Karma [An Indian Story]

The Gift

Finally it's a break after the endless classes. I have to search Parul to give her Diya's gift that she left on the car. I went to catefetaria only to find her missing from her usual spot. I dialled her number. Busy. That's what the phone was showing.
I sent her a text saying she left her gift in the car and I was waiting for her in the cafe.

I turned around and someone bumped into me.
"Sorry, I'm really sorry".
Why are some person in such a hurry ?
"Let me help you out".
I bent down pick up the belongings of whoever bumped onto me.
"No, it's okay."
I looked up to see who was the person. It was Diya, the birthday girl, whose gift I was carrying around the whole campus.

"Here". I handed her her bag.
"Thanks" she smiled.
"Happy bday Diya."
"Thank you".
"You are Angad right. Parul's brother?"
"Yes"
"What is this?" she asked pointing towards the gift bag.
"Um..."now what would I say to this girl.
Where is Parul?

"There you are".
I looked to see Parul standing beside Diya.
"Thank you for the gift Bhaiya" she whispered into my ears taking the gift bag from my hand.

"Happy bday Diya" Parul wished hugging her.
"Thanks".
"Here, your gift."
"Thank you. But you don't have to do this".
"Aww, you are my best friend. I can least do this".
"Okay".
"So,this is the gift you were holding Angad?"
"Yeah... Parul left it in the car." not sure what to say.
Diya glanced at Parul.
"I just wanted to surprise you. But in hurry I forget it."
"Like I said, don't worry about the gift. But anyway, thanks you" she hugged Parul again.
"Are you coming to party tonight Parul?"
"Hell yeah, I won't miss it for the world."
"Angad, you are also coming to the party right?"
"Umm..."
"You can't say no the party. You must come to the party. After all you are my best friend's brother."
"Please bhaiya" Parul insisted.
"Let me think for a minute." I pretended to think.
Parul was glaring at me.
"Okay, okay I'm coming." I raised up my hands to surrender "and please stop looking at me like this."
"Yes,yes,yes." Parul was cheering happily.
"Okay, she you at the party then. The party starts at 8 o' clock. You can bring your friends also."
"Fine, see you tonight at the party. Bye"
"Bye."

After saying goodbye to the girls, I went to my friends.
"Hey!"
"Hey guys! You know, there is a party tonight."
"Party?" Rohan, the geek of our group asked.
"Yeah. It's Diya's birthday party."
"Diya? Diya Chopra? As I can recall there is only one Diya in our college whose birthday is today. And it is Diya Chopra." Gautam asked.
"Yeah. She invited me to her party."
"Dude, how did Diya invite you?"
"She is my sister's bestfriend."
"Dude, you are very lucky to get invited to Diya Chopra's party. You know who is she? Her father is one the biggest business tycoon of the city."
"Are you guys coming or not. Beside, I don't want to feel alone at the party."
"Alone? Dude you are the college's hottest guy. I'm sure, the girls can keep you company." Mohit said.
I rolled my eyes.
"I'm asking for the last time. You guys are coming or not?"
"I'm coming"all said in unison.
"I have never been to a rich person's house before." Mohit said.
"Okay, the party starts at 8 o'clock. See you at the party then."

After the college, I went to the jewellery shop to buy a gift for Diya. I'm a sucker at shopping. I'm not sure what she would like,so, I brought a pendent. Parul once said that she liked jewellery a lot.
I wrapped a gift paper around the box,after I reached home and went to get ready for the party.
