1. The One Where I Humiliated Myself

[ A L I N A ' S P O V ] "I don't think I can do this," I mumbled to the phone, clutching it tightly under my grip. My words seemed shaken, my hands seemed shaken. Huh, the whole of me was shaken to the core. The white tall building sat across me with its intimidating look . The students peered in and out, some in groups others lonely like me, trying to adjust to the first day of college. College. Finally, I was in college, away from my family and learning to live on my own even if I had been doing it since a long time ago. I closed my eyes and scolded myself for thinking about it again. It was a new start, a new place and a new dream. It was College. All I had to do was enjoy like any other adolescent, make friends and live my life to fullest even if it meant I had to pretend about it. No more sadness, tears and the pain of the past. "You're worrying for no reason," he said from the other side. "It isn't that bad. Just some seniors bonding with juniors." I bit my lower lip. "Yo...

2. The One Where I Am Shocked
[ A L I N A 'S P O V ] "Where are you?" Kabir said loudly from the other side of the phone. "I--I--" I couldn't say a word to him while Kriti was busy burying down in her chicken biryani and a bottle of bear. "Not in the college." "What?" He screamed. "Where are you? Are you okay? Are you ambushed?" "Relax, Kabir." As if hearing a boy name, Kriti left her dish and pulled her attention to me with a snarky smile. Ignoring her, I paid attention to my over worrying boyfriend. "I'm very much ambushed by this girl, Kriti." "Where are you? I'm coming," He replied in haste. "I'll be back soon. Don't worry. I talk to you later, bye." I didn't wait for his response before I cut the call and placed it back o the table. I took my fork and started playing with the noodles. I was trying to avoid Kriti, who was looking forward to some news from my side about who was Kabir because one thing I learned about her was that she was very talkative and had a curious mind. She was from Pune, doing t

3. The One Where I Start Over
"Want another?" Kabir asked, grinning at my behavior. Agitated, I threw the tissue box at him but he shifts his body at the right time, letting the box fall across the hall, disappearing into his room. How could he grin at it? "I don't want to stay with her!" I exaggerated. "She tore my book. That was my favorite book. Poor Jace and Clary." Sniffing, I cleaned my cheeks with the help of tissue paper. As soon I had seen my torn book in her hands, I had screamed, like a big scream. All she had to say in her defense was that she lost her mascara. For a mascara, my book had to be killed. What was fair in all of it? So, like a mature girl, I waved it off, but intentionally, I was thinking of inviting my fellow shadow hunters to come and hunt her because she was a demon. A demon who could kill Jace. My book boyfriend. I had even gotten my stele and ruins ready. "But I like that girl." Wearing a smug look, Kabir sat opposite to me. "Some guts she has to tear your book and not even sayin

4. The One Where I Lie
[ K A B I R ' S P O V ]"Yes, mom, I locked the apartment." I rolled my eyes at her constant battering. No matter how much grown up I had become or how many months I had stayed away from home, she would always tell me or more like scold me for being careless.Well, no doubt her worry was valid compared to my behavior in Delhi, but now, I was a responsible man. I had been living in Bangalore for three months, and that conveyed something, but what to do about her. Overworrying Indian moms."Did you eat? Is the chef good?""Mom," I said in a laughing tone. "I'm on top of the world." She sighed from the other end. "How's Nisha?" I asked carefully, gripping the steering wheel tightly under my grip.I should ask more, ask how she was doing at home after everything that happened, ask if she was eating, ask if she started preparing for her exams again, but held everything. I should've been there for her at this point of life, not left to Bangalore. She never left my side, and I left in a min

5. The One Where I Realise
Throwing my bag on the canteen table, I took the nearby chair and slouched on it. I cursed lowly under my breath seeing Grisha barging into the canteen along with her friends at the backside. Frantically, I roamed my gaze around the small packed area, crossing my fingers to save me from the wrath of my girlfriend, and there she came. I ran my hand over my face, chanting all the prayers I had stored in my mind while on the other hand, my friends laughed at my side. Glaring at them to shut up their stupid fiasco, I stood up from my chair and greeted Alina. She sat down next to me, and the longer I stared at her, I realized she had no idea of anything. To confirm my doubts, I looked at Kriti, who passed me a disgusted look and paid attention to her books. Kriti was overreacting. It wasn't like I slept with Grisha. It was just a unharmful dance. "Guess what?" Alina jumped in her seat, clutching my hands in hers. "Mom called last night. Nani and nanu are ready to talk to me." That brou

6. The One Where I Revisit
"In every part of the universe, you're going to stay angry at him?" Kriti mused, but a smirk was apparent on her face. It was amusing for her how Kabir and I were fighting, ignoring each other for past few days.Ignoring her jab, I removed the cover from the flowers and put them in the vase. Glancing down at the rotten flowers, I smoothed down one of their petals with a sad smile. How ironical. We love them at the first, but when they start to wither, they were just a thing of a sore eye. All they desired was love and care of someone to realize how important were they, that once you loved them and you can love them again."I'm not angry at him," I stated, slouching on my hostel bed. "I was at first, but not now. I can see from where he came, but he lied."She hummed, walking steadily around the small room of mine and Fiza. "Good thing she's not here," she said, "She gets on my nerves every single time. How do you handle her?""She has a good heart.""Ah, sweet Alina, thou hast cleft my

7. The One Where I Teach
Paying the cabbie, we hopped off and I stared at the place in front of me."They have the best coffee. Trust me." Swallowing my doubts, I followed her into the place and the sudden smell of coffee made me a dizzy a bit but I controlled it. Too much strong.Looking around the place, I found a table at the corner of the place and pointed my direction to it. Walking through the aisle, we settled and I stared down at the menu."What are-""Hey." Hearing his voice, I clutched the menu tighter and glared at Kriti, who only shrugged her shoulders in reply.What was he doing here? Didn't he have his GYM at this time? And I thought we were on the place of ignoring each other, refusing to acknowledge each other mistakes and behaving stubborn and rooted on our grounds.When I had explained all this to Nisha, she had cursed Kabir and offered to talk to him, but I brushed her off. She had more important problems in her own life, and no matter what happened between us, it was supposed to stay betwee

8. The One Where I Come Back
K A B I R P O V :-Boarding off the plan, I slung my laptop bag tighter around my shoulders and listened to the announcement vibrating above me.Belt 5.There I would get my luggage. My eyes were weary from the lack of the sleep. When I had woken up, I had made up my mind to sleep in the flight, but all thanks to the person sitting next to me who had forgotten to bring his headphones. Being polite, I had even offered my headphones but he had looked at him as if I had done a crime.Whatever.Rubbing my fist against my closed eyes, I followed the directions to the belt 5 and waited for my luggage to come.I should at least call Alina, but wouldn't it be early? She must be getting ready for the college, or still sleeping, as far as I knew her. How would she get to college?College is within walking distance.Yeah, but. I shook my head, endeavoring to shake off the worry laying behind them. It wasn't like she was all alone in Bangalore, and she couldn't handle herself. We were fightin

9. The One Where I Am Confused
"Where is Dhruv?" I asked the house taker, and she pointed her finger to his room. Muttering weak thanks, I climbed up the stairs, jumping one after another. Forgetting all my manners of knocking the door, I opened it with a grin. "I'm bac—Fuck! Damn it! Dhruv yaar! Darwaza toh lock kr lia kr.!" Two bodies scrambled out of the bed. Cursing further, I stepped out of the room and took a deep breath to clear my vision of the horror I had just witnessed. I had seen Dhruv shirtless, but this damn it. Huh! I was going to vomit. "Don't vomit all over the floor." A voice interrupted my thoughts. Pulling my gaze, I saw a lean boy standing in front of me. "Rahul. Hey. You were here?" He nodded. "Left to the living room when I heard the moans. Didn't you hear them?" I shook my head. "I was too excited to meet him. Fuck my eyes." He laughed out loud, slapping my back. I glared at him, shoving his hand off my back. I wonder what his reactions would be to find almost two naked bodies. "I sho

10. The One Where I Face Them
[ A L I N A ' S P O V ]"You should've called your dad." Meenu Auntie chided me as soon as she caught my luggage bag. A frown settled on her face, disappointment covered her whole face, but I ignored it and stared at my wrist and traced the path of the bandage."I did," I said emotionlessly. "He didn't pick up."Called him after a month, called everyone after a month, conveying I would be next week because I was going worried sick about Kabir's mother because I was scared staying alone in the hostel among few girls. I had thought of staying in Kabir's apartment, but then let the thought sail away.See them once and get over it. Get over because you need to.Putting my luggage at the back, she sat back with me and told the cabbie the address to home."What about this secrecy?" She demanded.When nobody had picked up the call, I had called Meenu Auntie, informing her and she was delighted I was coming back. I had told her I would catch a cab, but she hushed down my plans and informed s
