(Anand's VOC)
I can't take this anymore! This is driving me insane.
Something is seriously wrong with me. I have to do something for this. I can't let it slide just like that. I can't put my mind into anything. This is not me. Not me at all.
"Anand!"
"Huh?" Indhu snapped me from my thoughts.
"What is going on?" She asked with a fierce look on her face.
"What?" I asked.
"I've been talking to you since an hour and here you are......" She pointed her hand to me and sighed. "In your very own wonderland!" She said tossing a file onto my desk.
"Were you saying something?" I asked innocently and she looked baffled.
"Yes you pig headed monkey gambler!" She said throwing another file aiming at my head.
"Why don't you behave yourself?" I asked mockingly.
"Well, don't you think that must be my question?" She asked and I raised my eyebrows.
"Don't give me that look boy! I know you too well! Seriously Anand! What is wrong with you?" She asked.
"Nothing is wrong with me. Let's get back to bussiness." I told her to deviate myself from the topic.
"No, we're not! Untill you promise me that you'll stop wandering in you Wonderland." She answered.
"Okay, I promise you that I won't wander."
"You better not, I didn't fly two hours to watch you wander in your own thoughts." She said.
"I know okay? Let's get going with this."
I and Indhu kept discussing bussiness but I couldn't keep my mind on it. My eyes kept watching the clock tick untill it's four.
"With this....."
"I need to go!" I told her and she eyed me with rage.
"What? We aren't yet done!" She protested.
"I know! I'll be back in an hour or two. Just wait for me." I told her.
"Seriously, where do you have to go now?" She asked with pure disgust.
"Important meeting with an investor." I lied.
"Which investor?" She asked
"The Dubai one?" I suggested.
"Mr.Shaik informed me that he'd come next week."
Shit! What to do now?
"It's not the Sheikh guy. Investor is a new one, I'll let you know when I close it." I told her but she looked curiously.
"Are you hiding something?"
Ofcourse sister!
"Hiding is not my thing, I always play in the open." I tried to cover up.
"Then who is this investor we are talking about?" She asked raising her eyebrow.
"I don't have time. I'll talk when I'm back." I got up from my chair and grabbed my phone and keys from the desk.
"Did you forget something?" She asked.
I looked at myself and I shook my head.
"Nope." I said after confirming.
"Your jacket?" She asked.
"Not required for this one." I said and opened my office door before she could reply something.
Everyone wished me on my way but I didn't give a damn to anyone. The moment that I keep waiting to come has arrived and I can't skip this. I got into the elevator and pushed the button to the parking lot in a rush.
I walked out and I rushed quickly to the parking lot. I unlocked my black mec and hopped in. I pulled my tie clip and then my tie off and threw it on the passenger seat, I removed my first two buttons and I drove with all the speed I could master to reach there on time. I can't miss this even if I'm going to die.
I parked the cars a few blocks away. I breathed in as I grabbed a bag from the back seat. I pulled out a shaded jeans from the bag along with the ash color huddie.
I removed my cufflinks and I placed them on the dash board. I pulled my sleeves up to the elbow level.
I pulled my ash color huddie over my white button down formal. I removed my formal grey pant and replaced it with my jeans and same with my loafers to convers.
If only anyone could catch this on a camera. I bet it'll be the biggest scandal. I didn't give a damn to anything as I got habituated to it.
I looked at myself on the front mirror for once.
Perfect disguise Anand!
I smirked at the person in the mirror and I got off the car. I pulled my hud over my head and covered my eyes with my shades.
I walked through the familiar way.
Careful enough that I wouldn't catch anyone's attention.
Everyone were busy with their own bussiness, so no-one cared to notice me properly.
I rushed untill I found the thing I've been dying to watch the entire day.
Thankfully, she chose the cafeteria today.
This became an obsession to me. Every day I would drive to the university, change into my jeans and a huddie and walk into the campus untill I spot her. I've been doing this since a week but still it feels something different each day.
Mostly, I need to walk into a library and pretend to search for some book or read while sneaking glances at her. I'm watching her or most appropriately stalking her most of the time I'm there anyways.
I walked slowly towards her and sat behind her table.
She kept talking and most of the time laughing. I didn't pay any attention to anyone around as she's the one who stands out of everyone.

(Akshaya's VOC)
I kept laughing as I couldn't watch them acting like idiots. Why do they need to do this?
Geetha and Guna get along too well, then why are they trying to fight every now and then?
Things changed since the fest. I could see the change in their attitude since then.
"Akki! Stop it now!" Geetha yelled.
I tried to hide my laughter but somethings can't be stopped.
"Okay." I said trying to cover my mouth with the back of my hand.
"It's okay Akki, you don't need to stop it." Gunna said to tease Geetha.
"I had enough with this idiot." She murmured and got up from the place.
"Hey! Where are you leaving?" I asked her.
"Isn't is obvious? To hide herself from this embarrassment." Guna said as a matter of fact.
"Shut up Guna."
"I'm going back to the room. Come quick." She said eyeing Guna with all the rage she could master.
"What is it with you both?" I asked him as she was out of sight.
"I just hate her and she reciprocates. End of story." He simply replied.
"Why can't you both try to stop fighting? I mean, don't you think this to too childish?" I asked him.
"She starts it Akki, not me. Why don't you just ask her to keep away from me?" Stupid boy ego!
"I know who starts it very well Guna." He looked surprised at what I spoke.
"Do you think I start it?" He asked.
"Obviously! That's the truth!" I shreaked.
"Whatever, screw that. You said you want to ask me something about heat transfers." Perfect excuse to skip the topic.
"Yea, I almost forgot."
Something is definitely fishy between them. They don't know it themselves too. I think they like each other?
Yea, that could be true. I know that he's just attracted to me and nothing else. I'll solve the mistery and sort it in my way.
Get ready Guna and Geetha!
