My next OS ' don't know whether it came out good'''hope it did''''this one will be the one when Taani dreams of her childhood, after Anurag rejected her. So here you go'''..
OS 2
Taani threw her bag on the floor and hastily ran to the kitchen, expecting to find maa to help her in cooking. She had sworn to herself that she'll cook for Anurag today, seeing how cheerful he had been when AM and PM brought him his favorite dishes. She looked for her mom all around, but she was nowhere to be found.
Taani (in her mind): So what happened if maa is not there? I'll do it myself. I know I am the best cook in the world. Nothing is impossible...
She arranged the entire ingredients one after the other and made his favorite aloo fry, looking at the guide which was kept in the shelf. She wanted to try it so badly, but dawdled, when the thought of Anurag tasting first and saying how it was, crossed her mind. She ran to his house with a bowl, stuffed with the fry and stopped to a halt before his room. She paused a moment to get her breath back. And boosting up her courage, she pushed open the door to find Anurag playing his favorite video game.
"Onu! See what I have made for you...Aloo fries!" She placed it on the table.
He turned to see Taani grinning at him, with a hand on her hip, as if showing off her talent. His expression disclosed that he was perplexed, for he had never seen her in the kitchen. But still he took one piece and kept it on his mouth. And the next moment, he spit it back on the bowl. "What did you make, Taani? Is this aloo or something else? You have put sugar instead of salt!" And he fell down laughing.
The next moment he raised his head, Taani was gone, but the bowl was still there. Seeing the bowl he chuckled again. He shook his head and went back to his video game.
The next day, he was in the school and had caught a seat for Taani. But to his disappointment, she didn't come that day. After school, he had gone to her house. Still, to his disappointment, she didn't budge at all and was acting as if he didn't exist at all. One day passed and the next day''
"Taani! Open the door...please...I beg you...open just for once...his familiar voice chanted outside her closed bedroom.
A small smile spread across Taani's face and her exasperated expression eased as his voice shot through her ears. Her eyes have been craving to see his 99 kg figure and cute smile for the past twenty-four hours. Instantly, she lifted her hand towards the door to unbolt it. But she withdrew it right away as the unpleasant scene raced through her mind. She marched towards her bed and sat there, obstinately and thought to herself, "I won't and I am not going to. He was the one who started the unnecessary fight. Why am I the one who always does the sacrifice part? Let him stay on the edge for a while."
She folded her hands and sat there, casually looking around as he kept banging on the door. "Taani, please...I am so sorry Taani...I promise you that I'll never repeat it. Promise on my kulfis!"
Taani's heart began to relax a little as he heard her words. But it got back to its usual self as she heard the next array of words, "Taani, just after you stormed out of my room yesterday, I had sat down to do my project. But...err...you know, right? I can't do any of my projects without your help'..I want you to help me...Taani, you know what? You can fight with me, but...um...after you help me with my project...honestly, you can fight till you like...err...until the next assignment comes. Please Taani..." He cried.
Taani (in her mind): What the hell? What does he think about himself? King of Kulfis or what? Idiot! Well, that's it! I am not going out there to help that loser motu!" Tears rolled down her bright red cheeks.
She said loudly, "Motu! You should have thought about this when you laughed at me like a donke yesterday." She said through her tears. "I am not coming out, that's it!"
After she said that, she could hear nothing from the other side. She assumed that he might have left. A lump formed in her throat. Maybe...she shouldn't have been that hard on him. What will he do tomorrow? If the teacher screams at him, then it will be just because of her!
Taani(in her mind): Come on Taani! It was totally his fault yesterday. Let him get some nice thrashings from the teacher.
Taani took a glance at the clock. It was five minutes past ten. She was about to go to sleep when it struck to her that she had to pack her bag for tomorrow. Obviously, she can't sit at home for the whole week. She walked towards her shelf and was arranging her books, when something fell down. She picked it up and saw that it was a photo of her and Anurag in their marriage costumes. Anurag's naughty look was the perfect one needed to melt Taani. Thoughts popped up in her mind about Anurag. She felt bad for not forgiving him.
Taani (in her mind): Taani, at least, he came to say sorry to you. Leave all the other faltu part of the conversation and just patch up with him, alright?
Taani unlocked the door to see that Anurag was sitting on the floor, chewing his lips. He didn't see Taani as he was wrapped up in his own thoughts.
Anurag (POV): What a big mistake was that, Anurag? You shouldn't have teased her like that! Look now what happened? She was crying! Taani was crying! Mishti was crying!! No! This couldn't happen...She always forgave me'.what happened now? Did I say something wrong? Err...no, right? I had just asked her to do my project...what's the big deal in that?? But don't worry! Just as she comes out of her room, I am going to do sit-ups.
Anurag was looking around, when he caught Taani watching him. He suddenly stood up and started doing sit-ups just like the way he did to Ananya di. And well, it did work after all. She started giggling which was just what he had wanted.
He ran up to her and asked, "Sorry Taani... So, will you do my project?"
She looked at him for a moment sternly and burst out laughing at the next second, but said, "Yes, of course, motu!"
Taani jumped up from her bed. The night's incidents flashed through her mind. How he had said no to get engaged to her...how he had said that he loves her, but is not in love with her...how she had ran out crying...Everything crossed her mind in a split second.
What might he be doing now? Will he be there outside my room, chewing his lips, jus like he had done that day? Or will he be sleeping peacefully in his house?
Taani(POV): I had learnt cooking just for you...but just see how it came out??? What was the outcome???
She didn't dare get up from her bed. She already knew the answer'..and she didn't want it to see it in real...He wouldn't be there...
But what was that dream all about? Or was it a nightmare? Of course, the incident was true...but still...from today, all such things will be termed nightmare...
*******************
(Outside Taani's house)
Anurag sat on the doorsteps of her house, chewing on his bottom lip. Second after second, he looked at the closed door, hoping somebody, preferably Taani, would open it.
Anurag (POV): What might she be doing now? Will she be crying? Will my Mishti be crying? What can I do, Taani? I am helpless. All I can say is "sorry"...
Both of them sat there, as the first rain droplet fell...
