It was just that she did not have time to celebrate.
`Where are you? I'm waiting for you!' Shreya said on the phone.
`I'm just getting there. Five minutes,' Natasha replied. When in reality, she was sitting on the couch with her legs up on the table.
`Be here in five or else I will kill you.'
The only time when Shreya threatened, was to make Natasha study. Just like while preparing for the quiz, Shreya kept forcing Natasha to study. Meanwhile, Natasha tried to stay as far away from her books till the time she could afford to. Right then, she could not. Their half-yearly exams started the next day. And she did not know a word about the subject. Chemistry.
`Okay. Honestly now-I'm still at home. I'll be there in half an hour. Promise,' she said and hung up before Shreya got a chance to shout at her again. `And Vicky insisted. He wants to study with us. I told you he likes you. Be kind to him.'
Shreya kept the phone down before Natasha could react. Shreya was still on a mission to turn Natasha into a good person. Natasha was trying her best to reject the change. But she knew it was a lost battle. Natasha had a simple formula. Don't make new enemies. But maintain the old ones. She was still looking for a way to destroy Ananya! But if she kept letting Shreya influence her, she was sure she would turn into a good girl. The though terrorized her nights' sleep.
Her only consolation was-she was making a few changes in Shreya, too. Like for example-Shreya had moved on from saying crap to saying shit.
That's progress.
