There is a reson behind everone we meet in our life cu

This book is dedicated to the love of my life - Mohit Sharma.

Thank you for everything you did for me. No one can love and understand me more than you do

Sometimes it’s not easy to recognize the true love.

For the first time in last 4 years my hands were in his hands where they always wanted to be, I hugged him tightly, my heart was beating like drum and my breath was taken away. I didn’t want to leave his hands but I have to. I feared to lose him; he has now become my life my world. He left for his hostel while my eyes kept watching him till he disappears.

There were so many things that already had in the past 4 years but I was still not sure whether we will be together forever or it  will be a short Journey till the college ends. So many struggles, hassles, fun, friends ups and down but It’s all been a very Interesting journey.

Let’s begin:

I still remember August 2007 when it was my first day at college (Engineering); after the welcome party all the new students including their parents were aligned with the lecturers and professors to clear their doubts if any. I being a hostel student was busy with my parents enquiring about the hostel address and how to reach there and many other important information.

Shortly all the new students who were to reside in hostel were accompanied by one of the HOD (Head Of Department) she was our hostel in charge as well we were taken in a bus to our hostel premises; so the boys hostel was within the college campus and girls hostel was an hour drive away from the college.

Once we reached the hostel all of us were really busy with unpacking the things my mother helped me with all the unpacking as being girl’s hostel my father was not allowed inside the rooms. I made some new friends and roommates as well.

We were happy to meet each other.

I met a new girl Sonal and soon we became best friends. She was a lovely girl with a very helping attitude.

However after an hour we needed to say bye to our parents and relatives who came with us. I also said bye to my parents with some tears in my eyes. Though I was already in habit of leaving a hostel life(spent my middle and higher schools in hostel) so I was all okay after some time.

The first night was sleepless for all of us we had so many questions running in our mind. After dinner and setting the beds and wardrobes I went to Sonal’s room. We were already best friends; we started talking about our family, friends and went to other rooms as well to meet our new hostel mates.

No one was sleeping everyone was thinking what will happen tomorrow at the first official college day. Being girls we were busy deciding what to wear; the biggest concern.

It was 12 AM at night so we thought of sleeping; as of now I was alone no roommate has arrived so I went to Sonal’s room and decided to sleep with her.

The next morning was too busy for all of us as we had only two bathrooms and we were altogether 13 girls to get ready. The college bus was to arrive at 8:00Am and we had our 1st lecture at 09:00AM.

We all got ready with best dress that we can wear. I wore a long Kurti with jeans and just wear a Kajal in my eyes which I am fond of. Sonal was also looking so very pretty in her Patiala suit. We reached college on time.

We were busy searching the class rooms. Sonal went to her class as she was in electronics stream and I being a Computer Science student went to the other classroom.

The first day was all fun I attended all my lectures made some new friends and had lot of fun. Everyone gave me a new name Mannu.

The college was over at 4:00 PM and we took our seats in bus back to hostel. I sat with Sonal.

We reached at 05:30 PM. It was a very tiring day so as soon as we reached hostel we went to sleep.

Suddenly I woke up after hearing someone’s voice oh “It was my new roommate Chitra”.

She was there with her parents she was very sad and upset once they left her she cried a lot I tried to console her. Soon we were good friends. Shortly I went to Sonal’s room so that we can go market and bring some necessary things that were missing from the room and washrooms.

We explored the new markets, eating joints and happily returned back by 9 PM.We sat for dinner and suddenly we saw our hostel in charge with new hostel warden. We welcomed her she was a married lady with two young kids who will be staying with her in the hostel.

With time we became family some girls also made their boyfriends and I also welcome my third roommate Pihu from Delhi. Everything was going smoothly at college and hostel. It was after a month that the college fest was announced and we were busy doing the preparations.

There were dance/music skit and play completions and we were busy giving auditions I also had my audition the next day.

I prepared my dance on a Rajasthani folk song; let me tell you that I am a good folk dancer. The next day we all assemble at the audition room. I

think it was there when I saw him for the first day. Well everyone was performing so good I was bit nervous.

Here came my turn. Judges: Are you ready? Me: ”Yes Ma’am”. I am.

I started my dance and whole audience was clapping for me I performed for at least 3-4 minutes. I gave my best. Everyone was praising me and my performance .I was very happy and secured the highest mark in judges sheet.

After my performance I sat next to Sonal to watch rest the performances. Sonal complemented me for my performance.

Sonal: I never knew you are such an amazing dancer. (Me laughing and thanking her )

Then came his turn.

Judge: Are you ready Rishi?

He : Yes. Music please

He was really a good dancer. He performed on a Punjabi song.

(I never knew that he will be the one with whom I will be going to dance forever.)

He was also one of the selected candidates.

Sonal: Rishi is one of the charming boys in our class. He is so handsome. All the girls are after him.

Me: oh really! But I can’t see anything such interesting in him. He is just okay though he dances so well.

Sonal: “You know what you are a kid”!

Both of us kept laughing and made fun of each other.

The fest was just after two days. We were busy with our practice sessions. Some of my hostel mates were also practicing for the function in the same room.

I saw Rishi with my hostel mates gossiping and practicing dance with them.

I just ignored them and concentrated on my own performance.

A voice came from my back. It was him

Rishi: Hi!

Me: Hello!( My heart was beating like anything). He looked so adorable. Rishi: You are Mannat right?

Me : Yes And you Rishi.

Rishi: You dance so well.

Me : You too, you have good western dancing skills. All the best for tomorrow. Bye. See you.

I think he wanted some more conversation but I resigned.

Here came the day finally. My performance was sequenced at 11th. I got ready with my beautiful Rajasthani costume. I did my make up by my own. I was very nervous; thousands of butterflies were running in my stomach.

Thank God Sonal was the anchor for the day. She called me just 15-20 minutes before my performance to the green room were all the participants were waiting for their turn. He was also standing there.

We both looked at each other and wished best of luck by showing our thumbs to each other.

I was already suffering from fever and only Sonal was aware about that. So she helped me with the medicine before I started.

After 5 -10 minutes my name was announced and I started my performance everything was going so well all my friends especially from boys hostel all of them were clapping and boosting my morale. I was performing confidently.( Number of boys were more in my friends list than girls)

All of a sudden due to anxiety I started to shiver and I was about to faint; It become difficult for me to perform anymore though I completed my performance but as soon as I finished I fainted ;my college director rushed to back stage and held me.

He came to congratulate me for my performance but as soon as he learnt about my health he arranged for water, medicines and I was taken to medical room with the help of my friends and function organizers. Sonal was not able to accompany me as she has to do the anchoring on the stage. After an hour she came to meet I was sleeping after taking the pills. She was very much worried about me. She woke me up , I was feeling much better now. Rishi was also waiting outside the medical room to see if I was okay.

I came out with Sonal and saw him.

Rishi: Hey Mannat, You alright? What happened to you?

Me(I was happy to see him waiting for me): Yes I am fine now I am so sorry I missed your performance.

Rishi: That’s alright.Your were the best.

All three of us walked together towards the Stage to hear the winner’s name.

Sonal already knew the results however she didn’t disclosed to me.

I was eagerly waiting for the winner name to be announced. And here came that moment.

Judge:The first prize goes to Mannat for dance performance. I was so so so very happy… I was awarded certificate and a dancing shield for the same.

To my surprise the second position was bagged by Rishi. I was so happy for him. I also congratulated him for his prize.

It was a proud moment for me.

I became famous all around the college and teaching staff. Everyone came to congratulate me but at the same time I had few enemies as well one of my hostel mate (Shreya) she was crying like hell because she was not awarded anything.

Shreya : Only because Mannat fainted she was awarded 1st prize. I was much better (crying …crying…crying)

(She had no idea that she was talking about a girl who is not only very good but a great classical dancer and a state level winner)

I felt offended by her words but my friends and teachers appreciations were enough for me to ignore her cheap comments. We were offered snacks at college after that we left for our hostel.

I called my parents to inform them about my prize and performance. They were happy and blessed me a lot.

However there was something unusual that night I kept thinking about him (Rishi) the entire night .Didn’t even realized I was already 12:00 Am so I went to sleep.

We had our 1st term sessional coming next week so all of were busy with the preparation and I bunked few classes as well.

Whether I was in library or in the multimedia rooms, stairs I can always see him. But I hesitated and felt shy to talk to him. So I rather concentrated on my studies.

After the tests we had Diwali holidays so we were deciding when to leave for home. I was alone to leave for Delhi as Pihu had some important task to complete so she said that she will leaving after 2-3 days but I knew Rishi is from Delhi and he can accompany till there I asked Pihu if she could ask his classmate Rishi to accompany me to Delhi as it’s the first time I was travelling alone. She said that she will surely ask him for the same and she also said that he won’t deny he is very helpful.

The next day we went to college there were no lectures as everyone was busy to leave for their home and the teachers were busy with checking the test papers.

I met Pihu at the lunch time she said that she has asked Rishi to drop me till Delhi and he has agreed. She also added that he asked for my number so that both of us can co-ordinate with each other.

He is at the backyards you can meet him and share your number.

I run to meet him and saw that (Rishi) tall figure standing with one of his classmate.

Me: Hey Rishi.

Rishi: Hi. How are you? Long time no see.

Me: Yeah was busy. So you will drop me to Delhi Right? Do you have your phone take my number?

Rishi: Sure .Text me.

Me: Right so tomorrow morning at bus stand. Will that be okay?

Rishi: Yes surely. Take care bye . See you tomorrow

I was so happy that at least till Delhi I will be able to make good time with him but I have to travel an hour more from Delhi to reach at my home.

As soon as I reached hostel and went to my room my phone rang.

Shanky : Hey Mannat are you leaving for home tomorrow.

Me: Yes I am.

(Shanky is my friend and he is from my hometown and he is very good calm and helpful person.)

Shanky: Would like to go with us me Gaurav, Aman and other mates.

Me :Yes Of Course. In fact I was looking for some who can accompany me. Oh I am so happy you called me. That so nice of you.

Shanky: My driver will come at Delhi bus stand so we can go together and enjoy the journey. We will take lunch at Delhi.

Me: That sounds great. See you tomorrow then.

Shanky : If you wish I can come to your hostel to pick you.

Me: Oh! Thank you for that but I will manage to reach the bus stand . Don’t worry Shanky. See you at 7 Am at bus stand.

Me: Alright . Bye . I need to do packing now Byes

Shanky : Bye Mannat .See you tomorrow

I continued with my packing had my dinner and slept early As I have to wake up early tomorrow. I was so happy that I forgot that I have asked Rishi as well to accompany me till Delhi. I didn’t even save his number in hurry.

The morning alarm rings

I woke up and hurried to get ready suddenly I realized of Rishi “what he will think of me”. Might he feel offended?

I woke up Pihu and asked her to say him sorry from my end I am leaving for home with my other friends.

Pihu: Are you crazy? What he will think of you? This is not good.

Me: Please! Please! Please. I am so sorry dear. I didn’t want to do that intentionally.

Pihu: Okay No worries. I will do that for you. Take care. happy Diwali and happy holidays.

Me: You too my love. Call me once you reach your home

Pihu: Sure I will. Will try to come back with you.

We hugged each other and I left for the bus stand.

I meet my friends I was so happy to see them. We bought our tickets and grabbed the back seats so that we can gossip altogether and enjoy the food as well.

It will take 4 hours to reach Delhi. We enjoyed a lot on the journey.
