Confession

Chapter 8

VINISHA

".....and you know what, there was also one confession about Rohan. And he replied that there are many girls crushing on him and she must be one of them. By the way, what do you think? Who it could be?" Meera asks.

From the last 15 minutes she's talking, talking & talking. She's been telling me everything about Confession De'Noblians. That there's someone who has created an account for the purpose of confessing feelings. There was a confession about this & that.

Everything.... that I already know.

But I decided not to tell her.

I'm feeling really sleepy. Last night was hectic. I was creating designs & backgrounds and was posting them on Instagram.

Once I was finished I started scrolling Reels. Instagram is indeed fun. I slept at 3'o clock. That's why I'm sleepy now.

"Hello! you're listening to me?" Meera waves her hand in front of my face.

"Yes.... yes... I'm listening." I nod my head.

"What happened? It seems you're sleepy."

"Huh, I was studying last night." I lied.

We are sitting in the library. I thought I'll get a nap in here. But Meera.... she just can't stop talking.

"I want one TS Grewal." I say.

"What?" She asks with confusion.

"TS Grewal Accountancy book. Our tests are near. I want to practice. Help me find that book."

"Uhm, but I want to read this novel."

She has picked some sort of a gangster story to read.

"But you're not reading it. You are talking to me since last fifteen minutes." I tell her.

"Oh I am.... I am reading."

She opens her book and pretends to read. I sigh at her act and walked to the Librarian, Tr. Rekha, to ask her about the book. She told me to find it on my own.

I went to the book shelf of Accountancy. There were many books. Mostly 12th standard books. I was looking for my book but I couldn't find it. There were rarely 11th standard books.

I found DK Goel & Dinesh but where the hell is TS Grewal. Also there is no one in here to help me.

I was looking for my book when I felt that there's someone on the other side of the shelf. I removed some books to see who it is and.... No! again.... Mr. Popular.

He sees me and then pretends to find book. I simply ignore him. But what the hell is he doing in the library? And not only that, he is in here finding books in the shelf.

Weird!

In the lower most shelf there was a tower of books. Big fat books. I decided to see through them. But when I was pulling one of the books. All of them fell on the ground. "Shooks!" I curse myself.

I heard someone laughing behind me. Aryan. He was leaning on the shelf, his arms were crossed around his chest and he was laughing at me. I gave an angry look to him and started picking the books.

"Want my help?" He asks.

"No." I answer in an angry tone.

I denied his help but still he came near me, kneeled down and started picking up the books with me.

After we settled all the books he asked. "What book are you searching for?"

I didn't wanted to answer him but still I answered with much hesitation. "TS Grewal Accountancy Book"

"You should have asked Tr. Rekha." He says while placing his arm on the bookshelf. And ofcourse, it enabled me to his biceps and veiny forearms again.

I ignore it and look at his face instead. "I did. But she told me to find it on my own."

"Mind if I help?" He tried to bite back his smile.

"No, I don't need your help." I arrogantly reply.

He removes his arm from the shelf and puts his hands in his pant pockets. "I think you do need my help. Otherwise you will again create a blunder in here."

I was annoyed by his statement. "By the way, what are you doing in here? Library is not meant for your kind of students."

I thought he'll be enraged by my answer but instead he chuckled and kept on smiling, showing me his dimples. "Let me help you." He insisted but I didn't gave him any answer and started looking for my book. He did the same.

5 minutes have passed and we're still looking for the book.

"Found it." Aryan said.

"Really?"

"Here you go." He handed me the book. "It was hidden in between many books." He told me.

I was happy, finally to have my book. I was smiling. And when I looked at Aryan, he was already looking at me with a smiling face.

"Thank you." I tell him.

"Just a thank you." He teases.

"So.... what else do you want?" I ask.

Infinite minutes of silence. I was looking at him, he was looking at me. And then, he shooks his head and says. "Nothing." He turns back and walked out.

I know I've said this Infinite times and I'm saying it again. That, seriously man! What the hell is wrong with him?
