Quickly time had flown. 

Shivaay was in the final year of his integrated course, he was twenty-two. And Annika, in her third year.

He didn't realise how time flew. Their talks started from the football league and ended up with their experiences of life. Annika shared how living alone in a dorm was difficult, and Shivaay conveyed how much he hated shopping and many more. They talked from the smallest to the big leagues. Much to his astonishment Annika gifted him a pair of white woollen turtle neck shirts, which he happily donned along with his charming and handsomeness to the good-bye party to his batch of students from his juniors.   

"Hmmm Hey." Annika's classmate Amelia awkwardly waved as Shivaay stood leaning against the furniture, and having a light chit chat with Annika.

"Heya! Amelia, you look good." Annika squeaked looking at her long lavender thigh-silt gown with a smile. Her smile scattered as she looked at herself, she wore a burgundy solid maroon dress with black straps, it reached above her knee.

It wasn't much feminine. It looked decent but not elegant and gorgeous.

"Thanks." Amelia blushed a bit and spoke. "Wanna speak to him." She edged and pointed at Shivaay who was too obvious to that.

Smiling uncomfortably, Annika stepped out.

"Where are you moving to Annie?" Shivaay shouted.

"Bar." He frowned upon hearing. "I need to taste the vodka once. Don't tell bhaiya." She lied.

"Don't drink much. I'm coming. Wait." He said out loud yet his voice didn't reach her ears due to the massive DJ system.

Amelia halted him and turned on inquiring about his plans, and he gladly answered his wish to join the LLM program in Delhi.

"Would you mind grabbing some coffee from the cafe tomorrow with me?" She asked with high hopes.

Shivaay drained pale with that. He knew what was coming next. He knew what it meant. He knew he must get out sooner or later.

"I- Uhm. I don't know."

"Amelia he isn't interested." Much to his pleasure Annika appeared and stumbled over Amelia's gown and wetted her gown with her wine.

"How do you know?"

"I know." Annika smiled. Shivaay just stood watching both girls in their glare session.

"Why? Is he gay?"

"That was at least better. He is asexual." A lie.

"What the fuck!" Shivaay screamed as soon as Amelia left.
