Masked Love

Chapter 7

With a sly grin, Nitya decided to add a twist to their conversation. She leaned in and asked, "Hey, guys, just for fun, what's your 'type' when it comes to, you know, dating?"

Jenisha chuckled and replied, "Well, I'm sapiosexual. Intelligence is a must for me. I'd love someone who's pretty smart."

Nitya, nodding in agreement, added, "Totally, Jeni could love someone who's pretty smart."

Arushi couldn't resist a mischievous tease and said, "Someone like
"geometry "from our class, maybe?" She let out a laugh, and the others joined in, teasing Jenisha.

Jenisha blushed a bit but laughed along with her friends, admitting, "Well, maybe or maybe not..."

Yuvika, however, put on an exaggerated expression of disapproval and said, "Him? Seriously, Jenisha? Our class topper? I'm
disappointed."
"Okok let's move on, what about you huh!?"

Yuvika, said, "My type? Well, I'd love a tall guy who's funny and adventurous , We'd be like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde , but without the crime .
They must also think I'm the funniest person they've ever met and be up for cute, husband-material gestures, like planning surprise dates. Oh, and they better know how to make me blush.

Arushi, grinned and said, "My type is someone with a quick response time, strong meme game, and a knack for finding the most obscure Instagram accounts. Bonus points if they can make even me look up from my phone."

Nitya giggled and teased, "I guess my type is a character straight out of a Webtoon manga.
Dramatic, intense, and always blushing.
And it will be cherry on cake, if he's an introverted cutie.
But they better not interrupt my reading time."

Yuvika, always quick to catch on, raised an eyebrow and teased, "I think I get what you're hinting at. Someone like Aman, huh?"

Nitya, playing along, winked and replied, "Well, maybe, but not exactly HIM.
Aman's already taken by Mehul hehe."

Arushi chimed in , "Haha, Nitya, be as delusional as you want, girl. We're here for the entertainment."

As the four friends continued their lively conversation about dating preferences, Nitya couldn't help but notice something. Aman and Mehul, two introverted classmates they often saw in the classroom, had been sitting together recently. Their quiet yet intriguing interactions sparked Nitya's curiosity.

With a sly grin, she leaned in and playfully teased her friends, "You know, guys, I can't help but wonder if there's more to Aman and Mehul's classroom antics than meets the eye.
And remember , that arm fondling thing !!!?? Maybe they're secretly a thing?"

Jenisha, Yuvika, and Arushi exchanged curious glances, stifling laughter. Jenisha responded, "Nitya, you have the wildest imagination. I think they're just friends or maybe they're studying partners."

Yuvika, known for her sense of humor, chimed in, "Yeah, I heard Aman tried to help Mehul with his math, and that's when the bicep thing happened. Could be innocent, or maybe they're just secretly in love with math."

Arushi, never without her phone, added with a grin, "Or maybe they're plotting to overthrow the math teacher and establish themselves as rulers of the classroom."

Nitya, still with a twinkle in
her eye, leaned back and winked, "Well, you never know what secrets are hiding behind those introverted smiles. I'm just here to uncover the truth."
