I ran downstairs to Jiggy's apartment on the 3rd floor and started ringing the doorbell. Hetal didi opened the door.
"Jiggy is in, right?" I asked.
"Yes," she said.
I ran into the house, to see Jiggy sitting on the couch, looking at his mobile.
"Didn't you see the Whatsapp message?" I asked.
He looked up at me. "Hm..."
"Then why didn't you reply?" I asked. And did not wait for his reply. He was still dressed in the jeans and shirt he wore to the college, so no need to make him change. "Come fast," I said, taking his hand in mine and pulling him. He came with me as I pulled him.
"Hey listen... I don't feel like eating." He said as I dragged him along.
"You?" I snorted, "The sun might have risen from the west today..."
I pulled him along. When I reached the lobby, I left his hand and ran to Ishan.
"Sssss..." Ishan hissed in worry as I ran to him, "How many times have I told you not to run?"
"What's the big deal? I am all better now." I said. "See..." I jumped up and down a bit.
Ishan held his hand to my shoulder and made me stop, and standstill. His eyes were strict. Glad that he did. Now that I had run and jumped, my ribs and head were in a bit of pain. I hope it doesn't show on my face. Else Ishan will kill me.
I saw Ishan's eyes moving to Jiggy who was standing a bit far away from us, looking like he needed to poop. I blinked at him. What's up with him?? I looked back at Ishan who was giving Jiggy the glare he nowadays gives to Arjun. Ishan took his hand off my shoulder.
"What's is wrong?" I asked looking between Jiggy and Ishan.
Arjun came walking to us. I looked at Arjun.
"So... Suhana is really not coming?" He asked.
"Hm..." I said.
"Then... I will just skip." He said.
"Oye... Is only Suhana important to you? Am I not your friend?" I asked.
"Yes, you are." He said. "But...some others will be uncomfortable if I am around." He looked away from Ishan, totally indicating Ishan.
Jiggy came a bit more closer to us three... And there was something really strange with the three today.
"Jiggy will be there for you," I told Arjun.
He chuckled...In a sort of mean way. And totally with an under meaning way. "Ah... I am sorry." He added to me.
"Adithi," Jiggy called, "You guys go ahead. I am going back home."
