Big B

Chapter - 3

Big B

Alia

I was still on my bed until 6 pm, dreaming of Pragya dii, then Tia, then moron to get surging an anger into me and then my new creepy friends, when my stomach growled signaling that I needed to eat. I ate to stop the rumbling of my stomach.

Then I called mumma and Papa and had on mama's take care lecture and papa's be cool hype.

Then, I logged to my sss account and updated the status :

'world is full of Jerks. '

Within five minutes, I needed to look at one of the comments :

'a**hole suits better. '

Of course, it was Tia. Several others suggested:

' f**k them! '

' hard! ' I commented back and wondered my tenacity.

It was 8:39 when I checked the time. So I decided to complete class assignment to write on why you endeavoured the course and chose English language as subject. It was 10:05 when I was finally satisfied by my essay.

My phone rang. It was unknown number. I restrained myself thinking who would call at this time but picked up.

''Hey, Alia. ''

Okay. It's Shruti but how she got my number? I thought.

'' Hi, Shruti. We haven't exchanged our numbers. How you got it, then? ''I asked.

'' Dhruv gave me. Don't ask me how he had it because I didn't bothered to ask him so. '' She told.

'' Okay. ''

" you know, boy thing. They gather much about someone whom they eye on. By the way Abhimanyu took my number at Cafe and we talked...so had Dhruv yours.''she chortled.

'' Stop that. ''

'' Fine .Anyways , you coming tomorrow , right? ''

'' Of course.''

''I thought you won't. ''

'' And what is it you think that way? ''

'' After what that Aditya Malhotra did to you today. You know, you ran and I saw your watery eyes. And then Dhruv told us what he saw. ''

'' Ohh. '' only I could say.

'' Take that easy, girl. Everyday someone falls, people laugh .Later nobody budges. And that was some sort of prank. Damn prankster! Don't worry. Just forget and chill!''

It would have been better if prank but I don't see it in any way. That Jerks smile speaks something else. In whole college, of everyone, he is after me.

''Okay.. '' I said, "anyway, Abhi called you. So how is it going? ''I changed the subject.

'' We talked a lot. I like that guy. His sense of humor is awesome. ''

'' Great. ''

'' Bay, I think... You would be glad if you knew something. ''

"What is it? "

" Dhruv has interest for you. He was talking about you the whole time and after today's incident, you know, learnt about AD, obviously for you. "

All nonsense. He wasn't my type. I didn't know why; but not he, I was sure of it.

'' What you mean? ''

'' All I mean is he is different with you. No offense, Abhi told me so.... Wait... Someone's calling me.. See ya tomorrow . Byee. ''

She hanged up and I said bye to myself.

What is with Shruti? Dhruv is different with you. He is nice guy and humorous.

Beep.

Beep.

unknown flashed in my screen.

Lot of unknowns today. Maybe someone from my group or Dhruv.

My eyes widened when I read the message. I had feelings that it was him.

'I read your status.'

'who are you?'

'you know me.

I too feel the same. '

' What? '

' f**k HARD the Jerks, thing. '

' And you're Jerk.'

'then, where should we meet? '

' what you mean? '

' I'm Jerk. So you gonna f**k me, right? '

' Go to hell and f**k yourself.

Swine! I threw my phone and it landed on the corner of bed with thud.

Beep.

Beep.

I didn't touch my phone. Switched off the lights and laid down on bed. Staring at the ceiling, I didn't know when I fell asleep.

Aditya's POV

I continued texting her but she didn't reply. Maybe she was not witty enough to reply. Or she ignored. The way she talked irritated me.

She had over confidence that I really couldn't digest. It would have been over in Park. Later I wouldn't had know her, no matter if she remembered me. I'd have done my dare and she would have long forgotten.

She wasn't enough good looking for me to keep her in head though she was cute. What was so unlikely was that she looked me in disgust. Unbelievable. It's first time in life we crossed and she gave me that look.

It wasn't like I have never been looked upon with disgust but atleast, those people knew me well or I had played them. It was nothing between us. How could I let that happen? She needed to learn the lesson, I taught her.

I again messaged her 'tonight through phone would do.'

She didn't reply. I had the head set on and I listened the old song's lyrics 'ladki h ya chadi h' while other songs went unnoticed.

Khambe jaisi khadi hai ladaki hai ya chhadi ha

(she is a girl or a straight pillar)

shola hai phooljhadi hai pattakhe ki ladi ha

(lava or the sparkling length of cracker)

aankhon mein ghussa hai labon pe gaali hai

(lips invective, eyes holds anger)

dekho jara dekhjo yaaron khudako samajhati hai kya

( just look out guys, what she just think of herself)

I imagined her in front of me looking straight to me, unblinking and determined not to blink.

"what's so amazing in your bed? "

My elder brother - Big B-

said stepping Inside. He is step but he is the only one I would always listen to. We had shared our worst and best together. Whenever I needed someone, he had always been there. He says me his 'baby boy'.

Sounds kinky. Right? But I am his baby boy. Unless he doesn't embarrass me by calling me that in front of my friends. Though he had done that.

"what? "

" yes. What? Which makes you smile this way. "

" oh, I pictured a girl I crossed today listening this. " I put other head set in his ear. Then I gathered his words.

" what you mean by 'smiling this way'? "

" it means that you were smiling like you were imagining someone special. " he teased, poking my elbow.

" her. She is nothing more to imagine. Kanika is thousand times better than her. "

He frowned." then why are you thinking of her if she's nothing, i***t "

" because she is arrogant, stupid and overconfident, i***t ."

Idiot. I call him in his mouth. He too do so. I am just six and half years smaller than him, of course, which is not just. We have this kind of relation but. We love each other that much that I hate dad. Mom, I really don't care about her. She's step. She too never had anything much for me.

We are living under same roof without passing words. Dad had always fulfilled her part, giving me daily basis lecture, and me making faces at bhai and poking out tounge when he eye me to be respectful to dad.

I can't so I don't.

"So she offended you, as per you. " he said shifting and laying on bed.

" Yes , she did. In all respect. " I tried making if she offended. Yes she offended me by looking at me in disgust.

" How did she offend you though? "

" I don't like her. She's little bogus, first year. Stupid. I lost my dare because of her. "

" So this way you you welcomed her. Who is she? And what is that dare? "

"Alia Sharma. we were in Park enjoying..kanika and Akash challenged me to kiss any girl I have never known, when Rishabh saw her and... " he interrupted me sitting on bed. He looked pissed.

"Such a nuisance. What kind of dare is this? You offended her . How could you? I swear you have the symbolic sculpture still in. " He checked my both cheeck finding nothing. How could he see when It didn't happen? Well, what would have happened if I really kissed her? I yanked his hand from my face for he was checking down.

" I told you, I lost. She looked me in disgust when she is unbelievable creature. How could she? Well I taught her, though. "

" What you did? " He eyed suspiciously.

" I tripped her in Cafe. She would never induce me now. "

I felt good now. But there when I saw her watery eyes I felt bad. Still then she didn't drop her eye but they were not like earlier. They were asking the reasons behind this. I really didn't know what it was with me. I just didn't like her until evening when I got to know her name. That justified! She judged me and I tripped her.

"That's insane. You are to say sorry to her tomorrow. " He ordered me.

" I will not! And why you always have to take others side. " yes, he always did that. But now I wasn't so annoyed than when he took dad's side, though not in front of him which was plus point but he wronged me anyway.

" I promote fair. And in this you're not being fair. "

" Alright , you win. But I ain't saying sorry. "

" At least don't go nagging her, you molester. "

" I won't bother to look at her. No matter whatever she post and talk around. " I scoffed.

" Good. It's late. You need to sleep. Good night sinner. "With this he turned off the lights. Why he has be to fatherly like. One is enough. I just need sweet brother.

" worst night. Baddest dreams to you." I said to him.

" Well I am not the one fearing ghosts-the creeping creatures. Lookout they may not lurk around your bed or slip beside YOU! "

" I don't fear. " I said to myself. It was very long before I feared and he was one to make me at ease. But I looked around to imagine things out of shadow. Lose that. No such don't things exist. Thinking this way comforts. Try it, you will see.

* * * * *

Next morning, I found everyone on the dining table. That was really not so frequent thing.

How could they manage today this?

"Glad your morning began early today. Good morning. " Dad greeted me.

" Good morning bhai. Morning mom. "I sat beside bhai while mom was seated in front of him across the table and dad at centre. Actually, this was the usual arrangement.

" Morning beta. " Mom replied. Bhai nodded and smiled.

"What today?" I looked for breakfast.

"No Junk. Healthy. " Dad said .

I really don't die for junk.

" Okay. " I didn't wanted to heat up the conversation. Why he always had to be this way? Still bhai said that I speak better and act properly, baking me sarcastic. I didn't had any idea how this.

" Dad, it's Adi's menu today. He wanted gajar ka halwa ( carrot desert) today. " I didn't needed defending. But he was caring.

" Good to change taste. " dad spoke.

Stop it or I am leaving. God helped for dad's phone rang and he went. Good.

Mom has nothing to do with anything relating me. So she kept silence which she broke then.

" Sambhav, what's about Malik and son's deal? . "

Bhai took care of mom's business of products design, manufacture and sell-Mehra group of companies. Mom's late husband's benefact left for her only son.

" Mom, we will close the deal by Monday. We are working on to decrease the product's drawback. "

" Ok. You must have met shyla. "

Mom was trying hard to screw him to someone in bhai' context . She had the list of girls to meet and already met. But I knew who he was after. His college crush Maya Maheswari, a budding fashion designer, only hadn't created noticing milestone being middle class to have resource to get investors for her company.

Bhai had been persuasive to her to invest but I don't know what her problem was in that. Girls had six sense to feel things. Maybe she didn't liked bhai. She would be unlucky to not have him.
