My Innocent Love Story

Chapter Three

Two years had passed since that incident and nothing changed between Randhir and Sanyukta . They still didn't interact ,but never missed a chance to steal glances of each other, whenever they met. Sanyukta used to be extra conscious of her appearance , whenever Randhir was around.

Weeks had turned into months and they got busy with their studies. Sanyukta and Raima were now in 10th grade and took special coaching classes after school. While Randhir being the genius prepared for his All India Entrance Exam for Engineering from home .

One morning, Sanyukta got ready for school and waited near the gate for Raima to join her. It was 8:15 already, the school bus would arrive any moment.

S: " kahan reh gayi yeh ladki, abhi tak aayi Kyon nahi".

She pulled out her mobile from her bag and dialled her number. It kept on ringing and went unanswered .

S: " yeh apna phone Kyon nahi utha rahi.... Ghar pe call karke dekhti hoon."

She dialled the landline number, which got answered by Renuka.

R: " Hello.."

S: " Hello... Namastey Auntyji , Mein Sanyukta bolrahi hoon. ...Aunty woh Raima abhi tak bahar nahi aayi , bus abhi aati hi hogi  ---"

R: " Arrey Sanyu beta, main Tumhe call karne hi wali thi,....woh Raima ki tabyat theek nahi, usey viral hogaya hai woh  aaj school nai jaapaygi ..."

S:"Oh!!!Okay Aunty . Main usse Shaam mein Milne aaongi . Bye"

R: "Bye beta"

The day at school was very dull and boring. She was missing her best friend by her side. She had to eat her lunch all alone in silence without Raima's silly jokes and constant blabbering . She was sitting in her coaching class after school, when they heard the announcement from their principal .

P: " Attension everybody , All the students and teachers , who travel through school bus route no 12, kindly meet me in my office ."

Sanyukta along with other students who used to go with her in the same bus, went to meet the principal in her office .

Student: " Good Evening mam..you have called us??"

P:" Yes...Good Evening girls. I'm sorry  to inform you that - the school bus route no 12 , will not be able to drop you all home today , due to some problem with its engine. So I request you all to call your parents and ask them to pick you up.. You all can use the phone in the front office."

All the students dispersed and formed a queue in the front office , to make a call. Using a mobile phone in the school premises was strictly against the rules,  but her parents always insisted her to carry it in her bag in case of emergency and for her safety.

Sanyukta went to a quite corner , where she couldn't be spotted by anyone. She pulled out her mobile from her bag , switched it on and dialled her landline number. It got answered after 3 rings by her mom.

Anju: " Hello.."

Sanyu: " Hello Ma. Main Sanyukta--"

Anju: " Sanyu ... Sab theek toh hai na baccha??Abhi toh Teri class chal rahi hogi..Tune iss time pe Kyon call Kiya??"

Sanyu: " Relax Ma... Main theek hu. I'm absolutely fine. Woh actually , humari school bus kharab hone ke Karan , aaj aapko mujhey pick karna hoga . Aap Ek Kaam kijiye aap driver uncle ko bhej dijiye , main aa jaongi"

Anju: "Lekin Driver toh Tere papa ke saath , kisi Kaam se Gaya hua hai...par tu chinta mat kar, main kuch arrange karti hoon."

Sanyu: "Theek hai, Ma. Bye..."

Anju : "Bye "

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Anju Aggarwal was really worried for her daughter . She called up Mr. Aggarwal , who said that he was quite far away near the outskirts of the city with some clients and it wouldn't be possible for him to send the driver.
After thinking for a few minutes , she dialled the landline number of Shekhawat Mansion , which got answered by Renuka after a few rings .

Re: " Hello..."

Anju: " Hello... Renu??? Main Anju bolrahi hoon. Sun mujhe tujhse Ek favour chahiye. "

Re: "Kaisa favour ???"

Anju: "Agar tera driver free hai to Kya woh Sanyukta ko school se pick kar sakta hai?? Woh actually uski school bus kharab hogayi ..aur humarey driver ko yeh, apne kisi Kaam se Kahin le Gaye hain??"

Re: "Yeh bhi koi poochney wali baat hai. Aap jab chaho , humarey driver ko bula saktey Ho.... But, aaj woh chutti par hai. Uski ma bimar hai...
Par aap fikar mat kariye . Main Randhir ko bhej doongi, woh usey pick karlega.."

Anju: "Thanks Renu... Tujhe nahi pata Tuney meri kitni badi tension door kardi."

Re: "Arrey Ismein thank you wali Kya baat hai. Sanyu meri bhi toh beti jaisi hai.. Aap tension mat, Sanyu ghar aajaygi"

Anju:"Bye"

Re: "Bye.."

Renuka places the receiver back after the call get disconnected and says to herself in mind,
' Maine Anju se keh to diya , Randhir ko bhej doongi , par yeh ladka maane toh...' , she goes upstairs towards Randhir's room and knocks his door.
