I asked looking at my reflection into the mirror."Yes, there is one thing missing," said Arjun."What?" I and Namit asked him in unison."Your brain," he replied and received a smack on his head from Namit in response."I have been watching you from the last 20 minutes. What exactly are you trying to do?" Arjun asked."I am going to Saavi's place to study and I should look good.""And what was the issue in black tee which you were wearing a while ago?""Saavi loves white.""You are going crazy for her," he said shaking his head.

CH 10 || The Unanticipated Proposal
Saavi******I stepped inside the big building of my school nervously. The fear of encountering the people who bully me is not leaving me, but I had to come. I can't run away like a coward, I will have to face it myself.Taking a deep breath, I went inside the library. Dhruv and the others came early and studied with me, even Jai joined us.

Dhruv******"Seriously, a friendly date?" Namit asked in disbelief."I had to make her agree so I told her, it's a friendly date," I replied scratching the back of my neck."And the award for the best proposal goes to Mr.Dhruv Kapoor," Arjun said dramatically."Ok, ok, guys enough.

Riddhi was at Saavi's place as she wanted to make her ready for the date.Jai and Nikhil were busy making other arrangements and here I am getting nervous.

Stop pacing as it won't reduce the distance between yours and Saavi's home.""Namit is right dude. Arjun and Riddhi will soon come with her.
