I returned home and saw the time 9:20 a.m., so late!! I have to quickly clean the house and go to university .
I am packing my bag suddenly Akash's mother called, she said to teach Akash 2 more hours today, tomorrow is his exam.
"Lekin Aunty phir to mujhe laut ne mein late ho jayega."I told her.
"Ricksaw se 10 minit time lagta hain" he said.
I stopped for a second. She doesnot know that I went in her house by walk.
I will teach Priya from 3 to 5 today, I already said her. Because of Priya's exam tomorrow, it will take 5 to 6 to walk to Akash's house, then if Akash is taught from 6 to 2 hours, it will be 8.
I said yes, because Akash always fails in maths, he is not good at maths, if I explains well, tommorow maybe he can pass.

"Kya soch rahi ho!" Rupa asked me.
"Kuch nehi "
It seems that Saad did not come to the university today, did my words hurt him so much? Did I say something so hurtful that he did not come to the university, strange!

20,21, 22, 23 !!
I looked around.
Aaj Saad nehi aaya!! Dhaat main bhi na kyu ayega wo har roz.
Before I took the 24th step, Saad stood infront wearing a black t-shirt with a brown jacket over it.
"Ok. Allah Hafez " he said on his phone call and hung up the call.
I did not understand what to say, as I was about to leave.
"Wait" he said. I turned.
"Kya hain!"I asked him.
"Thanks "
"Kyu!"
"Wo dish ke liye''
" Oh. Sorry" I apologized him for mentioning his mother.
"Kyu!"
"Apke ammi ka puchke aapko upset kar diya tha mene"
"It's ok. Tum janti nehi thi"
"Ok. Bye "
I left from there

At 8 o'clock I finally came out of Akash's house, buildings on both sides, a narrow lane in the middle, I was walking through it.
I have not seen any scoundrels or boy's groups.
I am moving forward with fear, I feel most helpless today.
The lane through which I am walking is the lane where it ends.Another lane starts where 5 boys are standing, in the light of the lamp post. It is clear that they have also seen me. It is a secluded area with no one around except those boys.
I walk past the boys, but I feel someone following me. My heart bumped in fear as I looked backed.
Those 5 boys are looking at me, what will I do now, if they does any harm to me!
