LESSON 4

As usual i woke up at ten. Getting ready to do my work took me about an hour. I took my lunch with me to the computer room. I was very work oriented person. Didn't wanted to waste my time. So, I started to do my work-chatting. Switched on my P.C. and signed into the messenger. Begining wasn't good. I didn't have anyone of my friends online. I expected Nida to come online. A little bit frustated, I thought i can wait for her.

So, i started doing everything else which I can do on the internet. I love to read interesting blogs-science and all. I was reading one blog mentioning that carbonmonooxide can help asthma patients!!!!! I said to myself ," what the hell. How can a bloody poison help the patients of asthma!!!!! Lets read on." It took me about 3 hours to go through the blog and checking about the information. Then i suddenly remembered about my job. But to my surprise, Nida wasn't online still. Now i started to think,' she has a problem. Otherwise she would have talked to me.'

I still waited for many hours. But it was the limit. I just left some offline messages to her stating that she should have come or should have told me. I was very frustated at what i have been doing all day. Out of frustation i just switched off my computer without shutting down. I was just soooo angry. But i didn't find any reason of being angry. I just went to sleep and waited for anyone to call me to have food.

'Parth!!', my father yelled.'Come lets have dinner.' His language was always good but I suspected he didn't mean anything what he said to me. I didn't say anything-opened the door-and just went to the dining table-took my food-started watching T.V. This was my daily ruitine, so my parents were used to it. And in real I didn't care what they felt. They haven't been with me. To make it simpler they sent me to a boarding school.

I just thought about Nida and ate my food. I was still confused why she wasn't online. I said to myself,' I will ask her tommorrow.' And my father opened his mouth," we have to go the party Mr. Gupta are organising tommorrow." I just thanked god for doing all bad to me again. I was more frustated now.

'Wow!!! This HAD to happen to me.'

LESSON 3

"What are you doing Nida??", screamed Rafique, Nida's elder brother."This chatterbox father brought you is just a waste of time, nothing innovative in it. Just no use and still you want to use this and talk all the bullshit you can." By this time it was clear to Nida that his brother was asusual angry on her again. She was used to it.
She said sarcastically,"Anything special bhai jaan??? ya fir aap hame fir se daantne aye hain????(or if you are hear again to scold me)"
The look on Rafique's face was enough to freighten anyone, but Nida had been used to it and Rafique knew it wont cause anything to happen now. So, he said, " Abba is calling you."
"for what?"
"mujhe nahi pata(i dont know)"
"ok."
"what ok??? go NOW" He stressed the word now and she knew something important is there. She went to her father.
Her father was a businessman. Infact a successful businessman. He loved his children and knew he hasn't given much time to them. Rafique was by now 34 but still unmarried. May be it was because of his nature that no one was willing to be with him.
Mr.Hussain was sitting on his sheesham chair. Sheesham is a very good wood.
Now lets get to the point......

"Papa. what do you call me for???" asked Nida.

"Beta. I wanted to talk something serious."

" Say papa."

"Now that you have completed your studies, i think you should..............."

Nida interuppted," I am not listening to this again."

"Nida you have to."

"Rafique is elder than me. Get him married first."

"He ain't getting anyone to get married and you have to listen to me now because when you did what you wanted you know what happened. That bloody Raja....that was your choice.....and what happened??? He just left you when he didnt need you. Remember what he said when I called him back?? 'I am just bored of your daughter'...and still you want to do what your heart says???"

Nida was helpless now but still she was inteligent enough.

"ok. You choose anyone but let me make the final decision . please...."

Nida knew that 'please' was enough for her father.

"Ok."

LESSON 2

'Parth!!!'
'Wake up. Wake up now. Your test is at 9 and its already 8:30.', screamed my mother- Mrs. Bharti Sharma. She had been working before her marriage and now is a senior lawyer in the high court.
'I am up. Just leave me.' I virtually howled. I wasnt happy about the test. More of it because I didn't wanted to wake up so early. But offcourse I didn't study for the test. I got used to facing the failure in these test. I wished they wouldn't be on the sundays so that i wouldn't go and there would be no one to make me go. But i thought it was better as they were about once in 2 weeks, so i didn't waste all my sundays. But I had to give the tests because my parents did want me to. I thought "What's the point in giving tests without preparation?" But still who cares.

So somehow I was there at the examination hall in time. I mean just 15 minutes late. But from my point of view I was 15 minutes early as they allowed people to enter 30 minutes late. But still who cares.

I gave the test. I knew what was the result. I was half asleep during the test. But still I was confident what marks I'll get. I would have to forgive the teachers........again. I don't know why they want to play with a childs future. They said I dont have a future. WHATEVER......

So I came back-went straight to my room-started my P.C. But not to my surprise my father came behind me. 'Whats going to be the score this time?' I didnt answer and he went away. I had not been talking to him since my 12th grade result. I wasn't happy to hear that I wouldn't be getting a laptop, so I told him not to talk to me. And as he isnt at home most of the time it favours me.

So lets check who is online. Its Nida only Nida. We both are the only persons who knew how to respect each other. Or better said "How to understand each other". She wouldn't ask for the test marks. And I wouldnt ask her about her ex- boyfriend. It was a done deal. We both loved to talk to each other. She was 22 and i was just 18, but age didnt matter. We were kind of made to understand each other. So i started to chat with her.

"Hi"

"hello. hows u parth?"

" u know how i m. i just came after giving that bloody test."

"lolz"

"dont laugh.....i m not happy"

" ok ok srry yaar"

" i was waiting for u."

"i know it"

"oh shit my brother is comin. i gtg. bubye catch u later. take care. muaah:)"

Dang!!! This is going to be another of those bad days.

LESSON 1

Its morning now. A beautiful morning. As beautiful as it gets at around 10:00 am. So, as usual, Parth wakes up(in a shock offcourse). But he is glad that he missed his classes. Parents have admitted him in a coaching institute for the preparation of IIT-JEE. But he was a rare customer there. Rare here means whenever he goes to attend classes most people think of him as a new addmission. Thats why he doesnt have friends there and that is why he doesnt like to go there. All his school friends have either got in to good colleges or into bad colleges as Parth thought of them. But our Parth didnt got good colleges and didnt wanted to go into the so called bad colleges. So his parents sent him for this very coaching institute putting there well earned money into his fees. But who are they to govern him, anyways they also dont have time for there kid. Did i say KID???? Oh! I am so sorry becouse he is no more a kid. He is an adult now.
Lets leave the story to him.

..........................................................

'Ahhhhh!!! no one's there.I am lonely and free. Lets see whose online. This bloody computer just takes a lot of time. Ok!!', i said to myself. 'So Nida is online! lets talk.' I said typing "Hi".
The reply came "hows u?". And we talked to each other for about 2 or may be 3 hrs. I was just passing my time moreover on the internet, talking to this girl she said was from Delhi. She looked sweet. Atleast for the internet. Because whatever internet shows maximum times its not right. But still you never know. But i just passed my time because i didnt have anything else to do. We knew each other very well. I told her how i am feddup of my coaching and she told me how she was feddup of her elder brother who kept eye on her wherever she went and more issues concerning both our family.
Then I said "bubye" and went to the bathroom for the natures call. Oh what a funny name given to peeing. I wished i had a laptop so that i would be able to chat in the bathroom too. But my parents wont let that happen even if they have a lot of money. I dont know what they want to do of that money other than spending it on there only child i.e me. They can spent it on that bloody institute which there son doesnt want but they cannot spend it on a laptop which i always have wanted.

PROLOGUE

'What is happening to me?' thought Parth. 'How can i feel love for someone i havent seen yet?
God save me!'
Just as he logged off his messenger, he was feeling something unusual. He was caring for someone he haven't met as if he knew her from a long time. He was'nt soooo careful to his own people. Finally he arrived at a decision. A decision that could rock two lives or even more...........
