Megha ( POV ) 1 week later" Guys you wouldn't believe...." Said Aditya, he came running all the way to us . " What happened? Why are you running? " I asked him. " Saw yourself in the mirror...it's ok that's just your reflection." Said Zoya to him." Ha ! Ha ...very funny. I just saw a new teacher in the hall. Pankaj sir was saying that she is our new English teacher. " Said Aditya and sat down trying to catch his breath. " New teacher.... what's her name ? How she looks like ? When will she teach us ? " Asked Sahara all in one breath. She is too excited about the whole thing." I think she will start after the program. And we do have major news... Other subject results will be given later but today we will get back our math results. " said Aditya and I don't know what to say. " what? Why so soon? " I asked him. " since it was not semester, it was just Internal and we have our exams after the program, we are getting our results early so that we can improve. " said sahara, she doesn't look bothered at all. Why should she be bothered she is topper? But I am very tensed. All the formulas are getting mixed up in my brain. I am so confused, have I passed the exams or I failed? I don't known. " I think we should go back in class, its almost time. " said Aditya. We took our bags and stuff and came inside our classroom. Kabir sir was obviously already inside the class but he didn't made any fuss over the topic that we're late. We sat down in our benches, eyes still on him sorting the papers. He looked up, watched our expressions and said " well when I first arrived at your class, you guys were not that hopeful but I am glad to announce that you guys have improved well... So clap for yourself. " said kabir sir and the hall got filled with clapping sound. " Now its time for your results and well I have something else to say. I known I am taking long time but its something I must say. Its Roll no 156, who was always late for my class, who preferred to sleep in my class at the beginning but than she improved... She sarted doing better and I am glad to say that she scored highest in the class.... " he said and I can't believe it. " Miss Megha, do come here and take your answer sheet. " said kabir sir. I slowly walked forward took my sheet from his hand and I can't believe it. I scored highest marks in maths. The subject I hated so much, I did well in that subject. Sister is going to be so proud of me. Everyone clapped for me and that feeling, its just awesome. I came back in my seat. Sahara, zoya and Adi were really happy for me.  Slowly slowly everyone got their results back. Sahara also scored full marks and zoya and Adi did well. We celebrated our victory after class with Ice cream. I informed sister about my marks and she was very happy for me. I am so happy. And its time for kabir sir to fullfill his promise. I am going to meet my siaters in the orphanage today and stay for the night. So kabir sir will drop me. Kabir sir's car stopped infront of our orphanage gate.  " Sir have you noticed my number? " I asked him showing my math copy. " I don't think you know but I am your math's teacher and I graded your paper. " he said with a smile. " Ha! Ha! Very funny... You remember what you have promised me did you? " I asked him. " What prromise? " he asked me looking confused. I have to remind him about his promise. " you promised me that if I score well in my math exam you will participate in the upcoming program which now you have to. " I reminded him. " oh! That... I remembered now. Well since you did it than I guess I have to keep my promise. " he said and I am too excited. " Practice starts at 5 o'clock in the college hall and trust me I don't like students who gets late for my class. " I told him and he smiled with a ' I known what are you trying to say ' look on his face. " Alright, have fun. I have to go. " he said. But isn't he coming inside to meet with others . " wouldn't you come in and meet with sister? " I asked him. " I would have but I have to meet with an old friend of mine. Can't get late for that. " he said. Here I want to chat little longer but he wants to leave. So I didn't botheted him and got down from his car. He just left in hurry. Well at least he agreed to take part in the program, for now that will do. I must go in and meet with others. Kaveri ( POV ) " I knew she will get good marks, I will make her favourite sweet tomorrow. " said mom at the dinner table. We all are having dinner together. Its little empty without megha in the house. " Glad we are going in the program, we can watch someone dance. " said samrat to Kabir who is super shy about the topic. " I don't know how to dance, but I am trapped in my own words. " he said to samrat and we all laughed. " Should we call her or its too late? " asked mom. " she doesn't have a phone. And its too late to call in the orphanage. " said kabir and thats really sad. " should we give her a phone? Now She can have one right? " asked mom. " yes , now she can have one. " said kabir. We sarted to discuss model and stuff but I watched kabir, he was lost in thoughts, Is he missing megha?
