Why am I here? (Complete)

Chapter 17

Rajveer approached Yudi with an amused smirk on his face. MN and MB covered in Yudi's vomit was the best scene of the day. He was followed by Dr. Shalini. "That was.... a different approach to win a fight," Rajveer commented joining super six.

"Hey, sir! Did you see? I won!" Yudi told him excitedly.

Rajveer laughed. "Yes. That was a brilliant strategy," he patted Yudi on the shoulder.

"And disgusting," Dr. Shalini added with a huff. "Are you feeling alright, Cadet Yudi? Does your stomach hurt?" She inquired.

"No, ma'am. I'm feeling much better," Yudi beamed at her.

"You should go, take a shower and brush your teeth," Naina advised.

"Cadet Singh is right. Aur agar apki tabiyat kharap lage to infirmary me chale ana," Shalini told him.

" Okay, ma'am," Yudi replied before excusing himself.

"Waise aisi idea Cadet Yudi ko aya kaise?" Shalini wondered aloud.

"Idea bhale hi Yudi ka tha, par kamal Rehnuma ka tha, ma'am," Huda told her.

"Matlab?" Rajveer asked.

"She had told us this morning that we should do whatever we have to do to win in the ring. That koi dost nehi hai us ring ke andar," Huda informed.

"She's a good friend," Shalini stated nodding her head. "Waise, kya sach me Cadet Aalekh aur Cadet Rehnuma ki shaadi ho chuki hai?" She asked, eager for gossip. "When did they start dating?"

"Unki chakkar to Fresher ball ki ek din pehle se shuru huya tha. Aur fir Diwali ki vacation ke time un dono ne shaadi karli," Huda informed.

"How exciting!" Shalini grinned.

That afternoon when all the classes were done, I headed to the infirmary. I needed some special pills for protection as Aalekh and I seemed to get overexcited all the time. 😅

I discovered Dr. Ritu with Dr. Shalini. She was telling Shalini that she would be gone from the academy for a few days. "Hopefully, your absence will make Captain miss you?" Shalini suggested.

"I hope you're right, Shalini. Warna Captain to mujhe palat ke bhi nehi dekhte," Ritu pouted.

Rolling my eyes, I knocked on the door. "May I come in?"

"Cadet Rehnuma! Come, come," Shalini greeted me excitedly.

I raised my eyebrows at her. "Mujhe dekh ke itna excited to mere pati bhi nehi hote jitna aap ho rahe hai, Dr. Shalini," I commented with a teasing smile.

Dr. Ritu chuckled while Shalini huffed. "Hone diziye na mujhe excited. Pata hai apki shaadi ki news kitni romantic hai? Hayee! Academy ka pyaar aur fir chup chup ke shaadi!" Shalini squealed.

"Apke shaadi ke baat se Shalini thori jyada hi khush hai," Ritu told me, sardonically. "Main chalti hu. Mujhe nikal na bhi hai seminar ke Liye, " she said before leaving.

"Ritu kitni sweet hai na? Captain Rajveer ke saath...."

I interrupted, "...bilkul bhi achse nehi lagenge."

"Kya?! Kyu?" Shalini asked defensively.

"Ma'am, Ritu ma'am kitni hot hai. Unhe koi prince hi suit karega. Rich, bold, dashing, and stylish. Rajveer sir to simple sa banda hai. Unse Ritu ma'am jaisi pataka suit nehi karega. Unke liye koi simple si larki chahiye jiske liye sir uski puri duniya hogi aur jo sir ke liye unka sabkuch hoga," I told her with a smile.
