Chapter 64: 64. The Unexpected
D''s PoV
Scene 8
It was before study holidays for 12th graders. I started feeling weird that I cannot see him regrly like
I do now. The chemistry sir we had also teaches them. So, all the 12B ss came to our ss during
our chemistry period to get his ''All The Best''.
I hurriedly searched for him. He stood way back. But he was so tall that he could be seen from
anywhere in the crowd. He was looking at me too. Obviously, I was at the first desk. When our eyes
met, I had those silly butterflies in my tummy again. I lowered my gaze. Our chemistry sir blessed them
all with an ''all the best!''
We all said ''All The Best'' in the chorus. I mouthed him a special ''All The Best'' and he nodded his head
to me. Not once did he see anywhere else for the whole time he was in our ss. My friend told me.
I couldn''t see him after that. I really missed him. I felt like crying. I hated going to school. Whenever I
crossed the cycle stand or ground or auditorium, I missed him so much. It was so hard for me. But I
made myself busy with my studies and friends. Whenever a guy tried to approach me after that, my
mind would sh his smile and his raised eyebrows in my heart. Never once have I felt those butterflies
again!

Scene 9
I know I will ace the exams. After all, I was ready for these exams 2 times already. Our ss decided to
see all our teachers for this year to get their wishes. We went to her ss to see our chemistry teacher.
She was sitting right in the first desk corner. So cute with those big eyes!
Once my ss leader said that we are from 12th B, she jerked her head and searched the crowd. Her
eyes held a satisfaction when her eyes found me. It gave me an indescribable feeling. I couldn''t take
my eyes-off of her. She was so captivating. When everyone wished us, she looked me in the eye and
mouthed an ''All the best''! That was the best wish I have ever received. Before I wrote every exam, I
literally saw her wishing me in my mind.
I missed her when I couldn''t see her. Her big eyes and innocent child like face always disturbed me in
my dreams. I even tried going to see her. But I couldn''t.
After exams, Dad arranged for flight tickets for me and Kishore. Right after thest exam. Back in my
own ce gave me so many distractions. New college, business, part time studies. Life moves on
right? I made myself engaged in other activities that I put her in the depths of my heart!

"He was the most handsome boy in our school! Every girl had their eyes on him. But his eyes were just
on me. I felt so proud of myself, when my friends had jealous looks on me. He is so manly and
handsome now. I totally can''t stop myself from going behind him! He is..."
"Whoa whoa! Stop it! My ears are bleeding. Give me a break. I agree, yours is a pure and God blessed
love and your husband is the most handsome man in the world. Now shall we have our dinner and then
talk?" Achu said.
"Tasteless fellow, I''m telling you a romantic story and you want to eat? Mark my words, you will die
single!" I cursed her.
She held her hands together and pleaded to go with her to eat. I was tired too after all the narration.
So, I settled on the dining table with aunty, uncle and Achu. We had a good dinner.
"Danya, you sleep here tonight. But tomorrow morning we should tell your family about this. It''s not
good to hide this big issue from your family. They are the only ones who can give a permanent solution
for this problem." Aunty said.
"I know aunty. Rishi wille here before 8am tomorrow. We don’t have to tell anything to my family,
aunty. I don’t want them to feel upset. I can handle him." I told her.
"I can understand how you are feeling, Danya! But you are like my daughter too. I''ve been seeing you
since your childhood. I know you can handle anything. But See, as a parent we find it important to let
your family know!" Uncle said.
"I understand, uncle. If he is not here after 8am tomorrow, then we can tell my family. Please uncle!?" I
know the power of my pleasing puppy eyes.
"Ok dear! We will wait till 8 tomorrow." they both said and went to bed.
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
Achu and I went to her bedroom and settled down with video games.
"Hey please, I feel so sleepy. Let''s sleep. This ‘super Mario’ is really boring!" Achu whined.
"You go to bed. I don’t think I can sleep now. I will y for some time and wille to bed".
"Donkey, It''s already 11pm. Switch it off. Come, You need rest."
"Please Achu, Let me be." I pleaded with her.
She gave me a look and switched the tv off!
"Pch Achu! I was about to reach the princess! I almost killed that dragon."
"Get up now. Get to bed!"
"Sometimes you behave like a ‘school teacher’, Achu!" I went to bedining.
We both settled on the bed and she slept in minutes. Lucky girl. I need Rishi to sleep. I need his
warmth. By now he should have known what exactly happened. He would be feeling guilty. I love him
so much that I don’t even want him to feel guilty. But he cannot keep on doing this to me.
It''s just me who openly stated my feelings for him. So far, he never admitted his feelings. I cannot live
in an illusion for a whole life. He has toe to me this time. Every time he hurt me, I put myself in his
shoes to find the reason behind his reaction. I justified everything he did. But this time it’s different. He
crossed the line and touched my self-respect. He has to pay for it.
I truly believe he wille in the morning for me. He never went in search of Smirthi when she went
missing, because he had no feelings towards her. But he will miss me. He wille in search of me. If
he has not yet discovered his feelings for me, he will now. Aunty knocked the door calling for Achu.
I went to open the door. There were lights downstairs. Aunty and uncle went to bed way before we did.
"What happened aunty?"
"Wake up Achu ma!"
"Why aunty? Any problem?"
"No Danya. Just wake her up!"
"Come in aunty. Achu! Wake up. Aunty is here!" I shook her.
"Pch Danya sleep." Achu bbered in her sleep.
"Achue to our room for a minute!" Aunty woke her up.
"Pch why ma? I''m sleepy."
"Come!" Aunty said sternly.
"You sleep, Danya. She wille in 10minutes." Aunty told me and took Achu out. I sat on the bed
puzzled. Why did she take Achu at this hour? But then, I heard the door open.
The room was dimly lit with a nightmp. I saw my handsome hubbying into the room and locked it
behind him.
What the hell is he doing here at this hour? I just stood there spellbound! He reached for the switch and
lit the room. He looked very tired. His face carries a guilty look. My heart goes out to him to make him
feel better. When our eyes met, he immediately turned away! His hands are fisted into a ball. His legs
had their own mind. They were struggling to keep him at the same position. He takes a step towards
me and stops and goes back. I cannot look at him like this. This sorry look and gloomy face doesn''t suit
him. The charming smile and the winning smirk and the raised eyebrow are perfect for him. He now
looks lost.
I really don''t know what to do now. I tried to look him in the eye. But he never let me. He is suffocating
inside. I know how it will feel. I love him. I love him way too much that I cannot let him feel like this.
"Rishi!" I whispered.
