Finally , we left for our Camp. I made sure that I had the book with me.It had the most important letter of my life which would decide the relationship between Mandeep and me.β€œSandy ,dude,don’t get scared,” Andy said to me.

Life is an enigma for me.I have met many people in my life. Some were friendly and some who ignored me most often.Getting Andy as my friend is one of the most luckiest thing that I have in my life. He is my alter ego and my roomie since many years.

β€œYar Sandy ,where were you ?,” Mandy came running towards me as we reached the destination.

β€œNo, yar actually we were late ,” I replied.

β€œUff, dude today is the last time we people are going to meet ,” She said.

β€œYes,Mandy,” I replied.

β€œI wish these days could remain forever and yes we should meet again in future,” I added.

β€œUllu ,Buddhu, we will,” She grabbed my hand and took me to introduce her other friends.

β€œAndy! come with me na,” I asked Andy to accompany me.

β€œAndy,tu bhi aaja !,” Mandy said to Anandit.

We reached the place. She took us to meet her friends.It was a precious moment for her.β€œSandeep,do you have the letter with you,”Andy asked me.

β€œYes ,I do,” I replied.

“Give it to her,” he impatiently said to me.

β€œYaar,ok I will,” I said.

β€œDisha and Parul meet my friend Sandeep,” Mandeep introduced me to her friends Disha and Parul. They once used to be her school friend. β€œThis Parul,the pink babe from Kashmir used to be a naughy girl during school days,” Mandeep winked.

β€œNow see her,damn beautiful she is naa, Andy,” She said.

“True,Mandy.Your friends are as beautiful as you,” Andy replied. I was scared and I could not open my mouth .I had the letter with me ,but I didn’t had the courage to confess my love to her.Meanwhile Mandeep was searching for some one. May be she was looking for her other friends whom I didn’t knew.

β€œAbhey should I tell her everything,” Andy said to me.

β€œNo, I will tell,” I was nervous.

Some unwanted thoughts were running through my mind.

What if she says no? and what if she stops talking to me. I didn’t want to lose her friendship.

After few minutes I went close to her.

β€œHang on Sandy ,I’ll come back,” she said and left.

After 10 minutes she came with some Sikh sardar . β€œAchha,bol de saale,” Andy was insisting me to tell my love for her.

β€œYaar,ok ,” I told and I removed the letter from my pocket.

β€œSandy my baby, meet my fiance Manpreet Singh,” She said.

Tears came out of my eyes suddenly.It felt as if the sad breeze had brushed me. I was feeling low and sad. I was broken from within.

β€œHi, Manpreet,” I wished him. After few hours,both me and Andy left for the hostel.

He removed the letter from my pocket and tore it into peices.

β€œShe is not lucky dude,” Andy said to me.

β€œProbably she didn’t deserve you ,” he added.

β€œYou rock man,don’t get dishartened .You have your good buddies with you,” he said to me.

I felt like crying and I cried to the core. It was the first time I was crying after long.I was not a cry baby and never wanted to be one.I always wanted to see smiles on people’s faces. But now there was no one to soothe me.

Later Mandeep had called me.I refused to pick up her phone call.

After few minutes I got an sms.

β€œManpreet and me are getting married soon,you are invited. Love you Sandy baby.tc.gn.sd.god bless”

The next day I left for my home town in Delhi. I left uninformed.
