I took my ride by bus. It was not that much cramped with pa.s.sengers which was a good sign. Suddenly Sky started chatting with me. It was the first time chatting in a bus. I usually don"t chat in the bus. Be it the most important of the messages. Not even my parents ones. I was super bored but he drove it away. We were chatting regarding the university roll numbers. We got one after another roll which made us one step closer. Then I reached home. I changed into my home dress. Grabbed some food and went to bed. There I lay with my phone . He was having difficulty regarding the form filling. He was asking whether the "Print " option was active or not. I tried it out first. It didn"t work for me. He got anxious. I was using my smartphone. He too was using the same. I finally replied either we need to go to the cafe or we need to attach the printer since no pdf is available. He all of a sudden gave me his another phone number. He had two phone numbers. One which contained the weibo another where a person can call. Due to some settings 2 cannot be in sync in one mobile. I was extremely happy and scared at same time. Happy that he trusts me. And scared at his request. He said, " Since, I am not always available in the weibo you can call me. If you get any updates call me up because I won"t be opening the account for the time being"I said, " Sure"
But my heart palpitated. I had never called up a boy of my same age before. I took calls from them but never became the initiator. That too first time for my crush. Already my heart races when I chat with him. But directly on mobile it was like a secret temptation or fear that haunted me.
I called up Lacy for the solution if she had any. She told me to use the Laptop so that the pdf maybe initiated and to take it in a pen drive.
I called up Sky. I was engrossed in hearing his ringtone. The ringtone was as if I was reading his heart. Although he has a jolly and happy aura maybe.. But the ringtone had made me dive into the unending ocean the lonely heart which needed to be cared , A heart filled with sorrow.
"h.e.l.lo, Sonnet any news"
I suddenly got a shock. I was a bit distracted.
I said, " Yea ah Yes. "
First time I heard his voice over phone. It was as if listening to a poets voice with birds chirping all around. My heart fleeting along with them. What I heard was his voice Or my heart pounding in sync with him. Whatever it is I am not sure
I said what Lacy said.
He replied, " Since this is the case, if I can"t do it today can you do it for me?"
I said, " I will try"
He said, " You know my pa.s.sword right? "
I said , " No".
He said to note down his pa.s.sword. Actually everyone"s pa.s.sword was their date of birth. May be It was G.o.d"s will that I got to know his birth date and he himself said that to me. He was 7 months younger than me. My heart bled thinking about that because as far as I know my parents would never allow such a person to date with me even if someday we truly come to love each other.
Then he finally said, " Don"t misuse my pa.s.sword "
I replied, " I am not you. Don"t place people in the same footing as yours. "
He t.i.ttered.
I smiled too. Maybe he didn"t feel it. But I felt his happiness.
Finally we bade each other goodbye .
I was thinking how my voice sounded over phone. Was it overbearing? Or was it a bit too mature?
But for him I took the initiative . His voice was already enough to make me struggle to stay at home.
At last the voice of my spring came. For many days I have been wishing to get his phone number. And today my wish was fulfilled.
At night he confirmed that Lacy"s method worked. And he said, " Thank you. You try it for yours."
I replied, " Sure"
He replied, " But it took most of the internet for one simple thing"
I replied, " it"s better rather than getting nothing "
He replied, " Okay,Bye "
I replied, " Bye"
He replied, " Of course, rather than anything after all it"s about exam"
Then he was offline.
I was happy to spend time with him even at home.
I went off to sleep early..
Seeking for my voice of spring in my Dreams...
