sounds good)


"Yeah,sure i'll be there."i said.


Posters are attached, they are quite colorful and catchy to the eye.How could he have done this, all in a day?May be he is a workaholic, i thought.


Most of the auditorium is filled.Half my classmates are here.I saw jyo helping rahul, to organize the list of auditing people.I searched frantically for raj.There he is standing in the middle of the dais, all hero like.


"Hey,need a hand?"i said.


"Where were you?Let's just start the audition."he said.


He announced,one after the other, each one came to the dais and began to play or sing.It is really a tiresome job, but i really like helping raj.Most of the people are good but not upto mark.It's 7.30, when the final list of the selected candidates was prepared.We announced, that it would be stuck to the notice board, by tomorrow morning.I slumped into the chair, jyo sat beside me feeling all exhausted.


"Let's grab something to eat."rahul said.


"You go on.I'll be there in a few minutes."raj said.


"What now?"rahul asked but left without a word with jyo in trail.


I sat beside raj and gingerly put my hands into his and squeezed it.He stared into my eyes.I stared at him back, he touched my cheeks and was rubbing it gently.I moved a little bit closer that's when i figured what i was about to do.I jerked away from him.


"Let's go,"i said.


He raised from his chair, confused of my reactions.We walked silently, into the parking lot.


We stopped at pizza corner and eat heartily but all the time raj was unnaturally silent.


Next day everyone was like, please let me into your band.I smiled and politely replied that i can't do anything now.Two of my class boys are in the finalized list.karan and arun.We are having a meeting, with all the selected participants on monday evening.


The other days have gone pretty quick, but our teachers were brutal, they loaded us with lots of work for this weekend.I wish, i could run a college where there will be no work,no exams and no projects.I invited jyo, to stay over on saturday


It took me whole sunday, to finish my work and raj has been quiet since the day from the auditorium except for that, he is dropping me and picking me up everyday from college and the few formal greetings that we have, there is not a word more.


I watched a horror movie on my tv after finishing thorough my assignments and drifted to sleep somewhere between the movie.


I was running through a dark passage and then a person appeared and caught me by the arm and was yanking me to a graveyard.That's when i started shrieking out loudly.I felt a hand on my shoulder and i am out of the nightmare, looking into a calm figure towering, over my bed.I clutched his arm frantically, like i used to hug my teddy.He sat by me and gave me some water to drink.I drank it in a single gulp and curled into a ball in my bed still holding onto his hands.


In the morning when i woke up raj was beside my bed sleeping in a couch.He looked almost like an angel,so quiet and deep in sleep.I walked over to him, i felt the urge of pressing my lips over his forehead.(Is it alright to have feelings like this?What am i thinking?I have gone mad)By the time i got dressed up, he left my room.


I looked forward to the meeting,we are going to have after our class hours.Every second seemed to be almost like an hour.As soon as the last hour is finished, i hurried into the hallway.


"Ash..."


"What now?i thought and turned to see our principal gesturing me to follow him.Can't he wait?What does he want now?Guess what? there is an inter college competition for talented and i'm to be the organizer for it in my college.It took him a whole hour to explain me, what all i should do and what are the various competitions listed.I was dumb ear to him, my mind was at auditorium.What are they doing?Was raj there?did he notice me missing?Will he be angry at me, for being late?At last our principal sighed, indicating that he was done talking.


I thanked him, for trusting me, on this work and i assured him that we'll win whatever the competitions were.I asked him for a voucher to fill in me with details.


"Hey,I'm sorry."i said to no one in particular, since everyone were busy with their instruments.


Raj noticed me coming and he turned away from me and he said "Now."


Was he angry with me?Why didn't he even talk to me?At the same moment, there was a roll drums and slowly music began to glide in the air and then a familiar crispy voice began singing.


Tell me why?


eyes seek you


Tell me y?


stammer words...


That's my song...Oh!god he really thinks, it's a good one, the other day, i just thought, he was being nice to me.He is gazing at me singing and playing the guitar.He is like a rock star.I am just staring at him, looking so tall, handsome and perfectly cool.The huge applause, brought me back from raj's world.He practically ran towards me.


"What do you think?"he said smiling.


"It's awesome.You are great, all in an hour?"i asked amazed.


"They are really good.It just took them a few minutes, to get the tune."he said.


"Oh!"


"Those lyrics did you write them?"someone shouted at us.


"Nope.It's not me."raj said.


"It's ash, she even sings well."raj added with a proud look.


There were gasps.See, they didn't expect me to be someone else rather than a barbie and i surprised them all.(Everyone except for jyo.She kind of guessed that a long time ago).


"I knew it,"karan added,"they are really good."


"Thanks,"i said embarrassed.


"Heart chides.how am i blind to the volcano of passion?Those are my favorite lines."he said.(Though karan is always my lab partner.We never spoke much, except for the subject matter.)


"Now,let's discuss the matter at hand?"raj said.


"We need to find a place for our practice.We can't have the auditorium for ourselves, everyday.The drama club and dance club are having similar hours of practice session here."he said.


Everyone was in deep thought.


"I know a place.I'll take you there tomorrow."i said.


"I guess the problem is solved?"karan asked winking at me.


"No,there is one more."he said.


"We need to name our band."he said.We all thought for a second."hardy boys"someone shouted.


"Nah.."raj said.


"pop kings."


"no"


"bad guys."


"NOOOOO"


"rock n rolla."


"no"


" wild crackers,"i said.


"Vote,"karan said.


"That's nice since we all are crazy for bringing it on."raj said.


"vote."raj added.


So our band name is, wild crackers.Raj was still being silent.What's the problem with him?Does he want to avoid me?May be he guessed, the feelings i have for him?What am i thinking what feelings do i have for him?Some part of me answered love.No,it wasn't, i shoved that word aside.It can't be.

Fine, if he gives me the silent treatment.He is all welcome.What does he think of himself?if he won't talk then why should i?may be, i should ask what's troubling him.After all, i promised mama and papa that i would make him feel home.


"Hey,good morning."i said all smiling.


"Good morning,"he said.


"What's your problem?why don't you talk to me?"i asked.


"Problem?i'm fine and aren't i speaking to you ,now?"he asked.


"Oh!please,"i said.


"I'm not having any problem, ash,"he said.


This time i got frustrated and shouted that he wasn't speaking to me the way, he did before.He suddenly flinched from touching my shoulders to console.I broke down suddenly into tears, he doesn't like me the way, i like him that's why he is keeping away.Now,i understand it all.My face would have betrayed my feelings to him.I wasn't a cry baby type, at all but something of him, made me like this.


He lowered on to his knees, in front of me.Raised my chin, to meet my gaze but my eyes were still watery from crying.


"I'm sorry,I have different feelings from that you have, so i thought, it's better to keep away from you."he started


(Oh!i know it please don't say it, i thought)


"The thing is when you flinched away from me in the auditorium that day,I knew that you don't like me the way, i like you.I'm really sorry for making you miserable.I can't stand seeing you like this."He caressed me and left me to think over.

What did he say?He thinks that i don't like him the way he likes me.What does that mean?As I realized how prejudiced we both were.I ran after him.He was standing by the car lost in thoughts obviously troubled one's.What should i say now?I was considering it in my mind.When he saw me and without a word, he embraced me in a bear hug and was crying

I LOVE YOU.......

Has there anything been so romantic?I mean, i have read romance novels, but this is different from reading, i have experienced it.When Raj was holding me tight, in his shoulders and was saying, That three words, i have ever dreamed of listening from him.I kissed him, on his both cheeks and whispered

I LOVE YOU TOO.....

You should have seen his face then, it's worth than anything in the world.He lifted me off the ground and was spinning me around.I cried with laughter.

Jyo was eying me, all the time ready to pounce on me, with questions, as to what has caused this happiness.I tried to ignore her but remember, it's jyo, she wouldn't give up easily.

"What's up?"jyo asked me.

"Oh!nothing."i replied keeping my eyes down.

Rahul saved me from any further interrogations from her.He said that he needs to have a word with her and so she stomped away from the class irritated since she didn't get a chance to get the answers out of my mouth.

After the class hours everyone of our band members have gathered near parking lot looking towards us.

"What are they doing here?"i whispered to jyo.

"Hm!don't you remember, you said that you will show us a place to practice."she said frustrated.

"Let's go,"i said.

"hey,don't say, that we need to practice at your home."rahul said.

"Yeah!it's not a good idea."raj said.

"It's not my home,keep on driving."i said.

I asked raj to stop at our home.I assured him that i don't want to have any disturbance in home, so i asked them to follow me, into the backyard.Jyo's face lit up, she might have guessed, where i'm taking them.

"Oh!ash, that is really a wonderful place to practcse."she said.

"Am i missing something?"raj whispered.

I winked at him and gestured him to follow.We passed by a garden of roses and then some croutons and then a small pool, with a small bridge over it.Everyone were really impressed by the garden, of course who wouldn't be?There's a small house on the
