Next morning I woke up earlier than usual. Being an elder sister is definitely not that easy. I need to prepare energy drink for Nikki and me and also need to pack her lunch. After preparing that I went to pack my minimal lunch since I have lost appetite. Nikki got up and was ready to go to school.I wasn''t ready at all. I was just feeling a bit dizzy. I packed up and dressed up. And left home.


    After I had reached college I had the best time. Lacy didn''t come thank God. I know I can''t hide it from her. She would definitely catch me.


    But one thing we became a bit close. We chat and had our gossips.


    I talked with others as well nobody figured out my position. But I didn''t want others to pity me or blame me. I just wanted to avoid everything.


    Soon classes were over and time for lunch break. I was waiting just for this moment to call dad and get some mom''s info.


    "Hello Dad, How is mom? "


    "She is better than yesterday. "


    "Oh, did she eat anything? "


    "Yeah, tea and biscuits in the morning. She had cornflakes meal for breakfast. "


    "Thank God. Did you have your breakfast? "


    "No.I am not feeling well. "


    "Dad! take it and have your own. I can''t handle two at a time. You need to take care of yourself when I''m not around. "


    "Um okay. Did you have yours? "


    I lied through my teeth.


    "I will have it in my canteen. Just now I got a break. "


    "Okay have yours.Your mom is okay don''t worry. "


    "Thanks dad it''s okay. I won''t worry. Bye"


    "Bye Sonnet"


    I hung up. By now I saw Sky looking at me. Actually I called dad outside our class so no one heard our conversations. So I was a bit relieved.


    I took out a small chocolate bar and had it for lunch. Nothing more. I somehow felt Sky wanted to ask me something. His eyes made me think that. Or it was really my illusion. My world of imagination and fantasy where I dream to be with him. Ellie was asking me to have some more. I replied that I don''t wanna eat now. And mostly avoided her or simply dodged her intuition.


    Our eyes met.


    "Sky what are you reading? "


    "I''m reading a book which I had already read before. "


    "Oh.I see. You know I got a scholarship last week. "


    "What kind of scholarship was that? Will one be able to apply next year? "


    "Nope.The scholarship was only for this year. Part of my semester fees will be reduced. It was distributed at international book fair. "


    "Wow! Cool. But did you see or read any book or only went to get the scholarship? "


    "Dad bought one but I don''t know the name. I roamed the stalls and saw many books. But you know books are expensive. "


    "What? Seriously you don''t even know the book your dad bought along with you? Do people like you really exist? "


    "Yeah, I''m the living version of those people. "


    "Do you recall the author? "


    "Seriously, No"


    Actually after my mom''s condition I hardly got time to even have a glance at the book. Because of which it was left aside. But I can''t simply tell him the reason.


    "Okay I''m going to my seat. See you later. "


    "Seriously, you don''t remember? "


    "Yeah, No. "


    Sir entered and I rushed to my place. He was looking at me.


    And suddenly turned his head and smirked. I don''t know why.


    I tuned myself to be in sync with Sir''s lecture. I was mathematics class.


    Sir was praising Sky a lot. He became his favorite student for his diligence in maths and love for cricket and books. Both he and professor had a lot in common. And both never left an inch to make me laugh or blush in that class.


    "Sunny be ready Sir will call you Sun-net.Ha ha "


    "Sky! "


    He immediately turned in front.


    "Sun-net what''s the matter? Any problem? "


    Sir came in front me. Sky sat diagonal in front with me.


    "No, Sir. I was just busy taking out my notebook. "


    "Okay Sun-net pay attention. You are a good student. You need to be proper. "


    "Yes Sir. "


    Sky from behind was mimicry ing him pointing at me.


    I couldn''t help but laugh.


    After Sir turned in front I whispered with my hands moving


    "One slap to you if you don''t stop. "


    He laughed further and now Sir pointed at Sky.


    "Sky any problem. Today I find two of my good students distracted. Both you and Sun-net. "


    In my mind I was thinking ''The Reason is only You''


    "No Sir. No problem. "


    "Then fine let the class begin"


    After the class was over I packed my things. And headed straight for the drawing class.


    Our benches were apart. But luckily mam called from roll nos were both I and Sky went forward to mam to learn the process.


    Our eye whisper continued and his charming smile continued moving me. I was thoroughly bewitched but came to my senses soon.


    After the class was over. We all went down stairs. And the college was over. Sky, I ,Husky and Shelly left together. After that I went on my road to catch the train . On my way to meet mom in the hospital.
