She was so late.

If only she listened to Swati, she would have most definitely not been on he heels right then. But she didn't so she had to hurry.

Arriving at the door, she tried to catch her breath. Obviously the lecturer was present, the class was entirely full but she could spot a few convenient positions where she could sit.

"And where exactly are your manners, young lady?" She stopped her stride and turned to the lecturer.

"Walking into my class without a proper permission." She quickly caught her flop and apologized before hurrying up to seat.

Everyone's attention on you was always a terrible feeling that anyone would have wanted to escape at the soonest.

"Doesn't he scare you?" Mehek turned to the voice that spoke beside her.

"Well....if you look deep beyond that really stoic face of his, you're gonna see his horse-like features and then all you can do is laugh."

"Really?" The girl next to her asked and she nodded. "For example, take a deep look at him."

She quickly covered her mouth to stop the incoming laughter after having doing as Mehek told. "He looks so funny."

"Told ya."

"By the way, I'm Sonal."

"Mehek." She shook her outstretched arm. Making friends wasn't really in her schedule of things neither was it her specially. But Sonal have her good vibes, she seemed bubbly and vibrant and fun.

"If you want, you can have my notes for the part of the lecture you missed." And nice too, Mehek thought before nodding in affirmation. "That'll be great."

*******

They laughed as they walked down. Since the end of the lecture, she had been talking with Sonal.

Words didn't seem to run out. It was the first time she actually related with someone so quickly. It was really nice. Sonal was more familiar with the environment so she showed Mehek to a few places that Swati hadn't.

"Aren't you aching to know how it feels?"

"Yh...but I don't think I'm that desperate to kiss just anybody." Mehek replied as they walked into the gym. Neither of them had any classes any time soon, so taking several detours was the plan.

The gym was perfectly furnished and equipped. From painting, tiles, style and arrangement, it was all on point.

It was much spacious but almost empty as not many people were present in it.

"It wreaks in here." Sonal pegged her nose with her fingers as they walked further in.

"It's the sweet smell of strength." Mehek inhaled and smiled at the look on Sonal's face. Sonal only sighed, "It's nothing the first wierd thing you're saying to me today."

She sure did enjoy their time together, it was fun. It was really rare for her to randomly pick up someone to spend time with, but Sonal's company actually proved to be extremely nice.

"But still, we're leaving, you can come some other time.... when you're not with me."
Before Mehek could respond, someone tapped her from behind.

"We meet again!" She instantly recognized the voice and turned, "Shau..." It was him, bit just not the way she had expected to see him.

Her lips slightly parted in surprise and her pupils dilated. Nothing prepared her for that...he was shirtless. Flashing his bare torso.

And for that moment, she simply couldn't tear her gaze from his body, she could just stare.
