If Only

Chapter 09

(Isha POV)

I never knew someone like him. In fact, no one confessed their feelings like him.

He confessed like I am... 

The oxygen he needs to survive,

The water for a flower to bloom, 

The light for the darkness in the world...

I should probably stop overthinking. Yeah, I should.

I got on my bed and fell with my back, I closed my eyes and all I could think is his confession. 

What is wrong with me? 

I saw him with bullet wounds for the first time. Later, I found him stalking me everywhere. 

But, he is cute and handsome though. Also, his feelings kind of seemed genuine. 

The voices in my continued to bicker with each other.

"Ah!!!! Stop it, will you?", I shouted.

"Gosh, that startled me", I heard a voice.

"Sorry, Di", I apologized to Dia.

"Don't", Dia warned everyone gets worked up when one apologizes or thanks for small things in our group but we can't help with that.

"Also, who is this person who happens to get on your nerves?", she asked.

I took and deep breathe and looked down at my phone. Soon, Anya and Nivi entered.

"What is happening here?", Anya asked looking at both of us.

"Someone got her nerves and she is very well pissed by that someone", Dia explained.

"Okay.... So? Who is this? Is this someone a he?", Nivi started.

"Don't", I glared at her. I knew at this moment where this is going.

"So it is a he. Nice", Nivi giggled.

Dia and Anya are clearly enjoying this. 

(After an hour)

"What the-?", Nivi stopped her cursing mid-sentence.

"A person was stalking you?", Dia asked.

"And you found him with bullet wounds the first time?", Anya asked.

"And he dared to confess you even though he got punched every time he approached you?", Nivi asked.

"Yes. Yes. And yes", I nodded.

"What is this? A fanfiction?", Nivi asked.

"Legit, right?", I stated.

"I only read on fanfiction since you two were telling me to read and the accuracy of your story and that one, I can't", Dia said.

"What are you planning on doing now?", Anya asked.

"I have no idea. I need time to process", I said.

"Welcome to the processing club, dude", Nivi cheered.

"I don't know if I should laugh or kill you for that statement", I said.

"Why? What is wrong with that?", Nivi asked.

"I am processing because the person who confessed me isn't someone I know or met in a very human-friendly environment", I clarified.

"Nivi, she got a point though. You atleast need to tell Keshi you are processing rather than ghosting him", Dia told.

"You people can't gang up on me now", Nivi whined.

"No one is ganging up on you, we are just telling you not to lose what you have and wanted", Anya told.
