#29 …when you day dream a lot.

I was scribbling in my notepad while sitting in the class and waiting for the teacher to arrive. Gaurav, sitting beside me, seemed to have been lost in his own world. Everybody straightened itself on seeing the teacher walk in, except Gaurav. He still was unaware of his arrival or of anything that might have been happening around him. I nudged him to bring him back to this world. He quickly sat up with a sheepish grin on his oblong face which made him look like the child from “Johny Johny yes papa”. Something was definitely amiss. After a while when I glanced on his notebook to see if he was taking down the notes, I wasn’t much surprised to find doodles and hearts all over the page. And a name in between – Tripti. I should have guessed that earlier. Only someone deeply engulfed in his new found feeling could be day dreaming. Alas! It didn’t last long, for the teacher seemed to have read his unattentiveness and warned him explicitly.
