Gurukul - A Life Changing Twist In Four Lives

Part 5- Vivisection

The Head teacher came and started the speech. Bandana was felling asleep. I was giving her a nudge every three minutes. Finally the half an hour assembly finished. Sumedh went to the washroom. "Mera lesson teen ghante baad h, to me car me sone jaa rahi hu" Bandana said. I nodded and she went. Before going she gave an angry look to Siddharth. "Yeh to ese dekh rahi thi jese kha jaeghi mujhe!" Siddharth said. I chuckled and we went towards our Zoology lab. Before entering we saw Sumedh. Bandana and he had the same lesson. "Tum esa kro, Bandana k paas hi chale jao, aur uska Biology can assignment check krlena. Raatko kiya tha to shayad kucch ulta seedha likh diya ho" I said to him and got in the lab.

We wore our lab coats. Vivisection was the main topic of the lesson. It wasn't a theory lesson, it was actually practical. Sir ordered us to go in the garden and collect verms or lizards and then perform vivisection on them. Like seriously dude? Verms? Lizards? Sheehh!! I can't touch them! Poor creatures, why don't you let them live in peace!?
Some of us made excuses but all waste.
We were working in pairs and I chose Siddharth as my partner. I can trust that guy. Sir said we two had to work on lizards.
We wore our gloves and went in the garden.

Some students found verms and lizards easily some didn't. We were searching from half an hour.
"Bas Siddharth, mujhe nhi lagta hame mileghi" I said. Siddharth put his right arm around my neck. I looked at him and cocked my eyebrow. He signed towards the direction of his right hand. I looked at it. He was holding a lizards! And it was some inches from my face. I immediately turned towards Siddharth, and hid my face in his lab coat. He started laughing. I realized the prank and pushed him away. He was still laughing. "Go-to-HELL!!" I yelled and went in the lab again.

After five minutes Siddharth came. He gave me a nudge, I ignored him. He gave me a nudge again, and I ignored him again. He did it for the third time: "Kiya h?" I said raising my voice. "Chipkali h" He said showing me the lizard. He smiled and I shook my head. "Sorry" He said. I smiled and we started working. After doing all the practical work, we wrote the data on our books.
The lesson was over.
We left the lab and started roaming in the corridors, since we had a free period. Suddenly Siddharth stopped and started reading a poster on a wall. "Damn!!" He yelled. I asked what happened. "Under-19 Indian Hockey League ek mahine me shuru ho rahi h!" He said. "To?" I asked confusingly. "Me captain hu, and I thought woh teen mahino me h! Is saal jaldi shuru kar rhe h! We must start our training as soon as possible!" He explained. I was part of the team now. Lots of hardwork and hockey were waiting for me. I nodded, hesitatingly.
I've never ever watched hockey; I just wanted to play because of Siddharth, I didn't know about the League.
But, anything for Siddharth, so I made myself ready for the practise.
