43) R.K.!

Song dedicated to this chapter- Afgan Jalebi! 🤭

Six Years later

January 29, 2028

London, England!

11 A.M. Oxford University campus!

In a spacious class room more than 200 people were present and all of them were whispering among themselves.

"I am telling you mate this is going to be a total waste of time." An African man whispered to an Asian man sitting beside him.

"Well I guess so, it's already been 15 mins since we have arrived here and there is no traces of the speaker of the day." The Asian man sighed.

While another person sitting with a gap of 1 seat left to them Said.

"I shouldn't have agreed to come here. Firstly what type of topic are we going to discuss today. Like seriously guys we are studying at such a prestigious university and instead of discussing important scientific inventions, we are going to discuss Psychology's non existent branch ' Parapsychology' and the person who is the speaker for the day is already late. Proving how much serious he is about this project." The man who was of Indian ethnicity scoffed and he was talking to a blonde woman!

But before anyone could say anything a woman who was sitting on the seat between the black man and the Indian man suddenly raised from her seat and while doing so, she said.

"Its a she gentleman and not a he who is going to speak today." And with bold steps went towards the the centre of the room where a dice with a Mike was placed!

In room full of formally clothed people that girl who was probably in her early or mid 20's was dressed oddly!

With a white t-shirt underneath Black stretchable jeans white sneakers and a black leather jacket her outfit screamed Street danger.

Her hair were pulled into a high ponytail and her face was bare of any makeup other than a lip gloss and it give her a rough and tough look.

(Outfit reference)

"First of all ladies and gentlemen I am R.K. the speaker of the day. And no I was not late as you all were thinking. Infact I came to the room half an hour before you all arrived, it's Just that you all didn't knew me and I didn't made an effort to tell you that I your speaker was right here all along so you all thought that I am some irresponsible person who is late." R.K. chuckled at the end.

"What kind of a sick joke is this?" The same Indian man who was speaking early stood up and spoke rudely.

"Aah it's not any joke Mr...?" Rehmaat asked his name.

"Gaurav Sharma." He replied with the same rude tone.

But R.K. only smiled to his Rude tone.

"Mr. Sharma it's not a joke it was just a little experiment from my side to prove a little logic of mine." She said.

While others were curious to know about the experiment now.

"What experiment?" A ginger haired girl with a Russian accent asked.

" An experiment to prove that how foolish we humans are. So quick to make assumptions!" She replied with the same smile in ease as if she didn't just offend a room full of humans by calling them foolish!

"What how dare you say that?" Gaurav said in an accusing tone while the blonde woman beside him tried to cool him down.

"Ooh Mr. Sharma cool down and sit down we already have limited time so let me explain it first than you can accuse all you want!" R.K. said while leaving the dice and coming in the centre while someone from the team of the University gave her a wireless hand Mike.

"Ok so the experiment was that even though I was sitting among you, nobody recognised me because nobody knew how I looked and instead of finding the reason that why I wasn't there or where I was, most of you started making assumptions that how I was some lazy person who isn't serious about the seminar or how this topic was a waste of time in itself etc.etc." She took a pause to look at everyone before continuing.

"But did anyone of you thought that maybe I was having some problem some emergency because of which I wasn't able to arrive? Anyone?" She again Questioned only to get negative reply.

"Because you all were busy making assumptions! And that habit of making assumptions makes us humans foolish." She said.

But before she could say anything further Gaurav again raised his hand.

"Yes Mr.Sharma?" She asked.

"And how does that concern today's topic. If you are forgetting R.K. than today's event was suppose to be about Parapsychology and not about philosophy!" He spatted.

It almost looked like he had some personal issue with R.K. or more like with Parapsychology!

" Mr. Sharma you are again proving my point! That without even listening to the whole thing you are making assumptions just by listening to the portion of what I was saying that it's about philosophy!" She gave an sarcastic laugh.

To which a few laughters erupted from the audience! To which Gaurav Sharma went red with the embarrassment and sat down.

"Ok so back to the topic! So my point of the experiment was to prove that humans love to make assumptions and mostly assumptions signify the ignorant Nature of us humans!"

"And that's why we tend to ignore the things that we can't understand. We think that Just because we are unable to understand something that means it doesn't exist! And that's the biggest mistake we make!" She completed her sentence.

To which the audience now looked like they wanted to listen to her.

"But are you trying to say that the paranormal things exist!" A Burnett with a thick American accent said her eyes were almost shining with excitement!

"Kyunki hume koi cheez samjh nahi aa rahi isska matlab yeh nahi ke woh cheez betuki hai. Balki uska matlab yeh hai ke bas hum abhi uss cheez ko samjh ne ke kabil nahi hai!" She said in Hindi while most of the audience looked like she uttered something alien!

( Just because we are unable to understand something that doesn't mean that the thing is illogical it just means that we are not worthy enough to understand that thing right now.)

As most of them didn't knew hindi!

"I said a phrase in Hindi which is an Indian language and I know most of you didn't understand it. But does that mean Hindi doesn't exist or it is not a language just because you were unable to understand it does it?" She asked to which the audience erupted in no.

"Mr. Sharma did you understand it?" She asked.

"Yes I did!" Gaurav replied!

"But the other people did not understand it does that mean you are mad and telling lies that you understood what I said?" She asked again.

"Ofcourse not. It's simple, there brain doesn't have any knowledge of that particular language hence it was unable to recognise it thus they didn't understand it. But I am fluent in hindi so I understood!" He replied while a realisation dawned upon him!

"Exactly, that's how Parapsychology works too. Just because you never experienced it that doesn't mean paranormal things like mind reading telekinesis or miracles don't happen!" She said while the hall errupted in claps!

"And and and all of us are the highly educated people of the society who are associated with science in one way or another. As people of science it's our duty to try to understand things which we are unable to understand by experimenting and not just be ignorant and refuse to believe it's existence!" She took a pause before speaking again!

"You know I come from India. The land of ancient Vedas and scriptures! Where people still believe in miracles! But that's wrong in a way too!" Her statement shocked Many and she looked at the shocked faces with a small smile.

"Just believing in something without a logic is as foolish as just ignoring something's existence even before trying to find the logic."

"Because trust me every magic is a science, just advanced one that we are not able to understand right now! As today's science was miracle of past too." And too her statement once again the hall errupted in claps once again.

"So you believe in supernatural things." Gaurav Sharma Asked with a satisfied look on his face!

"I just believe that nature is full of surprises ,mystics and miracles. And you need to experience it once yourself to have a firm belief in it!" And with that being said the seminar on the topic parapsychology continued and it was a huge success.

After 1 hour!

Almost Everyone had left the room.

Barely 4-5 people were still there and they were also packing to go back.

One of them was R.K. also known as Rehmaat Kaur.

"R.K. wait I had one last Question!" Someone said from behind as Rehmaat was about to go out of the room.

"Yes Gaurav and?" She said with a smile while looking at Gaurav and the blonde girl beside him.

"Hey I am Sasha! Gaurav's wife and R.K. I just love the way you spoke today and trust me you just changed my prospective on Parapsychology!" Sasha said while Rehmaat guessed she was a British girl as the Strong British accent was unmissable!

"Ooh thanks Sasha it's a pleasure honestly!" Rehmaat waved her hand in a let it go manner!

"R.K. firstly I am so sorry that I talked to you rudely and secondly you said one get's firm belief if one experiences miracle themselves so did you ever experienced a miracle yourself! Only if you are comfortable with sharing it" He asked with a excited tone.

"Well my mum was declared infertile years ago and still if we get the tests done the result will be that this woman is infertile but I am my mum's biological child. And the doctors whom my mum use to consult before my birth calls my existence a miracle in itself." Rehmaat said while the couple looked shocked.

And after that they chatted a little more! And exchanged numbers.

"Hey R.K. have lunch with us at our home it's nearby." Sasha suggested to which Rehmaat replied.

"Next time for sure Sasha. Whenever I will come back to London. Today I have to go back to Cambridge a really important meeting to attend!" She said and they said their goodbye and parted ways.

As Rehmaat was about to come out of her University campus her phone ranged and as she picked up the call the phone blasted with a loud voice!

"Rehmaat Kaur Brar where the hell are you. You were suppose to be here today it's your sisters wedding in 10 days for God sake! But God knows why you are not here." The usually calm and composed Shubhi Jain was roaring today.

One of The side effects of living with Rehmaat is that person surely get High B.P. problems!

"Chillax Lucky! I won't be able to come till 1 Feb dude. I have a really important meeting tommorow and it's impossible to come to India till 1. So I guess I will be missing her engagement I am so sorry. But you are there, and I know you along with Basanti, noor,A.V. , R.V., Akshansh Jeez, Jay and all the other family members will take care of everything! I will come a day after her engagement bro so manage till than. Ok bye see you soon. Love ya." Hurriedly she cut the call while Shubhi was still screaming and went towards the cab that she booked.

As she settled in the the cab she got lost in her thoughts!

Rehmaat's POV

People say nothing else is constant other than change!

And they say the truth!

Everything changes in this world.

Well my world has changed completely too.

For the startings I am not that 18 year old teenager anymore instead I am now a 24 year old working adult who along with her education works some part time jobs too!

Well I am doing my internship along with my M.A. degree!

But my Preeti says only my age has changed all my habits are same!

I still am a storm, just an 24 year old storm now.

But life of people around me has changed too.

For the starters, My basanti has married love of her life, my jeez Ayaan Ahuja and both are now blessed with a cute baby boy, named Ruhaan!

And guess what it was me who named him! I named him with the ship name of his parents and trust me that little bundle of joy although is just 1 year old but is too naughty.

And is my partner in crime along with Ayaan jeez. We three annoy Basanti too much whenever I go to Paris to meet them or whenever they come here to meet me!

And Eknoor! Gosh I still can't believe it that she too got married 2 months ago to her enemy of the life Rehaan Ahuja! They still fight like Tom and Jerry but love each other too much!

My lucky AKA Shubhi is engaged to tbe love of her life Akshansh Jeez too.

Every one is happy around me!

And I ......

Umm I am happy too, Preeti says I am a Banjaran AKA a traveller who is always travelling from one place to another!

I am living the time of my life and I am always thrid wheeling between all the couples. As all my friends are either married or engaged.

But how ironic right!

The girl who was first too fall in love is still alone and still single! While all the others who fell in love afterwards are with their partners!

But I am not sad instead as my Jay says I am special so is my story.

So let's see what is written next.

G.P. be with me,as I have to go back to the place, to the people whom I am Angry with.

This time I won't melt. Everybody will have to pay.

India here I come!

Beware people, R.K. is coming!

Dramatic right! But you know your Rehmaat dude I love drama! (Giggle)
