I turned back and resumed my seat. Oh god! I was relieved to hear her fading footsteps.
Not wanting to get disturbed again , I closed my eyes but my fav song faded ringing from my phone sounded like a time bomb ticking.
With a frusrated sigh I picked up the phone and saw a unknown number. Without giving a second thought i pressed the green button, I just wanted to be done with it and go back relaxing.

But my dearest lord had other plans for me. This was a phone call which changed my ringtone and my life.

"Hello" I said with a hint of irritation.

"Are you Nihaal?" Voice of a girl. Not bad.

"Yes, its me" I was excited. The reason was too silly. But I always fantasised loving a girl online. I used to read a lot of novels and many met their girls through a phone call. I almost imagined the girl on the other side. The voice was soft , so may be she is cute and...

I was cut off from my thoughts by a sharp voice "What the hell does your brother think" Oh my god! She was literally yelling.

I had to give a second thought about the voice being soft, but wait , why my brother?

I was again pulled from my thoughts. "Does he even know what harm he is causing?" some more yelling.

"Woah! Woah! Wait there.Who are you? How do u even know me? What were you talking about my brother and most importantly why are you shouting at me." I said in a single breath, but come on , you can't blame me. I was already having a tired time and suddenly I get a call from an unknown no. , and the person turns out to be a girl, (hopes high and not to forget-a sweet voiced girl) , and then she out of the blue starts screaming. I mean give me a second bro , cut me some slacks man!

"Oh! Dont talk as if you don't know" I could literally feel her spitting on my face.

Aaucchhh it hurts

"Hey girl! Liste.."

She cut me off. "Oh hello"

Wow! My phone , my voice , my thoughts , still can' t even complete one damn sentence. Another 'gentle' reminder of advantages of being single.

"Manners man" She spoke again

Wait! What? Manners? Was I not respectful enough? My god! I made a mental note to break one coconut in temple to thank my lord for keeping me single.
(In India people break coconuts in temples as a way of saying thanks to god)

"But I guess I was..." again a failed attempt to complete one sentence.

"Listen to me carefully. I am Amy's sister and that too elder one. Ask your brother to be in limits or else we are heading for a police complaint"

What! Are you kidding me? Police? My brother?

"But excuse me , who is Amy and why my brother is invol..."

"Ask your so called brother" She was screaming. Again.

This time I didn't make any 'failed' attempt to speak.

"See Mr. , I am damn serious about the police complaint, its not a lame threat. I am Amy's elder sister and well a final engineering student. I have good contacts, so I feel you are a sensible guy and I hopefully assume you dont want your brother in jail. So ask him to leave Amy alone or the worst is yet to come"

"Hey, I mean , first..."

Beep. Beep .Beep

What? Was is it a conversation? I mean a conversation is between two people and I couldn't hear anyone other than that girl talking. Oh!Sorry.... Screaming with complementry spitting. And yet they talk about girl power. If girls like her multiplies, soon there will be slogans like 'men power', 'Save men! Save earth'.

But how did she know my brother and most importantly, who is Amy? and what is my bro's connection with Amy?

Can anyone of you guess , what could have happened between his brother and that Amy. Do you think phone call girl is The girl of his dreams?
