I can't bear this old man's rambling anymore. I never paid attention to his blabbering facts about the progress the university is making or in the advancement it is making. I'm never interesting in this anyways. It's my dad again.
He's the one who started this university. I never knew why but he just did. I didn't have answers to many of his deeds. He was a man of a huge heart. As if it'd be useful anytime.
He also started the scholarship program for talented kids. Every year there would be a hundred students selected nationwide from any universities. They get hundred percent fee waver on both tution and hostel fee. Another way to waste money. I tried to stop it but I couldn't as the media didn't leave my back. It came to mom's notice and there! All my effort into ashes....
My eyes kept searching every person who filled the auditorium but where is she? She isn't there here. I had a strange feeling if I touched her pressure point........
Of course you did!
You reminded her dead mother!
What can I do? I want her eyes zeroed on me!
How will it be when someone asks you about your dead father?
That would be awful.
The same applies to her genius!
I just wish she's not sitting in a corner and crying. She looked too sensitive.
Maybe she is too sensitive!
Crap!
That's a point to be noted.
Curse you Anand! You let an innocent girl cry!
Wait!
Am I just dying for that girl? Why am I exactly dying for her?
Eh.... Maybe because she's beautiful?
Screw you!
Screw her!
And screw this stupid fest!
I can't think about that girl. I have to forget her! I've acted too childsh to catch her attention.
I've acted very rude too.....
You are rude to everyone Anand.
Thanks for reminding me.
I'm always at your service.
Not to forget following her, forgetting everything. I've acted like a teenage boy. She is good looking but that doesn't mean that I need to get crazy about her. I have many super models running behind me. What is she in front of them?
She's not equal to any of them for sure.
Whatever! Forget her and stay calm. Don't need to get crazy about her. You'll forget her when you walk out of the campus obviously.
Dream on......
I will forget her! I will never confront her and see her face...... Her beautiful face and her......
Whoa! How is thinking about her when they must forget?
Shut up already!
She's out of my system and that's final!
"Good morning everyone."
Shit it's her! I turned to confirm and drop dead! It is her!
So she's nervous about this? I turned completely to watch her speak. She went boldly without a stammer. Her confidence is radiating all over her face as she progressed. She looked much great.....
Here goes your decision to forget her.......
I will! After this. I kept looking at her. Stalking to be precise. Stalk is a bigger word to use. I'll just stick to looking. Her eyes moved to everyone in the auditorium, everyone other than me. Why is it that..... Wait, what am I thinking? I need not get crazy about her.
Get a hold on yourself Anand! She's not someone who'd agree to sleep with any random guy. Especially someone like me. I tried to concentrate on what she's speaking but it's all in vain when I look at her.
All my body is loosing it's control just like that. I never felt the need of any women, then why is it only her? God knows!
"Thank you." Thank goodness! She ended her speech. I can't stand another moment when she's around. I need to get out of here as soon as possible.
"Professor Reddy, I think I'd be leaving." His smile faded the moment he heard me.
"But sir it's just been an hour since your here." He said. Who are you to question me?
"I've got a message that I need to rush right now." I told him bluntly.
"In that case, we'll rush to your part." He said but I stopped him when he's about to get up.
"No, I don't think that's necessary." I told him.
"Of course it it! It's a rule set by your father that the founder of the Bhatia group must address the students." What? Speak when she's watching? It's obviously tempting but can I overcome my obsession? Hell with it! Let's give it a try? I'd be able to watch her eyeing me anyways.
"Fine, please rush it." I looked near the stage and thankfully she's not around.
I don't think I'm afraid of her. I'd rather call it stupidity.
Yes it's obviously that. I mean I'm this multibillionaire running behind a girl, an ordinary girl like her. Absolutely stupid! I spoke in several conferences and seminars around the world but suddenly I'm sweating. Yes, I'm sweating!
"We would like to welcome Mr. Anand Bhatia to come up and share his experiences with us.
Reddy spoke and I walked to the stage in a swift motion.
"Thank you Mr. Reddy." I spoke as he left the mike for me.
My eyes went around the crowd untill I locked my eyes with the one person. Her eyes widened and after a few seconds she held her head down. I couldn't help but smile at her although she wouldn't guess that it's for her.
"Good morning Bangalore institute of technology!"

Everyone cheered as he spoke. Is he really that famous? I should really keep in touch with the current issues.
"Who is he?" I nudged Guna. His eyes widened and he looked confused when I asked.
I just asked who he is, I didn't ask him if he's some random i***t.
"Don't tell me you don't know him." He said and I shook my head.
"You really don't know him?" He asked and I nodded in response.
"He's the Anand Bhatia. He owns the Bhatia firm. Son of Arjun Bhatia and Renuka Bhatia." My heart sunk to somewhere I didn't know when I heard him.
"Is he really?" I asked as I still couldn't believe what I just heard.
"Yes, girl now listen to what he's speaking. He's always been my inspiration. He is ruling the bussiness word within a span of an year. It is impossible isn't it?" I simply nodded.
I didn't tell them about my encounter. It didn't feel right to tell them about my encounter with him. I know that they'll freak out so, I didn't tell them but now when I know, I'm never going to tell then.
Why do I have the strange feeling that he's looking at me?
Probably because your an i***t?
I think he's mentally planning his revenge while speaking. Don't be stupid Akki, he wouldn't even remember your face! Hmm, what if he's feeling sorry? Must be that, but who cares for what he's thinking.
"I always believe in one line." He spoke and everyone were suddenly calm.
"Hard work with guts to try something extreme and determination along with dedication will let someone reach the summit. People kept telling me that I've done wonders in bussiness but I didn't." He said and paused.
"He's too humble to accept." Guna looked at him in aww. Is Guna gay?
Oh I'm being stupid now!
"I expanded what my father gave to me. I promise that some other time, when I talk to all of you. I'll proudly say that I've done wonders when I reach for my next target." He said eyeing me.
Oh, don't be stupid he's not eyeing you!
He's just looking at all the people around!
"It's has been great talking to all of you. I don't believe in luck as luck is just a lame excuse for people who loose. So, I won't wish you luck. Do all the best you could, putting all the effort you could to reach your goals and ambitions." The auditorium thundered with applause as he ended. People were rushing to his side to take his picture.
"I'll go and try my luck." Guna said.
"Me too!" Even Geetha? He's not fit to be admired to this extent. He's a jerk who loves to torment people.
I don't think I need to curse him to this extent. He must be in a rush and I must have mistook it? Yea, that would be true. He's indeed a busy man and who am I to judge him? He could be good too.
He obviously looks great like some kind of a model. No-one would believe that he's a multibillionaire if he wouldn't say that himself.
Anyways, I need to get to the robotic stall now.
