Chapter 6: THE 'TOP' TROUBLE

RING RING RING RING

I checked the watch and it was 5 minutes past 12. I hurried up to pick up the phone. Somewhere inside my mind I prayed to God that its Naina's call.

"Hello" I said.

"Hello..." a voice of a male answered. All of a sudden I got disappointed and a nano-second later, I got excited that at least someone called me.

"Happy Birthday hero...." he said again.

"Ohh.....Apurv.....Thankyou yaar." I replied. I never expected a call from his side. Now let me tell something about Apurv. Basically, Apurv was my school class-mate. Also, he was my bench-mate from 3rd standard. And what more, he was my best friend. But still, I don't know why I didn't use to share my personal affairs with him. Although, I'd figure out a satisfactory reason for it:

My school life had different dimensions. School was a place where I was a 'hero', mainly because I was good in studies. So I never wanted to tell my school-friends, my problems and to appear like an under-confident boy.

We talked for over 15 minutes. He asked me if I am celebrating my birthday for which I refused. After the call ended, I went to sleep. I was thoroughly satisfied, because at least someone called me up tonight.

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************

AT TUITION:

I was not at all interested in celebrating my birthday. I guess all parties are more or less the same. People come, eat and go. Thats it. But on the urge of 'Karun and company', I decided to give a mini-treat to them. I called up Karun to escort me to market.

We bought some snacks, colddrinks, icecream etc. and beheaded for tuition. Karun appeared so excited as if he'd got a free subscription of penthouse for a year. Basically, after spending 4 months with him, I'd figure out that Karun was a different kind of boy.

First of all, I noticed he had absolutely no interest in girls which is an expceptional case for a boy. He had his own world and opinion of looking things. I'd never seen him frustrated or tensed. Although, he was a bit irritating sometimes, but nevertheless, he was an appealing boy.

It was nearly dark when we reached tuition. In winters days are short. As soon as I entered room, I experienced three different kinds of smells or better to say 'perfumes', one each from Giya, Rini and Rupal. They were dressed in a way that it was their birthday not mine. I took the farthest seat from the girls.

"Happy Birthday ...!!!!", all of them screamed.

"Thanks." I replied and shook hands with each of them simultaneously flinched my nose. I am not sure, but I guess I had developed an allergy with perfumes.

"So lets start, where's the cake??" Giya said looking at me.

"Ohh god, we forgot to get a cake." Karun howled. I also got surprised how I forgot such an important thing.

"Anyways, doesn't matters....lets open this large coke bottle and sing birthday cheers." Rupal said. I blessed her intelligence. Its not everyday you get to hear such intelligent things from a girl.

So Karun stood up and shook the coke bottle vigorously with his hands in a fashion which reminded me of something I would not like to mention here. But if you've got it, my job is done. He did it in such a way that it got spilled up on all our clothes, walls, floor. I thanked god for Nitu Di was not in here. Otherwise, she would have fired us from here.

Everyone sang the birthday song. And then the so-called 'mini-party' started.

The next half an hour went gossiping about one another. The best thing was that none of us mentioned 'Naina'. I looked at Giya, she was my first-crush. I saw her for the first time on my first day at Nitu Di's tution. Giya was a year senior to me, and thats why I respected her a lot. She was not so-stylish as other girls, but she had a nice toned body radiating a healthy luminescence. Her best feature was her long-long hairs and her mesmerizing eyes.

"Hey Himanshu.....!!!" Rini who was now sitting beside me whispered in my ear as she noticed me staring Giya, "What are you looking at??"

"No na.....nothing."

"Ohhoo....really?? I don't think so." Rini said again with such a tone which reminded me of my mom. She liked to tease me for Giya's name.

I spoke nothing.

She stood up, "Hey friends, I have got one latest news for you people......".

As soon I realised she's gonna tell this to everyone, I reacted instantaneously. I don't know why, but my hand reached her top to hold it and made her sit again. She got annoyed and started to pull my shirt. Others started to laugh.

"Now this is enough...!" I said and stood up. She acted quicker than me and ran outside the room towards the main gate.

"You.!!!! Wait I m coming." I shouted and ran to chase her.

I was at least half-a-metre away from her when I stretched my hand to catch her. More unexpectedly, my hand caught her top again. I don't know how it happened, but due to our momentom, we couldn't control ourselves and hit the main gate and fell down. My hand was still holding her top which I noticed was torn away all round exposing her whole back including her pink-coloured bra.

For a while, I got shocked and stabilised myself to understand the situation. Why such nasty incidents occur to me always?? Rupal, Giya reached to Rini, who by now, appeared totally numb after this. Giya gave her 'dupatta' to cover Rini, while Karun was standing besides me trying to understand and figure out how it happened.

I cursed the 'textile industry' in my mind for manufacturing such a bad-quality fabric which couldn't stand even a minor strain of my hand.

While I was planning a rubbish to file a 'court case' against textile-industry, suddenly, I saw someone approaching me. What worse, it was my mom. I was spellbound and frozen up. I felt like I have gone in 'coma'. I tried to move, but my feets didn't respond.

Before I could react, my mom got the idea of the situation. It had appeared like I have committed a 'rape attempt' against Rini. Giya, Rupal took Rini inside the room while Karun and me were still standing out there to wait for some reaction from my mom's side.

Karun opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, I heard my mom saying:

"COME HERE RIGHT NOW......!!!!"

.............................{Rest continued in Chapter 7}

Chapter 5

"Hello" a voice came, I knew it was Naina.
"Hi Naina, Himanshu here." I said cautiously.
"Hiee Himanshu, How are you? Where you have been?" she said. My experience says whenever a girl asks two or more questions at once, it means she didn't need answers to any of them. Besides, I sensed a bit of uninterestingness in her voice.

"Hey first you tell me, is your mom nearby the phone?" I said. This was the most important question of the conversation.

"No dear, she's in office. You called up at the right time."

"Thank god." I sighed, "So tell me, are you fine? ... I mean, after that day." I asked.

"Ohh!! yeh.. Although mom has become too strict these days." she replied. Her mom was a real villain for sure.

"God, then how'll I meet you?" I exclaimed sounding disappointed.

"Why you have to meet me Mr.?" she replied in a strict tone. I realised she was serious. Obviously, I wasn't expecting such an answer of my question.

"Umm...well..aah...we are friends naa.... and I really enjoy your company." I answered. This was all I managed to say because my mind stops working when I talk to my crushes.

"Listen Himanshu, yes we r friends, but the things have changed now, see.... yes I do like being with you, but...won't it'll be OK if we just .... you know...what I mean..??" she said.

I realised things have messon up by now. I got shocked and stucked to say anything. The game was over for me. Now the only fight was to save a little self-prestige in front of her.
Somehow I managed to end the conversation. Blaahh Blaah.....everything went wrong. She doesn't even want to meet me. Oh God......why it happens to me everytime. Now see, since I've stepped in my teen-age, it never happened to me that a girl liked me ... you know...in that sense.

Yes, I was an above-average and so called 'bright' student, but who cares!! At least girls don't..!

As an average guy in terms of looks, I am used to these sorts of things. I mean what's wrong in it???? Why a so-called 'hot' girl would waste a time with a boy like me? If I were a girl, I would have never dated me.

"FUCK.........!!!" I shouted and banged table. I became numb soo I stood still for a few minutes near the phone and then decided to go for a sleep. I usually do two things when I am very upset or happy:
Firstly, I go for sleep or secondly, I watch some emotional scenes of my favourite movie "Kal Ho Naa Ho." There's one more thing special about "Kal Ho Naa Ho" and that is the name of Preity Zinta in the movie is also 'Naina'.
****************************************************************************
AT TUITION:
I went tuition before time and was upset sitting alone in the room when I realised Rupal has arrived. Although Rupal was a nice and caring friend but she was a PTBS girl and I hated her for this reason. Now you must be wondering what does this 'PTBS' means! Soo PTBS stands for "Pretending To Be Sexy". It was a codeword developed by Karun and me. PTBS is a special 'species' of girls who are not sexy but they 'pretend' to appear like 'sexy' by their dresscode, style, attitude etc.

And sorry to say Rupal was one of them. She was a little more than 5'2" tall and had an average looks. But she used to wear skirts, low-waists, sleeveless etc. in tuition as if she was trying to make us fan of her. Rupal had an attitude of a 'queen' and I think the main reason for this was the long queue of boys lagging behind her. She was damn popular among her school and colony boys.

Girls like Rupal classify boys into two categories: 'Handsome' and 'Non-Handsome'. And their behaviour and attitude towards a boy depends on the category to which the boy belongs.
Hey...now don't make an idea of how she used to treat me?? Even I am alsoconfused about it.
Anyways, lets return to the point. When she entered she was already talking to someone in her cell-phone. She was wearing a skirt (made up of some velvet kind of material), which was well above her knees. She had nice legs but I didn't care. I flinched and went outside the room. But still I could hear her cellphone conversations:

"Soo what can I do???" Rupal said in her as usual PTBS tone, "See Ruchi, I don't care what he has done and tell this to him also."

I guessed this was again a "Boy Case". It happens every week to Rupal. Every now and then, some boy would propose Rupal and after being ignored would create some nuisance to drag the attention of Rupal again. I realised I've started to feel jealous with her. How lucky she was?? At least a million times than me..!

"Hey Himanshu.... what happened?? Why are you standing outside??" Again two questions simultaneously and this time by Rupal whose phone talk was over by now.

"Umm...just thought you are talking something personal..." I replied in a nervous tone.

"Soo what? You are my friend."

"Ohh really..! Thanks." I howled. A PTBS girl as a friend is better than no friend at all.

"Hey you seem a bit upset. What happened??" She asked again. See this is the thing for which I loved Rupal. She was a caring and concerned friend.

"Nothing yaar....just a bit stressed up. Thats it.!" I replied. I didn't want to tell her about the incident and to sound like a loser.

"Really? Are you sure it has nothing to do with Naina???" She spoke again. Now see this thing about girls, they always press your wrong nerve and I still don't know how they locate it so precisely. Soo finally I decided to tell her everything.

In the meantime Rini also entered the room and therefore I had to start the story again from the beginning. And after a few minutes Karun.

"Ohh she's a bitch." Rini uttered as I finished.

"Hey shut up yaar." Rupal howled and placed her hand on her thigh. I looked at her skirt again and became more depressed.

"We must now think what should we do next..?" she said again acting as if she's a space scientist working on some 'alien project' in NASA.

"Nothing." This was Karun's turn, "Absolutely nothing at all."

"What??"

"Yeah, see Himanshu....", he held my hand as if was going to propose me for some gay relationship, "Why you are wasting your time and energy on a girl who consider you unworthy of her?? I guess you should forget her yaar."

"May be you are right." I said. For the first time in my life, Karun's rubbish-sayings seemed important to me.

"And one more thing", he said again, "There exists a life beyond girl-friends which is also enjoyable."
"Yeh, a life of boy-friends." Rini exclaimed. Everyone laughed this time including me.

"Soo before Nitu Di comes lets quickly decide how we are going to celebrate Himanshu's birthday...! It has to be a real special." Karun said.

And after that everyone started to discuss it as if they were going to arrange my marriage not my birthday. Who says, I am not lucky??? I've got such a nice group of friends. I decided that I won't think about Naina again in my life. Although, I was not sure I would be able to do that.
****************************************************************************
THE 'TOP' TROUBLE
Unlike today, I used to sleep before 10 pm those days. But I was awake till 12 midnight on my birthday eve for a slightest possibility of someone calling and wishing me. And finally....the phone rang..
RING RING RING RING
I checked the watch and it was 5 minutes past 12. I hurried up to pick up the phone. Somewhere inside my mind I prayed to God that its Naina's call.
"Hello" I said.

"Hello..." a voice of a male answered. All of a sudden I got disappointed and a nano-second later, I got excited that at least someone called me.

"Happy Birthday hero...." he said again.

"Ohh.....Apurv.....Thankyou yaar.".

Chapter 4 - Twist # 1

TWIST NO. 1:
We reached there in 10 min. Although her home was just 3 kms., but I tried to drove as slow as I can, so that I could enjoy more pleasing moments.

She told me to drop her at Piya's house which was a 100 metre away from her home. As I stopped bike, I saw an aunty coming outside the main gate. She stopped as she saw us. Naina screamed in my ear: "Oh My GOD!!! Mom!!!!!!!!"

My heartbeat stopped at once. Naina's mom saw us together. Oh God!!...I got stucked, while the situation of Naina was even more critical. I think she got frozen up as she continued to clinch my hand. Her mom stood silently 10 ft. away from us as if she's waiting for some reaction from our side.

Finally, I reacted by putting bike into side-stand.

"Naina, come here right now!!!" her mom shouted. Naina followed the instructions. Someone had told me once that when you are in deep shit, keep your mouth shut. So I remained standing there silently.

"Mom, meet my friend Himanshu." she said in a trembling voice. Certainly, I would have liked to be introduced in a better way. At least not like this.

"Yeah, I can see very well. So what were you doing with him?"

"Umm...mom we just went to 10 No. market to purchase books."

"Ohh!! so where's the book?"

"Well... mom..it is out of stock. Bookseller said it'll be in stock again in a month."

"Hmmmmm....." her mother moaned. I was sure she knew we were lying. She approached towards me. I tried to stand as sober as I can.

"Namaste Aunty." I howled trying to sound polite. She didn't replied but stared me as if I am some rapist or something. I hate when people give such nasty expressions to me.

"I can sense some bigger issues here." she said firstly looking towards me and then towards Naina, "See I don't want you to meet again with Naina in future. I think you got my word."

"Aunty, you are getting it wrong." I wailed.

"I don't want to listen anything. It seems this generation is misusing the freedom given to them." she replied in a strict tone. I realised the things are over by now, so I decided to leave.


While on my way, I was just thinking of Naina's. She had still lot much to face from his mom. Why these 'Mummies' have to overprotect their girl. I mean when they were young, had no one asked them ever for a date. Well that's none of my business. Anyways, it was certainly a mixed day. I was wondering whether I'll be able to meet Naina again.
********************************************************************************************************************************************************
AT TUTION:

"Soooooo... what now?" Karun asked. His 'sooooo' was at least 4 seconds long. Besides Rini, Rupal and Giya, Karun was also a coaching mate. The thing that I hated the most about Karun is that he never participates in any discussion, but suddenly starts to ask nasty questions without any previous knowledge of the situation.

"Hey, stop it Karun. How could he know - 'what now'?" Rini replied trying to protect me as if I am some 10 year child.

"Okays, okays...hey Himanshu I've got to ask one last question to you..Please...." he opened his mouth again. His teeth were snow white. Infact everything about Karun was good. He was tall, handsome, had a good physique with nice sense of humour as bonus. In short he was a complete "take me to bed" package for girls. May be that's why I always felt jealous with him.

There was only one thing common in Karun and me and that was our craziness for IIT and girls...! But still I was jealous..

"Ask." I replied totally uninterested.

"See, you are out of the game, so I was asking for her address & telephone no. soo that I could also try for her once. What do u think?"

"You bastard. Go to hell." I shouted. Everyone laughed at Karun's comment. It was their 'entertainment-topic' of the day. Nitu di who was busy in preparing a test paper for us looked out of her book to see what happened. I assured her everything is fine. At least everything was fine outside.....!
********************************************************************************************************************************************************
TWO MONTHS LATER:
Its November. Winters have started. I really hate winters for two reasons:

Firstly, days are short in winters. So as soon as you realise, your day is over.
Secondly, in winters, all hot girls stop wearing capris, low waists, sleeveless.

I am more concerned about the second one. Anyways, lets get back to the point. Soo... its November, my birthday month. For the last two months I have never attempted to contact Naina, nor did she. But since my b'day is approaching, my hopes came alive.

I was not sure if Naina knew about my birthday, so I finally decided to pre-inform her about it. Soooo...after collecting a lot of courage, I called her after 2 months on Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday because it was a working day so there was a good chance that her mom was in office and she'll be alone in home.

"Hello" voice came, I knew it was Naina.

"Hi Naina, Himanshu here." I said cautiously.

.....continued in Chapter 5...!!

Chapter 3

I reached there and to my surprise she was already sitting there. She stood up as she saw me. Oh my god!! only males can understand why your heart starts beating fast when a sexy girl stares you. I controlled my eyes to look into her eyes only, although there were much better things to see. This time her beautiful body was inside an orange top and a blue capry. The top was so tight on her body that a perfect outline of her bra was visible to me. I must say she had sexy legs which I noticed for the first time as she wore a capry. Anyways, we sat. I adjusted myself as I was already uncomfortable.

"So, Hi!!" I said slowly surely to start the conversation while she was staring the flowers in my hand.
"Hi!! hmmm.. nice place." she said.
"Flowers for you." I stood up again and stretched my hand to give her the flowers, which she accepted with great pleasure.
"So wats up, anything new?" I asked and simultaneously called a waiter to give the order.
"Nothing... u tell?" she replied and adjusted her hair. I must tell you Naina had got shoulder-length beautiful hairs.

I placed the order and then paused for a moment to think how to continue the conversation. You knw, its not everyday you get a chance to sit wid a hot girl.

"So, still upset about that call?" she asked.
"Nah.. " I said trying to sound confident although my tone completely reflected that I am not.
"But your face says you are upset." she said. You know I never understand where these girls learn to give such nasty comments.

The next 10 minutes went boring except the moments when Naina adjusted her top . Now see this is a very complicated procedure. Firstly, she starts adjusting it from backside by pulling it downwards. Then she repeats this procedure to sidewards and then finally in the front side. And you know as soon as she removes her hand, the top goes back to its initial position. I think doing this objectionable activity has two advantages to a girl:

Firstly, it gives the expression that the girl doesn't want to expose, its only her 'top's' fault.
Secondly, it drives the attention of the boys sitting there, which means even better exposure.

"You know I lied to my mom to come here, otherwise she won't have allowed." She whispered cautiously.
"Really??... what did u tell her?" I asked trying to sound interested although I was not.
"I told that I am going to meet Piya."
"But Piya's home is very near to you, didn't your mom asked why you are going with your scooty?"
"Nah, that's the problem naa..... I didn't come with my scooty. I really went to Piya's and she gave me lift for here."
"Ohh!! so how you are going to return back?"
"Of course with you. Don't tell me you are not going to drop me to home." she said. Now how should I thank God for this. You know, I've never got a luck to make a girl sit with me on my bike.
"Yeh.... sure." I said in a sober tone although my heart inside was dancing.

The next half an hour we talked things of no importance. She, as usual, talked about her only: she is planning to buy a puppy; she hates the face of her bro's gf; her mom has put several restriction on her these days etc.While, I was watching her eating the icecream. Her tongue licking her chocolate coated lips..... ummmm.... the scene was too erotic. I wished I could help her doing that. Once she noticed me and smiled. But I can't help.

"So, lets leave." I said finally.
"Ok." She said and stood up. "I am waiting for you outside." She said again.
"Wait!", I said , "Where are you going, who will pay the bill?" I yelled.
"What? You don't know girls never pay the bill." She replied trying to sound proud, although she was surprised.
"Hey, I am not your boy-friend. So why should I pay your bill!! Come on lets share it 50-50." I howled.

Obviously, Naina was not expecting such a regard from my side. She flinched and opened her small purse, took out a 100 Rupees note and banged it on the table. I was waiting for this only. Now it was my turn.

"Thankyou dear. It was so nice of you. I was just kidding." I said in a naughty tone and started laughing. Then I picked the note held her hand and returned it to her. She smiled. She opened her mouth to say something but I pointed my hand towards the door.
********************************************************************************************************************************************************

ON THE BIKE:
I had a 15 year old model of Hero Honda which was obviously not suitable to ride with a girl. Anyways, she sat behind me. Now only a boy knows about the extraordinary experience of riding a bike with a girl sitting behind.

You know the great NEWTON"S LAWS OF MOTIONS are applicable here. When you apply the brakes, due to inertia of girl's body, its front portion collides with your back. And this generates one of the most beautiful feeling of the world.

While driving, I tried this several times. Whenever I used to apply brakes, her breast used to get collide with my back. Oh God!!! I can't explain that sensation. But if you've done it ever, you better know about it.

"So, u didn't tell me who's Rupal, Rimi?" She asked by bending her head towards my ear. She was smelling good.
"She's Rini, not Rimi." I replied.
"Ok baba, Who's Rini?" she asked again.
"They are tution mates yaar." I replied.
"That's all?" she asked as if she's wanting to hear that Rini's my girlfriend.
"Of course dear. That's all." I said and laughed.
********************************************************************************************************************************************************

TWIST NO. 1:
We reached there in 10 min. Although her home was just 3 kms., but I tried to drove as slow as I can, so that I could enjoy more pleasing moments.
She told me to drop her at Piya's house which was a 100 metres away from her home. As I stopped bike, I saw an aunty coming outside the main gate. She stopped as she saw us. Naina screamed in my esar: "Oh My GOD!!! Mom!!!!!!!!"
My heartbeat stopped at once. Naina's mom saw us together. Oh God!!...
...................... continued in Chapter 4.

CHAPTER 2:

THE BELL RANG:
ringring...ringring.... "Hello"
"Hi Himanshu"

"Ohh!! Rupal, how r u??"

"Hey u ... now u don't even recognize my voice??" she shouted.

"Oh!! sorry, Rini... u knw.. ur voice sounded like Rupal's in telephone" I said.

"Oh my God!!! I think I shud talk to u later. Right now dere r some other people more concerned to u!!" She said in rage.

So she's neither Rupal nor Rini. Then who else is she?? Actually dere were only 2 gals in this world who used to call me, and dat too only when there is some genuine need for it.

"Hey... Naina... I m sorry.. So how r u??" I jumped as soon as I realised she was Naina.

"Oh comeon!! does it matter to u??" Her rage continued.

"Hey what's the matter???" I normalized my tone, my excitement ended as I realised that she was seriously angry.

"Nothing, I'll talk to u later. Bye"

"Hey come on Naina, u r behaving like a 10 yr child. I m sorry, I cudn't recognized ur voice at once, u knw.... it was first time u called me". I said in a heavy tone.

"Ohh!! so u've got such a nice opinion for me... I see."

"HEy naaaah... how can u think like dat".
I realised the things have gone wrong this time. So I decided to end up this conversation.

"Ohkies.. if u wanna hang up.. surely u can!!" I said in a firm voice and a nanosecond later I heard beeps of disconnection.
*******************************************************************************
AT TUTION:
"How can she b so short-tempered??" Rupal whooped and took out her physics book."Hey.. don't say anything about her, its all my fault" I replied instantly, although I knew Rupal was saying right.
"Ohh!! my lover boy!!" she imitated voice of a 5 year old girl and both Rupal and Rini started laughing. I must say girls have an awkward sense of humour.
"Hey comeon u two!! If u don't wanna help, den at least stop teasing me!!" I shouted in a firm tone.
"Ohh!! sry, we were just trying to lighten ur mood. Ohkies, so if u really wannna solve this problem then I've an idea!" Rini said wid an expression of a professional love counsellor.
"Ok, tell me what is it??" I asked trying to sound less interested.
"You've to meet her and apologise for ur rudeness. I think dat will do." she said.
"Nah!! Never!! I'll never do dat. Its against my self esteem." I spoke.
"Hey comeon!! What it has to do wid ur self esteem??" Rupal interrupted, "Its only like saying sorry dear!!".
"Ohkies, I'll think abt it. I need some time. Anyways, thnx for ur beautiful suggestions..." I said rudely. Rini flinched and turned her face away.
****************************************************************************AT DINSHAW'S:
Someone had told me once dat girls love flower everytime. I really don't remember who told me dis, but he must be very intelligent for he found out a way to deal wid a girl 'cheaply'. Anyways, I brought some white flowers and arrived at the destination where we decided to meet. Oh sorry! I forgot you to tell about this. Actually, finally I called up Naina, apologised and requested her to meet me.

Dinshaw's Icecream Parlour was an ideal place for meeting because of two reasons:Firstly, icecreams are relatively cheap. And secondly, its not a very popular venue, so private conversations can be safely entertained. Although I was more concerned for the first reason.
I reached there and to my surprise she was already sitting there. She stood up as she saw me. Oh my god!! only males can understand why your heart starts beating fast when a sexy girl stares you. I controlled my eyes to look into her eyes only, although there were much better things to see. This time her beautiful body was inside an orange top and a blue capry. The top was so tight on her body that a perfect outline of her bra was visible to me. I must say she had sexy legs which I noticed for the first time as she wore a capry. Anyways, we sat. I adjusted myself as I was already uncomfortable.

"So, Hi!!" I said slowly surely to start the conversation while she was staring the flowers in my hand.
..............................continued in Chapter 3.

CHRONICLE OF FIRST LOVE: Chapter 1

CHAPTER 1: THE INITIATION
"7-1", I yelled as her ball fell out of the table. "Don't think dat I'll show any kinda mercy wid u", I taunted her. She was wearing a sleeveless and a skirt. Her top already wet wid her sweat was showing the exact outline of her figure.Even at the age of 14, she had developed a little curves. I think she must b lookin' very sexy dat time, but I was busy in my game as table tennis used to b more important to me than girls in those days. (Now u've realised how foolish i was at dat time.)

Anyways, lets return to the game. Okay, I won dat game 15-4. She got irritated again, "You moron, cheater!!!!" and v left again widout sayin' good bye. The next day, I got shifted to my new home in Bagmugalia Extn. and left Arera Colony for ever. Our last meeting was screwed b'coz of my own faults. I still regret, I shud've pre-informed her abt dis, but I thought she would've not cared.
*******************************************************************************

One Year Later:
"So her name's Naina???" Rini asked surprisingly as if I've mentioned the scientific name of some extra-terrestrial animal.

"Nah, her real name is 'Nayana', but v used to call her Naina", I replied.
"Then what's da problem?? You said she used to b ur friend, u people used to play table tennis together, and she is beautiful and sexy as u mentioned rite now. So, go and propose her dear." Rupal said trying to sound intelligently.

"Yeah.. Rupal is right. Infact, u don't look bad either." Rini added. Now what should I consider it, a compliment???

"Hey... but I havent' talked her for one yr. and u knw our last meeting was not dat much gud. May b she would have forgotten me yaar..."I said.

"Oh come on Himanshu, okays.... first go and meet her, b her friend again, den when' u get a chance, propose her." Rini said. Rupal and Rini were my tution-mates at Nitu Di's classes. There's lot to write abt them which I'll write in coming chapters.

"Fine, I'll do as u say, but rite now I think v shoud proceed wid our assignment or Nitu Di will again b on fire."

At Naina's house:
I dressed up as good as I can, took my dad's bike and went to Arera Colony to meet Naina. When I hit the door bell, my heart was pounding so fast dat I felt it will burst out of my body. She came out as usual in her sleevless and lower, had a pen in her hand, uncombed shoulder length hair falling on her neck and she had no sleepers. Oh my god!!!!! She was looking damn hot!! Her figure had grown exponentially in this one year. Outline of her top was giving me an idea dat she hadn't wore a bra.

"Hi!!!", I exclaimed, trying to sound as sober as I can.

"Hi!!", she replied, the confusion was clear in her face.

"SO How r u??" I said, sounding as if I meet wid her everyday.

"I m fine. Sorry but... I can't recognize u!!."

"Ohh!! let me help u. I m the same 'moron cheater' who had beaten u in TT one year ago."

"Hey.......... Himanshu!!!!!!!!!!" she screamed so loudly dat one crow sitting on the mango tree flew. "Where u have been dese days??" she leaped and hugged me.

Firstly, I got shocked as I was afraid if in case her parents were watching us, they'll kick off me frm here. Secondly, it was the first time a girl hugged me, I was frozen up to react. But I must say, it was a heavenly feeling.

"U knw i went to ur house and ur neighbours told me u've shifted. u should have informed me abt it. Oh!! I m so sorry I behaved badly wid u dat day. I shouldn't do like dat, u knw........."

"Oh!! comeon Naina, forget about it." I interrupted her.

"So come inside, why r u standing outside?" she said as if it was my will to stand outside.

"Hey r u sure ur parents won't mind??" I asked by making a cute expression.

"Nah, no one's in home rite now!!. U knw dad has been transferred to Raipur, Bhai has joined coll. in Pune, and mom's joined a primary skool as teacher." she articulated as if I m interested in these details. The only thing dat mattered to me dat time was dat she was alone in home.

"Ohh!! so would u mind... i mean.. a girl lonely in house.. and a boy...!!" I said in a funny voice, trying to fetch the opportunity.

"It seems u've grown up in this 1 year, and have learned to flirt also. Hmm.. so r u coming inside or not??" she said in a tone which reminded me of my class teacher.
I went inside.

"Soo howz bhaiyya? I think he was preparing for IIT-JEE naa??" I asked surely to start some conversation. And finally it started.

I stayed in her house for almost 40 minz. She kept telling me abt herself all the time (u knw....girls love talking abt themselves) dat she had got a pair of specs, and she had a row wid her best friend Piya, she got 91% in 9th class and other craps...On the other hand I was busy in staring her, from top to bottom. She was looking very 'desirable'. I was wondering why I hadn't noticed her beauty a year ago. I think she noticed me doing dat 2-3 times, but who cares???

Anyways, before leaving I took her phone no. gave her mine phone no. and address and she kept a promise to visit my home as soon as possible.
