College campus, 8.30am

"Did you see the exam syllabus?"asked Sasha popping in front of us.She had a disbelieving look on her face.

"Yeah."we shrugged in response.Pranjal got back to reading the physics book he had borrowed from library. I bet it weighted more than him or may be all of our total weight put together. Hope the bench we are sitting on doesn't tilt due to the weight. Sasha continued her rambling"Are these professors after our lives?We are students and not some reincarnated Einsteins.There are fourteen physics chapters,sixteen for chemistry..Mogambo sure has lost it.Almost all chapters for maths I and II...."She could go on talking all day long but I interrupted her.

"Baby, you need to breath in between the talk.Exam is the bitter truth of a student's life.We can't change the fact that we are in a big mess."I said pulling her down on the middle of the bench between me and Pranjal.

She didn't look convinced with my answer. Pranjal shifted his attention to us from the book and said"You guys are wasting time by cribbing about the syllabus.I just completed studying Newton's law." Yeah! He could be a real nerd sometimes.He was the brightest among us.

Sasha asked him"Which law where you reading exactly Baba Pranjal ji?". He replied with a smirk on his face"Law of Gravity." What Sasha did next made me laugh like hyena. She had pushed him off the bench.He was now lying on the ground."See,I just gave you a demo of how that law works and don't thank me.You know how modest I am." She spoke crossing her arms and settling down on the bench again.

He shot her an angry look while getting up.Then he pulled her hair.She winced in pain and started beating him with his own Physics book.I tried pulling her away from him before she kills him.I hated the fact that I always had to be a mediater when my friends fought with each other. Be it Sam and Nikki or Pranjal and Sasha.

Soon we all got busy in studying for the exam. There was a silence for a minute or two as Sasha broke it soon."Who is that hottie?"She enquired eyeing a new guy who was passing by us.He was dressed in formals.His purple shirt and grey pant suited him really well. We were now observing him. Pranjal shot a disapproving look in our direction and got busy in reading another law by Newton. This guy was sure obsessed with him.

The new guy looked confused as he had stopped and was figuring out something.

Sasha got up from her place and walked upto him."Hello handsome do you need any help?"she asked in a flirting manner. We both rolled our eyes at her.Was she even thinking before speaking those words? That guy replied soon"Yeah I am looking for something. Can you help me?"

Sasha stole a victorious glance at us and replied him"Yeah sure.I will be happy to help."

"I am looking for Geology department."He said with a small smile."Oh! That's great.I am a geology student too.You are new here?"she tried digging out some more information.

"Yeah! I am the new substitute Geology teacher."He blurted out the truth finally. Pranjal spat out the water he was drinking and was now gasping for air. I facepalmed myself after realising our great best friend had made fool of herself.

"I guess you are not in the mood of helping me anymore.I will find the way on my own."He chuckled while saying that and walked away from her.Sasha stood at her place still registering what just happened.

"Hello handsome do you need any help?"said Pranjal mimicking a girly voice.I was lauging hard clutching my stomach.Soon Sasha was running towards him with anger in her eyes.He collected his stuff and made run for his life.
