....and please stop readin that stupid novel.."her mother slammed the door and left. she recently got a dose from her..on everything..."beta padh le..arey room kitna ganda hai..study table ki halat dekho.sab jagah kapde hi kapde hai...ye ladki kab sudharegi...hostel jayegi toh kya karegi.." and this last sentence of her mother actually made her think...hostel jayegi toh kya karegi!
there were hardly few months left for her school life to get over...hardly few months!!
it was hard for her to beleive that she have leave her own school...her canteen, where she and her besties used to drink tea hiding from teachers..as it was not allowed for students.. there will be no more standing in line waiting for samosas and bulling kids and showing there 'seniority' by sayin, "hum bade hain na...apki didi hai na..hume pehle lene do." ha ha
no more throwing chalks on each other...no more bithching about teachers and their tacky saris..no more discussing about 'oh so hot boyfriends' k 'oh not so hot girlfriends'....aaah!!
no more morning assembly...our saying 'goodmorning madam, god bless you'....no more happy b'day songs, and distributing chocolates...and what not!!!
and above all this, there will be no mom to irritate me by saying "khana kha na!!!!!" "padh na!!!!" "so ja!!!!!"
NOTHING...

"abhi tak nai soi?? why is that novel still in your hand?? thik hai..ho jane de bus miss teri subah.main nai uthaungi tujhe!" her mother almost screamed this time..letting all her neighbours know ki dhara ko daat pad rahi hai :P
and finally she slept...with tears in some corner of her eyes....

it was 1:05 pm...after the final assembly she came out of her class with rest of her friends, tired..exhausted..dull..but still happy that the school hours were over!
she stepped out of the school gate..sun was just above her and the warm breeze with lots of dust particles passed her face. she didnt wanted to talk to anyone..she just wanted to ..go home. she somehow managed to find her bus in the heavy traffic as it was the standard time for all schools to get over. she tried to walk as fast as she can so that she gets a corner seat in the bus where she can sit peacefully after such a hectic day, but suddenly she herd someone callin her name out loud..."dhara didi,......dhara didi........ruko..." she turned around to see..their were 5 children of approx same age group may be in 1st or 2nd standard, "dhara didi...humare saath chalo" they all held her hand tightly as if she'll run somewhere, and walked to the bus. they made her sit on a seat near them..she wanted to vanish desperately from there..she didnt wanted to hear all those noises..she wanted to sleep..she wanted silence, but at the same time she didnt wanted to hurt those kids' feelings and said "ok" and sat near them,,but no this wasn't the end dear! she was forcefully made to play "aao milo sheelo shalo" . "sunday, monday" and what not games! with a fake smile on her face..she played them all!!! with every 5 of them!!! FINALLY! her stop came..of which she was so badly waiting for..she almost jumped out of the bus..and started walking but as she took few steps..5 of them along with 4 new ones screamed..."1..2..3..Dhara didi...u r very sweeeeeeeet"

and at the end of the day...she returned home...SMILING! :)
