(POV:REYANSH)
She just nods - the cutest thing about her.
I realized I have become so damn cheesy now- a - days.
But she is all worth it.
Ughh why am I so damn cringey.
I suppose we were having a serious meeting there but we were talking the whole time behind…. I mean, I was talking the whole time she was just nodding or smiling.
The meeting got over, she went her way and I went my way,
looking forward to meeting her the next day.
This went on for 2 weeks.
After a few days before the morning assembly I saw her standing alone in a corner - grabbed the chance and went to her straight.
“Heyy, why are you standing alone?” I asked.
“Ah yeah actually Tania is not well and Erica is caught up in some work she may be coming” She answers.
It is the longest sentence she has ever said and even that wasn't about her.
Well, we talked a lot and laughed a lot too. But this time both of us weren't awkward.
This went on for days and weeks even our friends were now good friends.
We were now close enough to share lots of embarrassing bits, funny stories, and sad topics.
But if only everything was the same.
Teenagers- would literally do anything without a thought, for them, rumors are just entertainment.
Since both of us were now close rumors started to surface.
And yes according to them we were in a relationship and I was dating, two-timing, and all those baseless stuff They said stupid things about Ruhi too.
Which pricked me the most…..I mean I was used to it I was famous in my previous school too and things like this did not mean anything to me or the people around me but this time it was different ….she is different.
I apologized to her every time we talked and all she said was "It's fine"
But I wasn't, I had no idea how to stop it but out of guilt, all I could think to do was distance myself from her for the time being.
I know I was acting stupid but that was all I could think of.
I started avoiding her to stop the rumors but she had no idea what I was trying to do which led to a huge wall between us.
I was hurt but I also wanted to keep her from the negativity…..if that makes sense.
