"Nhi abhi sir ne message kiya hai group mein ki vo thoda late ayeinge".
I mouthed an "okay" and looked at the girl who was earlier talking with Trisha.

"Ye Ruhi hai", Trisha informed me as she kept a hand on her shoulder.
I passed her a warm smile and forwarded my hand ," I am Varsha Sinha".
"Ruhi Dixit", she said as she held my hand.
"So tumhara bhi presentation hai kya?", I initiated the conversation.
"Haan, abhi ye mat puchna ki mera academic year kaun sa hai.."
"Kyun??", I asked with a frown.
"Because ye hamari batch mate hai", Trisha said.
"Kya baat kar rhi ho!?. Maine to aaj tak tumhe nhi dekha!!", I exclaimed.
"Yaar ab kya bataun...main last year ai hi nhi college...ek to lambe time tak ka jaundice ho gya aur phir mera ghar bhi college se bhout dur hai...abhi to shukra banao ki metro ban gai hai varna iss saal bhi nhi apati".
"Haan vo sab to thikh hai par tab bhi...ek saal tak college nhi ai??", I asked in disbelief.
Ye pakka se mazak kar rhi hai.
"Yakin na ho to dekh lo...ek medical ki photocopy hai mere paas".
"Arey thikh hai koi nhi...", I said.
******************************
(Same evening)
Orange sky mein vo teen chaar patange ek dusre ki dor katne ki koshish kar rhi thi.
"Tumhari baaton se lag rha hai ki ye Ruhi kaafi cool hai.." , bhai patang ki dor ko dhil dete hue bole.
Unhone ek second ke liye bhi apni nazar asman se nhi hatai.
Unki blue kite aur ek black kite ke bich aar ya paar jaisi ladai chal rhi thi.
"Bhai vo super cool hai...I mean she is just one of her kind".
Maine patang ki dori wali reel pakdi thi ( I don't know use roll ko exactly kehte kya hai... please kisi ko pta ho to comment karke bata dio...)
"So you are....aur zara dheel do!!".
"Aap bhi single piece ho...", I sarcastically said.
"Thanks chotu...both for the dheel and for the compliment".
Bhai ne apni kite ko uss black kite se dur kiya.
Sure he is going to win.
Life is so unpredictable.
Aaj maine ek baat realize ki, agar koi chaheti cheez hamse dur ho jaye tab koi aur acchi aur better cheez hame mil jaati hai.
Ab jaise mere first year academic year wale dost, Kajal aur Riya, dono meri acchi dost thi but dono hostlers aur class khatam hone ke baad sidhe apne hostle chali jaati thi, aur main akeli pad jaati thi.
Tab chill karne main ek empty classroom mein jaati thi. That was my favourite place.
Phir Nitin aur Aditya se dosti hui.
Tab bhi sahi tha.
Then Trisha ki entry hui aur uske baad aaj mera favourite classroom change ho gya.
I was sad because vo classroom ek terhe se meri colleg life ka hissa ban gya tha.
But now jab main Ruhi se mili, tab I felt like I am completed.
Like jaise mera koi trio complete ho gya.
Infact aaj hame chill karne ke liye philosophy department mein ek nhi balki do classrooms mil gaye.
Mujhe aisa lag rha hai ki ab koi aur sath rahe ya na rhe...ye dono mere sath hamesha raheingi.
Agar khuch azeez chala gya, then usse bhi zyada azeez aur beshkimti hame mil gya...
Kya naam doon main iss yaari ko???
"Kai Po Che!!"
Bhai screamed as he finally won.
That black kite was going down, without any rope and blue one was dancing with joy in the sky...
I looked at both the dancing one and drowning one and smiled.
Yes that's the word....Kai Po Che !!!....
