The BreakUp
Tanya Breaks Up
It was out in the playground of the school where both Tanya had called Khushi to talk.
Khushi
What?? You want to break up with him? Why?
Tanya
We're not good together.
Khushi
Seriously? And who told you that?
Tanya
My family astro. He said, if I didn't stop seeing my boyfriend he is going to cheat on me constantly.
Khushi
Tanya, you know Danish right? He's like the sweetest guy alive on earth.
Khushi
How can he cheat on you? He loves you. and just by the way. He did not do anything of that sort right now so, why are you breaking up now?
Tanya
So, you mean to say that I should just sit and wait for him to cheat on me, so that my heart could not bear that pain?
Khushi
I didn't mean that, Tanya but how is it Danish's fault? Isn't this really unfair to him?
Tanya
I don't know. And then Khushi, what's done is done. Just stop trying to talk me out of this. I will not change my mind.
Tanya didn't want to listen any further and storms off from the playground in a direction which was not towards the classroom. Khushi did not follow her and remained there for five minutes until the bell rang indicating the end of the lunch break
After the lunch break Khushi heavy hearted came back to the classroom
Khushi
(sigh... I am completely blank now. I mean how could Tanya do such a weird thing? Huh. Anyway.)
Talking to herself Khushi approached her usual seat where she used to sit with Tanya every day. She was surprised to find Danish sitting there
Khushi cleared her thoughts with a sigh. She was least expecting to see Danish after the bomb Tanya exploded on her head.
Khushi
How come you're sitting here?
Danish
I need to talk to you about something
Khushi
But this is Tanya's seat. I mean... Where is she? Is she planning on bunking this period or something?
Khushi was really panicking seeing him in such a situation. She really wanted to avoid him right now.
Danish
I really haven't talked to her since lunch. But... Um... I heard some people saying, that she is gonna skip the rest of her school today.
Danish
So, I thought you won't be having a seating partner for now and I could hence talk to you, taking her place. I hope you don't mind?
Khushi did mind, but she could not dare to say that out loud.
Khushi
Uhhh... Yeah, of course.
She said with a very weak smile. She took off her bag and placed it in front of her seat and got settled down
Khushi
What is it? What do you want to talk about?
Danish
I really don't know how to say this, but do you know that Tanya and I...
He stopped in the middle of saying. He was really looking pityful
It was as if Khushi could read his mind and finished his sentence for him
Khushi
You and Tanya broke up.
Danish Rebels
Danish felt a stinging pain while saying this.
Khushi
I know Danish. You and Tanya broke up. I'm really sorry about that.
Danish
Do you, perhaps... Know the reason why she did it to me?
Khushi could not believe that Tanya did not give him a reason.
Khushi
Wait! She didn't TELL YOU??
Khushi kind of said it too loudly. The whole class looked at them for three to four seconds silently. Khushi acted a bit embarrassed and lowered down her voice.
Danish
No, she didn't. So, can you tell me?
Just then the Chemistry teacher, Mrs. Simran Wadhera entered the class and changed the mood of the classroom. Everyone settled down and got ready for the upcoming lecture
Mrs. Simran Wadhera
Okay class! Settle down and open your books eyes on the board and stop talking.
Mrs Wadhera was considered the school's most dangerous teacher. Every student in the school was scared of her.
Khushi didn't utter a word and looked puzzled at him
Danish
Tell me if you know something.
Khushi
Danish... I... Uh...
Danish
Look! I'll be fine. Just tell me.
Khushi
Tanya broke up with you because an astrologer predicted that you will not be faithful to her.
Khushi
Well, yesterday an astrologer looked into Tanya's hand and said that the guy Tanya is dating is going to cheat on her and break her trust and that he was soon going to turn violent towards her. So, if she wants to escape this, she needs to break the relationship ASAP. So... She thought...
Khushi whispered to Danish taking care that ma'am does not find out
Danish was too loud and the teacher heard him.
Miss Wadhera turned from the board and looked at Danish for some seconds
Mrs. Wadhera yelled at Danish interrupting the class like that. Danish stood up in his place.
Mrs. Simran Wadhera
I said be quiet.
Danish came in Mrs. Wadhera's good books so she avoided him and gestured for him to sit down.
Danish was seated but the anger was boiling inside him.
It was quiet for like five minutes.
Danish
So, that's it then?
Khushi looked up at him from her notebook. Danish looked really heartbroken.
Danish
That's all she trusts me?
Danish
I never did anything to her to not believe me... then why? Am I Such A Loser THAT FUCKING ASTROLOGER MORE THAN ME?
Danish was becoming louder after each word he said. He suddenly didn't care anymore about being in the classroom. By the end of his sentence Mrs. Wadhera heard him and started to glare at him.
Khushi
Err... Danish Mrs Wadhera...
Khushi whispered trying to warn Danish about Mrs. Wadhera who was now glaring at him furiously.
He was really loud this time
Khushi
Danish... I know what you're going through... but can we talk about it after class please?
Danish
I DON'T CARE OF THE DAMN CLASS!!!
He looked up and he had eye contact with Mrs. Wadhera
Danish
And YOU! You want me to be quiet huh? I won't! What the heck can you do?!
He dared to insult Mrs. Wadhera in a class full of students.
Everyone in the class turned their eyes towards Danish. Danish was sweating from anger and Mrs. Wadhera was glaring at him.
Silence of three to four seconds
Mrs. Simran Wadhera
GET. OUT. OF. MY. CLASS.
Danish Yells
Danish didn't react, as if he didn't care. He just lifted his bag, wore it and started to leave. Just then, Khushi held his hand and stood up.
Khushi
Err... Ma'am I am really sorry, but please can you excuse him this last time?
Miss Wadhera was speechless for several seconds
Mrs. Simran Wadhera
Oh? Now YOU will tell me what I should do and what I should not? What is your name?
Mrs. Simran Wadhera
Okay so, Khushi... Are you seriously trying to brag in front of me? And that too for someone else?
Khushi
Sorry to cross my limits ma'am, but you have also known Danish from so long. He has always been an ideal student. Please excuse him this one last time. He is just going through something huge and is not feeling well right now. He needs some rest.
There was a pinching silence in the class. Khushi was never a person to brag about someone else and that too to Mrs. Wadhera. Everyone in class was shocked at her sudden change of attitude.
Mrs. Simran Wadhera
(sigh) Okay. Khushi and... You. What's your name?
Mrs. Wadhera pointed at a student on the second bench and asked
Mrs. Simran Wadhera
Okay. Both of you go with Danish and drop him to the sick room and come back.
And Khushi took Danish hurriedly out of the classroom. Kartik just walked behind both of them. The three of them were in the sick room now.
Kartik
Whoa... Dude! That was a drama you pulled out in there. It was fun. The class was literally getting boring.
Khushi looked at him disgusted
Kartik asked her why she was looking at him like that?
Khushi
(These boys. They just don't have any sense of emotion)
Khushi turned to Danish ignoring Kartik completely.
Khushi
Danish... Are you okay? Do you need to rest?
Danish
Khushi, I don't need your sympathy okay?
Kartik
Seriously... What happened really? Why is he so strange today?
Both Danish and Khushi ignored him
Khushi
Danish, I'm not sympathizing with you. I'm just...
Danish
I need to go find Tanya
Danish yelled, he was not listening to Khushi at all
Danish was leaving but Khushi held his hand and stopped him
Danish jerked off Khushi's hand
Khushi
Danish please, just calm down.
Danish
Seriously? You want me to calm down? How can I calm down tell me? HUH? MY GIRL BROKE UP WITH ΜΕ. And YOU her "best friend" wants me to "calm down"?
Khushi
Danish... Where exactly are you going to find her? She skipped school after lunch and went god knows where to. How will you find her, huh??
Kartik
Geez... Seriously... All this drama for a stupid break up?
Kartik
Dude... I think it was good that the relationship ended. I mean come on. I don't like that Tanya at all. That bitch. Seriously.
