Will You Be Mine Again?

Chapter 6

It was December 13th and the geography teacher gave us our final practical which we had to get corrected by the Vice Principal of the junior wing. The marks would be sent for our board exams.

My mind rung a bell. Yaay! I will get to meet him again. Him. His smile. His eyes. His existence.

Stop it, Rishika. You're not gonna daydream again.

Whole day went on with completing our assignments and projects for finals.

That day, after lunch, I got some time to log on Facebook. I was lazying at home.

He was online. (Yippie!)

Me: Hey! The tec gave us the final practicals. If u want them, do tell me. :) (I very well knew that he would need those.)
He: Hi. Where r u right now?
Me: At home. Come tomorrow and take the xerox.
He: How many pages r there?
Me: 2 maps and 2 pages of notes.
He: Okay. I won't be able to come tomorrow. I'll come on Monday.
Me: Ok. As u wish. Btw, submission of evs project with it's abstract is on 16th.
He: What's abstract?
Me: U will have to write aim, objective, etc. In 1000 words.
He: It's like summary, right?
Me: Yep.
He: Hey, u done with evs assignments?
Me: Yep. Just need to write the abstract.
He: Umm...can u give me that? Actually, I'm done with four.
Me: Sure. But plz give it to me before the final submission.
He: No, no. U don't give me the sheets.
Me: Oh.
He: Just send me the pics on WhatsApp.
Me: Well, my net pack is over. I'll recharge and send u.
He: Which phone do u use?
Me: Lumia 510.
He: How many mp is the camera?
Me: It's 5 mp.
He: Ok. Do u want me to get a net pack for u?
Me: No, thanks. :) I'll recharge it.
He: Tell me if u need one anytime.
Me: Sure. But that won't be necessary.
He: Ok. :)

Puneet Dubey is offline.

Ugh! Why did he logout of Facebook all of a sudden? We were chatting so nicely. He was even ready to recharge my net. Gosh! Why would he do that?

Damn it! That night, he didn't even come online and I decided to take a net pack.

He was online on WhatsApp at night.

Me: Hey.
He: Hi.
Me: Why did u go offline?
He: My net is not working. Vodafone data card problem.
Me: Oh. U were online from PC?
He: I've a laptop actually.
Me: That's cool. Did u have dinner?
He: Yeah. U?
Me: Same here. What did u have?
He: Roti and potato sabji. U?
Me: Roti and egg curry. :)
He: Ok. When r u sending me the pics?
Me: Yeah, hang on.

I sent him the photos of the assignments and clearly mentioned teh serial numbers.

He: Thanks a lot. :)
Me: No problem. :)
He: I'll sleep now. Goodnight.
Me: Goodnight. :)

And he went offline. I would meet him again on Monday, I thought, almost jumping up in excitement.

That night, I dreamed of Puneet. He was there, smiling at me and whispering my name softly in my ears. He didn't touch me though. He was waiting by my side like a guardian sent for my protection.

I realized one thing. I was unconditionally in love with this guy.
