"Wake that bastard up, Ms.Singhania",the professor asked me to wake up Kartik. "Sir, he hasn't been feeling too well",I defended him. "Naira, please do what I have asked you to", the professor said. "Kartik", I called him out softly. He didn't wake up. I shaked him a little, and he woke up with a jerk. "You are fine. Calm down",i said knowing very well what got him to waking up with a jerk.

"So Kartik, what is wrong with you today? Why have you been sleeping all throughout the lecture?",the professor asked him sternly. "Sir, i.. I don't know, i am sorry",he said and the lecture started again.

Kartik and i were studying now. He kept asking me doubts in the between and i explained it all to him. With this continuing, the lecture came to an end. The professor went back into the teacher's room and my man-child, the so-called bad boy followed him to apologise. He was back after a while where all of us were talking before leaving for home. It was our spot after the lecture.

Kashish called me and asked me to come to a side. I went there and she asked me, "what's up with you and Kartik?". "Nothing dude, for real",i said. "Well, i did see some chemistry..",she argued back. "Kashish, he is just my friend like how he's with all of you. Infact you know our bond, we just keep taking digs at each other and then laugh it out",i said. "Well, okay, yeah!",she agreed and we went back to the group.

Kshitij called out for Kartik and they got into a similar discussion. Kartik too didn't inform Kshitij of how they real bond was, way beyond and way deeper than all the taunts and jokes they keep making on the each other.

Kartik was not someone who would hide his real bond with anyone, but here, naira asked him to. She told him to not tell the reality of their bond to anyone. Kartik was very hurt initially. He had asked her back then that why did she not want to own their friendship or was she ashamed of him.

To this she had said,"People hide their diamonds to protect it from the world." Naira explained him that he was one of the most precious friends she's made at the class and she doesn't want to lose it to something silly. He was genuinely happy hearing her reply. He had always been thinking of himself as a worthless individual and a burden on his dadi, but this girl, without knowing about his insecurities, had touched the deepest cord of his heart.

Kartik's POV

I asked them,"so what's up with the Marines plan? Are you'll going still?", To which Shashank replied,"well, you see both of you won't come, sannu didn't get permission, Arjun's got plans, so it's cancelled." I could see Naira who was giggling in herself and giving me "see, told you" look! She had predicted it well in advance that the plan would not work out.

"How about even the both of us come tomorrow, and we go there at the morning, before the lecture, have breakfast there, sit and chill for a while and seedha attend the lecture?",Kartik suggested.

"I'll be at churchgate anyways, got to make some college submissions. You'll come there and call me up, i ll bunk the rest of the day",naira chirped.
I knew about the submissions, and i knew this was the only way to get her do things that I want her to.

Everyone agreed and we made the plans. The others started going back home. I wanted to wait back to talk to naira, but I didn't know what excuse to make, just then my mind realized something and i spoke up immediately.

"Naira..",i called her out and almost everybody turned. "Can you teach me aaj ka missed concepts abhi hi, ghar jaake i have to take up another subject",I made a right, believable excuse. She nodded and came towards me, while others left.

"Come, let's sit!",she said and started taking out books from the bag. My good girl, uff.! "Listen to me, you want to know why I cried",i asked her. She turned at me immediately and said, "only if you don't mind sharing", "sweetheart! I am sorry for that outburst!",i genuinely apologised.
