CHAPTER 12
AND I THOUGHT I AM THE STALKER HERE.
“What
is it with you and food and me always helping you up?”, asked the crush of my
life shaking his head, smirking at me. Oh I would like to wipe that smirk off
his face! But its not the time. With a little bit of help from him I managed to
pick myself up and ran to the nearest restroom as fast as possible. Without
falling down. Again.
After
changing into new clothes I read the text message from Jhansi asking me to meet
up with the others at the entrance of the mall. Picking up my pace now that
nobody is watching unlike my little trip to the restroom before, I reached my
destination a little sooner.
And
the sight that awaited me…nearly had my eyes bulge out of my sockets. Is this
some miracle coming true or my eyes playing tricks on me, I don’t know.
Rubbing
my eyes, I walked slowly to realize that my eyesight is absolutely perfect and whatever I was seeing
was indeed real.
The ‘I don’t like boys and I’ll torch any boy
who tries to flirt with me’ Jhansi was chatting animatedly with Anand Gupta, a
friend of Jason in case you forgot and Anand in turn was laughing as that was
the funniest thing he had ever heard in this world. On the other side of them
were, Noah and Jessica, standing a little too close, might I add, were taking
selfies on Jess’s phone.
The
whole time I could feel a pair of eyes on me ,watching my every movement, every
reaction and as I traced the glance to its owner stood the ever breathtakingly
looking Jason Samuel.
Since
my friends were too busy with their new friends to notice me, I made my way to
him with this eyes on me all the time.
“Where
is Resh?”, I asked him oh-so-casually.
“She
and Seb went to get the car from the parking.”
“Right,
someone has got to do that.” Still feeling he is staring at me, I asked, “And I
thought I am the stalker here. Alright what do you want? You have been staring
at me the whole time”.
That’s
when two cars stopped beside us one behind another. He looked at Seb then
turned to leave but not before whispering in my ear, “I can’t get what I want
neither can you give.”
I don’t
know what he meant but sure gave me goose-bumps.
In the
car I sat at the backseat as my thoughts of what Jason said sat at the backseat
of my mind and slept like a baby through my thoughts.
It was
noon and rays of sunlight peeked through the windows in my room when I woke. After
having lunch I decided to do something productive and prepare myself for the
next day.
Right.
Me and my friends start college tomorrow. Even though a part of me is afraid, I guess
a part of me is excited too. And with that spirit I packed whatever I may need
and moped around for a bit.
Long
before the day became night, and we four gathered at the hall.
“So
tomorrow we begin our college life and I hope we enjoy every bit of it as we
did in school.”, said Jhansi.
“Yeah,
and lets hope that Jhansi finds a boyfriend for herself”, said Jessica to which
Jhansi ACTUALLY BLUSHED.
“You
are blushing!”
“You
are already seeing someone aren’t ya?”
“Who
is the guy?!”
“Is
he good looking? Of course he must be good-looking to have gained your
attention!”
And
with that the night ended with four young hearts beating full of excitement, joy,
thrilled with what tomorrow might have in the store for them.
