*On Hiatus*
"So? Do you like me?" He didn't look at me. His eyes fixed on his mobile screen which was blank and had nothing on it.
"What?" I was extremely shocked by his words. Me? I like him? I mean I do but as friends.
"What?" He looked at me. His...

"Today was fun, right? I didn't know my first day would be this great." Yashika said.
Our college ended half an hour ago and now we are hanging out, gossiping about people we have met for the first time, at the cafeteria. By we I mean me, Jenny, Kartik's friends, and Kartik himself, of course. One impression I got about all of them is that they only know how to shit talk about others.
Irritating,
Boring,
And bitchy...
"You know that girl in white dress. She was talking only to boys and wouldn't even pay heed to any of us who went and approached her." Yashika started her bitching.
It's starting.
" It's your fault actually. You shouldn't have called her in the first place. " Tanvi advised her.
That was the worst advice one could give. Self-respect? This? No, this is called having ego at a level of more than 100 percent.
"No, I didn't call her at all. My desk mate did."
I bet this is a big fat lie again. Just how did Kartik become friends with these people? He is a kind and good person from as far as I know.
"Let's leave," Jenny whispered in my ears. I looked at her. Trying to explain by facial expressions that we can't leave yet and she revealed her irritation towards the other girls.
Well, it's not like I am having fun or something but I did not want to create a bad image of me in front of Kartik.
"Listen, I can't hear them anymore. So let's just leave. Please." Just then Kartik sat next to me.
" What are you two whispering about? " He smiled. " Talk to us all. You are so quiet. Hey, guys, you are leaving my friend out of the conversation. "
" No, we are talking to her. Right, Mira? " Neha asked me. Talking with me, my foot. I tried talking to these guys before and none of them listened and now there she goes lying about involving me and Jenny.
I want to say this but I know I can't.
" Yes. "
" Hmm. You don't look good. Bored? "
" Nope. " Should I just tell him I don't like his friends? Or not. " It's just that I am hungry and nothing is good in the canteen. "
" Yeah right. " Tanvi agreed as well. I wonder how she knows? When did she try the food here? It's not like I tried as well but that was just the first thing that came to my mind.
