When she wakes up, it's almost afternoon and the only person sitting in front of her is Akash, everybody else is gone. He is just back from practice and is sweating badly. When he recognizes she is up, he gazes at her with an interrogative stare.

Akash : Are you okay?

Bhargavi : I'm fine, how long have I been sleeping?

Akash : Oh were you sleeping, sorry I didn't realize it.

He says making fun of her, she gives him a glare. She realizes there's no one in the cafeteria, the school is probably empty.

Bhargavi : oh no, did I miss history class?

Akash : yes, you have been sleeping for more than 3 hours.

Bhargavi : you didn't go to class either?

Akash : no, I did go to practice though, everybody took turns to watch you. Thanks to you I got to miss math.

He says with a grin.

Bhargavi has the sudden urge to tell him every minute detail about last evening even though she knows, their whole gang will know it by tomorrow, she says it all.

Akash : wait what? Did you want to break your neck or something?

Bhargavi : Akash, focus on the main subject, I was with Ethan.

Akash : Brooke? Why were you with him? If you wanted coffee you should have told me!

Bhargavi : Oh My God, what do I do with this boy? Akash, I had coffee with him because I wanted to.

Akash's confused expression returned to one filled with excitement, he chortled with laughter, loud enough for her to look around for anyone who might be hearing but thankfully there wasn't anyone. She quietly tries to calm him down. But his squeals are too loud, she just covers her ears just in case they lose their hearing. He was so happy, why wouldn't he be, for the first time she had been out to have coffee with a considerably handsome boy. Harry arrives with a confused expression on his face which clearly says, 'What's wrong with him?'. She just smiles, as he tries to take his seat, but Akash has got him before that and he is hugging him. He stops after some time just to ask her about the details. He fills in Harry with everything,

Harry : so I guess I can finally ask someone apart from you for prom? Yay.
