The Artificial Jury

5. Are you changing Mr. Arrogant?

Parthiv's POV 

We moved towards the Mercedes. I sat on the driving seat. The trio was coming and I noticed them. Avika made her way towards the back seat. I closed my eyes for a bit and was shocked. 

"Parthiv, shall we go?" Avika, who was sitting on the front seat beside me, asked. 

"Yeah! But I think you can call me Parth. We are friends, right?" I asked smiling. 

"Of course, Partho." she smiled. I felt chills down my spine. What's happening to me? 

I kick-started the car and just mentally laughed at the fact that two opposite people have to share the back seat. But, they were comfortable. Is this the international shocking day? Abhi was also stealing glances of Mihi. What the heck!? Is there a chance of MihiAbhi? If yes, I am really happy. We finally reached Abhi's house. 

We moved down and reached his house. 

"So, is a small party awaiting us?" Avi asked. 

"Yes, a party for my friends." Abhi replied while looking towards Mihi. 

"So, I think I should go. You guys carry on." Mihi said while turning to go but Abhi held her wrist. 

"I think, I said friends, and you're one." Abhi said and took Mihi with him. Avi and I also moved inside. 

I could see that Mihi was a little uncomfortable and Avika also noticed this. We both side- hugged Mihi at the same time. I gasped when her hand touched mine. Mihi was smiling and even Avika was shocked. 

"Oh, sorry!" Avi and I said together. 

"It's ok." We again said together and ended up in fits of laughter. 

"Looks like you both are long lost besties." Mihi came between us and I gave a look. Wasn't this the same a fan craves for? Yes, as an ardent fan of Avi, I got what I wanted, but I feel contented by keeping her in my arms. Maybe, a serious fan feeling. I thought and chuckled. 

"Is someone bonding well?" Abhi came while taking a red velvet and a chocolate cake.

"What is this for?" Avi asked. 

"For celebration, I guess." Abhi replied. 

"But how did you know my favorite?" Mihi asked while looking towards the chocolate cake. 

"Who said I made your favorite. Red velvet is Avi's and I guess Parth's favorite too. Chocolate cake is my craving." Abhi joked but Mihi was hurt. 

"Oh... ok." Mihi replied while having a tinge of pain in her voice. 

"Hey, I was joking. Once, Avi told me that chocolate cake is your favorite. So, I made it and co-incidentally I also like it." Abhi said which comforted Mihi, and she gave a smile.

"Chocolate cake baking is his specialty and Red velvet is Miya's specialty. By the way, where is Miya? She didn't come with us to the court as she is young for these and so, we denied taking  her. But, where is she now?" Avi asked with a frown. I was also wondering this.

"She is with Bhavya and two of her other friends. They caught up at Bhavya's house for some college project." Abhi replied. We nodded. 

It was so weird, two totally opposite personalities had something in common. And how to say that I like red velvet cake just because Avi likes it. 

"Are you blushing?" Mihi asked while having a mouthful of cake. She was sounding very funny. 

"You are sounding so funny and cute." Abhi replied and pulled her cheeks. She shrieked in pain and glared at Abhi. This pair is cute. And thank god, they forgot the former question.
