Shubha? It Was You!

Today classes were a sleepy affair. I was up till 2 am last night reading a Sydney Sheldon book (now that I think about it, I feel I should have gone to sleep!). So, you can probably guess my condition when I woke up in the morning at 7:30... Gawd! Seriously haggard! Still I managed to reach college without any accidents. Whew! Shubha also, as usual, missed the first period (her idea of back-up, the same message to three people- "First period proxy, please!"). When I asked her about it, she told me the same thing, "I'm darn sleepy, yaar!" and we ended up bunking ND sir's period (the maths teacher) and listening to mp3 sitting on the stairs. Suddenly, Shubha told me, "Hey! Listen to this song. I know it's slow but I think you'll like it." She pushed both the earphones into my ears and told Sola she's next in line. I listened quietly, trying to understand which song it is. It was "You say it best, when you say nothing at all..." I had never heard it before and liked it quite a lot, wondering who is the artist. I said to Shubha, "It's damn nice, man! Who's the artist?" And she answered, "Me."
It took me and Sola a few long seconds to register what she had said, and when we did, all we could do was gape at her. She smiled and said, "I recorded it for Sulagno, he liked it." (By the way, today completes three months of their relationship. This guy even got her a cake to celebrate! So sweet!) Sola grabbed at the player and started listening. The more she listened, the more pronounced was her "Wow!" "How did you manage to do it?" I asked. "I mean, the music and all..." "Just downloaded the karaoke file from internet, played it and sang along," she said simply. And here I was, wondering if its Avril Lavigne! Hehe... :)
