A Life Changing Trek

CHAPTER-8

Author's POV

The next day they all went to Bhrigu Lake. Their tour guide, Amey, said that it would take 3 days to complete this one destination. Which means they'll be living in tents for 2 nights. Just the mere thought of it sent wave of excitement throughout Aarvi's body.

To make this even more interesting Amey said that they would be making two teams. They were in total 22 members, so the groups had to be 11-11.

"Captains kisko banna hai?" Amey asked to which Mayank and Manjot immediately raised their hands high up in the sky.

"Boys warm up nhi Karana hai kisiko bhi pehle hi bata raha hu" Amey said laughing. Everyone laughed too.

"Hum apne group members ko select Kar sakte hai Kya?" Mayank asked hopefully.

"Nhi, Mai select karunga " Amey said.

"Accha toh bro sunn, Ishan ko mere group me bilkul mat bhejna nhi toh pura waqt Mayank-Mayank Karke satate rahega." Hearing him everyone laughed while those two frowned.

"Ohk ohk. Thik hai." Saying this Amey started distributing everyone in two groups.

MAYANK's GROUP :- Ishan, Shubi, Aarvi, Aarya, Amey, and some other people.

MANJOT's GROUP :- Abhay, Kamlesh, Kiara, Tanya, Shrishti, and some other people.

"This is not fair, Mujhe Meri partner chahiye. Mai inn sabko akele nhi Jhel sakta. Baby pls come back" Mandy said dramatically to Aarvi.

"Haan jaa accha hai Hume pareshaan karne wala koi nhi rahega" Mayank said.

"Ohh bhai humlog ko marwana chahta hai Kya, yeh dono saathme rahe toh hamara katal hojana hai" Abhay said.

"I'm offended" Aarvi said.

"No one cares" Tanya replies her back.

"Mandy sunn. Tu unlog ko irritate Kar Aur Mai inn log ko. Zyada bakk rahe hai Sab" aarvi said to him.

"Ohk bro!" He said.

All started their journey. Aarvi was lost in her own thoughts. This place was so beautiful that she knows it's gonna be hard to go back home.

Kabhi Kabhi aise Lagta hai ki puri duniya, family, friends, work Sab ko Ek side rakhke sirf nature ke saath waqt bitaye, apne aap ke saath waqt bitaye.

Insaan Khud ke saath Jitna bhi time bitaye Woh kam Hota hai. Humesha Kuch na Kuch naya sikhte hai apne baare mein.

"Kin Khayala me khoi Ho" Shubi asked nudging her shoulder.

"Kuch nhi" She said.

"Agar Kuch nhi Hota na toh madam aap itna serious face nhi rakhti Abhi tak sabka dimag khati. Chal abh bata Kya hua." He said.

"My god! I didn't know ki tu Mujhe itna observe karta hai. Mai bilkul bhi surprised nhi hongi agar tune bola ki you already love me" she said teasingly to which he only laughed it off.

"Chal Abhi bata ki tu Kya soch rahi thi" he asked.

"Bas yahi soch rahi thi ki mai khudko kitna kam jaanti hu. I need to discover myself. Mai Khudko hi nhi jaanti toh logoko Kya bataungi apne baareme" she said embarrassingly.

"Yeh toh acchi baat hai na pagal. Tereko apne saath bitane ko waqt milega. tu khudko discover karte hue surrounding ko bhi discover kar sakti hai. Agar saathme koi insaan hai toh double accha hai, woh tereko company dega" shubi said.

"Haan acchi baat toh hai. Idea tune diya hai toh pura bhi tujhe hi karna padega. abh yeh next four days mai tujhe hi sataungi" she said to him grinning widely.

"Yaar yeh mai kidhar phas gaya" he said dramatically to which she shoved him off.

"Ohk lets play 20 questions - favourite colour?" shubh asked.

"Black. Yours?" she asked.

"Blue" he said.

"Favourite food?" she asked.

"Chole puri" he said grinning "Yours?"

"Idk mujhe sab pasand hai. favourite jaisa kuch nhi hai" she said.

"But kuch na kuch toh exception hoga na" he said.

"You can say veg kholapuri with naan" she said.

"See yeh Tera favourite hai Kyunki batate waqt tere eyes shine Kar rahe the, Woh chamak batata hai ki tujhe kitna Pasand hai" he said with such a cute smile.

"Waah thanks for telling me my favourite food. Dekh Maine bola tha na you are quite the observer. Tere saath rahungi toh khudke baareme bohat Kuch jaan lungi" she said.

Her last sentence was in a nice friendly way but, unknowingly to her heart it was with way too many emotions.

Shubi gave her his dimpled smile. Then they both went on asking questions one after the other.

To say the least they enjoyed each other's company very much. Not giving a damn about anyone else just the two of them in their whole new world.

You see at a particular moment a person can change your smile into a frown, happiness into sadness, free living to confused, etc. It is in our hands to chose the person wisely, whoever it may be friend, lover or even family.

"Mai Ek joke batau? Thik hai suno batati hu" Tanya said. She literally didn't even let anyone answer her question, Woh direct chalu hogayi batati hu Karke.

"Humne bola Kya batane? Khud jawab dena hai toh sawaal puchti hi Kyu hai?" Shrishti said.

"Whatever. Toh suno, Agar do peepal ke ped ko rassi se baandh diya jaye toh uss rassi ko Kya kahenge?" Tanya asked.

Everyone was confused as they didn't know what would be it's answer. "Kya pata" Abhay said.

"NOKIA- Connecting 'Peepal' " Tanya said. Hearing which everyone groaned except Manjot, who started laughing.

"Chii Woh kitna ghatiya joke tha, Mila kahase hai tujhe aise jokes" Kiara said.

"Chup, Woh kitna accha tha. Agar yaha pe Meri partner hoti toh woh hass hasskar Gir jaati " Manjot said.

"Accha hua nhi hai, warna Woh maharaani abh tak apne pagal harkato se maar daalti " Abhay said.

"Woh chod, madam ko Dekh sabse aage hai, shubh ke saath, and mere khayal se Woh log baate Kar rahe hai" Shrishti said.

They all looked in the front towards shubi and Aarvi who were talking n laughing.

"Mujhe aise Kyu Lagta hai ki Kuch khichdi pakne wali hai" Tanya said.

"Pakna hai toh pakne de, dono bohat cute lagte hai saathme" Manjot said admiring them as they were now sat on a rock.

"Humse zyada cute toh nhi" Abhay said snaking his arm around Kiara's shoulder, who was now blushing hard.

Everyone coughed with amused faces. Coming back to senses even Abhay blushed but was he going to remove his arm from around her shoulder? Nah NO.
