Chapter – 25
Avinash was sitting alone in his office scrolling his contact numbers on his mobile suddenly he stopped at number 887698.....Sohini Jha. Avinash smiled, he repeated the number again. Avinash envisioned her in her name, her sweet smilte, slim lips, polite way of conversation , her furtive look at him during her conversation with his mother. Avinash said to himself 'Did Sohini fell spell only on his mother or he was also on verge of falling prey of her innocecency.
Avinash remembered Nisar who once told him 'be brave, forget what happened in 8th Std' . He questioned to himself ' Mr Avinash, Do you scare of girl's rebuttal or are you shy from girls.? Answered came from his inside ' I am both afraid of girl and shy too.' Question emerged again 'then forget thinking about Sohini'
'No, I shall have to become brave, She looks good, after all now she is not stranger at all.' Avinash muttered.
Avinash dialled her number,immediately disconnected perhaps shyness was overcoming him. He kept on dialling her number and kept on disconnecting. He couldnt dare to speak her.' In one of his dialling on number he forgot disconnecting line he heared ringing tone . Avinash smiled. Within couple of minutes. His phone rang he looked at screen. '
Sohini Jha calling................
Avinash switched on his mobile.
',who is this ? May i know who gave me missed call'
'Sohini' This is Avinash, you remember we met on kurla station. Infact i was dialling some other number ,your number got pressed.by mistake.
'No problem, by the way how is Aunty ? Sohini asked
''She is fine,'Avinsh replied.
'are you in Bombay or Pune ?
'At present I am in Pune.
'what is your plan in Diwali.
'I shall come Bombay in Diwali, by the way, are you going to Bihar in Diwali'
'I have only two days leave on Diwali so I decided to be here'
'Dont forget to say my namsate to aunty and Uncle when you call them.'
'Ok, Sure, 'Avinash replied.'
'So how is your class going '
'Fine, I am busy in preparing for my forth semester examination which is to be held just after Diwali.'
'how is your preparation.' Avinash asked
'.Results will tell the preparation. Though I am preparing hard.
'Do you come on Facebook ? If you get free we will spend some time chatting after coming from office I get bored.'
'No problem' what about you. How is your work going on.'
'Yea its fine, Infact I am calling from office.' Avinash replied
Ok' why don't we see on Facebook infact I have to sort out some work'
Both ended their conversation. Avinash was astonishing on his courage,the way he was confidently talking with her had instilled confidence in him. He was not a bit surprised at sohini,s frankness since from very same day he realized her boldness when both first each other.
Avinash saw clock he hurriedly moved out from common room, heeded to work site.
''I don't know from where I got so much courage while speaking to her' ' Avinash disclosed the conversation he had with Sohini
‘Bravo, keep it up. the more you fear from girl the more it will make you timid'.Nisar said patting his back.laughed.
Avinash gazed at Nisar thought for moment on his sincerity of his advice.
‘are you making fun of me or advising seriously ' Avinash said earnestly.
'It is advice of love guru' Nisar replied laughing.
'Nisar, Whatever you think, but she has made special place in my heart. I begun to like her.
''You know ghazal ?
'who is Ghazal, Did you also make girl friend’. Avinash asked smiling
'Poetry, in Hindi Kavita' Nisar replied after a pause he continued
‘In Williom Wordsworth words ' poetry is spontaneous overflow of powerful emotion recollected in tranquillity'
Similarly Fair Sex is a precious gift of nature,s powerful emotion recollected in tranquillity and gave in form of girls to mankind. They are very precious.'
Avinash sat on chair, brought his laptop out from bag. Perhaps was trying to open Facebook.
