“He is out of danger. He just has some injuries on this<br />

head and a broken leg. He is going to be fine. Wh<strong>at</strong> I<br />

don’t understand is how he didn’t get more hurt? He fell<br />

from the roof right??”<br />

“Yes th<strong>at</strong> is correct but fortun<strong>at</strong>ely there was<br />

construction going on behind the B-wing and the<br />

workers had dug up the whole area and put in w<strong>at</strong>er in<br />

it. It was practically a mud pond th<strong>at</strong> the guy fell into.”<br />

Replied Chashmish<br />

“Good Good. Well you guys can give a tre<strong>at</strong> to the<br />

workers when they come back tomorrow. I have put<br />

th<strong>at</strong> guy to sleep. All of you can now go and take rest”<br />

The crowd dispersed in a jiffy. The seven of them<br />

started making their way back from the Health center to<br />

the hostel. They were just crossing the intersection in<br />

front of the girl’s hostel when Chashmish said<br />

“I think we should keep the promise th<strong>at</strong> we made”<br />

This st<strong>at</strong>ement of Chashmish sparked off an intense<br />

deb<strong>at</strong>e between two factions in the group. One faction<br />

which considered the promise to be something they<br />

gave to a delirious guy in order to make him feel better<br />

was not so keen on taking it seriously. The other felt like<br />

doing it just to keep their word. Chashmish led the<br />

second faction and made some significant points which<br />

eventually made the entire group to agree on keeping<br />

up the promise. Although the first faction agreed<br />

extremely reluctantly Chashmish did not care as long as<br />

they did.
