After Tenth

chapter 7

They say , soulmates ' minds are connected to each other by birth . So , when you lie awake on the bed next time , remember , somebody's lying awake too .

There I was lying on my bed , with my eyes wide open . I just couldn't manage to catch a wink. Yes , I was suffering from insomnia , clinical insomnia. I was addicted to laxatives , but I had decided to give up my addiction as it was really a pain to keep up with laxatives and their ever increasing doses.

I tried to keep my mind occupied , by thinking about the random happenings of the day .

His eyes ; big , black and beautiful. His skin , the hue of the golden dew found in paradise . His hair , raven black . His smile , so boyish yet so mischievous . It made me totally crazy .

Hey wait ! What the heck ! I was thinking about Kethan Iyer ??? Nooooooo! This just can't happen .
Too much . Thinking to keep your mind occupied was good , but I was just overthinking.

I decided to log on into facebook . I guessed it would help me get over my boredom.

I logged in to see 50 notifications . I was in no mood to check them . While I was checking out the News Feed , I received a message . Shit ! It was from Kethan !

Kethan : Hey there ! Y r u up at this tym of d nyt ?

Shanaya : Insomnia bruh ! Wbu ?

Kethan : bored . So thought would kill the time on fb .

Shanaya : k tell me , what did u have for dinner ?

Kethan : why do u ask ?

Shanaya: oh c'mon ! I am just asking cuz im bored.

Kethan: to be frank , I don't remember it myself .

Shanaya : hmmm.. what a poor memory u have yaar ! Tch .. Tch .. Tch ..

Kethan : what Tch.. Tch ..Tch ?? U don't do that okay ? As if u remember what u had for breakfast today ?

Shanaya : technically , it's 2 :47 am and so it's morning . So for breakfast right now I have got a glass of Oreo Frappucino .

Kethan : who made it ?

Shanaya : I myself made it .

Kethan: where d'ya get the recipe from ?

Shanaya: stole it from Starbucks . Ha ha ha !!!

I don't know till what time we had our sweet little conversation , cuz all I know is that when I opened my eyes I found myself sleeping on my laptop.

What a nice pillow ! Ha !

And to see my angry mom waiting to spit enquiries on me .

But I don't know what suddenly changed her expression from the angry one , to a sweet nice one . I was shocked myself .

' I will get you coffee . Studied all night long .'

' Studied ?' I muttered to myself as my mom left the room .

And I opened my laptop to see the Meritnation page on .

See , we Indian students are so talented . What we study and when we study , is something we don't know ourselves .
