A scene

" ...'What is a drug ?' He remembers his teacher asking in the morning s class. He ponders for a moment and rephrases it : 'what not is a drug ?' Some ideas flashed through ... " Vikas stopped reading and checked his watch. The hands conveyed its 10. He couldn't stop thinking about her. Right from the moment when their eyes met in the class. It's been three days they were meeting and talking in free hours and lunch breaks. Now , he's obsessed with her. He was seeing her everywhere. Hearing her name everywhere. Thus despite being an atheist he started to believe in karmic connect. He got up , took his Lee pullover and started walking towards her house. He knew it way before , his curiosity made him found out. Though he's not a stalker. While doing all this , he seemed delirious. Started climbing pillars and then into her bedroom balcony. He slowly scrutinized the surrounding s. Thanks to the street light he found his leg wrapped in branches of the money plant. Recovering from it , he walked in. Going across her bed , he looked at the half opened novel , the same novel !which he was reading. His face wore a light smile. He sets the blanket right covering her feet which made her snuggle a bit. It Frightened Vikas and precipitated him for a moment. But she appeared to be in good sleep already. He lifts her palm takes the book out and places it on the shelf. For a moment he was lost looking at her. Now he understood. She was his drug. He started to leave and turned , right at that moment he felt his hand gripped. "I ve something to say" she whispers. And he felt something was being tied on his wrist. He whispers back " I know"... He turns only to find her with smile and then his heart started sink and with those words... " Happy Rakhi , Bhayya!!! " he fell down unconscious.....
The End
