UNEXPECTED

Chapter-12

Next day our college was as silent as ever or was it my imagination?

Riya remained silent beside me. She too came to know about that incident. Always blabbering girl was now silent deep in her thoughts. We slowly moved towards our class engulfed in our own thoughts.

To my surprise Rahul was present today sitting in his desk watching us enter inside the class. It was like he knew the reason behind our silence.
We went in and sat in our places as I spoke

"Hey Rahul. You are finally here." I said with a smile.

"Yeah. I just had some business to handle." He spoke.

"Why did you come now? We are having holidays from day after tomorrow." Spoke Riya in a confusing tone.

"Yeah I know. But still I can spend two days with you guys. I have missed you all a lot." He said hugging us.

"We missed you too." We said in unison.

After that our morning classes came to an end. We were on our way to canteen. Riya kept on updating Rahul about all the incidents which he missed in these few days.
Today our college looked really different in a sad way. Though we don't know that girl. It still haunts us as this is not the first incident taking place in our campus.

We sat in our usual place joined by Inba and Nino.

"So,you finally decided to show up?" Spoke Nino eating her usual food.

"You are speaking as if you didn't miss me." He said with a smirk

"Why will I?"

"Okay. That's enough guys" said Inba looking at them.

"Look who's here." Spoke Allwyn joining us.

"I still wonder how you liked him Rose." Spoke Rahul in an irritated tone joined by laughs from the other girls.

Oh well. This was because of Riya as she told him everything!

Before I could speak Allwyn spoke
"So do you guys have any plans for holidays?"

"For me nothing." Spoke Nino.

"Why? Aren't you going home?" I asked her.

"Nope! That will be just boring."

"Yeah. So I and Nino decided to stay back and explore this place." Said Inba.

"Yup and I was the one going to show them around." Joined Riya.

What's with all of them. How can they simply forget me? Anyway I was going to go home! I think that's why they didn't include me. I thought to myself as I spoke.

"So you all forgot about me? How rude."

"As if you will stay." Said Felina.

Yes you are right. Felina was also present here. It's just that she didn't attend the morning class and she already knows about Rahul and so does he.

"Okay! Fine." I said.

"What if we all go on a trip?" Spoke Allwyn looking at all of us.

"Trip? Hey that sounds amazing." Said Rahul.

"What? Seriously? I thought you didn't like him." I said mocking at him.

"Oh yeah. But I like his idea." He said rubbing his chin.

"Hell yeah. We have to take our minds off from all these incidents. That's the best idea." Spoke Inba excitedly.

"I too agree." Joined Nino,Riya and Felina.

Now everyone's eyes were focused on me. I was blank simply staring at them.

"Guys. I have to visit my dad." I spoke.

"Yeah sure. We are having 10days Holiday's. Last 5 days you can spend with your dad. We all happy and you happy." Said Allwyn looking at me with pleading eyes.

"Now don't put such an expression. I will come." I said folding my hands.

Everyone started shouting suddenly as they came and hugged me. I simply laughed at them.

We all left it to Allwyn to decide the place. Everyone was happy that our entire Gang was going on a trip. Allwyn said that few of his friends will also be joining. No one argued and instead they all were more excited.

"So what do you think? What kind of place will he choose?" Spoke Felina while going towards our class.

"No idea." I said.

"It will sure be a nice one." Spoke Riya.

"Place doesn't matter. We will be together and we are gonna enjoy a lot  and that's all it matter's." Said Rahul smiling ear to ear.

Finally our afternoon classes came to an end. We met Allwyn outside who said that he will choose the place and make the arrangements by tomorrow. We asked him about money but he simply ignored us by saying that he is our sponsor. Funny right? We all tried to convince him but he was in no mood to listen to us.

"Bye guys. See you tomorrow." And with that he left.

Then by bidding our bye's to everyone. We reached our room.

"I have to inform my dad." I said to them sitting on my bed as I called my dad.

"Hey dear. How are you?"

"Fine dad. What about you?"

"I am fine dear. So when are you coming here?"

"Dad actually we all planned a trip for 5days. So, I will be there in a week." I said.

"Oh! That's OK dear. Just enjoy the trip and be safe." He said.

"Thank you dad."

"Oh..no need dear. Eat well and stay healthy. I will call you later."

"Ok dad. Bye take care."

"Bye dear." With that our conversation ended.

My dad is my best companion. He understands me very well and never opposes my decision rather he supports me a lot. I have to be happy to have such a supporting dad. The moment I ended the call. Inba came running towards me.

"What happened?" She asked.

"Nothing. He said OK." I said with a smile.

"Thank god. My parents agreed too." She said with a smile.

"Where is Nino?"

"Oh she..she is talking with her parents."

Just then Nino entered in looking sad.

"Guys I am leaving home tomorrow. My grandmother is not well and they need me there."

"Nothing will happen to her Nino. You just don't worry." I said hugging her joined by Inba.

"Yeah. I need to pack." She said.

We helped her in packing and then had our dinner. She said that she will be leaving early. After that I received a call from Allwyn and I told him that Nino will not be able to come.

"Oh that's OK Rose. She can join us later if she wishes."

"I hope so." I said.

"So which place did you choose?"

"Nah..I will not say. That's a surprise which will be only relieved tomorrow."

"Come on. Please tell me. I don't like surprise's." I said.

"Noway sweetheart. Anyways go and sleep. Its already late..I love you." He said.

The moment he said it I was in cloud nine.

"I love you too. Good night." I managed to say.

"Good night sweetheart." With that the call ended as I fell asleep.
