" Hi" Shaheer beamed as Avneet opened the door.
"Hi.. How come.." she was interrupted by her mother's voice, " Shaheer beta come, come.. " she turned towards Avneet.
" He is your music teacher."
" Oh! Wow, that's great." her tone changed and this time Avneet was replaced by ANAMIKA.
They went inside Avneet/Anamika's room.
"Beautiful!" Shaheer exclaimed.
"Who? "
"You, I mean room! "
"Thank you "
"So let's begin the classes. "
Shaheer picked up the guitar.
"OK! " he started.
" So,  it is known as 'pick'" he said while showing her a triangular chip.
He continued, " there are 6 strings from down we call them EADGBE, there is one acronym for it-Every Boy And Girl Date After Easter. "
" Seriously!! So will you go! " she smiled.
" Yes!  Of course.." he spoke softly
" With whom? " she asked nervously.
"Guess..."
" Jessi.. " she spoke very softly inaudible for him.
"What! Pardon please. "
" Jessica"
Shaheer chuckled.
" Jessi.. Neva.. Ya! I may no.. No.. I can.. Sorry I will. "
" You will go on date with her.. Are you sure! " she asked him hesitantly.
" What do you want, I should go on a date with you!" He leaned forward towards her, Anamika was lost in his eyes, butterflies started to swarm in her stomach, she wanted to speak, but words were stick in her mouth.
" Snack time!! " Anamika's mother interrupted their conversation.
" Thank you Auntie but I don't want it." Shaheer politely refused.
" I'm keeping it here, if you both want you can eat. " she left.
" OK! So, let's be serious, so pick up the 'pick'and hold it like this. "
They both smiled.
" You are impossible! Shaheer. " she commented.
" Yes, I'm sort of but not for you! "
"Really!! "she blushed.

" Guitar lessons... Coffee shop...inter school competition..why can't I remember anything.. What has happened to me. " she shouted at herself.
She was standing before the mirror, noticing the changes through which she was going both physically and mentally. Her dark circles deepened as if she had many sleepless nights. She lost a lot of weight. She was becoming skinny day by day.
