It was a mournful day for the college.Jack went to college for the two-minute silence prayer at 11:00 am.
Jack noticed that Elena and Drake were absent today. After prayer, Jack returned home directly.
It was summer day. The heat was unbearable and oppressive during the afternoon. Jack dragged his chair near the window of his room and perched on it. He was thinking how anyone could be so callous to the deceased, not attending the prayer for the departed soul.
Someone rang up his phone. It was Elena. He got surprised and thought, " Why is she calling me? "
He picked up the phone.
Jack said, " Hello, Elena. "
Elena said, " Sorry for disturbing you. Actually, today i couldn't attend the prayer because Drake met an accident this morning when we were coming to college. So, i was there with him in the hospital. I called you to ask if there is class tomorrow or not? "
" Yes. Tomorrow, we are supposed to attend the class. " Jack
Jack woke up on hearing a loud bang on the door. He felt tears in his eyes. He was literally crying while dreaming. He seemed attached with this dream.He got up from his bed and opened the door, Rohan was standing there with a wide smile on his face." Hey! Your eyes are swollen. You were crying now? Oh! You were missing me. Is it so? That's why you were crying? " Rohan saidJack knew his funny nature but he was not in mood to joke around.Jack replied, " I was not crying. I was sleeping and you always show up at wrong time. "Rohan asked, " Why are you scowling at me? "Jack angrily said, " Why did you lie to me yesterday that you wouldn't go college and handed his bag to me to return but you know very well that i don't like him. "" Actually after giving his bag to you, i remembered that i have to give presentation. That's why i went to college but you know so much issue was going in the college related to the murder. " Rohan told
Around five o'clock in the evening, Jack was drinking coffee. His mother came to him. She said, " Today we are invited in a birthday party of your father's friend's son. So, get ready. We will leave after an hour for the party." Jack said, " Mom, i am not in mood of attending any party. I want to stay at home." Jack's mother said, " We will return by afternoon tomorrow. Then how will you stay alone at home. " Jack said, " Mom, it's not a problem. I can stay alone. It's only a matter of one night only." Jack's mother said, " Okay. No problem, if you can stay alone. I will prepare your dinner and put it in refrigerator. But listen very carefully, don't open the gate if anyone comes in the night.under this condition only, we will allow you stay at home." Around seven o'clock, they left for the party. Jack closed the gate and came in his room. He opened his laptop and started surfing some sites. He was all alone in the home.
Jack was feeling overwhelmed today because finally after ten days, college was opened and he was going to meet Elena. He was on his way and it started raining suddenly. It was still half-way to reach the college but he was completely wet from head to toe. He was passing by a tall building. He heard someone calling his name. He looked from where the voice was heard. It was Drake, calling him from the balcony of his house. Drake said, " Jack, come inside. It's really raining hard. It seems it will take time to stop. Once it will stop, we will leave together for the college." Jack didn't want to go in his home. He hated him so much but there was no other choice left for him. He couldn't go college in his wet clothes and he was not willing to return home. He waited for a moment,being confused what to do? We went to his house. Drake came down and opened the door for him. Jack went inside. His house was so beautifully decorated with blood red roses only. Drake told him to
It was Sunday evening. Jack finished his snacks and he was about to go out for walk. Rosy came out from her room. She asked, " Jack, where are you going? It has been a long time since i go to the park. My friends do not go there. Can I join you today? Please, give me company." Jack said, " Okay. You get ready and come." Rosy and Jack went to the park. They were talking while walking. Jack bumped into Elena and Drake. Jack asked, " How did you guys here in this park? " Elena replied, " We come here for walk now and then. Anyways, who is she? " pointing finger towards Rosy, Elena asked. " She is Rosy, my sister. Rosy, meet my friends Elena and Drake." Jack introduced them. Rosy said, " Hello." Rosy and Drake looked at each other and gave a waggish smile to one another. Drake looked into Elena eyes and hinted something to her. Elena said, " Jack, i want to have some private conversation with you. Rosy, please don't
Jack had already decided to propose Elena today. Since she had accepted that Drake was just her friend and nothing else. So, he thought to confess his love otherwise someone else would it and he would lose her forever.He got ready for the college. His heart was beating fast just at the thought of proposing her. He came to have the breakfast." Jack, what's the matter? You're looking different today. Is there anything especial today?" his mom said." No mom, it's nothing." Jack said and looked at Rosy. She was smiling, hiding her face. Jack understood that Rosy must had told something to mom. He stared at her angrily. He finished his breakfast and moved out of his house for the college.He had already arranged bouquet of red roses for her and kept it in the canteen." I wish Drake may get absent today. " he thought and entered the classroom." Hi! Jack. " Elena waved her hand and came to him." Hello! How are you? " Jack said, looking
The day started out as any other day but Jack seemed more excited and happy than he would even been. His happiness was radiating off from his face.He never thought that he would get her love so easily. It was highly impressive when Elena took the initiative and asked him for the date. This was his first date and of course same for Elena too. Going on a first date was nerve wracking and he wanted to make a great first impression. His stomach was full of butterflies and it could be settled by a night out on the town with Elena. Rosy entered his room . She asked, " Jack, why are you so much excited today? " Jack said, " I and Elena are going out for our first date." Rosy said, " Oh. Really! Are you sure this is the first one? " Jack said, " Of course, i am very sure "Then what about that day in the park when she asked, ' Rosy, please don't mind if i ask you to give us some time all alone? " Rosy said with a teasing smile. Jack knew that s
Next day, it was sunday. So, there was no hustle to get up early in the morning. Jack woke up late and lazed around till 10 o'clock. Then, he got out of his bed, freshened up, took bath and went in the kitchen for breakfast. His mother had prepared his favourite dish for the special Sunday breakfast. He came to the dining table. He looked around, but he couldn't see Rosy. Jack asked his mother, " Where is Rosy? Is she still in her bed? " Mom said, " No, she woke up early in the morning and went to hospital. Her friend got injured and he is admitted there." Jack said, " Okay. You have any idea, when will she return? " Mom said, " May be in two hours." Jack thought, " What a co-incidence? Drake is also in the hospital and Rosy' s friend too. May be Drake would be the friend whom she went to meet in the hospital? " He finished his breakfast and switched on the t.v.He was restlessly waiting for her. " A blo
" Ding ding, the door bell had rang the second time within five minutes." " Have patience before ringing the door bell twice, i am a human who walks by foot, not a Superman who will fly and come to open the door." Jack was murmuring while going to open the door. He opened the door and saw it was Jenny, his childhood friend standing there. She said, " Oh! Really. You are a human?Is it so? " and bursted into laughter. Jack said, " What a surprise? After many days you've missed me." Jenny said, " Let me come inside first. I came here to meet uncle and aunty but not a liar like you. You are more liar than the devil." She entered the home and sat comfortably on the sofa. This was like her second home, familiar to everyone since her childhood. Jack asked, " What did i lie to you? First of all set up this. You can't blame me." Jenny said, " You already had a girlfriend but that day in the park, you said you don't have an
