My Secret Lovelife - Chapter 132
Mam and Sky both approved my dress. Next day I went to college with great expectations.
“Good morning Mam, I brought the dress. ”
“Good.Now let me check. ”
“Yes mam. ”
Mam took the dress and was checking it thoroughly.
“Ah! Sonnet see the rose is loose and it’s about to fall off. ”
“Oh! I didn’t even notice it. Thank you mam. ”
“This is the reason I always check the dresses before any performance. Be it for my daughter and son or for my students. Now tell me how are you gonna fix this. ”
“Mom is an expert in this. She will handle it. ”
“Good.And are you prepared for the exam? ”
I didn’t prepare much. But owing to her nature I’m pretty sure I’m gonna get a nice thrashing if I say no.
“Mam almost.”
“How much? ”
“Mam till Poisson distribution I’m fully prepared. ”
“Ok I will take your exam accordingly. ”
What the hell is happening? She is actually ready to reduce the chapter according to my preparation. May be God is repaying me for some of my past good deed.
“During the break time you will have your practice in front of the class. I will see to it personally. And after college hours you need to stay and perform in front of the teachers. ”
“Yes mam. ”
“Good,But Sonnet you can omit too much of formality. You know you are like my daughter. Try to speak your heart instead of firmly abiding to everything I say or the others say.I won’t say it’s bad. It’s really good and professional. But you know what I mean… ”
“Yes, I can understand.But mam it’s my habit from my previous school. Actually I really can’t change myself immediately but I will try. ”
“Good dear. Be prepared. ”
“Yes mam. ”
Now I was fidgeting. Thinking of how to face the crowd.
“Hey Sunny! ”
Oh my Gosh why is he shouting out this name at this time.
“Will you stop calling me that? ”
“Nope.I will haunt you! ”
“Good grief. Why were you calling me? ”
“I have something to show you will you come. ”
What will he show me? Wait didn’t I think of avoiding him. How can I think of going with him now?What am I doing? Am I growing crazy! But why do I fear ,mom knows about my feelings already.
“Yes.But where? ”
“Come”
“Ok”
I went with him. I was very happy initially, walking and chatting with him. Telling him about almost everything.Starting with the rehearsal in front of the class and the dress fixing and blabbering.It’s really surprising that I can’t hide almost anything from him. He gives me a sense of ease and comfort which I can’t even describe.
The weather was splendid.Leaves were falling and as if we were in a romantic date. He bent and picked up the leaf on my head and I picked up from his shoulder.
Ahh! First time touching a man’s shoulder.
I immediately pulled my hand though. But the feeling lingered.
Everything was smooth and in rhythm.
But wait the route is unknown to me. And we are walking for almost ten minutes. Moreover I have the rehearsal.
“Where are we going? ”
“Don’t you trust me anymore Sunny? ”
Those words stung me.. and he is right. I have always trusted him.I trust him. Yes I trust him.
“Yes… I mean.. no I trust you… ”
Oh Gosh! what am I even trying to say. Walking with him alone through a lonely route and I’m already hallucinating!
“Um .. To be honest I’m just curious. ”
“Ppft…Yeah you are just like a cat. ”
I glared at him. He laughed even more terribly.
“Hmph! ”
“Sorry sorry Well we are here. ”
“WoW the stage is wonderful! ”
“See It’s my idea. ”
“Yeah it’s stunning. ”
“You would be performing there tomorrow. ”
I smiled and said, “Yes.”
Wait a minute! If it’s the performance stage. That means it’s behind the college. And if it’s behind the college. It hardly takes one minute to reach. And since it hardly takes even a minute, that means…
I glared at Sky, “Skkkkkkyyyyy!!! You fooled me. ”
“And the funniest part is that you are realising it now! Ha ha ha. Great. ”
“Why did you take the longest route? ”
“Walking is good for health. ” and then softly”and I could spend more time with you. ”
“What! what did you whisper just now? ”
I clearly heard that but I needed to confirm his feelings towards me..
“Um.. nothing! So how was the surprise? ”
“Very bad. Not your decoration I mean… I mean the decoration is fantastic… But your route is really bad..”
But actually the route was very good to me as well. I could chat with him alone for more time. But I will pretend for now. But suddenly the fear I had disappeared I really needed a break, a walk with my lover, and a surprise to break it down.
I headed back with him. I sang in front of the entire class. Everything went fine. My hardwork during rehearsals finally paid off.Students clapped. Lacy cheered me loudly and mam shushed her. After that college teachers were amused in the auditorium. Everything was in decorum.. All the sorrows of my family life was balanced with the outside atmos of bliss.
Also Before Lacy left I had a chat with her and was getting ready with my part of script in her dramatic love life. She was telling me what to tell to aunt if she called me. She would be celebrating tomorrow with brother Henry after all. Another date and this time for a longer duration. Both of us needed to be careful.
I left college with Sky. For the first time we left together after the college got over for us since the practice days started. I discussed regarding the exam. He also had to partake that. And finally we parted. I reached home and as usual washed myself up had my minimal meal. I took the exam so did Sky. We both got full marks. It was a short mcq exam after all.
Mam reminded me to dress up beautifully for the fest and told me to practice even at home.
“I need perfection understood. ”
I typed, “I will try my best. ”
I practiced with my mom. She played the piano. I sang. She was ready with everything. And in short everything that perfect.
