As soon as I reached home , I threw my bag on the floor and started grumbling "I cannot go to that school anymore , it looks like a hospital . I get suffocated over there . It looks more like a government school and the girls really get on my nerves because of their lameness . " I shouted .
"Shh , Salomi is still there . " mom said pointing at the door . I turned around and saw her talking with dad . "I hope she didn't hear anything . " I thought and then said "I really don't care even if she hears . " and went into my room and banged the door shut .
As I was lying on the bed , mom came and sat near my legs and said "Don't worry you will get adjusted and moreover its a matter of only one year . Study hard and get good marks and I promise you , I will admit you in your choice of college . Now stop sulking and come have lunch."
I had lunch , slept for a while and then sat to complete my notes . I was so drained that I had to sleep early so forgot to talk with Muss .
The next day I woke up , got dressed and went to school with Salomi . As we were sitting in the class , social ma'am entered and started her lecture . After half an hour of lecture , a girl opened the door and asked "May I come in Ma'am ? "
"You are half an hour late start coming early at least from this year . " the teacher said laughing . The girl came in and sat in the vacant seat . She was a midget , dainty girl with a round face . Her eyebrows met and she had alcoholic eyes with long curly eyelashes . Her pink plump lips went really well on her pearl white skin tone . She had a very sweet voice .
In the break time I asked Salomi who the girl was "She is Zara , one of my closest friends . "
Days went by very boring and lethargic . All I did was go to school , come back and sleep , then do my work and back to sleep , again . Very rarely I spoke with Mustafa . When I was free he would be busy and vice versa . I had started mingling with my Indian friends . Me , Salomi , Hania and Zara did very well with each other .
As it was a free period , Salomi suggested "Let's play truth or truth . "
"It is truth or dare right ? " I asked . "Our game is truth or truth . " Zara said as she rotated the bottle and it stopped at me . "Answer whatever is asked , honestly OK ? " Hania said .
Salomi whispered into Hania's ear and Hania said "I won't ask , you only ask or say Zara to ask . " After a lot of discussions and protests , finally Hania asked "Tuba , these people want to know if you have a boy friend . "
As soon as I heard this I burst out laughing . "Seriously ! You guys were struggling so much to ask this question . Yes I do have a boy friend and his name is Mustafa . " I replied still laughing .
"Are ! We thought you are a very modest and innocent girl and if we would ask you this question you might get offended . " Zara said .
"Hahaha me and decent ? You still don't know me . " I said laughing . "Even we are not decent , we just pretended in front of you . " Hania added . "Say us some thing about him . " Salomi said . "Something ? Say us everything manh ! " Zara demanded .
I had to narrate how we met and what all happened between us , I said them about Esh and Amy , then we all exchanged our Instagram Ids and snap chat usernames . Hania asked Mustafa's Id as she wanted to see his pictures .
As we all gathered our things to go home , I asked Zara "How do you go home ? "
"By walk . "
"Then why don't you come along with us ? " I suggested to which she agreed .
As we were walking , Zara asked "Do you like sour things ? "
"I love them . "
She took me to a stall and made me eat raw mango slices with red chili powder and salt . "Mmm...it's good . " I said licking my fingers .
I reached home and said to mom "The girls aren't that bad , how they seemed on the first few days . You know what we ate this....." and I narrated everything .
Life after school hours had become really boring . As I was sitting , I thought of calling Mustafa so I took mom's phone and dialed his number on IMO . We were talking and suddenly mom came and sat beside me , I thought of disconnecting the call but felt that it would make her suspicious so kept on talking . I didn't realize that the volume was high and Mustafa's voice was audible .
"Tuba ! Who's there on the phone ? " she asked suddenly and snatched it from me . Hearing mom's voice , Muss had disconnected the call . "I was talking with Amina . " I lied . "No ! You weren't talking with her , I could hear a male voice . Tell me the truth Tuba . " mom asked furiously .
"I am not lying , it was Amina only . " I said .
"If it was Amina , then why isn't she picking up the call now ? " mom said . "Forget it mom , she might be busy or the battery might be dead . " I said and went to the washroom .
I had my cell in the pocket so I messaged Amy "Bro , delete your IMO account and open a new one with Mustafa's number , and if mom asks why you weren't picking the call then say that the battery was dead , I will explain everything to you later . "
Amy was online and she did as I said . I came out and went to my mum and asked "She still didn't pick the call ? " . As she was about to reply , the phone rang as Muss had called but instead of him a girl spoke up and it was Amy . "Aunty am sorry , the battery was dead . "
"Dear are you sure this is your number ? " mom asked .
"Yes aunty , why ? What's wrong ? "
"No no nothing , I will talk to you later , bye . " mom said and hung up .
"Got peace ? " I asked sulkily as she eyed me suspiciously and walked away . I went to the washroom again and narrated the whole scenario to Amy to which she replied "What would you have done without me 😂 . Be careful Tuba and don't mess up things next time and don't expect me to cover up for you every time . "
"You are not doing any favor , it's your duty 😉❤ "
I came out , did some assignments and went to sleep .
