Unfinished Story!!

We were 3 people, me, vinod and Isaq. Anyone looking at us could easily say that we were quite different physically compared to each other. Isaq was a muscular guy who was a regular gym goer; his swagger when he used to walk exaggerated his appearance. The only thing that he hated in life was missing out a day in the gym. However the person inside him was a scary human being, but he disguised his fears to perfection and only people close to him knew about him very well. Vinod was tall with very slim personality and was very dark in appearance. His spectacles made him look like a person burdened with the responsibilities of the world. He was an honest human being and always looked calm and thinking. I stood at five and a half feet with an average body and always a confidence in face that made people wonder if it was genuine. I was the most vocal fellow of the three of us, always ready to discuss and debate any topic, always ready for anything without weighing the consequences. We three used to be together most of the times and also knew very well about each other.

Being an Engineering students, we were the limit in terms of laziness, Fun, passing time at the Canteen and irrelevant gossips. The only time when we ever opened our books was during exams, I with an exception that I used to open it only at the time of semester exams. They used to come prepared for the internals and used to tell me some important points just before the exam used to commence. Getting 12 marks out of 20 was our priority; however Vinod and Isaq were a bit serious and always prepared for the exam with an aim of scoring above fifteen marks. I was often reminded by lecturers about my overconfidence and that I may screw up my life very badly. Even my ignorance and fussy nature of my studies annoyed me when the results were declared every semester. I was clearing all the subjects of my semester but was only able to manage average marks, a mere Sixty percent and above, never touching seventy. In the start of every semester I used to promise myself that I would score eighty percent, I had this confidence because I was clearing my subjects without much effort and by just studying before the day of exam.

But that Monday changed our lives forever!

To b continued!!
