Close Apart
Chapter – 2
“They meet…”
“British Council, 5:00 pm, Hmm”
The reason Aditya was thinking so much that day, because meeting Amrita at 5’o clock would mean that he would have to leave his office half an hour ago than his usual time. And that would mean that he’ll have to take this matter to his manager’s concern.
“At 5:00!! What for? “
“Actually I have an appointment… with my… Dentist.”
God knows why Dentists get involved in these appointments!!
So, there he was! Out of his office, half an hour earlier than usual.Aditya was feeling a little uneasy. Actually he was never comfortable with girls. An issue which was of a major concern for his fellow colleagues. Many a times his friends have arranged blind dates for him, but all in vain!!
But this time it is little different. Anyone who had known Aditya would have gone through a major shock viewing him talk to a girl, but Aditya knew he had a header here.
Actually, Amrita was in the same class, in which Aditya used to study…
“So you’re here!” Amrita said as she saw Aditya looking for her.
“Sorry I am late! Actually my office …”
“Eh… we can’t stand here and talk!! We need to…”But before Amrita could possibly gather her words, Aditya proposed.
Hey!! Wait a second! Don’t presume so much! At least listen to he has to say…
“Actually I was thinking if we could have some coke in Pizza Hut, it’s just round the corner and in the mean time I can solve the whole mystery.”
Let me tell you, this is exactly not the usual “Aditya” talking!
“What mystery?” enquired Amrita.
“About me… I bet you must be thinking all this time, who I am.”
“Actually I remain too busy to think anything, but yes!”
“So I rescue you from this situation, to tell you that I am Aditya Mehra, we studied together in Dayanand Vidya Mandir. So you see? We’re classmates!!”
“That’s so enlightening!” said Amrita as they took seats inside Pizza Hut.
“Yes I remember now! Aditya, the geek guy!!” said Amrita
“Stop that now! So what’s your story?”
“Nothing special ! Finished my schooling, did B.A. English , and got this job on reference of one of my father’s friend.” Said Amrita
“Now! Who could have guessed that they give jobs in British Council on reference!!” teased Aditya.
“Excuse Me! I had to pass through all the requiting procedure to get in!!” resented Amrita.
“Excuse me! May I have your orders please?” the waiter arrived at last.
“Two regular pizzas with cokes!!” Aditya made his usual order.
“What! Regular? We have met after so many days! That calls for something more… make it a couple of “lamb delight with sejwan sauce.”
Aditya wouldn’t mind a little excess in his daily expenditure (At least I wouldn’t have!).
