3WW:-Judge, Nightfall, Safety

All packing was done. I was all set to go. Just few more things and everything will be all set.


I was really excited to go to the hostel as it wasn't my school hostel once again. It was college hostel and on the top of everything, new place, new friends, new environment. I wasn't nervous  as always. I was really happy.


There was only one thing which was I was worrying about. Due to safety reasons cell phones were not allowed in hostel.


"Damn, now how am I going to call someone and talk? Okay, lets get it straight, The One." I was thinking but could not see any way. 


It was been 3 months since we were talking to each other and it was really too less to Judge someone and if I would have, it would have been a mistake. 


As soon as the nightfall was approaching, my heart beats increased as I was supposed to travel over night and Mom-Dad were coming with me to set me up at new place. 


I was looking at the phone over and over like in every next second. 


"Can't he give me a call? Doesn't he know I am leaving today? How am I going to talk to him? What if the system would be so strict and I wont be able to talk to him?" lots of things kept creeping in my mind.


"Are you expecting some call, beta?" It was Dad.


Suddenly I came back in reality. "No, none Dad. I was just thinking if I have noted all the no.'s in my diary." I said smiling. 


I hated myself for being such an idiot. Why do I have to act so desperate?


"Why should I only bother? Let it be. Now I also wont call him. Who cares anyways." tough I was feeling really bad but I had no option but to console myself. 


"Everything's done? Have you packed your stuff completely?" Mom asked giving me packets of food. 


"Yeah." I said.


"What is wrong? Is everything okay? Why you look upset?" Mom was inquiring.


"Haan, No nothing. May be just because I am going to hostel, leaving everythingl here. I'll miss you all." I made a sad face to prove my words even tough it was a white lie.


"Well, as far as I know you, I really don't think you would be upset about it." Mom looked at me having a deep wrinkle in her eyebrows.


I gave her a look which meant "Mom, please don't start."


"No, I am just saying. May be it can happen with you but trust me, its really rare.." She smiled and left to get me more food packets.


I hated him more, because of him I behaved this way to Mom. 


Oh!! Again I started thinking about him.


Anyways there was no sign of any call now and I lost all my hope. 


It was all done now and we were all set to go.


The bell rang and I almost ran towards the phone. Heights of my bad luck Dad already picked up the call and had cut that off saying "Wrong number".


"Who was it" I asked Dad controlling my breathe so hard.


"Wrong number beta. Some guy was asking about someone named Ankur." He replied leaving me back feeling like smashing the phone on the floor.


It was him. I stood there still looking at the phone.


"Lets Go, Car has come." Dad called to go.


Leaving everything behind I left, to a new place. To get to know what fate has stored for me ahead.
