Two months later.
"Are you ready yet?"
"Yup. Almost."
"You better come out in the next ten seconds",I hiss, jumping up and down to hold my pee.
"Yeah. Yeah. Wait a sec."
"You're so annoying Anshu",I complain.
"Get in before your bladder bursts",she rolls her eyes as she walks out.
I relieve my bladder,sighing in content. I scowl at my reflection, irritated when the dupatta was off it's place. It was so hard to wear one on a cold shoulder dress.
"Are you girls ready yet?",I hear Avyukt
I snap my fingers, trying to get attention,"Where are you lost Anshu?"She only shakes her head,sighing loudly,shutting the books in front of her.I roll my eyes,"Don't tell me you and Avyukth fought again. You guys literally patched up two days ago."My best friend rolls her eyes, tapping the pen on the table."Sandy, I'm going to ask you something. Will you give me an honest answer?""Sounds very interesting",I pull my chair towards her,"Are you going to use an hourglass?""It's not funny.""Ask away",I say bored."Do you still
There's a pause in my steps when I hear a suspiciously familiar voice, surprised."Have a good day! Bye",Waves Ananya at her brother,who only smiles,nodding his head,as he stands there watching her zoom past the gate in her car,out of sight.I didn't know why I did what I did next,but my steps became hurried, hoping Nikhil didn't see me.I sigh when I was almost in safe zone, cursing myself when I look into the glass beside the entrance to see Nikhil looking up in surprise at the exactsametime.Our eyes meet in the mirror. I groan,turning around,"Hey",I give him a small smile,my lips thin."Hi",he smiles,"I joined as an SR",Nihkil fills me up.
"Yes. Idolove you",I say, exasperated."No. It'snotlike that",I continue, irritated.I balance the mobile between my ear and shoulder, continuing my work."Of course not!",I exclaim,"I just didn't think it was necessary."I wince when I hear a loud screech, pulling the phone away from my ear."You lied to me."I roll my eyes,"Don't be dramatic."When there's a longer than necessary pause,I huff,"Stop it Sne.I really didn't find it important enough to worry you about it."My darling sister,
I look up at the heavens, as if silently asking for help.Orglaring at the universe.Whicheverworks.I kick the punctured tire of my two wheeler, irritated beyond belief.Why didn't Ijustbook a cab.To the supermarket.I look around,feeling helpless.I was beginning to get odd looks from passerbys every few minutes. There weren't many people at this time,but the ones passing by would make sure to just glance my way and continue their journey.Thanks Universe,for letti
Dhruv grabs my arms roughly. "Look me in the eye and tell me you didn't spend that night with Nayan",he hisses.Both of us don't acknowledge my bike that falls onto the ground with a thud."I did",I mumble.Dhruv lets my hands go,making me stumble."But",I panic, holding his arm,"It'snotthe way you think."My heart breaks at the decieved look he gives me,"WhatdidI do wrong Sandy?",his voice breaks,"We weresohappy."Panic consumes me as I turn him to me,"You have to believe me Dhruv",I shake his shoulders,"I...I agree I and Nayan shared a room that day, butnothi
"So?"I raise an eyebrow, glancing at her sideways from theVampire Diaries."So,what?"Anshu glares at me, throwing a pillow on my head."I don't know man",I lean my head against the dashboard."I haven't really thought through it.""How could younot?""I felt veryliberatedafter telling him, you know. But that's that. I kinda shut myself so I don't think about Dhruv anymore.""Avoiding and running aways from problems is not the solution.""Yeah",I mumble,"Bu
There's a hop in my steps,in spite of the hollow in my heart.Dhruv.Dhruv.Dhruv."Oh shut up",I snap at free air, irritated.Maybe I should just hook up with a random guy.Yes. That's it.Maybe I should try the Friends with Benefits kind of thing.Don't be absurd, Sandy. When did Friends with benefits workout,for anyone?It doesn't even workout inmovies.I glare at the file I'm reading,not absorbing aword.
When the sun shines, we'll shine togetherTold you I'll be here foreverSaid I'll always be your friendTook an oath, I'ma stick it out 'til the endNow that it's raining more than everKnow that we'll still have each other.I sing the lyrics to myself,scrubbingmy feet when I hear a knock on the bathroom door."I know you aresograteful you have a friend like me that you couldweepat my feet. There's no need to dedicate a song for me",I hear Anshu's annoying voice through the door,"But can you hurryup!?"I roll my eyes,"Dream on."I hum the lyrics to myself, scrubbing my skin as I w
