Meghna woke uncomfortably from her sleep the next morning. Her body was sweating badly. She looked up the fan was off. Sunlight was beaming through in the window making room warmer. She got up and inquired her mother informed there is blackout in her state. For the next two-three days they will have a hard time without Air conditioners and fans. Meghna got angry, eventhough she was fond of summers more than winters still she couldn't strand the mocking heat and sunlight.
Her day went slower than usual, she failed to study at home and went to coaching center at 3pm. She had received Shubh's text but decided not to respond him properly.
But he was always a charmer anyway, it took him only few minutes to calm her and cool her anger. Yet, he had no idea that she was upset and angry because of his request the day before. After her day's coaching she went home and sat in hot temperature at home. The rest day went on in same manner as she followed her daily routine.
She hoped electricity circuits will be repaired soon in her area and slept through the night. But the next morning she felt devastated, as the blackout had not gone away. The scorching summer heat was killing her internally. Meghna decided to make a call to Shubh.
She took a deep breath and dialed his number. On the other end he was in half sleep and said .. hello.. ? Meghna bolted suddenly .. "You still want to meet me?". Hearing this he suddenly woke up from half sleep and said "Yes". She told him to meet her near in a mall at 4pm as Meghna knew that he still can't be fully trusted. And a public place was much more safer and quiet than a movie. She knew it wasn't an ideal date yet Meghna went on with it. Maybe because she was dying in Scorching summer heat at home anyway and mall was the only place with airconditioners still working despite blackout. She looked at the time it was 12:00 Noon. She called him back and asked him one simple Question "What is your favourite color?" .. "Blue" He replied after thinking a minute. Honestly, he didn't have any favourite color till date cause Shubh never paid attention to himself ever. She said "Fine, in that case i will wear blue today so that you can recognise me easily" and Meghna disconnected the call.
Afterall she really liked him and won't leave any stone turned until she had him in her life. Maybe she had already fallen in love with him.
