Just Friends

CHAPTER 63

Harshad was staring at the wonderful smile playing on Kiara's face. Her eyes stared at the screen with adoration. Harshad could stare at that beautiful, delighted face forever. The way a small giggle would pop out of her throat, her eyes would shy while a male lead acted romantic, and the way she would stare at the couple with admiration. Kiara was in love with the word 'love.' The reason she would be so engrossed with anything related to romantic love.

Kiara frowned and darted her gaze from the screen to the object that wasn't allowing her to concentrate on the movie, she glared at him. "Screen is over there," she pointed out, getting annoyed. She hated missing a single scene of a movie.

Harshad chuckled, listening to her command and forcing his eyes back on the screen before them. He shook his head at his foolishness.

The movie ended and a huge grin was playing on Kiara's face, making Harshad heart delight in pleasure. Avni and Kiara kept blabbering about the scenes they loved, the ones they hated, and everything in between. Yami shook her head accompanying along with Harshad while Aditi was busy with her boyfriend, Jay.

They waited at the ice-cream parlor to have an ice cream treat as Dhruv had lost the bet as Kiara hadn't cried at all in the entire movie. It was a very tragic love story

"Which flavors?" Dhruv inquired staring at the three, Harshad, Jay, and Yami. The people that were added to their group.

"Chocolate for Harshad," Kiara jumped in between. Harshad was staring at her with a mischievous smile. "You promised last time that you will try it," Kiara was determined not to let him walk away from his words.

"When had I denied?" A smirk was playing on his lip as he shrugged his shoulder.

Dhruv smiled at their exchange and offered them their desirable flavors. "Sorry man, no chocolate available," Dhruv repeated the words of the staff on the counter. Harshad laughed on hearing it while Kiara groaned.

"Seems like God loves me more than you," Harshad chuckled earning a glare from Kiara.

Kiara averted her gaze from him in annoyance. How could he always escape from such challenges was beyond her! She was slowly starting to believe that he was a favorite of God and she hated to accept it.

Soon, she started making their way out of the parlor. Dhruv kept asking whether Harshad wanted to taste any other flavor but Harshad denied it, he stayed behind wanting to have a conversation with a gloomy Kiara.

"If that parlor wasn't having another chocolate cone, it wasn't my fault sweetheart." He muttered making her stamp foot in annoyance. Harshad had a sweet smile playing on his lips.

"I can still keep my promise, though." He muttered grabbing her attention, she stared at him in curiosity. "Like this..." he leaned and took a bite from the cone in her hand. "Eating from the same cone is a far better option than eating two separate ones," he winked taking another bite but got punched on his shoulder.

"Don't steal my ice cream," and Kiara pulled her cone away from his reach.

She rushed away from him making Harshad stare at her with affection.

___

Harshad were sitting beside Dhruv waiting for the rest to get done with their shopping. To elaborate Kiara had thrown Harshad out of the shop because he wasn't allowing her to shop, rejecting every option of cloth and finding one or another fault in them.

So, Harshad was left to company Dhruv who had the least interest in shopping. "Are you going to return back?" Harshad inquired not at all interested in his whereabouts but wanting to get rid of him. Harshad wasn't fond of forgiving people and he wasn't planning to forgive Dhruv any sooner.
