He was at home. So mixed up in his feelings. His emotions were driving him crazy. Happiness, pain, anger, hyperness, excitement. He was feeling that all at the same time. And he was really angry at her. Kya jaroorat thi, itana bada step lene ki? Are you crazy? He was frustrated.
He had leaved early from the party after knowing the truth from Shivam. He had not even met Taani, because he didn't want another row with her. He needed to calm himself first.
No Rey. Calm yourself. Just calm. Firstly I will relax then I will have a calm headed convorsation with her.This was the reason why he came early to home. He didn't want to hurt her again. So first he was going to relax himself and then tomorrow in college, he will apologize to her in a gentleman manner.
He heard a call coming in. His father was calling him. Dad? Okay.
Rey: Hey dad
Dad: Hey romeo. How's it going?
Rey: Great. How are you?
Dad: Great. Great. So, how does it feel to Dance again?
Rey: Awsome. Thank you for taking our side in the meeting dad.
Dad: No thanking me. Jo bhi kiya tum logo ne kiya. I am very proud of you my son.
Rey: Yeah. Hey that reminds me. (For a first hand update about the meeting) Aapki meeting kesi rahi. I mean trustees ke sath ki. How.. how was everything?
Dad: Yeah, it was great. I was all in favor of you. But it was not much needed. Your student representative took care of it. Nice girl.
Rey: Yeah? Really? And she won against Khushboo maam? That's hard to believe. I wish I could have been there. I would have really like to see that. (Hoping hoping I can see the meeting video)
Dad: Well, if that's so. Then you could see the video. I mean it is not really against the rules. You want to?
Rey: (congrats Rey) Yeah of course dad. Can you send me a mail of it.
Dad: Cool. I am sending it right now. And beta, are you coming here for Diwali. We miss you. It's been so long ki we have not spend time together.
Rey: I know dad. But you know. I am not sure about it yet. I'll talk to you later about it. Umm. send the video okay?
Dad: Done that. Okay bye then.
Rey: Bye dad.
Finally. COngratulations Rey. This would be really fun to see.
He checked the video.
Firstly there was just speech and introductions. After that Taani was called for a presentation on Students matters. He gawked at her. He never realised when Taani became such proud and confident girl. She had an aura of a powerful presentor. Someone who you would not like to go against. He smiled feeling proud of her.
She gave her presentation. She talked about the Student matters. What was dance to them, The reason for rule breaking, Dance camp, their fight, their opinions etc. It was a very impressive presentation. Rey was glad he was not in the shoes of one of the trustees and especially Khushboo maam. He knew Taani had talent. Maybe not in dance, but she was really great in administration. He had noticed this especially since she was the GS that when Taani spoke, people tend to listen. Her speech always had the quality that made people accept everything without thinking twice.
Rey also felt her charm. Everytime. Whenever she spoke, he felt like agreeing without thinking even once about it. She was not like those rude persons who used other means to make others agree. She gave improtance to others and their opinions. She always spoke with logic and absolute truth. It was really hard to be against her. He had found that since she became GS.
He saw Khushboo maam taking offence on some sides of her and she defended their case in a clean manner with respect evident in her voice.
Taani made her points very clear. She said very clearly that she understands that dance is not the most important thing for St. Louis. But St. Louis has always encouraged students to explore their area of expertise and she feels that dance is one of them. This Dance Ban is affecting the students life, not only those who considers dance as their career, but also those who are in other fields. It is creating drifts between students. Other fields should be considered, but she made a humble request to not to ignore dance. St. Louis was very famous because of Dance. They had won footloose twice and three national dance champions were in the college. It would be unwise to just ban dance. Other activities should be given importance, but that does not mean that dance should be banned. A balance is required in the college. Maybe seven persons who were sent to Dance Camp had failed, but three had won. So, it was not the solution to just remove dance from the college. We cannot give up because of one failure, but they should be given more encouragement to follow their dream. Because all in all dance is their plus point. She made every point very clear.
Rey was listening to her speech in owe. Amazing. He thought, he should let the team see it too. Especially Swayam. He will feel so proud. But firstly I will have to talk to Taani. He was not angry anymore. He was very proud of Taani.
