Rishi's POV 

" shit " 

That was the instant word that came out of my mouth without any notice. 

I cursed loud enough that some of the students who were engrossed in their little circle, turned at us and then looked at the spilled coffee on the floor. 

scratching the back of my neck I gave them a lipped smile glancing around and they were like ' we don't care bro' and resumed their respective jobs - eating and chatting. 

" I'm sorry " I said in a lower tone watching her quizzing shut her eyes as if she was collecting her memory, and the next second she opened them and oozed me with her electrifying eyes. 

I couldn't help but stare at her like a creep.

    Rishi's POVThe word 'Happy' is very less in many terms compared to what I am right now. There's so much going on inside me, all at once and I'm just smiling like a fool.My heart is at ease, I'm feeling full even though I haven't had dinner yet. I can observe my nerves slowly peeking up its speed and again falling into peace in every changing minute. I feel so fresh, the flashes, blood and bones in my body feels fresh as if I'm a new born baby. The thumping of my heart keeps me awake at night and I'm not even complaining because sleep is secondary if I've so much time and peace to think, and keep re-thinking about every little thing that makes me smile, a wider smile that I thought I would never see in myself until I met her.Of course I was a happy soul before meeting her, I smiled and laughed a lot ge

I looked out the window stretching my arms, the large clouds were moving, changing into a darker form. The beautiful cocktail blue shade was beginning to darken into gravel-grey. large pillows of cloud were forming, blotting out the old gold colour of the sun. The mud smell hit my nostrils, passing a chill through my veins.feeling fresh and active i woke up and sat on bed. Rubbing my eyes and face i looked at the wall clock and hit my forehead " Shit, i'm late " cursing my useless friend Ram for not waking me up i horridly got down from bed and " AAAHHH.......OUCH"I was on the floor, rubbing my butt, because I fell down due to the clumsy duvet that was wrapped around my legs.

If anything I want at this moment, then it would be a place where I can hide myself for eternity. "gosh...….why i'm like this " I stopped rolling as I sat on bed and took my hands away from my face, and a sheepish grin was plastered on my face which I hate. being red-faced embarrassed silly girls, I took a hold of my phone and gathered my guts to switch it on. The phone screen splashed with bright light and there appeared an Apple logo as it switched on. Taking long breaths, I finally made up my mind to face the consequences. biting my lips and chewing my nails I opened the inbox cursing myself mentally for losing control over my mind at weird hours of night. yes, it's 2:15 of night and my happy hormones just fucked me up.

Did you enjoy it ?" the first thing she asked me as we took out seats. " Yeah, it went well. like every time " i said remembering how good my birthday went this year, only because of her. Breathtaking, she looked Breathtakingly beautiful. her eyes were fixed on the menu card, and my eyes were fixed on her. I tried to keep my facial expression stable, but I failed. i can't blame myself for that because today she's looking like an angel who walked down from heaven. As we took our seats, a waiter came and took our order.

    Author’s POV “ How come I had no clue about your feelings towards me ? Was I that ignorant in those days ? “ Asked Anu blankly, staring at the ceiling of her room while her fingers played with the ends of her wavy hairs. The chillness of her hairs wetted Sid’s pink Ryamon cotton shirt as her head was placed on his stomach, while both of them were laying on her bed in mid afternoon to take a nap before Ria returned from her school. Once she gets home, it’s hard for both of them to take a moment of rest since Ria has become more mischievous nowadays and all appreciation goes to Sid who is spoiling her with all his rights. “ Because I was a good pretender…. “ Replied Sid who was also staring at the blank space of the ceiling. His fingers aimlessly tangled between the layers of her hairs while his other hand was placed under his head. The room was so peaceful for their own mood that none of them wanted to break this moment. The soft white curtains moved back and forth as Slow b
