I was waiting for everyones arrival. I was not in my right mind otherwise I would have called them to come.I could not think clearly.I ran that device over and over again to make sure everything was right. The first one I wanted to call is Rayan but I called my teacher first. I don't know why my conversation with my teacher yesterday came to my mind. So I decided to call my teacher. My teacher arrived shortly after calling him.When he saw everything he was so happy. He told me,"Do you know when a teacher is the happiest person in the world?"
"When a student supresses him.You taught me that, teacher."
"Yeah. Aayat you proved that I was not wrong taking you as my favourite student. I am old now. I will die soon . But you will keep my name as student. I can die peacefully now,my child."
"Teacher ,why are you talking about death all of a sudden? Isn't it a happy ocassion?"
"Hahaha.....alright I won't talk about it. When everyone comes complete the rest of the work. We have to disclose our research as soon as possible. Keep my words in mind."
"I will."
I saw him walking to his chamber slowly. He is like a father to me. That time I wanted to embrace him like a daughter would. I know deep in his heart I am his daughter too. But I didn't do that. Later I asked myself why I didn't do that . Was I too excited? I don't know. My heart was feeling something wrong then .
" Why he talked about death suddenly and why do we have to diclose our research asap? He is not a person who loves fame." I thought myself.
"Aayat ,life is short. So live it fully. Never rush anything." That's what he taught me. So why now?
When Everyone arrived I told them the good news. Everyone was happy. They were relieved. "Now we can take a vacation.", I bet everyone thought that at the same time ,me too. But Rayan didn't come. While everyone was working I took some time to call him.
"Rayan! why didn't you come today? Do you know what happened?"
"Yes, Proffesor Ros called me."
Teacher called him? Why? He didn't call anyone but called Rayan?
"What did he tell you?"
"He told me that he completed the work. In a week he will disclose it."
I was shocked to hear his words. Teacher didn't mention me.There is no way he will take my credit. I looked at the pendrive that my teacher gave me. I did it unconsciously. Why ?Why did he hide my name from Rayan?He will know it soon .At least I will tell him.Moreover he told me to publish it. Then why he told him that he would publish it? I was lost in my thoughts again. Rayan was calling my name cause I wasn't replying.
"Aayat, are you here?"
I came back to my senses. "Umm...Yeah. By the way why didn't you come today?"
"I have something to do. I will call you later."
He hung up the call. He didn't sound as excited as he should be.What's wrong? I looked at the pendrive again.
"Am I being too wary?May be he really has some problems."
I explained to myself. But there was an uncomfortable feeling in my heart that I could not get rid of.
