The Love Maze

5) A Vibrant Mess up

Vivan's POV

Sleep

It was all that took over me while I sat in the fourth row, hearing Mrs. Jha going on about inflation and deflation for the umpteenth time.

I let my eyes wander around a little to divert myself. And as always Aditi was so keen on listening to the lecture

Beside her, sat Kyra who occasionally shot glares down my way.

Wait! What for?

I searched and found the answer right beside me. He noticed my accusing looks and silently questioned me

"Did you do anything to get on the bad side of the new girl?" I asked, knowing well there was something.

"Umm... Maybe or maybe not", he said fiddling with his pen.

Now that's an answer

Before another question, he began pretending to be interested in the lecture instead.

Yes.... pretend is the right word

Bored, I tore a sheet from my useless notebook. 'Bo, I'm bored'

Her catching skills were not impressive, maybe due to the fact she wasn't alarmed. Anyways, the crushed paper hit her head and fell near her desk.

She turned around with an irritated look on her face. I gestured to her to pick the paper on the floor. She did, scribbling something in it and threw it back.

'Go!!Hit the wall then'

I scoffed at her reply, thinking of the perfect words to make a comeback. But Mrs. Jha's voice gained my attention.

"So class, don't forget to submit your project next week", she concluded.

How much did I miss?
What project?!?

The class dismissed faster than usual owing to the torture of the lecture.

"You aren't coming?" Rishi asked nudging me

We walked away to our lockers

"Just help me get the supplies. I'll handle the rest for the project", Aditi said out of no where

We both stared at her, preplexed

"I know,you wouldn't have paid heed to a single thing Mrs. Jha said", She added with a confident smile

"Wait? This is a group project!?" Rishi questioned confused

"Bonus points for your attention skills, Ri", Dee patted his shoulders in sarcasm while he smiled sheepishly.

On a serious note, I don't know how I would survive without her.

With overdue assignments,projects and complicated lessons ,I would probably be a drop out

"Alright...Let's gather at Rishi's house to work on the project",I suggested

"After class",she said as we did our fist bump

Kyra's POV

I stood outside the hall as I tapped my feet against the ground

Remind me again.... why the fuck I have to do this?

I never been into writing and let alone forcing me to be with a group of people who love to do that won't make me like it

But there isn't any other choice
