The next morning being a Monday was as usual full of hustle and bustle. Naina was packing her bag as well as eating her breakfast. When she moves back, she hit her leg with the dining chair but balanced herself by holding the arm of the chair, and yesterday's memories again flew in her mind - the handhold, the staring, the eyelock, the talks everything. That was one of the most pleasant and memorable day for her.


She reached the college, met swati and Preeti at the entrance and the girls headed to the class. Swati and Preeti entered the class and settled on one of the benches while naina entered as her eyes landed on him, sameer was there today in the class attending this particular lecture, he was busy in talking with his friends when someone called out, "naina" and his eyes landed towards the entrance.
He saw her beautifully dressed in a salwar suit as always, he wonders how come a girl look so beautiful even in so simple clothes, well Mr maheswari this is the charm of naina!!

Naina settled on one of the benches ahead of Preeti and swati with a girl named Shilpa. The classroom atmosphere was full of laughs and giggles, some boys sat on the tables even when the seats were vacant, throwing paper balls on each other, performing mimicry of teachers and principals whilst the girls were gossiping and discussing about their recent crushes, Preeti and swati were talking about the recent Bollywood movies and songs. Naina was busy in teaching Shilpa how to solve a particular maths problem she had.


Soon the class settled when Mr Avasti the maths teacher entered the class, he was aged man around his 60's. He was a strict person but he always behaved as a mentor for the children and really praised them. The students didn't hesitate to say anything in front of him and could share anything.


The maths lecture started and Mr Avasti started solving some questions on the basis of equations and identities. Where some children including naina were concentrated on his teaching, others like Munna, Pandit, swati and Preeti were thinking for ways to skip the class and go to the canteen to munch some snacks. Sameer at the middle was half a time looking at the blackboard an dthem other time looking at her. How focus she was, well she was a topper and no one could compete her. Well sameer was also scoring about 85% in his past exams, she was scoring above 90% and it was like a real competition. Well he didn't mind to have a competition with his wife, he blushed.


Soon as the lecture was passing, Munna Pandit swati preeti secretly moved out of the class and went directly to the canteen. The class started emptying and only naina with two three children and Sameer stayed in the room. Munna had asked sameer to accompany them but he refused saying he need to understand some trigonometric ratios. And the Two left him.


When Mr Avasti turned back to look at the class, he was shocked as well as he laughed seeing that only few children were left and the rest had bunked. He chuckled and then moved out of the class. This was the best thing of college, students can bunk, they could move freely and they could do anything they like.



When Shilpa along with her friends moved out, the class only had sameer naina inside it. Naina who was eager to talk to him came up to him and asked, "Umm.....sameer yeh ek question hai jo mujhe aa nahin rahan kya tum meri isme help kar sakte ho?"


Sameer was shocked as he never knew that topper naina would ask him any of her doubts, he happily exclaimed, "Batao kaunsa doubt hai, main tumhari madad karta hu! "

Naina showed him the question, he was happy that he knew how to solve that question. The two of them sat on the same bench, sameer explained her the question and she understood it. After 10 minutes the discussion was over and problem was solved.

When she closed her book and closed the cap of the pen she murmered, "Thank you so much sameer, tumne problem solve Kardi! "

Sameer felt proud of himself as if he had climbed Mount Everest and mentally praised himself and said, "welcome, aur koi doubt Ho toh mujhe Yaad karna! "

While Sameer continued to pack his bag, naina moved out of the class and then Shilpa blocked her way. The same time sameer also came behind naina. Naina and Shilpa didn't notice him while he observed the two. Shilpa pleadingly said, "Naina yeh question tune mujhe pichle hafte samjhaya tha Lekin main isme wapas confuse ho gyi hu, help kar de pls"
Naina with a warm smile said, "Theek hai,chal canteen chalte hai! " The two of them left from there leaving someone shocked.

Sameer was looking at the two and found that Shilpa mentioned that she was confused with a question which naina explained her last week and shockingly that was the same question which Sameer explained her.

Sameer didn't understand why she asked him but then his mind started giving his hints, she wanted to talk to him, she wanted to spend time with him and he was such an idiot, he thought that naina the topper was asking him a question. He smiled at her cute antics and then ruffled his hair and made his way to the canteen.

All the time he thought that Thsi girl who is his wife, she is very smart and clever. He chuckled how her plan had worked on him and he remained dumb.

The day was over, sun had set and students were leaving the college . Sameer was talking with Munna Pandit and was waiting for naina to go from there. When she called out an auto for the three of them, sameer looked at her actions. He knew he couldn't ask her to give a lift since her family was conservative and they were not living in the same house.
When the three girls settled inside the auto and left, Sameer heaved a sigh of relief. He had now made it as a routine to check if the girls especially naina had left for home safely or not.

--------------------------------------------*
One month had passed, few weeks were left for exams, as always the studious ones sat on the bench and prepared notes and the others were on the playground and some were in the canteen. Sameer chose to play cricket today, he and the members of his team had chose to bat first and fortunately naina came over that side with Shilpa so that they could study.

Naina as she knew that Sameer would be playing she was glad to watch his match and cheer for him, Ofcourse she could not shout loudly but at least praise him in her mind, and study was also her priority.

Sameer and Pandit chose to go at the pitch first, Sameer knew she was here and was watching him though secretly but he needs to create an impression. First impression is the last impression, he knew, but he does not need to make her drool over him, or make her fall I in love with him. He blushed again, why was this so that whenever the word love comes in his mind, he is lost somewhere, looks around shyly and all others were known with the fact that sameer Maheswari was not like the timid one. Ok this was his secret.

Naina opened her books while her eye were fixed on him. He hit a six at the first ball and the team members cheered for him, the match continued till Pandit and Sameer had scored a total of 100 runs in their partnership. And the remaining team was happy since they haven't suffered any loss till now.

The balling team took a break while Sameer and Pandit were on the ground, Pandit was chatting with a girl while Sameer was frustrated with the afternoon heat which felt like burning him. Naina sensed that he was pleasantly uncomfortable. She stood up from herllace moved towards him and entered the ground. Slowly she was taking her steps and Sameer's heart was beating rapidly. He did not know whether it was the heat or her effect on him that he was feeling like this.

She had reached towards him, her hand had a handkerchief and she wiped the sweat on his face with her own handkerchief and stared into her eyes. She was delicately rubbing the handkerchief on his cheeks whilst sometimes her fingers came into direct touch with his lips and he unknowingly kissed it. She blushed to the shade of scarlet and bit her lower lip.

The referee's horn made him come back in his senses, and he realized that naina was still sitting on her place asking him with her brows raised up if he was ok? He nodded and went back to his position.

He didn't know what was it, was it a dream or his desires? Never in his life he saw such kind of dream, was it naina's effect or he has started falling in love? Well Sameer Maheshwari is unknown to this and only time would tell what next turn their life is going to take, what was it's impact!!
