I opened the door to our room with hot samosas in hand. Radhika looked concerned.
"What happened? You seem upset"
"I want to tell you something."
"Yeah?"
"I... I texted that guy who pinged me that I was cute"
"Ok. Did you find out who he is?"
"No, he didn't tell yet"
"Oh ok. He is playing a curiosity game on you. Be Careful"
"Ok"
"Come let's eat samosas"
"That's it. You are not mad at me about texting a stranger?"
"Come on girl, do you think I would not text him if I am in your place? We would want to know who thinks we are cute. It's basic curiosity, right? Chill. I know you were testing him when you were laughing at seeing the phone this evening. Lekha and I had a bet to see when you will tell me. Luckily I won" I laughed thinking about how Lekha would react now.
"I love you two"
"Awwwww. Samosas are good when eaten hot. Come"
That's it we started eating samosas and I started playing an episode from the "How I Met Your Mother?" series.
The next day, once we reached our class, Radhika's phone chimed and I knew it was Mr. X.
"Your hair is so pretty"
"He seems kinda creepy Radhika" I said
"Yeah, it's kinda weird", she agreed
"What's his dp?", questioned Lekha
"No, I can't see. Guess he didn't save my number."
Lekha suggested telling him that his comment was a bit creepy. And Radhika did the same.
Her phone chimed during our break.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to freak you out. I thought your hair was pretty. So I said so"
"Dude I am not into this game. Better tell me who you are or I will just block you"
"Oooooh our girl is giving an ultimatum!" - Lekha
"No dude. I am not that naive to giggle at these I guess. Yesterday it was fun but today it's creepy"
"Thank God. My Radhik is back" I hugged her.
We laughed and reached the pantry.
