Sunday,
I woke up to get ready for the office and suddenly my mom shouts, "O hero kidhar"
I'm going to the office, I replied. Moron your father has opened the office or what? It's Sunday morning today is your holiday. Previously you used to wake up this early only to play cricket but now you want to go to the office. What's the matter? Did you start to like some girl from your office? I redden a little and lied "No mom" what are you saying? it's nothing like that. I am your mother, I understand when you lie, No mom I am not lying and I sat there and thought finally Ankita became my best friend and this Sunday arrived. My friends started calling my thoughts halted I picked up the call. My friend on the other side yelled Yuvraj stop fantasizing about Ankita and come to the beach we have a tournament to win today.
I said okay, I wore my jersey and rushed to the beach as soon as reached everyone started shaking my hand saying the busy person has arrived. You forgot about us after meeting Ankita. I said stop teasing, guys I'll have to work if I want to earn. My friend said don't try to fool me I know you only go to the office to see Ankita you don't like the job at all. mangesh to dipu And he never does what you don't like, After that, the match started and the match was going well and I was playing good too.
Qualified in the semi-finals by winning the first and second matches then after semi final match.
My team qualified for the finals and we started the final match with fielding. The opponent team scored 91 runs in 10 overs. We ended up having a target of 92 runs.
Our batting started and we scored 50 runs in the first six overs with a loss of the second wicket I stepped in. I played with a calm mind slowly and the match wasn't going well after 9.4 overs we were left with 2 balls and 80runs. Everyone was worried we needed 12 runs on 2 balls and I was on strike. My friend Mangesh was on non-strike he came to me and said bro don't worry all you have to do is make sure the ball crosses the boundary twice. Yeah easy for you to say. He said just imagine that Ankita is cheering for you from the boundary line. I laughed and said okay I'll try my best. I started to imagine Ankita is cheering for me from the boundary line and I hit a six right after that. Everyone got fired up and started cheering for me come on Yuvraj once more. I got all fired up now all I need is one more six to win. The deciding ball was thrown and I smashed the ball with the helicopter shot the ball went flying across the boundary. Everyone came running to me we all started shouting and hurray! we won and they all lifted me on their shoulders everyone congratulated me well played Yuvraj suddenly mangesh said congratulate me. We didn't win the match because Yuvraj played well it's was all because of my strategy. My friend Dipu asked how?
I told him to imagine Ankita was at the boundary line. Everyone laughed and started teasing me shouting Ankita's name.
I said stop teasing me and let's click some pictures. After clicking pictures with the trophy I came home thinking tomorrow I'll meet Ankita she's my best friend now I wonder what will happen tomorrow. I slept thinking about Ankita.
Like every other Monday, I went to the office early for spend time with ankita and As soon as I entered the office I saw Ankita was not there so I sat there unhappy waiting for Ankita. Her friend sanju arrived after some time I asked her where's you friend didn't come with her? She said no she left her home with me but then her stomach started paining so she told me to go ahead she'll come afterwards. I mumbled you fool why did you leave her. I started to get anxious waiting for her. I was sitting there with an uneasy feeling worrying about her. Said Sanju to call Ankita and ask if she has reached home, Sanju started calling Ankita but Ankita was not picking up the call, I asked Sanju had she come with you till the station, Sanju said yes, I decided to go look for her I informed my trainer that I'll be back after some time.
I ran to the station to check but didn't find her I searched on my way to the office also but still, there was no sign of her, so I tracked her number and saw that her last location was near the station so I ran to that location and started searching the nearby places. After running so much like a mad person, While running, I looked at the garden on my left side, went forward and suddenly stopped and came back 2 3 steps and saw the inside of the garden. Ankita was sitting on the inside seat of the garden and Finally, I was able to take a deep breath and calm my mind. I went there and sat beside her. She asked me why are you here? you should be at the office right now and how did you find me? I said leave all that and tell me why didn't you return to your home if your stomach was paining instead why are you sitting here? Are you crazy or something?
She said I didn't know my stomach start pain today. I had this problem since I was born. I randomly start to feel stomach aches sometimes. So I said okay but let's head home now. She denied saying no I'm fine now don't worry. She said let's head towards the office now I said okay but don't overdo today you should take the work lightly and rest well. She said okay and we started to head towards the office. As we were walking she held my hand I was feeling nervous holding her hand but I was feeling happy too. While walking, I told Ankita that you are fine, don't you go home and take rest. Ankita said I'm fine, I don't want to go home, don't worry about me. We reached the office and found the last 2 seats to sit together. There was only one pen for both of us to record the data. Ankita said 'koi nahi' I'll share the pen I said you have started to talk like me. She said so I can't use the same words as you, you are a totally weird person and laughed.
We started recording data sharing the same pen. I was feeling like we were a caring couple looking out for each other. All this reminded me of a song that was playing in my head,
" Theri si yeh dhadkan meri, dekha tujhe toh chalne lagi.
Saanso ko mil gaya junnon, ab duniya meri badal ne lagi, Sunno sunno you're so beautiful."
We finished recording our data before time. So we sat there and she held my hand again we were sitting there holding hands And we are looking at each other, I laughed and said we are sitting like couples. Ankita said that looking at that side, the way the girl and the boy are holding hands, they are called couples. I am sitting holding on your hand as a friend and also because today you have come to the garden to find me, that means you are a trusted friend. keep talking and Lunchtime came and I wanted to smoke so I went down and had smoke after that when I came to sit with her. She recognised the smell and asked me you went down to smoke right? I said yes. She got upset and went somewhere else to sit. I realised that I shouldn't have smoked today she doesn't like it I hit myself in anger. Asking why Yuvraj why? So I sat there alone and I was getting bored now. If Ankita was here we would have talked so much. Sitting sitting, I am looking at Ankita and thinking about her. I looked up and prayed, Lord Krishna I have found my Radha I'm in love with her. Before logging out I went to her and apologised saying it won't happen again please forgive me. She accepted the apology and said it's okay you can smoke but please don't smoke in front of me I'm allergic to the smell. I said I'll stop smoking for you if you want. She said no you don't have to for someone like me. You are not just someone you're special you're my best friend it's the least I can do for you. Ankita said don't stop smoking but don't sit near me after smoking next time. I said ok it won't happen again.
We both logged out from our system and left the office together. Ankita told me don't smoke on my way home now too. I smiled and said don't worry I won't. I reached home and got into my thoughts. Today was a good day but it also went bad at some point all because of me. I wasn't able to sleep thinking if Ankita will come more closer to me I'll confess my feelings that I'm in love.
Next day,
Got up again late today and got ready for office as soon as I can, As soon as I came to the office, Ankita called me and started saying that come and sit soon. You are always late, it is very difficult for you to survive this seat. I said sorry next time it won't happen, Ankita said pay attention to work today, Today the team leader has given a target, I asked how much, she told 10 to follow up, even today the characters will not send the floor home early. I said ok let's focus on work today. I was bored while working, so I started disturbing Ankita, Ankita said do not disturb Yuvraj I have only done 2 follow ups so far, let me work, Then look at me and say that you come to the office to work only to pass the time. I said I have done 6 follow ups so far so am passing some time, 4 follow ups are left and 2 hours time is left, 2 hours is enough for me, 4 to complete the follow up. Ankita says in shock that even if 6 follow ups have happened, so soon then give me 4 or 5 follow ups too. I said ok I'll do it but don't tell anyone that I gave my leads to you, Ankita said ok done. I did my 10 lead generation and later made 6 lead generation for Ankita too. The team leader praised everyone, whose 10 leads were generated. Ankita became happy and said thank you to me, I said now you will say thank you to a friend, thank you and sorry do not work in friendship. Ankita said, still yet on one of my words, you gave me 6 lead generation, Here, if you see the team leader as your 16 lead generation, then only you will be praised in the office. i said i don't like to hear compliments.
Ankita said that you go to the top of my mind, it is difficult to understand you. I know. We got out and left the office, Ankita said while doing a handshake and came early tomorrow or someone else would sit by my side. I said ok bye, go home comfortably, from other side ok by yuvi. As soon as he reached home, I left the house after keeping the bag, went to the friends and they told what happened in the office today. Today, it seemed to friends to tell the full story of the office. Today was a good day and in vain because today there was so much work that I could not talk much to Ankita.
