I Wanna Stuck With You - Chapter 52
Jhummi washed her face and tried to avoid all her negative thoughts away, she wipes her face and went to sleep, her head was aching a little by crying, but she put a wet hanky on her eyes and try to sleep, approximately forty-five minutes later she falls asleep.
Neel came to Jhummi’s room at the night and saw she was sleeping with a tensed face, as he could see lines on her forehead and hanky on her eyes, he removed the hanky from her eyes, as it was soaked now, if he will put a wet hanky again on her eyes, probably she would awake, so he put the hanky aside and caressed her hair and switch off the light and went into his room. The next morning Jhummi woke up early, her head was still aching badly, she decides to go for a jogging, she went to the washroom and washed her face, she changed her clothes and wore her tracksuit, it was 5 in the morning, although Jhummi is lazy and sleepy still she loves a lot to watch the sunrise, she did jogging for one hour, she was feeling so breathless but she didn’t want to stop now, she loved the environment so much, there was not so many people in the park that time, she doesn’t like a rush, she like empty parks a lot. After that much jogging, she was feeling exhausted, she went home and take a shower, and got ready, she wore a red jumpsuit and flat red shoes, she went down and saw her mother and Neel are still sleeping, after that much jogging she was feeling so hungry so she decided to prepare breakfast for all, she went into the kitchen and check the fridge that what she could make, in half an hour she prepared scrambled eggs, and veg sandwiches with orange juice, she arranges the table and put all the dishes on the table, she felt someone’s presence behind her, she turned and saw her mother was standing there with a little smile on her face, “good morning mom”, said Jhummi and her mother replied with the same smile, ” are you, okay baby, you never woke up this early and today you made breakfast for us, it’s quite shocking”, said her mother and caress her with love, “I am fine mom, I went for jogging and felt so hungry, so I decided to prepare breakfast for all of us”, said Jhummi with a genuine smile on her face, she made sit her mother and served her breakfast, ” thank you so much baby, its amazing”, said her mother and both ate quietly.
There was still one hour left for her college so she went to her room for some rest, she remembers last night someone called her and heard her stupid cries, she opens her phone and put that number in the true caller, but she found nothing because truecaller was indicating a fake name, which was your well-wisher, she was thinking that she should call back or not, then she decided to not to call, she lies down on the bed, “I have some time for rest, I think I should take a nap”, Jhummi decided and closed her eyes. After some time she woke up and opened her eyes, she saw the clock and she screamed in irritation, it was nine and forty-five and she is late again, she slept more than two hours, she made a bun of her hair and quickly pick her bag and ran downstairs, ” mom where is Neel”, asked Jhummi and her mother smiled “his friend came to pick him, so he went with him, one hour ago”, said her mother, “why you didn’t wake me up”, asked Jhummi, ” because you were sleeping so peacefully and your head was aching too, so I didn’t interrupt your sleep, now you should go, you are late already”, said her mother and Jhummi again fist her head in frustration.
Jhummi’s phone beeped in her pocket, so she checked her phone, there were so many missed calls of Suhani and a message in her inbox, it came just one minute ago, she opened that message and her heart started beating so fast, the message was like, “you are so late, I am waiting for you outside, come fast”, this message was from the same number which called her last night, deep in her heart she knows who he could be, still she wants to confirm it so she said goodbye to her mother and ran outside, she saw at the corner of her street a black car was standing, she was hell surprised to see him here, she never expect it in her wildest dream, she was feeling amazing, she couldn’t believe that he was here to pick her, she slowly started walking in that direction and her phone again beeped with a message, “why your taking slow steps, i am not gonna eat you stupid, come fast”, Jhummi could hear his voice through to message, she was feeling thousands of butterflies in her whole body, she ran towards the car and he opened the door for her, she saw here and there by chance if anyone was watching her, and quickly sat inside.
“Hey, you are looking so pretty”, said Ayan looking directly into her eyes, “thanks”, said Jhummi with same intense, Jhummi put her hand on her head, “oh shit, I am so sorry, I forget to bring your dress, can you please wait for two minutes only, I will be back soon”, said Jhummi and tried to open the door, but it was not opening, she tried again but her efforts gone waste, “it is locked”, said Ayan and start the car, “but why, I will be back in just two minutes”, said Jhummi but Ayan cut him off, “there is no need to return that dress, please keep that dress, you look beyond beautiful in that dress”, said Ayan, “I just can not keep that dress Ayan, that dress is beautiful but it would be expensive I know and that was not for me at the first place”, said Jhummi, “but now that is yours, accept it as a gift, and now no more arguments please”, said Ayan and Jhummi become quite. Jhummi was staring at his hand as he was talking, she noticed that Ayan started wearing this black watch daily, “this watch is pretty”, said Jhummi and Ayan smiled, “ya I know, someone very special give it to me”, said Ayan and kissed the watch, Jhummi didn’t say anything, she just give him a weak smile.
As they reached college Jhummi instantly walked out from his car without even saying a thank you, Ayan noticed her weird behaviour as well, Jhummi just couldn’t understand that why she behaved this, even in her stupidity she forget to ask him that from where he had her number, but she decides she will not go with him now, nor she will talk to him.
