Kushi's POV

I opened my eyes at 6:30 in evening, I did not get up from bed, I stared at celing above, everything that happened in morning just repeated itself in my head.

"Are you an idioit?" I remebered Arnav sir saying this. I flinched, closed my eyes and tried to cool myself.
His hair jelled back perfectly, I hate him, His eyes which holds authority, I hate him, His eyebrows which furrow every 5 min, I hate him, That smirk which forms in his perfect lips whenever he asks us questions and we can't answer. Oh god I so hate him. I hate everything about him.

I was trying to self evaluate, I asked myself why I was staring at him so much that I couldn't register what he said, why?

My mind came up with the absurd conclusion, "Maybe I hated him from the beginning, That's why".
Yes I always hated intimidating people.

"This is not time to think about this, I need to concentrate on my studies and forget this nonsense". I opened my "Electromagnatism" book and i finished reading and making notes of first chapter. It was about 8:00 pm, i got hungry and called payal to room.

Payal came to my room and sat on my bed silently.
I opened my snack bag we started to have it in silence.
Payal was observing me kneely.
Me : what?
Payal: kush, you know as far as I remember, it's the first time you were this absent minded in class.
I remained silent and i very well knew the second question.
Payal : what were you thinking?
Me: I was worried about upcoming exams(I lied)
I very well knew payal didn't buy it, im not a good liar.
But for god's grace, she did not ask anything further.
She just shrugged.

Me: what about updates from seniors( I tried to change the topic)
Payal: it was ntg much they asked about who can dance or sing during fresher's progremme
Me: okay. And did you wish your senior bye ( I asked with teasing smile)
Payal : kushhh!
She was about to say smtg when my room door opened and came my roomate sukruti Di, she directly came to me and hugged. I was so happy to see her. She is like elder sister to me.
Sukruti Di : how are you girlss? Missed me?
Payal : offcourse
Me : you didnt inform me you are coming today.
Sukruti Di : if i had informed you would have hid all your snacks right.
Me laughing : may be
We ate some snacks and headed out for dinner.

In Mess, Anita and sadhana joined us
Sukruti Di: so i heard some new hot teacher joined your departement
I became silent and uncomfortable.
Sadhana : you mean Arnav sir, he is very handsome but very strict.
Sukruti Di :muje chalega (its okay for me with a wink )
Everyone laughed i rolled my eyes.
Sukruti Di: i will see him how handsome he is tomorrow if he is up to my standards then he will be not your proffessor
We all stared at sukruti Di in confusion
Sukruti Di : then he will become your brother in law ( she said with wink)
Everyone else laughed and once again i rolled my eyes.
Sukruti Di: kushi do you like him ( she asked suddenly turning to me )
I was flustered by this sudden question
Me: why will I like him
Sukruti Di : then why did you roll your eyes.
Me: because.. Because, i dont want him to be my brother in law, i hate him, i hate everything about him, I dont like dominating people, he is Hitler.
As soon as I said that , everyone burst into laughter.
Sukruti Di : Hitler, nice nick name han.
I laughed more.
Payal: but kush dont you think hate is a very strong word. Do you really hate him?
I became mute by her question. But tried to defend myself.
Me: But he is a Hitler
Payal:( laughed) that i agree
We all ate and went back to room and i studied for sometime, called dad and then slept.
I will show that Hitler im not intimidated by him was my last thought before drifting into sleep.

Next day i wore my black jeans and light pink kurti and saw the clock, its 7:30am, I studied till 8:45 and payal came to my room. And my eye widened looking at her. She was wearing black and blue salwar kameez
Me: Today i got to know, my bestie is a girl.
Payal glared at me.
Payal: Im missing my jeans already😶
Me: you are looking good, now lets go, else we will be late.
One last time we saw sukruti di who was snoring in sleep with mouth wide open and left my room.

We had breakfast and arrived in class. Payal went to wish Akash 'good morning'.
I just opened my book and got busy. Today we don't have Arnav sir, i mean Hitler's class. His class will be on monday, Tuesday, Thursady and Friday. Wednesday and saturday will be freedom offcourse.

Payal came back after sometime and our classes started.

It was lunch break, I was not at all hungry and I asked payal to go with Anita for lunch.
There were few other students in class. I got busy with my studies and after half an hour I thought to take break so I went out in corridor. I saw the third floor corridor was empty and I stood there watching outside.
After sometime when I was about to return to my class, I saw certain someone coming in corridor. My breath got hitched. My mind asked me to take control of myself and not to loose infront of this Hitler. So I started staring right at Mr. Hitler with the anger in my eyes. 😈

He was coming from far away in corridor, At first he did not notice me and once he noticed me, he started to stare back at me,
So now it's a game han, I will not lose, not to you Mr. Hitler.

Arnav sir POV:

I was coming back from the teacher's meeting, I already called kishan bhaiyya to bring my black coffee to my cabin, I don't have classes this afternoon, finally I can concentrate on my Ph.D work.

I saw this girl staring at me on my way, I stopped in my track. Yes she is straing right at me. What the! did she really lost her mind. Her lips are in straight line. I just stood there amused staring back at her.
After it seems like forever,

"Arnav sir", I looked in the direction of Voice.
Kishan bhaiyya stood with coffee mug in his hands: you were not there in cabin so I came searching you, coffee will be cold sir.
Me : okay you keep it in cabin, I will come in 2 min.
Kishan bhaiyya went from there and I looked at the girl, but she was not there.
What the, weired species I thought and returned to my cabin.
