~You were there when my heart fell for you, but you were never there when my heart yearned for you, still, you never got out of my heart~ I thought it was good to leave because it seemed like they were on their date. I turned around suddenly Newt called. 'Prisha, is that you? Wow! what a pleasant surprise..." I slowly turned towards him, forcing a smile, and replied, "Hey! Newt, nice to see you..." "What are you doing here? Where is your friend Kriste? It is a little awkward to see you without her. I have noticed you two going everywhere together be it washroom as well," he mocked chuckling. Even though I didn't found it even a little funny, I forced a smile and replied, "I am just wandering around the town alone. As I was bored staying home. And about Kristen, she might be busy somewhere." "Oh! anyway come and join us. I want to introduce you to my..." "Girlfriend," before his words were completed my mind had already said it loud. so, I hastily interrupted him, "I am so sorry. I need to rush back home. My mom called me twice. Bye..." Before he could react, I was already out of the restaurant at great speed. The sky was covered with heavy black clouds and soon one after another drops of rain drip down along with my tears. I walked few steps but was not able to go any further. I fell on my knees getting weak to stand and slowly eyes got blur. Soon, I collapsed on the ground and before my eyes were forced to shut, I saw someone walking towards me.
View More“Prisha!” Mom's sudden call dragged me back to where I was lying and I couldn’t help getting more panicked.The door to my room was flung wide open and I was numb on the bed, watching her breaking in.“What is wrong, love? Why were you screaming?” she inquired and I hastily darted at Aster, who was above me.But to my surprise, there was no sign of him. ‘Where did he go?’ I mused, pulling myself up and looking around.“Honey, I am talking to you.” Mom moved closer to me.“I…” gulping hard, I tried to find a possible reason to tell her.Getting more alert, she began to move around. “Why are you not saying anything? Tell me what it is?”“There… There was a cockroach,” I stammered, scratching the corner of my forehead.“HONEY!” She rolled her eyes, probably in disappointment.Wrapping my hand around her, I mumbled, “I am sorry to scare you, mom. You know how scared I am of cockroaches.”Shaking her head right to left, she rumbled, “And you scare the hell out of me.”“I am sorry. Now you
After spending the whole afternoon laughing and chattering, Kristen and Tarry left, taking all the charm of my room along with them. The group studies which we were intended to do were lost between our fun but none of us cared about it.When I was left all alone in my room, I leaned on my hands and surveyed my room. Then suddenly I caught sight of the paper bag placed on my nightstand. Reaching out for it, I peeked inside the bag before a big smile appeared on my face.I must admit that Aster was reflecting on his mistake without any miss by taking full care of me. As promised, he had sent me the medicine along with a bar of chocolate.Giving damn care about the medicine, I shoved my hand inside the bag and grabbed the chocolate which was already flooding my mouth with saliva.Then tossing the bag aside, I ripped the packet. Feeling bliss about taking each bite, I kept on eating the chocolate as if there was no promise tomorrow.‘I am sorry,
“Krist! What is taking you so long?” I grumbled, staring at the washroom door. “Just a second,” the reply came from behind the door. “I wonder what you are doing there. You were the type of person who would never delay,” I complained after having to wait for so long, but all I got was a long silence. Another couple of minutes passed by with no sign of Kristen, which pissed me off. Fed up, I got on my feet before grabbing my bag, and preparing to leave. I shouted out loud, “Krist, I am off. Come when you are done,” and without hearing her out, I made my way out. Overcoming the slight pain in my ankle, I made it through the front door and successfully reached the gate. But as soon as I got to the road, I was greeted by Tarry standing before his gate. “Hey! Prisha!” he called out, waving at me. “Hey!” I replied, wondering where he might be heading with his bag. “Where is Kristen?” he asked, glancing at her house. “She is at her house,” I replied and bit my lips. Making his way t
Early in the morning, when the lights penetrated through the window pane and fell on my face, I awoke from my deep sleep. With zero knowledge of where I was, I squinted my eyes.But caring less and loving my sleep more, I shut back my eyes, trying to hop back to my dream dimension, but suddenly my voice echoed inside my head, “I don’t want you to leave, Aster. Please stay!”With a smile on my face, I flipped to the other side but my hand suddenly fell on somebody, sleeping next to me. Sanity breaks in right away, making me aware of everything.The last memory I had was watching the stars with my head resting on Aster’s shoulder. And I didn’t find that good news.‘Did… Did I end up in his bed?’ a voice asked, which added more to my panic attack.Scared to open my eyes and see him next to me, I gulped hard and checked if I was still dressed. Thankfully, I was able to feel my clothes.‘That means I just cuddled with myself,’ my heart was at ease for a second. The next second, it picked u
“Wait a second, don’t tell me you are kidnapping me for taking Newt’s name!” My heart pounded along with the chills crawling on my skin as I panicked. “Ptf!” he snickered and added, “You think I would do that for such a small thing.” “I can’t say, right? You are the same person who dumped me just for seeing me with my uncle,” I didn’t leave a chance to spare him. Clearing his throat, he then spoke out in a grave, serious tone, “I just want to make a proper apology.” “By kidnapping me?” I raised my brows at him, even though his gaze was pulled away from me. “Are you even serious?” “I am not kidnapping you, Prisha. I am just taking you somewhere, we can talk without any hindrance,” he explained, which was not enough for me. “You can stop the car and we can talk here,” I offered. With no any further words, he kept on driving and this pissed me off like hell. Trying not to lose my temper, I took a deep breath before trying to speak in peace. “Aster, I am requesting you again. Pleas
The sun was already close to diving into its nest when Aster and I stepped out of the building. Being late was the least thing I had expected, so I was at the complete stage of panic. Thanks to Aster and Riddle, who assisted me to arrange the books, or else I would end up staying at the library. Riddle left soon after they had placed the last book on the shelves. No bye, no see you, he just left without any words. Which was probably due to the rage he held against Aster for leaving without giving him a valid reason. Even though Aster saved my reputation of being bad in front of him, I felt bad for him and his friend. Tearing their friendship apart was the last thing I would ever want, but the circumstances evolving around them were making me appear like a villain. Limping, I was able to get out of the building, but when it came to the stairs, panic oozed inside me. While I was wondering how I was going to walk down, suddenly, Aster picked me up in his arms. Nervously, I grumbled,
“Ahh!” screaming my lungs out, I shut my eyes tight.Helplessly, I waited for my body to land on the floor and prepared myself to hear my bones cracking.But even after time passed, nothing happened as I had thought. Instead, I sensed the surroundings falling into silence.Wondering if I had already reached heaven, slowly I opened my eyes. Seeing an unexpected person looking down at me, my mind went blank.‘What… What just happened? Did I really die?’ I mused.‘If yes, then why am I seeing Aster?’As my eyes widened, I muttered underneath my breath, ‘Please, don’t tell me he is the Angel of Death.’When one of the books fell knocking on his head, his scrunched face made it clear that he was no Angel or anything. Also, it made me realise that I was still in the world of mortals.The biggest news was I was rescued by Aster and I was in his arms as if I owned it. Our eye
“Krist!” Coming to a halt, I took a deep breath, before turning my heels around, and facing Kristen and Tarry, who were following me to the library. Caressing her arms, I tried convincing her, “Trust me, I will be fine. It is just a matter of one hour.” Taking my hand, she spoke out in a concerned tone, “This is the first time you are facing detention without me and I do not like it. So, please let me stay.” “Krist, no, they wouldn’t allow you. Besides, you have absolutely no fault, so I wouldn’t let you suffer,” I said, putting extra effort into persuasion. “You too have no fault. So, why are you…” “Krist!” I interrupted. “You should leave.” “But…” “If you are really feeling bad for me, then I have a job for you.” Giving me an alarmed look, she asked, “What is it?” “I want you to look out for Aster and find out if he is really leaving.” “GOD!” Rolling her eyes, she rumbled, “Are you even serious? Because of him, you ended up here and you are still caring about him? Duh! Pris
With a heavy heart, I headed to my classroom. The first thing I did after reaching my desk was to take a glance at Aster’s class, but there was no sign of him. Sighing deeply, I tossed my bag on the table and plonked on my chair, not wanting anyone to come and see me. I was not in the mood for socialising with anyone. But Newt appeared before me out of nowhere with a smile which used to make my heart pound and butterflies linger inside my belly. I found out that his smile had lost its magic as it had no effect on me. ‘Was it because I was too stressed regarding Aster?’ ‘Or was it because I had learned my lesson of not falling into guys who already have a girlfriend?’ Whatever it is, I was happy with it as I didn’t have to carry panic alongside stress. “Hey!” Forcing a smile, I replied, “Hey!” “You were looking awesome yesterday. Really, I was not able to recognize you…” Getting the same compliments over and over from different people was making me sick, but controlling my e
“I think we must seek help, Kristen. Walking around this corridor won’t seem to help us in any way,” I ventured when Kristen my best friend and I were not able to discover our classroom.“You know what? I am also thinking the same,” Kristen agreed in no time."There you go and ask..." I shoved her towards the group of boys standing near the window."What no way...? I am not going. Prisha, you are an expert in socializing with people you go..." she stepped behind me and started to push me."Fine, let's go together..." I gripped her wrist and tried to drag her with me....
