DQ#1 Thousand Reasons Why

Tom And Jerry

Aradhya's POV

" Chhoti, main meeting k liyee late ho rahi hoon. Jaldi karo, Mai tumhe school drop ker dungi. (Chhoti, I am getting late for my meeting. Hurry up. I will drop you at school)." I heard Dee's voice from downstairs. I was just shoving everything in my bag. I couldn't wake up earlier today.

" Hogyi Dee, baas aarahi hoon. Tum niklo, main buss ayi. (Almost done, Dee, I am just coming. You go out, I will be following you) I said.

I checked if I have taken everything. If I have forgotten anything or not. Last night we were watching movies. Our favorite movies. After so long. I don't remember when I have slept but it was definitely very late. That's why I couldn't wake up in time. I am still very sleepy.

I went downstairs and found Mom having coffee. I had a glass of juice and grab a sandwich. I finished it in two bites and took the water bottle. Mom was looking at me weirdly.

" Iwummllavcgcdvvvv." I said to Mom and she rolled her eyes.

" Bad manner, Ari. Don't talk when you have food in your mouth." She said. I gulped down and drank a few sips of water.

" I am late. Bye, maa." I kissed on her cheek and ran out of the house. I ran to catch Dee.

" Dee." I caught her awhile later. She chuckled. I was catching my breath.

" Door thik sai lock kiya na tumne? (Have you locked the door properly)?" She asked me.

" Mom is still there at home. No worries." I said and linked my arm with her

" Agar aaj Main late huyi na, to samjho meri nokri gyi.(If I am late today then no one can save my job.) She said and I chuckled.

" Nahi jayegi." (You won't get fired) I said.

" Aur yesa kyun?(And why is that?) She asked me. I chuckled.

It's been almost a month that she has shifted here. We were talking about her boss lately. I think her boss that same arrogant and short tempered boss has developed some feelings for her. I think he likes her which she is considering as his kindness. I think it's not just kindness.

" Yesa tumhari boss k liye." ( Because of your boss) I said smirking at her.

" Unko Kya hua?" (What's with him?) She asked me.

" Tumhe sach Mai nahi paata aur tumhe abhi taak samajh nahi aye?" (You really don't know or you haven't realized that yet?) I asked her.

" Kya?"( What?) She asked me narrowing her eyes.

" Woh tumhe nokri sai nahi nikalega, kabhi bhi nahi." (He won't fire you, not now not ever) I said to her. I chuckled.

" Tumhe kaise paata?" (How do you know?) She asked me rolling her eyes.

" Mujhe baas paata hai." (I just know that) I said winking at her.

" Wohi to main pooch rahi hoon kaisy?" (Exactly, that's what I am asking, how?) She asked me being confused. I chuckled.

" Baas paata hai." (Just know that) I said.

" Ok, Meri maa, maat bol. Tujhe to kuch bhi pooch na bekar hai. Khamaka waqt barbaad." She said.(Ok, don't tell. No use of asking you but wasting time.)

" Agar maine saach mai bol diya to mujhe jutay padenge abhi." (If I tell you this now I will be beaten) I said and she looked at me narrowing eyes.

" Kya paak rahi hai dimaagh main, haan?" (What's in your brain?) She asked me holding my ear.

" Kuch bhi to nahi."(Nothing at all). I said smiling innocently trying to save my ear from her. She narrowed her eyes even more. Then shook her head letting my ear go.

" Dee, mere bus agye. Tum office chali jao, Mai aaj school bus se hi chali jaungi." (Dee, my bus has arrived. You go to office. I will go school by school bus today.) I said and she smiled. She hugged me and I ran to the bus. She was walking away then I called her.

" Dee?" I called her and she turned to see me.

" Tum pooch rahe thay na k kyun tumhare boss tumhe nokri se nahi nikalenge?" (You were asking that why your boss won't fire you.) I asked her and she nodded. I waited for a second and when I heard the bus started I smirked at her and she get confused at my expression. I gave her a mischievous smirk.

" Cause, Dee, he loves you." I shouted my lungs out and she was shocked.

I chuckled. The bus moved far from her. She was still standing there confusedly. I smiled. A beautiful feeling to be loved. I closed my eyes leaning back on the seat. I was sleepy again. I needed sleep. Who knows if I sleep in the class!!! There was a few students in the bus. Most of the students of my school belong to rich families. They have their own vehicles. They don't have to use the bus.

" Hey, Ari." I opened my eyes and found Susan.

" Hi, Susan. What a pleasant surprise!!! You are in the bus today?" I asked her.

" Why?!! Can't I be in the school bus?" She asked me.

" I haven't said that. You have your car." I said.

" I was feeling to use the school bus today." She said and I nodded.

" Oh. Ok." I said and she talked to me for awhile then we reached the school.

I got down from the bus. I was really very sleepy. God save me today from getting a detention. And there is Mrs. Greene who is pressuring us to stage the play. I mean why is she doing that to us?!! Her drama club members can do it. She said that she will not take no as an answer.

" I will be there." I heard Asher's voice and turned to see him talking to his teammates. There is a match this evening. I am really very excited. I waited for Asher.

" Hi." I said to him as he stood before me.

" Hi." He said smiling a bit.

" Where is Ardeyn today?" I asked him.

" He found Juliet awhile back and..." He said and I chuckled. And they started to fight. What will we do with this Tom and Jerry kids!!!
