Bye",Waves Ananya at her brother,who only smiles,nodding his head,as he stands there watching her zoom past the gate in her car,out of sight.I didn't know why I did what I did next,but my steps became hurried, hoping Nikhil didn't see me.I sigh when I was almost in safe zone, cursing myself when I look into the glass beside the entrance to see Nikhil looking up in surprise at the exactsametime.Our eyes meet in the mirror.
