S H A R I K - P O V

The night was too long...
Actually since I had seen her every night is to difficult to spend.. I can feel every second of Clock. I can hear its Tick Tick Tick all night. First time I felt how long these nights are!!
I don't know what is happening to me but all I do all night is smile and smile and smile like an idiot thinking about her.
Her. Who not even spare a look on me!! Huh!!


But Now am realizing why everyone said Love is blind!!
Yes it is... And may be she is not just a Crush but more than this...
Or it could be a mere attraction
I don't know what it is but the thing is THIS THING IS NOT LETTING ME EVEN SLEEP!!!


I looked out side the sky and noticed the moon she always looks at like an excited little kid... Am really jealoused no no what she says?? jeko.. Jeko of This moon...
And everytime I look at it I feels the same... WHY AM NOT HER MOON??? and I scowled and turned around at opposite side and the thought she must be talking to this MOON instead of me this time....!!! Moon ni ho gya mera sotan ho gya!! Like Ufff


________________


I woke up with a smile on my face of course I had dreamt of her again. Atleast in my dreams she is with me. She is near me. I can feel her presence there too!!


PT sir just took our attendence and sent us inside as our exams are approaching and he wants us to study hard!! Like he don't know that 99% of us are going to sleep again.... Ugh... Now I have to wait till 8:30... Complete
2.5 hr more than now to have her glimpse.


I laid down on the bed closing my eyes and her image her moves her voice her words her walk everything started playing in my mind again and ufff just a thought of her and here I can feel blush on my face!!
What if someone notices that am blushing?? The Sharik Khan is blushing ahhh!!! Aarvi you made me crazy!!


_____________________


I don't know when I fell asleep and when I woke up its already 8 'o' clock! Shit! I hurried to washroom and took a quick bath and changed into my uniform...
I have no time to go to mess! Today am going to starve!!


When I got dressed up I noticed hostel was almost empty. I grabbed my bag and rushed outside and I noticed Shivay was also there rushing to school with Dhruv and Varun. I shaked my head and smiled of course they are also my brothers only! How can I expect them not to accompany me in getting late. I joined them and walked towards the school.


On reaching school, as usual my eyes started searching for that face in between the students standing in assembly ground. But she was no where to see!!
My heart sank deeper on the thought that she's not here...
Is she fine??


And suddenly the students standing on the stage got my attention. Is is she Aarvi standing there??? My eyes locked at her... I always listened from her and others that she is really a good speaker... Now she is on stage!! My heart flattered... I really wanted to listen to her...
Today... Today I can see her as much as I can... And with that I can listen to her voice too!! Without any hesitation... And I smiled...


I bumped into someone "ahhh" And noticed Dhruv standing there...
"Bro dekhkar" He said
"Sorry sorry" I replied him while my eyes we're still on Aarvi...


I rushed to classroom and kept my bag...
"Shivay, Dhruv, let's go for assembly" I said to them


They gave me a look like am saying them to do dance on chamak chalo!!


"What???" I said "You remember what PT sir said - no child in classroom during assembly" I said in serious tone and my eyes met Shivay's eyes. He gave me A smirk and his expression clearly saying bro-I-know-you-better!!


I fake coughed and stepped towards the door "Come fast" And heard their sigh but they gave in and followed.
We stood behind our class line and assembly started.


In between prayer too I was stealing glances of her. I don't know what's going on or what they are saying on stage all my attention is on Aarvi!! She was blabbering standing on stage... Might be revising what she's going to present and I smiled looking at her. I know she is perfect she is always perfect but still she make sure to give her best in everything with all her efforts! Meri jaan is so determined!!


And the anchor announces her name "Now I would like to call Aarvi for her speech"


I smiled looking at her and she took a deep breath and stepped towards the mic. She didn't used the dice for giving speech but insead stood in front of the mic stand. Usually students use to speak from the page or any helping material but she stood there with empty hands and confidence dripping from her expression.


She adjusted the mic to her height and was standing there like the stage, the mic the audience all are for her only. Like she is very used to it.


"Hey very warm good morning to everyone present over here.
I, AARVI RAJPUT, student of Class 10th is here to express my speech on the TOPIC which must have a VERY SPECIAL PLACE in heart of EACH and EVERY ONE standing OVER here"


She started with confidence... Emphasizing her each and every word with her hands moving with her every word.
My eyes didn't even dare to blink in between her movements are too flawless.


"Yess..... Guessed right It's PATRIOTISM"


"So a question arises, what is PATRIOTISM?? " She said thinning her eyes with a pause like she is actually questioning and we have to answer.


Her face expressions are literally changing with every word she is saying.


"This is not just clicking photos with our national flag and posting it on social media platform with a bold caption 'I love my nation
#MynationMypride' It is WAY MORE THAN THAT" She said in a way like she is actually scolding us.


And believe me every one present here all the teachers, students, principal and even workers gathered around to listen to her. Her words are so attention capturing. It is something like we are eager and desperate to listen to her.
Her body language and the way words are coming out for her mouth cleary shoes that she knows very well how to gather crowd attention.


"And I can proudly say that I belong to a NATION with deep roots of PATRIOTISM SINCE AGES" She added proudly and her expressions.... Ufff I am not able to decide whether I have to adore her expressions, her movements or her powerful and confident words.


I am literally getting goosebumps with her each and every word. I am feeling like I am listening to some very trained speaker with deep feelings of patriotism. I can see her respect her janoon her love her pride for our nation.
She is really something.
It's feeling like my girl is roaring like a lionesses on the stage leaving everyone open mouthed.


She continued speaking flawlessly and all I want is this speech never ends. I am literally feeling proud of her. Is there anything she can't do?? I think no?? Just perfect then many of us standing here.


At last she added a quote which literally came out as a roar with goosebumps


"Mei Bharat ki beti hoon,
Mei bharat ki naari hoon...


Mere haathon mei chudhiya nahi...
Bandookh thama kar toh dekh...


Mere haathon mei chudhiya nahi...
Bandookh thama kar toh dekh...


Mujh par saari nahi...
Khaki wardi pehnakar toh dekh....


Kaali durgaa Tu dekhega is dharti par...
Kaali DURGA Tu dekhega is dharti par...


Meri bharat maa par aankh uthaa kar toh dekh"


JAI HIND JAI BHARAT!!!


And the moment she said this all the assembly ground filled with applause... Even our principal who never bothered to clap for anyone too clapped for her with pride on his face. All teachers... All students were looking more than impressed by her!!!
My Girl have ability to shut everyone's mouth not with empty words but with actions... And she proves it every day!!


And my heart danced at my choice my love!!
Tell me who can not love her???
Nothing is in my hand now....!!!
My heart no more belongs to me!!


"Hume guroor tha khudh par ki Ishq nah hoga kisise...


Lekin unki adaon ne
Sara garoor chur chur kar diya!!!"
