Today is the fest of their Department and Amrita also have to get ready, she would be wearing suit salwar which does look a bit historical but she has never been so dressed up before and today as she is the member, She has too be present!!!
She instruct the juniors to place the decor as she has planned it in her head while cutting some shapes.
Few students are pasting the name of the theme near the entrance. There will be nukkad natak, some food stall, Games, music performance (sufi) and a seminar where the chief guests would be sitting and giving lectures. They are done with the decorations in the seminar hall and now they are doing the lawn.
After this they would be changing clothes in washroom or the girls and boys changing room which is in the college.
Shahid and Shambhavi came to them and told to get ready and the Decorations are fabulous. Amrita grinned and along with the junior girls she went to change her clothes. It's her mother's very favourite suit so she just didn't wanted to ruin it in any way, plus as she doesn't have any friend that she could go just go to her pg and change.
Changing into the light brown suit, She applied moisturiser and then bb cream of her skin tone to make her skin of even tone and a little bright. Then she apply a powder to neutralise the oily texture. Putting lipstick of nude pink colour, She takes a small black bindi and paste it between her eye brows.
Shit, Eye make up !! She put thin eye liner and mascara and the great thing is that...she forgot to bring her contact lenses so all her look is almost runied. She doesn't like wearing specs when she has make up on even though she looks cute !!
Having no option she wear her specs and then pin duppata on her shoulder. Wearing a small jhumka as well.
There is a message in the group to be in the seminar hall as the guests have arrived !
She quickly walks to the seminar hall with her juniors and she can feel the gaze of people on her.
Am I looking over or weird in this? She thought. But now she can't change it so she just walks to the seminar hall.
Near the door there is someone standing with a phone in his hand, wearing a dark Brown Kurta.
He has just blocked the way wow.
"Umm excuse me ?" She said in low voice behind him and he turned around almost slipped his phone from his hand when he saw her.
Amrita let out a sigh finding that the guy is non other than her Professor Abhimanyu!
Her eyes travel from his toes to his face and just like her even he is checking her out. She is looking different and...more beautiful! He thought.
"I will call later" He said on the call cutting it and raise his eye brows at her "Amrita?"
She tuck her hair behind her ear and smile a little "Yes Sir?"
He again look at her and smiles "Nothing, You are late" He said opening the seminar door for both of them.
He let her go in first and she stood with the people of the organising committee. Abhimanyu sat in the front row and listening to the lecture. Amrita's look still taking time to sink in his mind.
Shahid came and stood beside her "You are looking nice" He complimented Amrita
She smiled "really? Um thanks" She looked in front again, her eyes flickering to Abhimanyu time to time.
He looks more good in Kurta for real.

Now everyone is in the lawn, eating food, playing games. The juniors are dancing which they have prepared.
Sun is shining over Amrita making her glow more, Abhimanyu for a slightest of time forgot that he is a professor and she is his student, He is standing at the side as there was less chair and he offered it to Sanjay sir, Now a Junior is bringing chair for him.
It was the change in song which made him look at the stage again.
Have a control on yourself Abhimanyu, She is your Student!! He took a deep breath and avoided looking at Amrita after that, until it was time for photo graph time.
The organising committee and teachers stood together first, Amrita stood at the very corner smiling at the Camera and then it was all the people from all the years. As Amrita was Short, She was made to stand in the middle, in front of Abhimanyu when she came, She has no idea.
This time she smiled nervously as they were a little close, Not touching at all, but the body heat could be felt and the photographer saying one more one more, Was making her want to wrap his neck with her Duppatta!
As soon as the picture was done she moved forward but her Duppatta was tucked back, She turned around and Saw Abhimanyu has stepped on it and is Not aware about it while talking to Sanjay Sir.
Why?? She screamed in her mind and then went close to him "Umm Sir?"
Abhimanyu looks at her and she doesn't maintain an eye contact "My aa" She looks at his feet and he immediately step back hold her Duppatta up "I am very sorry"
"It's okay Sir" She said softly
Then Professor Sanjay said "Nice decor Amrita, very impressive"
She smiled "Thank you sir, but it was mostly the juniors who did all this and The Idea was given by Abhimanyu Sir"
Sanjay sir chuckled "But you have bought the idea into reality, And the coordination among the students. It is impressive, it is okay to take credit for yourself as well"
Abhimanyu liked the way she is tucking her hair behind her ear and smiling.
Abhimanyu then said "Yes, I just gave the idea but you have executed it well with the help of students, Good Job Amrita" He smiled showing his dimples and her heart fluttered
She clutched her Duppatta tightly "Thank you sir" Her voice came very low.
He shouldn't be looking this good to make her shy like this !! Without any efforts.
"Abhimanyu Sir, Sanjay Sir, One Photo with me" Said Shahid grinning
"Sure" Said Sanjay sir and Shahid give phone to Amrita "Umm can you?"
"Yeah!"
Amrita picks up the phone and click their photographs.
Then Sanjay Sir Call her "You also come Amrita Beta" Sanjay sir literally see his daughter in Amrita and that's for sure, thought Abhimanyu.
Amrita pass Shahid her Phone and stand between Sanjay Sir and Abhimanyu.
"Amrita smile" Said Shahid and how does she tell him that she is nervous. She compose herself and smile.
"Aree you and Abhimanyu Sir Match, I mean the colour" Said Shahid looking at the photograph
Sanjay sir nod "Yeah True !"
Abhimanyu and Amrita look at each other for a while and said nothing.
Then Shahid stands beside Amrita "let's take a selfie" He said and they all looked at the Camera.
Watching Shahid and Amrita having photographs with Abhimanyu and Sanjay sir, all other students came running.
Amrita then calls her father and left for home, feeling so tired and yet amazing.
"So how was the day?" Her father asked once she was in car
"Soo Good, it was a nice experience"
"Hmm Have clicked photos?"
"Not of myself individually but group photo and with professors"
Amrita show him the photographs "Aww These picture are nice, You look beautiful"
Amrita grin's.
"Isn't this guy a little too mature to be a student?" He asked holding the phone when he stop at the signal.
"Who Papa?" She asked frowning
"Him!"
Looking at the picture she giggled "Papa, He is my architecture design professor, Abhimanyu Sir"
"Really? He doesn't look like a professor, I mean too Young as a professor and too mature to be a student"
Amrita didn't say anything and held the phone back, And they both are looking so good in the picture.
"Papa, Sanjay Sir treats me like his daughter I feel" Said Amrita and her father resume driving
Her father smiled "I know, When I talked to him, There was so much positive vibe and do you know we both come from the same state !"
"Really?" She frown
"Yup !"
They both were Talking and Abhimanyu tilted his face looking at the picture with Amrita and Sanjay Sir.
He unknowingly zoomed his photo with Amrita, not knowing why is he looking at both of them alone.
Abhimanyu click back and place the phone aside.
"This isn't right Abhimanyu!" He mumbled to himself
He pick up his phone again and search "How to stop yourself from looking at your student?"
Result - Stay focused on Studies
Abhimanyu Rolled his eyes ! I fucking Teach Mr.Google, Of course I am focused.
Result two - Distract yourself, do Other things
Other things? What are the other things??
He closed the tab and sighed. I should probably Sleep ! Best.
But then he just turned on the bed, from one side to another so the next thing he was focusing on....Studies!
Dheere dheere se meri zindagi me aana !
Everything is happening slowly !! It started with politeness, then her clumsiness, then her projects and everything, now slowly her beauty!
