Divyaj was constantly checking his wrist watch. He set a reminder in his PC. Other days, time seemed to fly, but not today. Restless; he gulped a full glass of water and tried to concentrate on his work. After what seemed like an eternity, the reminder pops up. It is five o'clock. He hastily gathers the mess of papers and rather carelessly dumps it inside his drawer. Usually he makes note of what is on the plate for tomorrow, but all this could wait for another day. He must not be late today.

As he rushes thru the corridor and impatiently presses for the elevator Rohit, Shama and Akansha joins him. They all know why he is in a rush. He has been planning for this day for quite some time now. But there was a lot to do. You know those last minute details.

Shama, with an elegant smile says, "Big day huh! Good luck Divyaj." He could only smile and just then the elevator opens up. It is not that he was shy recluse, but ever since that fateful day, he really did not have time to notice anything else that life has to offer; of course beside 'Prerana'.

Oh! how the time flies, it had been almost 22 years now. In all these years, he had one goal, one desire and one responsibility. So much so that, he never even had time to look up and see or notice those silent gazes of Shama.

Sristi maiya :). Thanku.
Howz summer treating you? "Honest and caring" eh? Hehe. Take care.

In jest, IndisGuise:)

Chaosmaster,
Thanks, your kind words are appreciated. My only concern was would the reader be able to comprehend the subtle hints as and when I would end it. Since it took me quite a few days to finalize the finale, I was hoping people would remember those hints. Even then I posted the Reference.

But your words have made it feel like; perhaps it worked the way I wanted it to, however I do hope it is the case with others as well.

The reason I choose this plot is, first, I wanted to get away with mushy "lovy-dovy" stuff for a change. But most importantly, because I can relate to the emotional attachment and love the protagonist has for his sister.:)

Now, it is indeed sad that Divyaj have to live all his life with a guilt staggered in his heart like a dagger, and I do not see how he would be able to tell his sister that it was HE who actually threw those peels. But may be he will.

How she might react? How do you think she might react?

It's not that I did not conjecture about this, but I shall refrain from going in to it. The title, "Fate and Prejudiced" indeed sounds akin to the recent bollywood flick, nevertheless my point was how one's fate can conspire against him/her, and be unfair and discriminatory.

So your professor believed Shakespeare was indeed a make-believe figure eh?Hmmmm...You see the person I talked with was also a person with very sound credentials. Of course it does not mean whatever they believe is true, but it cerrainly should be interesting to know both side of the story. Regarding the said professor going for your grade because of your arguments; now that was not cool. If at all, they should be able to reason with you and try to look at it as just a paper, an assignment, not as your beliefs against his. I would certainly like to hear your points/arguments on this one ( abt ShaksP.)

In the meanwhile , I am very glad that you knew about this controversy lest my words would be termed as "hawa guff".

Take care mate,
IndisGuise:)
