--Mukti--
Did you just complain against me?? Manik said angrily and he got startled.
N-No, I-I didn't complain against you, I-I didn't, I swear I didn't, he stuttered.
Stop lying!!! Manik shouted.
you know what, you did something unexpected, yeah I like it, now, you just wait until this lecture end, after that, I'll surely kill you, he said with a grin on his face and left.
the professor started giving his lecture and when I looked at him, he was looking terrified, his hands were shaking and his head was hung low as he was staring at his notebook and then a drop of water fell on his notebook.
is he crying????, I thought.
professor!!! he said while standing up. "I'm not feeling well, can I go to the infirmary", he said.
Yeah sure, the professor replied and he left the classroom.
I have to check on him, I thought.
I was looking for him and then I saw him jump over the wall.
is he trying to run away from the college??? I thought.
--Abhi--
He said he will kill me, can he, just like yesterday, no, I have to do something but I didn't complain, will he listen to me?? first I have to leave from here but if I leave Mukti will tell them.
Tears started falling from my eyes. please god, please help me. if anything happened to me then Neitra, no I have to do something, I can't die.
Professor!!! I'm not feeling well, can I go to the infirmary, I asked and left.
I thought Going from the front gate is not a good option, they must be waiting for me there, so I jumped over the wall but still, she caught me.
"Listen, I swear I didn't complain please let me go", I tried to explain to her hoping that she will trust me.
"Sit in the car", she ordered me.
"Please, trust me, I-I was...
"Sit in the car, before Manik caught you", she interrupted and I sat in the car hoping that I can trust her.
"Where are you taking me??", I asked
She didn't reply,
"Please trust me, I-I d-didn't complain. Vibha Ma'am s-saw me yesterday when I-I left the library, so s-she asked me about the bruises and-and I only told her, it was Manik, I swear I-I didn't tell her about you, and I had no idea that she would complain. please let me go, I'm begging you, I stuttered almost crying.
She again didn't say anything.
"w-what will you guys do with me", I asked.
"I will withdraw the complaint, I promise I will, please let me go", I tried to do some reasoning with her.
She again was silent. My hands were shaking. thinking about what will they do with me made me terrified.
--Mukti--
Manik is so angry, I don't even know what he will do if he finds him. This is not the right time to give him any kind of explanation. I have to make sure he is safe from Manik.
"Get off the car", I said indifferently.
What is this place?? Where are we?? What are you guys planning to do??, he asked worriedly.
This is my house, stay here for some time and don't worry I'll take care of everything, I replied.
why would I trust you?? is anyone there?? Is it your plan??, he asked.
Listen, you are not in the situation of asking anything, I shouted angrily but after watching his eyes my anger got vanished.
Listen, Abhi, try to understand, I'm just trying to help you so do what I'm asking for. Manik will not listen to any of your explanations right now, so give me some time everything will be fine and I'll take care of your complaint as well. okay???
"okay", he said.
(next day, in the college)
--Abhi--
what?? that happened and I thought why did you bunk the college? Nandini said.
So Mukti helped you but how?? She asked.
I don't know, she called me in the evening and said everything is fine now and she asked me to explain Vibha ma'am, so I did that, I replied.
so you withdraw the complaint?? She asked.
did I have any other choice, I replied.
But why did she help you?? She asked.
I don't know, I replied.
But I know, she said. "she helped you because she likes you".
"I spit water out of my mouth", what?? I said in disbelief.
Yeah, I think Mukti has feelings for you that's why she keeps helping you, she said while smiling.
Nandini, you are out of your mind, I said.
"Listen, she helped you in the cafeteria and library and saved you from Manik that day and she even helped you yesterday, she is in love with you", she said.
Love??? Nandini, it's nothing like that, she helped me because of Manik, what if Manik killed me out of anger yesterday?
so she helped Manik, not me and everyone says that they are in a relationship, I explained to her.
no, Abhi, I noticed that she gives a different type of expression every time you say "please". Like she cares for you or even likes you, she said.
Care for me??? Nandini, you are seriously out of your mind, I'm leaving, I don't wanna talk about this, I said.
"Trust me, Abhi, okay, so whenever you want something from her try to make that puppy eyes face and say please, she will do that for sure", she said confidently.
Puppy eyes???? I said in confusion.
--Mukti--
Oh!! so whenever your friend sees his eyes she feels something different, Aliya asked.
Yeah, I said.
Different like?? what type of feeling?? She asked.
Different like, like she wants to hug him, take care of him, or maybe kiss him, oh shit! Aliya, is this some kind of hypnosis?
I asked worriedly.
Oh, Mukti you know a lot about your friend's feelings btw who is this friend? She asked.
you don't know her, I said just answer me if you know.
of course, I know, your friend is in love with him, she said while smiling.
Love??? no no no, No Aliya she can't, come on, she can not be in love with him, I said.
why she can't ?? Everyone can be in love except you, Mukti, she said.
why except me??? I questioned her.
Oh!! so I was right you are talking about yourself, she said.
what?? No, I was talking about my friend. you don't know her, I said.
Btw, Abhi is cute I think he is really good for you, she said.
what?? How do you know I'm talking about him, I asked.
Oh, Mukti, my baby, I'm not that dumb, okay, I noticed when you helped him in the cafeteria but I was not sure at that time, but now I'm sure, you are in love with him, she said.
Love, I thought about him.
Omg, Mukti, are you blushing?? aliya asked.
Blush??? No, I'm not and I'm not in love with him, I wasn't even talking about him, okay, Aliya, I said.that's it for the chapter.
Thank you very much.
Always be happy and like and share.
