boat she was not an idiot to trust him blindly a stranger she has met just yesterday.

Arjun was holding food in his hands. After they ate both of them were sitting silently. The lady who was sitting not far from them asked " aap kidhar Tak Jaa rahe ho(where are you going to)".
A common question asked during train journey. Naina answered her "ji delhi". The lady smiled "humbhi vahi Jaa rahe hai ".(We are going there too)
"Nayi nayi shaadi huyi hai aap dono ki"(are you newly wedded).

Naina and Arjun both looked at each other. Are age gap marriages so common nowadays. Nonetheless Naina nodded her . The lady again said "aap  dono hi bhot sundar ho".(You both are good looking).
Naina thanked her with a toothy smile and Arjun didn't even budge.

She tilted towards Arjun "hey, you don't even know how to smile". Till yesterday the words he spoke could be counted on fingers asking for a smile was really a big thing.

It was dark when they reached Delhi. When they got off the train Arjun carried both of their bags. A panel appeared again. 'you have successfully completed the task for today, you can only take four days reat at maximum and if you want I can assign task at any time'.

Arjun looked at naina , she smiled proudly . "Aren't i awesome". Arjun nodded , she was really good at arguing.
