Truthfully Yours

Chapter 9

As soon as my brother dropped me
at the school, I walked to my class. I dropped my bag in my desk and ran to the science class. Where I thought the boy would be. But he wasn't there.

I feel so sorry for the poor boy. He got troubled because of my stupidity. But those eyes.. its sinfully attractive. So deep like an ocean where I feel to swim and drown in there. Very captivating like a magnet. Ssshhh.. I cant be thinking like this about a boy whom I barely knew. It will cause him more harm. I don't wanna fall for this guy. I must have self-control.

But where is he?..

" Maybe he'll be in the library ", I heard a voice. I turned to see Saanvi smirking. Did she just read my mind ??

" Whom are you talking about ? ", I asked. And she smirked again.

" You were looking for Vir right ? ", she asked me and I nodded no.

" Dont shake your head like a kitten ", she said.

" Hey.. dont speak about kitten. I often fall into trouble by them ", I said and she laughed.

" God bless you to change your fate about kitten ", she said walking away.

I ran to the library. I want to apologize him before the first hour starts. I entered the library. I saw only few people present there. What is he doing in the library at this early hour ??

I went and looked about each and every nook and corner except the last left corner. I walked towards it and saw something which wasn't regret of seeing. He too was shocked.

" What are you doing ?? ", i shouted with shock. He looked at me then at the thing he was holding.

" Hell.. no.. no.. ", he said but I ran away. I heard him shouting wait. I was running. The people present there were looking at us. They might be assuming something about us but I would rather run than explaining them.

I went inside my class. I can't believe how ridiculous he is. I thought of him so high. But he's so cheap !!

How dare he use drugs inside the school campus.. in the library. So is he revolving around the library like a bookworm to take these ?? How cheap..

" Good morning ", Reyansh wished me and placed his bag on his desk.

" You look so stressful.. what happened?? ", he asked me. I mumbled nothing and left from there.

I was about to step out of the class room and there stood him looking down at the ground through the corridor. Suddenly he turned back to face me. His face looked so tensed. He stepped forward and I ran into the class. I heard him walking away.

I went home and I got fever that day. I took a week leave from then. The very next week my final exams approached. I started to distance myself from everyone else and indulged in studying. I learnt all my subjects except Accounts which was the toughest for me to learn. Reyansh could atleast pass with the help of his 'copying' talent at the examination hall. But I don't know to do that too and I don't want to.

I went exactly examination time and left home as soon as it ended. I saw him waiting for me to explain whatever the nonsense he did. I dont care to listen. I'm scared to see him. It felt me so hurt, i started to like him but what he did made regret liking him.

............

We got summer holidays and I was shut inside my room all those days. I saw the poem I wrote about his eyes before. I broke into tears reading it. I felt to burry myself in the pit I digged now.

I got relaxed while playing with my cute nephew Prakash. I lifted him and made him sit on my lap. He started to play with my long hair.

" Prakash.. ", I heard my brother's voice from the hall. Ohh.. a father longing to see his son after going for a week away.

Prashant had to go for a week away from the village he live in. He is straight away searching for his son.

" He's here with me ", I yelled from my room and he came to my room.

" So.. sir is hiding here ?? ", he asked as Prakash started to run with his tiny legs.

Prashant lifted him in a swift motion and he sqeaked like a mice. I laughed looking at the duo fighting. Prashant was tickling the poor little boy and he was laughing as he feel too ticklish. I helped Prakash out.

" Why are you torturing a kid ? ", I said pouting.

" You know what he just did.. he threw a bottle on his mom.. thank god she isn't hurt much.. ", Prashant complained.

I felt to laugh but composed myself. You know how hard i wanted to smack her on her head with something.

I'm sorry but I cannot control myself when I see her hurt my family with her harsh words. I don't know how to hell my brother fell for a witch. She's just in love with the money and not him. The truth hurts me..

" But.. i couldn't even beat him for whatever he did. Look how innocent he's looking at me now ", Prashant said pulling his cheek as my little Prakash showed his newborn milk teeth.

" Papa.. food ", Prakash asked and I was shocked. What the hell did his mom doing without feeding a little kid ??

I often saw him cry for food but she does not pays heed to it. He used to cry for hours someday. This is one of the reason why I hate her.

" you didn't had food ?? ", Prashant asked him and he blinked. How cute he is.. I feel so sorry for him.

I lifted him and started to feed him some food till he burped full. Then we played till he slept in my lap.

I was dreaming something else until it landed on my school reopening the very Monday. It's already Saturday. I'm feeling happy to see my friends back after two months but also scared.

Scared about something but I don't know whatever it is..
