Please read part – 1 here.
‘What are you doing? Copying is not good in any case.’ Shankar started screaming.
We were in front of the Fresher’s Building. Our Mid Exam would start in another half an hour. I was busy writing slips and he was busy revising the already completed lessons. I couldn’t understand why people waste time studying when there were better ways of scoring good percentage. People are just cowards.
The exam started. I couldn’t believe that I knew the answer for one question. I started writing.
After 10-15 minutes, the invigilator came near to me and took out a paper on my bench. I was shivering. He read the contents of the paper and said, ‘Get out.’
rest of the part - 2 here.

This is Aparna. Oops… Sorry… This is Shekar. Yeah… you guessed right. I’m in love with her and this is her love story. By ‘her love’ story, I truly mean that its just her love story… not mine!!!
Great love stories start with the first meeting. But this great love story, I feel comfortable if ‘great’ and ‘love’ are missing in it… Okay, where am I? Yes… this great love story starts with the BREAK-UP.
I start this story with their break-up coz of the very obvious reason…
I don’t just love her…
But I love her break up too…
* * *
‘Most of the creative people are emotionally driven.’ She started her break up speech.
I looked at her giving a hint that she was going too poetic. She understood.
We were sitting in the canteen. He was sitting opposite to her while I was sitting next to her. I could feel that he was not comfortable with my presence.
‘They also say that two intelligent people can’t live a happy life together.’ She started again.
What did she say? May be… it doesn’t apply to me.
‘It’s been wonderful time spent with you excluding the last two months. Thanks for everything.’ She finished.
‘Not a problem.’ He said and left.
She was upset.
What a chance for me!!!
I don’t know why but I feel the moment to be a romantic one.
I have been waiting for this moment to come since a year.
I’ve tried all possible ways to separate them.

Two hours before watching the movie ‘Khaleja’ …
‘Let’s go for Khaleja movie.’ I asked my roommate.
‘No dude. I’m not going to watch any other movie before watching Robo.’ He said firmly.
‘Okay.. Guess I need to go alone… ‘ I thought and started from room.
I took out my phone and called Mrutyunjay. I got to know that he was in Bangalore. I have been calling him since morning. I really wanted to meet him.
It was the 5th call made to his number and no response.
Ever since the release of the movie, I really looked forward to watch it. But due to various reasons, I could not make it and I really did not want to miss it that day.
Innovative Multiplex,
Marathalli,
Bengaluru
It was the worst multiplex I’ve ever seen. It was around 5O’clock when I reached the multiplex. There was a white board in front of the theatre with the show timings.
Khaleja -- 2pm …. 4pm
I was disappointed.
‘I guess I need to go home and download the TCRip I found in tollytorrents.com.’ I thought.
I was going back when I suddenly heard someone asking at the counter.
‘Khaleja movie 7 pm show .. 2 tickets’
I was shocked. I immediately asked about it at the counter and the boy said that there was a show at 7pm too.
‘Give me a ticket then.’ I asked him immediately.
I got the ticket for 7pm show. One and half hour more to spend. Not knowing what to do, I went inside the theater and sat at a coffee table. I ordered for a cappuccino and called home. I was talking on phone when I suddenly saw a familiar face coming out from the opposite shop. I looked at him for quite a few seconds and he was Mrutyunjay.
It was really surprising to see him there. I waved at him and he recognized me too.
I’ve seen him nearly after an year.
What a coincidence!!!
* * *
There was a dialogue in Khaleja movie :
‘If you wish for something with a pure heart, it’ll happen and you are the god.’
Then I realised:
‘Yeah.. I’m the God…’
I wanted to meet him.
I had gone to movie even though my roommate hadn’t turned up.
I got the tickets at the last moment.
I sat at the coffee table and I saw him almost the same time. Just a few minutes delay would have made us not to bump on each other.
Everything happened just because I wished to meet him.

Lol… I’m the God.. and I don’t believe in God…

A story I’ve written for a magazine few months ago…
I was at the sixth floor of my hostel. It was almost midnight. By this time, most of the people might not be sleeping. But majority of them might be trying hard to sleep. We get up at 5 in the morning and sleep at 10 in the night. And, the rest of our lives just revolve around EAMCET, IIT and BITS. It’s been one year since I came to this place and I need to be here for another year. May be, I need to stay here for longer duration because I’d already failed in two subjects and I wasn’t sure whether I’d pass all the subjects in the second year. I was sure that I wouldn’t be in Engineering and that reason was enough for me to end my life. That was why I was at the terrace of my hostel.
One step ahead will end my life. How simple is Death!! But it takes lot of courage for that one simple step. After struggling hard for about 5-10 minutes, I finally decided to step ahead. And like hell lot of other stories, someone stopped me from doing it. When I looked back, I could see an old man smiling at me. He looked calm and his smile was awesome.
“Congratulations!” he said offering me a warm handshake.
“For?” I said rejecting the handshake.
“Because you’ve got few more minutes to live in this world. Congratulations for the bonus life!!” he said smiling at me.
“This is not the time for jokes. And, who are you?” I asked. I asked him because I’ve never seen him before.
“I am being called as God.” He said.
“So, are you God?” I asked with a bit of sarcasm.
“If that’s the name with which you wish to call me, then I’m the God.”
“I can’t argue with you. If you have anything to say to me, then do it and go away.”
“I don’t have anything to tell you. But I know that you have something to tell me,” he said.
“I don’t have anything to share with a stranger,” I said and turned around. I tried jumping from the building but surprisingly, I couldn’t do it. Some force was stopping me from doing it.
“You can’t do it. I already told you that you have got a bonus life,” he said.
“Okay. Tell me… what do you want me to tell you?”
“Why are you doing this?”
“I want to die because I don’t have anything to do here in this world. I failed in two subjects. My father went bankrupt. My mother doesn’t love me anymore. My girl friend left me. I don’t even have friends. If you were in my place, you would have done the same thing,” I said. I did not know why I told him all these things.
He was just listening to it. I continued:
“If I were you, I would have been sleeping by now.” He told me.
“If I were you, I would have saved people from suffering.” I screamed.
There was no reaction in His face.
“Happiness without suffering is same as mere suffering. Success without failure is just the same as failure. After all, how do you differentiate success from failure if you haven’t faced failure in your life? You don’t know what’s in store for you tomorrow. You’ll get a call from your girlfriend in 5 minutes. And in the sixth minute, you’ll regret for what you are doing now.” He said and disappeared.
There was none at the terrace and I was nervous. And suddenly, my phone rang. I took my phone out of my pocket and it was from her.
“Hello!” I said.
“I’m Sorry… and I Love you…” she said.
I couldn’t understand what was going on. I started searching for Him but couldn’t find him. I felt like God has finally granted me happiness. I was about to tell her that I love you when I suddenly realized that I was on the edge of the wall in the terrace and I got slipped.
“What God! Why are you doing this to me?” I screamed. I was in the mid air on my way to the ground. Falling from sixth floor will guarantee you with death. After few seconds of travel, I finally fell on ground. With blurred vision, I could see Him.
“Thus ends your bonus life!” He said.
“God… I want to live” I said.
He did not answer me. Slowly, my eyes were getting closed…
* * *
I got up from my bed. I looked around. My roommates were sleeping.
“What a dream!” I said to myself.
I looked at the letter I’ve written few hours back. I read it again and threw it into the dustbin and said, “Thanks a lot, God…”

R K Narayan
Of all the books I’ve read so far (though the number is very small), I feel the books of R K Narayan are the best. It might be because of the book Swami And Friends. I really enjoyed reading every word in the novel. Till now, I’ve been reading novels of the nature ‘Pulp Fiction’ and my favourite author was Chetan Bhagat and he was the one who influenced my style of writing. But after reading R K Narayan’s literature, I realised that I’ve been reading the B-Grade novels. I’m not criticising CB or his novels but obviously these are not the novels one should read except for just entertainment and nothing else.
I was just browsing through the titles in Crossword when I saw this book ‘The Magic Of Malgudi’. ‘Why did I miss reading R K Narayan’s books?’, I thought and I immediately bought this book as it is a compilation of three novels by R K Narayan.
Then, I realised that it was easy to write like Chetan Bhagat but it was not easy to write like R K Narayan ( write like .. doesn’t mean ‘copy’).
P.S.: Will be reading Hitler’s Mein Kampf this week. Expect a review on it in the coming weeks. Expect an article of about 1000 words.

‘Do..Mo..Co..Co..Mo..Do…Mo…Co….’
I looked at my phone screen. A call from an unknown number.
‘H..e..l…l…o…. ‘, I said in a not-so-interested-in-call voice.
‘I Love You…’, I heard her voice.
‘… and.. Happy Birthday’, she continued.

One Year Ago…
I saw her on the first day of my Engineering. I fell in love with her the moment I saw her. Name : Shruthi
Place : Visakhapatnam
… and
Phone : 9030183800
Got an SMS from my friend. We call him The BBC.
I’m In Love With Her…
I immediately sent an SMS to all my class.
And the next second, I took out my phone and dialed her number…
‘Hello!’ She lifted the call.
‘Hi, Shruthi… This is Srikanth. I’m in Love With You…’ I said.
She ended the call.
Your last call charge : 0.05Rs
‘Thanks DoCoMo. My first proposal costs just 5 paisa…’ I thought.
‘I Love You.. ‘ I told her after the Electrical Machines class.
She did not say anything.
I have been after her since 9 months. In those 9 months, I haven’t even heard her speaking. She did not respond to me at all. I have been thinking about her day and night. I could not even concentrate on my studies. I failed in 4 out of 6 subjects in the semester. Life seemed to be nothing without her. I was getting frustrated with life day by day.
* * *
I opened up the browser of my new One-Touch Phone and typed google.com.
I googled for ‘Suicide Poison’ and have gone through few websites.
In an hour, I finally could get a poisonous drink. I was about to drink it when I heard the ringtone of my Alcatel One-touch Phone.
“Do..Co…Mo…Co…Mo…”
‘H..e..l…l…o…. ‘, I said in a not-so-interested-in-call voice.
‘I Love You…’, I heard her voice.
‘… and.. Happy Birthday’, she continued.
