Nicole's Tales Within Silence : Page 4

She didn't sleep that night, no it was not insomnia rather she loved sleeping , but peter was someone who was again and again playing up in her mind. The days of her previous school the memories she never wanted to revisit came on her doorsteps themselves. " I changed the chapter mehn! " she said and her inner voice gave a spontaneous reply " But the book is still on right ? " It was a sleepy morning for her, she woke up late didn't dance in shower wore whatever she saw first and went straight to the school without taking breakfast. Another day another tale another lesson she thought.
She was late for Martha R. Jones's lecture . She went straight into the classroom and seeing all seats occupied she went to the last desk and  sat. Ms Martha noticed that something is wrong with Nicole and didn't scold her for being late.
As the Lecture ended Nicole noticed a piece of paper on her desk which was Much like a NOTE for someone. She opened it and there she realized that it was Pet's writing. "He still writes with commas, exclamation signs and emoticons" she thought with a smile in her thoughts. It was written :
                                        HY ! :)
                                        Coffee?? ^_^
She was able to read the note in peter's voice and could make out the way he would have wrote it. She scribbled something and looked around but there was no sign of Peter in the class. she got worried. Looked again and even asked from the boy with whom Peter was sitting last day. he did not have a clue. She got more tensed and then Mr. Raman arrived for the lecture. "goodmorning " he said in a usual tone. Nicole continued to look around with her frown face ! Raman asked her that if everything was okay. " Sir, " she looked out and There was Peter with a bunch of books Raman asked him to get from the library. "Yes Sir." she finally relieved. Everyone sat and Peter started distributing the books, " one for a pair , common make partners children! " Said Mr. Raman cheerfully. As the books got distributed. there was only one left for Nicole and Peter. Mr. Raman winked at Peter and said " Lucky ! " Peter just smiled. He sat next to her and as he just sat. Nicole exclaimed like an Angry wife, " Lucky means what? What did you tell to this Asiatic loon?"
"nice name " Peter said in one go. "I asked something Mr. PETER." she growled again. "Nothing,Nothing did I say" He mumbled. "He just sensed it " He added. and picked up the note he left. He opened it and folded it back. And had a nostalgic face in the whole lecture. Nicole was no more angry on him and she accidentally kept her hand twice on Peter's Fingers while looking into  the book. Both felt the Warmth. Both knew the Touch. Both had butterflies. Newborn but bigger this time. Both went to the Cafeteria together after the lecture. Leaving the note which read:
                                            HY! :)
                                            Coffee?? ^_^
                                                           i will pay.
  They sat on the White chairs of the white house, at least the feel was the same. Peter had already ordered for both. Nicole asked him about his family and usual stuff. and there was a very normal conversation and the bill was paid by Nicole. "Feminist NIC ! " he exclaimed in flow and then stopped at once. Nicole smiled. And then he added " My feminist, My nic ? " He gave her a look of questioning But she looked away. " It was not easy for me then too, and it isn't easy for me now also." She said in a deep broken voice. " But this time I wanna be with you Nic." The boy with black eyes had a teardrop which expressed everything. Nicole just said " see you tomorrow!" and started walking. Peter waited and then shouted " I live behind your house now, can I take the same way?" Nicole asked him that why is he asking her then. " You refused last day !" And both laughed with teary eyes.  He walked with her. or rather She walked with him. Waved and parted ways.
"She still laugh in that wild tone." He blushed.
"Pet , He will always be ! He is buttering Raman. My teacher's pet Pet." She stopped and just then went straight. Nothing killed her from inside now. Butterflies have returned.
