Author's POV:
"What luck have you had, Niyati? Oh God, please save me from this devil Sir. I will offer Laddu to you. Also, Don't forget that I'm your favorite child So please save me", She said in her mind while looking up and then reluctantly looked at him with innocent expressions on her face.
"Y...yes sir", she stuttered unknowingly while standing up.
'What is your name?", Smaran asked in a serious tone.
"Niyati", This time she responded with a little confidence as she did not want him to feel that she was afraid of him.
"Okay, tell me which chapter you haven't read yet. I'll start that", He didn't ask so seriously this time, just casually.
"Ok sir", She replied, picked up the book, and started looking at the index. After a few seconds, she was about to answer but was interrupted by his voice.
"Leave it, you sit down. I start a chapter on my own", He looked at the book's index and said. Niyati got angry.
"What a strange person this is? First, he asks the question himself and asks for its answer from me and when I start answering him, he finds the answer himself", Niyati spoke thinking in her mind and sat quietly.
"Okay Students, I'm going to start you a Chemistry chapter whose name is "Carbon Compounds" but before that, I want to know how many students in your class know the names of the first 20 chemical elements in sequence?", He asked in a normal tone.
After listening to this question, almost the whole class started looking here and there. It seemed as if all the students were ignoring making the contact with Smaran and were wishing that he should not even speak their name by mistake but throughout the class, some students knew names such as Niyati, her friends, and Samar.
"Sir, can I answer you this question?", Samar asked respectfully while raising her hand.
"Sure", Smaran answered.
"Hydrogen, helium, lithium, ....", Samar told the names of the element until 19, but he forgot the name of the 20th element and started thinking and while thinking, he looked at Niyati from the corner of his eyes and gestured her to tell him the name of that 20th element.
She tried to tell him by speaking in her mouth but he did not understand and then in a hurry she angrily spoke the name of that element a little higher, "Calcium yarr, Don't you understand that much?". She exasperated and said in a slightly high voice as if she had forgotten who is standing in front of her?
"Ohh Noo", when she realized, she shrank her eyes as if she was complaining about her mistake to herself.
"Did someone ask you to speak in between?", She heard a harsh as well as angry voice.
"Look at me", She again heard the same angry voice and reluctantly looked at Smaran whose eyes were showing rage.
"I asked you something whether you were allowed to speak in the middle or someone asked you to speak?", This time he asked in a loud voice with double anger.
"Nooo Sir", She replied in a slightly trembling voice while looking down.
"So why did you interrupt?", He asked with a raised brow.
"Because he forgot the last element so I just tried to help him by telling him", She replied while lifting her eyes up in his direction.
"O God, pick me up from here today or him, you got this teacher only to torture innocent children like us", She spoke in her mind.
"If he forgets something then I'm here to tell him and when I'm not here, you will help him and if I ask any question to any student then no other student in between will interrupt us. All children remember this thing", He ordered while looking at her.
"Okay sir", All class replied in unison.
"Sorry sir, I will not make such a mistake again", Niyati said while making an innocent face.
"It will be good for you only", He replied and then gestured Samar and Niyati to settle in their seats and start teaching the chapter.
"Today will be the worst day of my life, don't know whose face I had seen after getting up in the morning", She said to Mitali while expressing anger.
"Leave it to yarr, now let it go. Anyway,
Today, you have encountered this teacher twice so this is enough for today. Don't do anything so that now anything is bad with you for the third time", Mitali tried to make her understand and also tried to cool her down."You are right, I will be the only one to get mad while getting angry at this person unnecessarily. If the time comes, I will teach this teacher a good lesson", She replied showing fire in her eyes.
Niyati is a girl who never fights needlessly with someone and if someone messes with her then she doesn't leave him/her either.
The lecture ends on a good note without the third encountered between Niyati and Smaran. At the same time lunchtime begins. School is given 20 minutes for lunch.
In 10 minutes Niyati,Mitali, Ridhi, and Divya finish lunch together. As soon as the Niyati is canned the lunch box and put in the bag, Samar immediately jumps in front of her.
"Ahh!", She screams as she gets scared due to Samar coming straight ahead.
"Are you crazy?", She asks in a slightly shivering voice.
"Yes, and should I tell you why I'm crazy?", He asks in a loving voice raising her brow.
"No, there is no need for that", She gives quick answers as if she already knows the answer to this question.
"You leave all this and tell me what you are doing here? Didn't you go to flirt with your junior girls today?", Niyati asked in a slightly joking tone.
Ridhi and Divya had gone to their other friends after having lunch and Mitali was listening quietly to them. Listening to Niyati's last point, She gets an answer to her question which asks her in the Punjabi lecture that she used to like Samar earlier and why doesn't she like him anymore?
"No, I'm not in the mood today and I have told you so many times that girls flirt with me Not me, she gives up her life on me Not me", He responded by raising the collar of his shirt in pride.
"Oh Mr. Confident", Niyati said turning her collar back and added, "there is no need to fly in the air and if the girls were flirting with you, then why do you go to meet them in their class, they too can come to meet you?", She asked the question.
"Yes, you are right, but I have a perfect answer to your question, and that too with Logic. Look, Now if a girl was interested in me, she would come here to meet me. But here, more than half of the girls of both the eighth and ninth classes have lost their heart on me and if they come to meet me then one will get very crowded in this class and the other is that some pretty girls of my class are jealous of them. They will start to feel and quarrel with them or it may be that they start ragging those junior girls and I can never let this happen so I come back after spending the first 5 minutes in eighth grade and the second 5 minutes in the ninth grade and he was about to say something else that she cut him off in the middle and say, "Stop sharing your knowledge Sir. I don't need any such extra knowledge from you. If you want to talk about any work, then say otherwise go ahead", She said in a little serious tone while joining her hands.
"Yes", He quickly answered.
"Say soon", She replied.
"I wanted to tell you something", He spoke with a little nervousness.
"What, Speak?", She replied.
"I wanted to tell you that .....", He stops speaking this much and starts looking at Mitali who is sitting with Niyati who only understands what he wants to say by looking at his face and encourages him in gestures for completing her talk.
"Will you say anything further?", She speaks while drawing his attention back to her.
"I want to tell you that...", He then stops again thinking something and says it right away," Yes, I wanted to ask you, what date has been fixed for our math and science quiz this time?", As he says this, he takes a long breath of peace but Mitali angrily hit her hand on her forehead in disappointment.
Every month there is a quiz for Math and Science for children from class VI to X, which aims to enhance the knowledge of Students.
"What was the need to do so much drama to ask such a thing? Its date is the day after tomorrow", As soon as she answered, the bell at the end of lunchtime rings and he goes back to his place saying thank you to her. As he goes Mithali starts talking to her.
"I think he wanted to tell you something else", Mitali, looking towards Niyati, said as if she wanted her to understand the untold things of him without saying it.
"I know that he came here to talk to me about something else and went away saying something else", She replied without looking at Mitali as if she doesn't want to make eye contact with Mitali.
"How do you know?", Mitali asked in surprise.
"Because I had already seen him asking Charan sir about the date of quiz in the morning", She replied with no emotion.
"Then why did you not say this at that time", Mitali asked Surprisingly.
"Because the thing which makes anyone feel bad, it would be better if not talked about", This time she responded by looking in her eyes.
"What you mean to say is that if today Samar puts his heart in front of you and asked you for permission to build a relationship above friendship, would you refuse it?", Mitali asks to turn her talk to Faith.
"Yes", She replied in an emotionless voice.
"And you had to refuse him just because he goes to meet other girls and they flirts with him", Mitali again asked.
"Yes", She replied in the same voice without showing any emotion on her face.
"You have seen all this but why did you not see that no matter how many girls he talks to or how many girls flirt with him, but he only likes you and will", Mitali spoke in a little anger.
"The first thing is that girls flirt with him only when he allows them to do it with himself and secondly I have known her for almost 9 years. even if I say yes to him. Still, he won't stop going to those girls because it is his behavior. If I had the slightest hope that he could change, then I would have said yes to him because if the person who is mine is a bit of someone else, then I don't want that person", She finished her talk.
"But it is also possible that ...", She cut Mitali's talk in middle and said..., "that's it! I don't want to talk about it anymore and I don't want to talk anything else on this matter. I hope you understand me too", She asked looking towards Mitali with hopeful eyes and she nodded yes.
At this point, their mathematics teacher enters the class and when they come, they make such announcement that the whole class becomes sad and he speaks another such thing, due to which Niyati's senses are blown away.
Author's POV : Charan sir came into the classroom and announced that this time Smaran will make the quiz for the tenth grade, which all the students were saddened. But he somehow persuaded them, but as soon as he said his second thing, Niyati's senses were blown away by hearing it.Looking towards her, he said that this time she will tell the quiz pattern to the Smaran tomorrow because tomorrow he is on leave and also told her that she will have to do this work in the morning 15 minutes before the first lecture."But Sir, why only me?", Se asked getting a little upset."Because I want to, So", He replied expressing his confidence in her."Ok sir, As you wish", She replied in a slightly sad voice and Sir started teaching."Charan sir could have spoken to anyone else to do this work. Why me? And that too to Smaran sir? Oh God!", She panicked."Yar
Author's POV:Due to the absence of the subject teacher, the free lecture was going on and all the students were preparing for the quiz to be held tomorrow."No yarr. Such a problem will not be solved like this", Niyati said."What is the problem yarr? There is a quiz here tomorrow and questions of this topic are not being solved", Mitali replied teasingly."Don't take stress, yarr. It will be solved. You don't stop trying", She encouraged her and said."May I help?" Suddenly Samar came in front of them and said.Mitali spoke before Niyati could say anything," Yes please, the questions of this topic are not being solved. Please solve it". She expressed a little concern and said."Let me see", He picked up the book saying this and after a few seconds of looking at the question, he said, "Sorry yarr Mitali, these questions are not soluble even to m

Students' quiz was conducted in different rooms So all the students were being taken from that room to another room with only cardboard and their geometry box and they were being seated on separate benches in one order.Smaran's duty was engaged in the quiz room, due to which he was busy for the last 1 hour in arranging all the arrangements there and due to this, he could not attend science lecture in class X today. The Students were being called according to their roll numbers.Niyati's roll number was 17. As soon as Charan sir spoke her roll number, she started coming forward saying, present sir. As her voice went into his ears. He started looking in that direction and when he saw her coming, he was surprised.She smiled a little looking at him and then sat in her place. After setting all the students according to their roll numbe
Author's POV :He sees Niyati decorating the classroom. She is standing on a bench and fixing handmade flowers made by her. He is watching her silently fixing flowers. Suddenly she noticed that her hand could not reach the place where she is trying to fix flowers on the wall so she tries to raise her hand to reach there. She puts flowers, but due to putting weight on her toes for a long time, her balance deteriorates and she starts falling.As soon as he sees her faltering.

Due to the fear of falling, her hands automatically make a loop around her neck and her eyes are shrunken and the hair is falling on her face, due to which his eyes are not moving from her face. She Keeps her eyes like this for few seconds but when she realizes that someone has saved her from falling, she slowly starts to open her eyes and saw him stares at her without blinking his eyelashes.
Author's POV: She stands in front of Smaran."Niyati, all teachers and students are waiting. Quickly tell me the name of the movie", He asked smiling."Sir...Actually", She stops speaking in a trembling voice."Quickly tell, Niyati", He again asks smiling."Sir...Actually", Niyati then becomes nervous."What happened? is there any problem ?", He asks expressing concern, looking at her panicked face."Sir...Woh", she tries to speak the name of the film."Say, what is the name of the Movie?", He again asks in a calm voice."Sir, the name of the movie is - I Love You", As soon as the last three words come out of her mouth, she starts feeling strange. She feels as if she is not only telling him the name of the movie but also speaking her heart.He is surprised to hear these words from her mouth. She ga
Author's POV:"Niyati, have you thought anything?", Mitali asked seriously."What about? "She asked instinctively.The two were talking before their first lecture began."About Sir ... Smaran Sir", She replied with concern.""No, yarr, I'm still confused how do he feel? I mean what would I tell her and how would he react? ", She expressed her concern in front of Mitali."Whatever happens will be good, you just tell him your feelings before it is too late", Mitali tries to understand her."What do you mean?", she asked confused."I mean it doesn't take time for something to go wrong so you should talk to him", Mitali said with a smile and she nodded."Good morning ", Suddenly Kajal came in front of them and wished them."Good morning ", They both turned to her and said in unison with a smile.
Author's POV :"What?", Niyati blurted just one word, that too with shocking expressions on her face, and then she started asking her with the same sentiments, "Have you gone mad? What are you saying? Just a few months ago, he joined the school. How can he leave school so soon? You have some misunderstanding", She said to her with confidence."No Niyati, I'm speaking right. I'm just now coming to hear the conversation of Smaran Sir and Charan Sir. He was telling Charan sir that he got a job in a company, but that company gave him that job in another city because of which they have to go to that city.He is also quitting his call center job and teaching in our school", Mitali told her everything in detail, which brought tears in her eyes which didn't go unnoticed by Mitali."Niyati see, you don't get upset, we will talk to him and won't let him go anywhere", Mitali encouraged her, but Niyati d
Author's POV :The next day, Niyati was going towards class thinking of Mitali's talk the previous evening. She was passing in front of the staff room. Did she think that why not once she saw Smaran through the glass door? So she stood in front of the door and started looking inside. She was a little happy to hear the ending of Gauri and Smaran's relationship. But as soon as she saw the staff room scene, she was surprised to see it. There were not many teachers in the staff room of science. Apart from Smaran, all the teachers used to come at the exact time. She thought that this time he would be alone in the staff room, but Gauri was also standing there with him and she held Smaran's hand in her hands and was speaking something lovingly while looking at her. Smaran was also answering his words then suddenly she hugged him.Niyati's tears welled on seeing this. She felt that after their relationship ended, he would not have a
