Gauri's POV
What ...
What did he just say?
My heart- it's.. it's too fast now! And are my hands getting a bit shaky? I heard him speak further
"Please stop bothering her." He spoke sternly and wow. Hot. The air is hot. Am I sweating?
The dude spoke now, "Oh? I didn't catch up with that, you both were really quiet throughout the flight." He ended with a chuckle.
"Doesn't matter, she clearly showed no interest. Respect that." Shekhar replied.
The line cleared and we came out of the airship. The dude gave us one last look before and walked away in a fast pace.
Oh my bholenaath, what was this.
Shekhar glanced at me as we walked almost side by side. "You're good?" He asked with concern in his voice.
"Y-yeah.." why did I stutter to speak just one word?
Silence again took over. Why does it always takes over between us? But atleast we're walking together.
I smiled a bit.
"Shekhar!! Wait!!"
Ah. Here comes the wife.
Shekhar turned his head and so did I and saw Shaurya running towards us. He caught up with us and swinged his arm around Shekhar's shoulders making him stumble.
They started conversation and slowly walked away resulting in me now walking slowly alone. I sighed.

Shekhar's POV
"You can't see me happy can you?"
"What? What did I do?"I looked at Shaurya frustrated as he acted completely oblivious.
"I was walking with Gauri."
"Oohhh" he made a funny O face and I just wanted to punch him now."Sorry man. Didn't know you liked her."
I sighed.
"Why are you being such a bitch" I asked
"Who? Me?"
"Yes. You."He sighed and looked at me,
"You think she likes you?"
"I don't know"
"Wanna know?"
"I'm not playing any new game. Last one did enough damage."
I replied as I finally picked up my bag from the conveyor belt. Shaurya had already picked his up and was waiting for mine.We started walking towards the exit where our bus was waiting for us.
"This one won't do any damage tho!"
"Still no."
"Sure?"
"Yes."
"Alright.""Also, let me sit with her please?"
Shaurya rolled his eyes,
"Yeah yeah sure."I looked behind to see if she was near but she wasn't. Maybe her bag is yet to come.
* * *
We finally reached the bus stop but the bus wasn't here yet.
After 5 minutes or so, Gauri also reached. I became alert as soon as I saw her. She saw me too and there was a eye contact!
We smiled at eachother and continued the eye contact for about 10 seconds. It got broken cause of her friend Anushka calling her.
"Shaurya sit with Anushka."
"What? Why?"
"Else she'll sit with Gauri! Do something!"
He looked at me with a panicked expression."Wha- what?? I don't even know her! How will I make her sit with me?"
Gauri's POV
"I don't know. Think of something!"
"You're crazy Gauri, I don't even know that dude."
"Shaurya is a talkative man, you'll be fine"I asked her to sit with Shaurya, else he would sit with Shekhar.
Anushka growled in frustration. I just smiled at her.
5-7 minutes later the bus arrived and everyone started crowding. It was a huge bus so should be enough for everyone.
But my goal was a particular seat.
* * *
Shekhar's POV
I sat down somewhere in the middle by the window seat and kept my bag on the aisle to reserve it. Shaurya sat down two seats behind me.
People were rushing in and my anxiety was going up and up and up- Gauri entered!
I again went alert mode and straightened my back to make myself visible to her.
She saw me!!
A smile appeared on our faces. She started approaching me and I was ready to remove my bag.
"Hey Gauri!"
Who the fuck-
Gauri's POV
Was Shekhar waiting for me?
I'm ... I'm feeling hap-"Hey Gauri!"
Oh no.
My head called out my name and I looked at the seats on the left side of the bus (Shekhar was on right just beside my head's)
"Come sit here." He patted on the aisle seat beside him. I looked at Anushka who was now seated with Shaurya.
I saw both of them sigh.
"What happened?" Head asked and I saw people behind me crowd and wait for me to sit so I just... sat.
I saw Shekhar's face sullen. Fuck.
Why Bholenaath. Why.
And to make it worse, another woman sat beside him on the aisle seat, blocking his face.
I've never cursed at a situation so much before in my life.
