एक दिन कभी जो ख़ुद को तराशे
मेरी नज़र से तू ज़रा, हाय रे
आँखों से तेरी क्या-क्या छुपा है
तुझको दिखाऊँ मैं ज़रा, हाय रे
एक अनकही सी दास्ताँ-दास्ताँ
कहने लगेगा आईना
सुब्हान-अल्लाह, जो हो रहा है, पहली दफ़ा है
वल्लाह, ऐसा हुआ
सुब्हान-अल्लाह, जो हो रहा है, पहली दफ़ा है
वल्लाह, ऐसा हुआ

At night, at Sehgal house,

Vikram : mujhe toh yakeen hi nahi ho raha hai ki tum ab head boy ho.

Divya : toh mat kijiye, yuvi dekh tere liye khaas rasgulle banaye hai.

Yuvaan : thank you mom, dad want some? oh sorry main bhul gaya tha, not allowed for the senior citizen.

Vikram : ae, tera baap abhi bhi jawan hai.

Divya : haa, khud ko jawan maan na budhape ki pehli nishani hi hoti hai.

He laughed.

Vikram : bass bass, accha advika bhi head girl bann gayi hai na.

He nodded.

Vikram : toh saara kaam uss bichari se mat karwana, zara khud bhi haath pair chala lena.

Yuvaan : dekh liya kitna vishwas hai aapka mujhpe.

Dadi : bass vikram, tum dono ko bohot bohot badhai, mann laga kar kaam karna aur padhai bhi.

He smiled and nodded.

Raj entered the house and advika immediately embraced him.

Advika : papa...!!!!!

Raj : haa haa pata hai bataya mumma ne, congratulations princess, mujhe toh pehle hi pata tha, you'll do it.

Advika : thank you, my chocolates.

Raj : I know, here you go.

Advika : thank you papa..!!!

Raj : only one a day.

Advika : okay.

Sejal : dinner is ready, chocolates rakh do baad mein khana.

She nods.

Sejal : khushi mein yeh mat bhul jaana ki post ke saath zimmedari bhi aati hai, ab jitna dhyan padhai mein lagati ho utna hi dhayan baaki chizo mein bhi lagana hoga.

Advika : I know mumma, I am prepared, aur papa kehte hai na ki asli exam toh life leti hai humara, yeh mera exam hi hai, aur main puri koshish karungi ki main isme bhi top karu.

Raj : that's the spirit, accha yeh chodo, batao birthday ka kya plan hai?

Advika : maine toh kuch nahi socha, aap log hi soch lo.

Sejal : tera friends ke saath koi plan nahi hai.

Advika : ab tak kuch decide nahi kiya, woh elections mein itne busy the na ki yeh baat discuss karne ka mauka hi nahi mila.

Raj : kal baat kar lo, phir hum decide karte hai.

She nodded.

*****************************

At night, they were on video call.

Advika : mumma papa itne khush hai ki kya batau.

Yuvaan : I can understand, yaha bhi yehi haal hai, sach kahu toh main khud ab tak shocked hu, ki main kaise... tumpar toh mujhe pura confidence tha...

Advika : ek baat puchu?

He nodded.

Advika : tumne yeh elections main darr kar peeche na hatt jau isiliye lade na, sach batana.

Yuvaan : half truth, haa pehle sirf tumhare liye kiya lekin phir gradually realise hua ki agar sachme akshay jaisa student, student leader bann gaya toh students suffer karenge, accha yeh sab chodo yeh batao birthday ka kya plan hai.

Advika : tumhe yaad hai?

Yuvaan : of course, yeh bhi koi bhulne wali chiz hai.

Advika : ab tak kuch socha nahi hai, papa ne kaha pehle tum sabse baat kar lu.

Yuvaan : toh bolo kya karna chahti ho birthday par.

Advika : a day with myself.

Yuvaan : matlab?

Advika : matlab harr saal ki tarah, birthday wishes, gifts, party yeh sab nahi karna, ghumna hai, explore karna hai.

Yuvaan : hmm samajh gaya, then be ready for a great birthday.

Advika : kya karoge.

Yuvaan : just wait and watch.

She smiled.

Yuvaan : you have a beautiful smile you know.

She blushed.

Advika : flirt accha kar lete ho.

Yuvaan : main toh tarif kar raha hu, ab tumhe flirt lag raha hai toh....

Advika : yuvaan...good night...!!!

Yuvaan : accha accha sorry.

Advika : kal as leaders humara pehla din hai, I hope accha ho.

Yuvaan : ya, ab late ho gaya hai, so jao, kal milte hai.

Advika : hmm, good night..!!!

Yuvaan : good night...!!!!

*******************************

Yuvaan and Advika stood nervously at the entrance of the school, clad in their crisp white shirts and navy blue blazers.

It was their first day as school leaders, a responsibility they had eagerly embraced but were unsure of how things would unfold.

As the morning bell rang, they took a deep breath and stepped into the bustling corridors.

The students looked up in awe as they passed by, whispers of excitement following in their wake.

Yuvaan and Advika felt a surge of confidence as they made their way to the principal's office to begin their tasks for the day.

Their first challenge came when they had to organize the morning assembly.

With students chattering and teachers bustling about, it seemed like a daunting task.

But with a quick exchange of glances, Yuvaan and Advika took charge, calming the chaos and guiding everyone to their designated spots.

During the break, students approached them with various complaints and suggestions.

Some wanted longer recess time, others preferred healthier food options in the cafeteria.

Yuvaan and Advika listened attentively, making notes and promising to address their concerns during the student council meeting.

As the day progressed, they received smiles and nods of approval from the teachers for their efficient handling of tasks.

The teachers appreciated the proactive approach Yuvaan and Advika displayed in their new roles.
