“Ahhh!” I screamed out in panic and closed my eyes.
Suddenly I felt a strong force pulling my arms and in second strong arms wrapped around my waist. Slowly, opening my eyes I caught the sight of Aster’s handsome face very close. My heart leaped as my eyes got locked in his blue almond eyes. With every warm breath of him falling on my face, chills were sent down my spine.
My sight had nothing except for him. A sudden urge of wanting the time to stop arose inside me which was kind of strange. I had a crush on my classmate, but why was there a strange feeling being close to Aster, it was hard to comprehend.
I was so lost in him that, when Kristen called out, “Prisha, are you alright?”

“I… I just feel too shy,” she replied, lowering her head. Her cheeks were already flushed red.I passed a gaze at Kristen. “Seems like I missed so many things yesterday,” she mumbled.“Indeed!” I mumbled. “Let’s go then. Why are you hesitating?” I questioned Jessica.“I… I just feel too shy,” she replied, lowering her head. Her cheeks were already flushed red.“Shyness i
“I…”“Prisha....”“Wow! Krist, you got the perfect timing.” My heart was at ease seeing Kristen coming towards us.“Prisha, you didn’t answer my question,” Aster asked again, sounding desperate.“Um! I am sorry, Aster. Kristen and I got a plan after school,” I refused but deep down I was not feeling good at all but still, I did that.“Are we going somewhere?” with a face beaming K
I came to halt hearing her. I averted my gaze at her and narrowed my eyes. “It was you who gave him my number. You traitor.”“Ahh! Don’t call me that. You never told me to not share your number with anyone. So, there is no way that I didn’t betray you by giving you your number. And it is good to have each other’s number if it can be useful in future.” She tried hard to explain.I folded my arms and looked away being annoyed. She wrapped her hand around my shoulder but I pushed her away.“Okay, fine, fine I am sorry. It was you who left me with no other option,” she said, making me confused.
I was not convinced by her words. “Tell me the truth.”“Why don’t you believe me? I told you the truth. I didn’t call him here.”“Are you sure?” I asked for reassurance.“Of course I am,” she said with full confidence.“Okay, don’t let him see us. Hide your face.”“Why should I hide my face? It is not that he will come to us seeing my face. He will come only if he sees you. So you better cover your face. I am sure he is your Romeo. He even found your favorite cafe and followed us
“Don’t you like me being around you?” suddenly he questioned in a deep voice.I hastily shook my head right to left. “No… no… that is not the thing.”“Are you sure?”I nodded.“Then why do you always find a way to ignore me?” he questioned again.“I am not ignoring you,” I said hastily.“Great! then!” He gripped my arms and shoved me back o
Tears rolled down my eyes and I was feeling totally helpless. Lowering my head I kept on praying. I recalled every loved one in my life.“How will mom and dad find me? If anything happens to me today will they be able to take it? Will they be able to find Aster the culprit? Will justice be served to me?” In a second my mind was flooded with lots of thoughts.“Prisha…”His sudden call made me flinch and grow more anxious.“What was wrong with your eyes this morning? Did anyone hurt you?”“What? Why is he showing so much concern?” I was astounded, but still, I had no courage to look up at him.Suddenly the car came to halt
“What? Different? What does he mean by that? Does he mean I am a weirdo?Narrowing my eyes in confusion, I questioned, “what… what do you mean by that?”He averted his gaze back to me and replied, “I mean you too should have a peaceful time here like me, as you too have a noisy friend hovering around you.”“Nah! I am good with my noisy friend. She is always that way and I really love being around her.” I took my gaze back to the view.“What about me? Do you love being around me?”Hearing him, suddenly my cheeks hit and I felt something inside my stomach. Were those goosebumps? I was not able to figure it out. I wanted to reply but there was no proper answer. Neither
“Newt?” I was astounded to see him sitting in the next row close to my seat.“What do you have to say in this regard, Philosopher Prisha? Someone is finally not turning blind eye to you,” I heard Kristen whispering near my ear.I elbowed her. “Shut up.”My eyes were fixed on Newt, not knowing what I was supposed to say. I was trying my best to keep my distance from him, but it seemed like he was against my decision. Or was it just a coincidence? I was not able to figure it out.As I was still on the verge of deciding what I was supposed to do, his face suddenly beamed with a smile. Then in his deep tone questioned, “can we be friends?”I gulped hard as the words got stuck in my
