Finally we reached the destination. It was a forest like place and we found ourselves in front of a small resort like structure. Yes, a resort in the forset. Later we found that a river is flowing nearby. And they said, nature is worth visiting there.
Anyway, it was already 11:30 when we reached, so we had to straightaway sit for the breakfast. As no one was my good friend, I had a corner seat where no one was there. Seriously saying, I was feeling like to fly to my home and get busy with the books. I was not liking the crowd and the noise and everything. There was another good reason for this. I was having a slow headache. And it was mounting slowly as the noise around was getting heavier. I had my breakfast in hurry and walked away from the place. I wanted to relax and I found the school bus the best place. It was parked at a distance from the crowed. I climbed in and rested on the back seat.
The head pain was killing me. And I didn't have any kind of medicine with me. I closed my eyes and tried to get some sleep. But, I could't. Not more than 10 minutes after I closed my eyes, I heard someone climbing in the bus. I opened up my eyes but closed it again as I thought I will not get noticed as I was in the back seat. The person was walking in the bus.
" Hey Rohan, what are you doing here ? Any problem..?" I heard him saying. I had to open my eyes and I saw Rahul there in front of me. His presence reminded me the words of Rimi. I got a little scared inside but tried not to show up.
"Nothing. I am fine." I said.
"You don't look like. Tell me. I may help." He was talking kind for the first time. May be it's his trap, I thought. I tried to read his face and it doesn't look like he was faking. May be he is too good an actor, I thought again.
"Really. I am okay Rahul. You go and enjoy. I will be back in few minutes." I said rudely.
"Are you sure." he was showing the real concern. I didn't answer this time. I just nodded and he walked away. I could see a real threat walking away from me. But it was not over. I have to be a little alert from Rahul. I closed my eyes again and tried to get over the headache. And soon I got slept.
Next time when I opened up my eyes, I was feeling better. So, I got out of the bus and searched for my classmates. No one was around. Only few seniors were playing cricket and few were playing badminton. But there was not anyone from my class. Where are they, I wondered.
I asked one of my seniors and he told me to go and have lunch inside. As I was not feeling hungry, I had a seat there on the grass and watched them play.
"Rohan... Mahesh sir is looking for you. You must report to him." I heard another senior Said to me. Mahesh sir was the head if the trip. I got up and walked inside to see him as instructed by my senior. He was really looking for me. He busted out of anger when he saw me. But then when I explained my reason, he softened a bit and allowed me to go for lunch after warning me that when I go somewhere, I have to ask him first. I had to agree.
I had the lunch and we went inside the room to relax a little. After that we had to visit the river as told by Mahesh sir. Everything was okay till then. But, what was going to happen next, no one knew it. And what happened, no one ever expected it.
