A Love-tale in Lovedale.

Part 4: Shraddha - The pharmacy student

Shraddha is a sweet & simple girl, who was in her 1st year of pharmacy course in a college in Ooty. She was born & brought up there. Her father works in a bank & her mother is a home maker. She has a sister too, who was in 12th grade in school.

One day Shraddha, with her few friends, decided to go to the very famous 'Dog show' in Ooty, which is being conducted every year. Then they spent time on a restaurant and decided to return Lovedale, by train. And so, they bought 6 tickets & came by train.

Here Arya, came to his brothers book shop, after spending his entire first day at home.

(Arya usually calls his brother Dharshan as 'D' or as 'bro'
While, Dharshan calls Arya as 'Aari' or as 'bro' as well)

Arya: "D..?? Do people still come to book shops to buy books.??"

"Then.. what you thought?? They go to fish market to buy books.. huh??" Dharshan replied on a funny note.

"Hey bro.. I meant to ask, Do people still buy books to read, at the book shops.. when they can easily buy them online or even read them or buy their digital copies as e-books?" he clarified.

"Huh.. huh .. but not as much as before. Yet, there are still large number of people who buy books at stores & especially elder people" he explained & further said, "I don't do this for just profit, I like doing this. I feel this is one of the peaceful of jobs in the world & of course! By doing this, I get access to a great variety of books".

Arya: "Yup.. that's my brother.. atleast you in our family give importance to passion more than profession.. gud.. keep doing it.."

Dharshan: "haha.. Ya, I will.. for sure..

Arya: "Hmm.."

"Go.. take my bike & roam around some places Aari.. get some fresh air.. Go.." said Dharshan forwarding his bike key to Arya.

"Yea.. yea.., I will go after some time" replied Arya.

"Hmm.. here is the key.. just take them & go, whenever you want.." said Dharshan placing the keys on the table.

Arya: "Hmm.. Ok k"

(Saying this Arya came out & stood outside, just to look around the happenings in the town out there, by humming some song slowly..)

At 11.30 in the morning:

There came Shraddha along with her five friends, out of the Lovedale Railway Station, by laughing & talking to one another, about their experiences.

Arya's vision fell on them & as all boys do, he just sighed them & Shraddha who was wearing a white Anarkali dress, captured his attention the most.

They then got on a bus & left the place.
And Arya, continued to look elsewhere & the moment was over.

He them came in & took the bike key &

"Bro.. I'm going out.. if u need something or the bike,.. call me. I'll return" he said in a loud voice, so that it reaches his brother.

Dharshan: "Ya.. ya.. bye.. be careful"

(And Arya took his brother's RX 100 & left, to some nice place where their is just peace & nature..)
