Joshua POV
"Joshua! Joshua! What you doing" suddenly I heard Babi screaming over me. I was astounded for few minutes then I came back to my senses. Dream... that was damn dream... off course that was. I happens to be that my mind was being little bitch. The devastation was literal all over my face.
"What happened? I thought we were taking a break." Babi screamed at me again except this time her louder than last time. I had to save my face and rationalize my behaviour.
” stop yelling!! I ain't anywhere. Just right here. I was thinking what I am doing here with all those stupid books and all? "
“Hey you stop throwing an attitude. You are not alone sitting here at almost three" her face was telling how much she was hurt with my words. That’s when I realized how rude I was. She was awake at this hour for me.
"Sorry sorry, it’s just I couldn't get this question and
BABI POVBut It doesn’t matter how I feel. What matters is that other person doesn’t care, so I had to refrain myself from letting out my true feeling and “ pretend” to be ok. While I was held up in figuring out my feelings for him, he was planning his future. I felt like a fool to waste my time over him. This taught people first think of whats best for them, not about you and if you are smart you will also do the same.“ babi! babi! what happened? What are you thinking? Say something darling….” Funny enough he dared to ask me what happened when all was happening infront of him and he still managed to un see it. I feel like I would waste my energy if I try to reason with him. “nothing… when are you guys planning to leave?”“after this semester but I had to get gpa above 9.00. its really tuff. I am thinking about leaving swimming club. I mean I have to leave it anyway.&rdq
Babi povI was about to depart but I couldn’t help but observe her. I know she hates being alone, especially at night but that thing is destroying her from the inside. If I swoop in now, there is nothing that she is gonna learn from that. I made a hard decision and left.I decided to stay and have some drinks. I really needed something stronger for the things I have to deal with. I parked my motorbike in the parking zone and went in. I decided to have just one or two drinks since papa has probably returned.“ two tequilas please”The waiter gave me two shots of tequila. I gulped them in one go. But in no time. Those two shots became ten. Luckily I don’t get drunk easily and I have such a good tolerance for drinks, it didn’t affect me at all. I decided to stop myself at a tenth shot and go back home now. The way back home has never seemed that long like today. Today was a long day for me, all day with the test and Josh. Suddenly I remember papa was
Babi povI went in to change but I wanted to take a shower so I headed towards the washroom. Maybe it was because of tequila I wasn’t feeling a little bit dizzy. I felt like I was walking on a tight-fitted rope. My mind was under full control but my body was on its own. It wasn’t working as it planned. I saw soap lying on the floor and I panicked like hell. It was already really hard to walk straight, and as soon as I saw soap, in an attempt to dodge it I fell on the floor really badly.“aahhhhhhh!” I can't tell you in words how much painful that felt. I saw Andrew running towards me.“what happened? I told you to be careful, why the hell are you in here? I told you to hurry and here you are in a towel.”“can you please stop expounding for a second and help me get up. It is really painful.”“ok ok… I will”Then he helped me get up and then I sat up on the bench.“ babi
Babi povThe fact that Joshua sent him completely sobered me up. I kept thinking about that on the way home. I reached home in no time and found that papa still hasn’t returned home. his activities these days concern me. I mean what is his actions have been suspicious lately. He comes less often, talks less, always thinking. in my whole life, I have never seen him like that. He also never told me about his past and what made him leave his own country. There has to be a big reason for a person to leave his own motherland. As a kid, I never thought of that but these days I keep wondering about that. What if he is in deep trouble? What if he needs help? He is my only family. I don’t want to lose him. I went inside my house, it felt so cold like a dead cold. It didn’t feel like a house, it felt like a cabin with no warmth, and with the warmth, I don’t mean heat, I mean heat. Today is proving to be the worst day of my life.I sat over the floor and my eyes were oozing out of tears.
Five years later… “Come on Babi we have to leave, we are getting late for classes” “Jjjust there!!! Joshua.” Sound of running echoed the full main gate. THUD! A loud sound followed with the last one, making Joshua run towards the sound. He sprinted as he knew what that was all about. “Babi when will you stop being careless and week.” Joshua said while picking her up from ground. “You said to hurry up” Babi said while trying to get up with Joshua’s help. She all the stuff from her bag was on the floor. Joshua made her sit on the guard’s chair and picked her books and other stuff along with bag. “I didn’t say to die while running, besides it not first time you were on the ground? In fact it happens a lot.” Joshua was still scolding her suddenly she started crying. Clearly he didn’t expect her to cry. He quickly ran towards her and started wiping tears followed by speaking in a rather soft tone, “why are you crying again? Haven’t I told you not to cry? It’s been more than four ye
They were getting really closer to each other. Suddenly they heard Frencheska’s voice. They both left each other others hands which had almost turned into an embrace. They saw her coming from far while holding so much food. Joshua quickly ran to help her.They both returned to the table, “wow! It was a long queue, next time I am telling you guys either of you is going to get food. I am not gonna stand again on that long queue of people. “ how about we should start eating because I am really hungry?” Babi said to both of the bickering people. Soon they all started eating. Babi ordered her usual sandwich “I will never get enough of this sandwich. I just love it.” Franchesca said with a delighted mood. In a short period Babi and Frencheska have become really close to each other. They have developed a bond that every girl needs in her life. Babi knows and everything about Frencheska like how her past boyfriend ditched her and how she took her revenge. She is no simple girl
Chapter 17JOSHUA POVThis was my first time being close to someone other than Babi, but I feel like I needed it because I have to get accept the fact that the one she loves will always be my brother no matter what. I have to give myself a break from constantly loving her. I have to say I didn’t enjoy her company and she means nothing to me. she is just a distraction for me. I don’t want to impose my feeling on Babi knowing the fact that she has already gone through so much but that doesn’t I can just stop loving her. taking care of her is getting harder and harder for me due to the fact that I can't control my feelings. I have to find other ways to distract myself. I didn’t enjoy today’s company and whenever I closed my eyes I couldn’t stop imagining Babi on her. I kept on remembering her sweet touch, whenever she rolls her hand over my hair shivers run through my whole body, I just want to grab her and kiss her so hard but I can't. I know she loves me but that is
“Hello Babi darling, it has been so long since you have been here, where have you been” said Josh’s mother as soon as she saw Babi at the front door of her house.Mrs. Crane adores Babi so much as she doesn’t have a girl child. She only has two boys Josh and Josha. She has known Babi since she was seven when she moved to states with her single father. Babi doesn’t have mother, so she has been a mother figure for Babi since then.Babi hasn’t visited their home for like a month and Mrs. Crane feels like she hasn’t seen Babi since ages.“Mom can you stop saying those cheesy lines. We are adults now. Babi come here.” Josh yelled from his room while rolling his eyes in the air.“So what you are adults. She is still kid to me and why is she coming here after a month?” Mrs. Crane.“I don’t know ask her.” Josh said with a grumpy face.“N

JOSHUA POV “Ok, don’t waste more time huh” I said to her while walking upstairs. I went inside her room. It was just like it always has been small cozy place. Strange thing is I feel more comfortable has been. May be because of the person it belongs. It had small comfy bed with dark coloured sheets covering all over it. I sat on the bean bag near the bed. After five minutes, she came with a plate of food. Strangely we never conversed about me being hungry but somehow she already knew. My heart skipped a beat. “Who told you I was hungry?” regardless of the feelings. I decided to throw a pun to cover my mushy feelings. “So you are telling me you ate already? I know you haven’t. But if you saw so!” she said while placing the tray over table and sitting on the other bag. “I will have them.” I saw she prepared my favourite bacon cheese sandwich with mustard sauce and noodles with no soya sauce. She knows my taste bud very accurately. Sh
