The Story Of Us

THE DAY WHEN THE SOULS CROSSED THE PATH

"What's meant to be will always find a way"
― Trisha Yearwood

It was a usual day of our second year of college, we are commerce students. The S.Y B.Com student body from all the sections were merged, courtesy to the strength (note the sarcasm please :P). She was in L.L division which was for Gujarati medium students and I was in H.L which was for English medium students.

It was the lecture of economics, the professor who taught us was such a great professor, he taught economics in a way that we would understand it way easily. But I'm allergic to it, I get seizure during the lectures of economics (not serious one), it's just sleep over powers everything. But being a below average student I am, since my passion is somewhere else. I was still with firm decision that I'll get good grades which never happens. She and another girl were sitting a desk ahead me talking about Economics and I overheard it. Approached them regarding the notes if can get it.

"Hi", I said
"Hey ", they said

"Can I get a copy of these economics notes if possible"
"Yeah sure, why not"

"Alrighty then, can I have your cell ?" I asked and she gave.
While typing I said," this is my number, and if I don't receive your call, call on this number it's my dad's number, and even if not there, call on this number, it's my landline number and this is my email
address, since I don't have have an android mobile you gotta mail me the stuff here. Oh by the way this is my date of birth 21-11-1993 (since I was just filling the data, stupid much I know) and yours?"

She was watching me with some kind of horror in her eyes, that who the hell on earth is this person who's disguised as a girl. But that's me being way normal, that's who I am. And I asked again, "Dude, your DOB ?"
She blinked for a couple of times and then said, "Oh, its 22-11-1993"

And now it was my time to be awestruck now, "Shitting me right !! "

"Nope, not at all "

"Ok, so what's the time of your birth ?"

"4.15 p.m" she said

"Which means I'm 33 hours elder than you","Call me Dee Dee", I practically threatened her to call me that since I'm the elder one.

"Dee Dee", she was forced to say since she wanted to get rid of me As Soon As Possible, she was in the verge that somebody, please somebody ( A Knight In Shining Armour) come here and save her soul.

"Good", I said

After a halt I spoke again, "Chalo gotta go now, I'll see you later"
See you never that's what she was chanting in her mind, "Yeah see you later then."

And I Turned Around and Left. Both the girls breath out which they were holding for such a long time. Fate was not on their side I came back again and asked, "What's your name ?". Since I had all the details to save the number except her name, I know silly of me.

"Shailaja", she said and she was so not interested in knowing mine but like I said, fate was not on their side that day. " I'm Shivani", I said. "And yours", I asked the other girl, who was no silent because she wanted to go so unnoticed. She wanted to stay out of this mess. "Yesha", she said.

So, Dearest readers this is how we met, never ever anyone from us would have thought, sometime in our near future, our roads will merge, we'll be ever more than just a notes friend. Never ever thought that we will become each others heartbeats.

Dear reads, this is how our journey began and none of us ever regretted anything about it. They did initially but I was being normal.
