Kya Yhi Pyaar Hai?

PRANTHA GAURD?

KIARA'S POV
CHAPTER 4

I yawned blinking my eyes. My love hate relation with mornings can never change. Someday I would be as energetic as hen and someday I become worst then a zombie.

I gazed around the mess hall, searching for my boy. Oh how I wish I get to see his face right now only he can fix me. It's been 18 hours since I last saw him.

"Kiara you've been standing there for 10 minutes. Take your goddam food and come here" Tany yelled from her seat, startling innocent people around here.

Showing her a middle finger I looked back at the serving tray. Taking a ceral bowl with milk I put them on my tray.
"Ye last batch hai aloo prantha ka iske baad aur nhi hai" I heard canteen staff speaking to other.

My eyes went to the severing plate where now 2 pranthas were. Swastik has always been a fan of them. I remember this was the only food I have seen him eating in our school cafeteria and mind you our school had a really good catering staff.

A hand came in my view who was about to take the left pranthas when I hit the back of it without thinking.
My eyes widen a bit before I glanced at the victim of my assault. A girl was standing there with her jaw dropped on floor as she glared at me.

"I am sorry" I apologized. She side eyed me and was about to step forward the pranthas, again
"No" I said, my voice louder then needed
"What is your problem?" She said
"Actually the thing is...I care about you " I said giving her a tight lipped smile

"Huh?" she said looking confused
"These pranthas doesn't really tastes good and you know what today the poha is really good you should try that" I said
She looked at me as if I have grown one more head.

"And you know poha is a healthier opposition. A beautiful girl like you should always go for what's the best" I said
"By the way from where did you got these ear rings" I asked
To be honest her earning does looks really pretty. They were in shape of tortoise

"I made them. I have a small business of ear rings" she said
"You do? Can I buy them from you? Can you make more designs?" I asked
She nodded excitedly and shared her insta ID with me which I happily took.

At last she left without prantha.
I was about to heave a breath of relief when I heard another someone speaking
"Bhai aaj toh aloo pranthe khaenge " a guy said to his friends
My eyes went behind him. Swastik with his friends was coming here only.

Can't this guy walk faster. Here his food is in danger but this guy today only wants to walk like a snail. The guy was almost near the counter when I did the most stupid thing ever.

I tripped him. Poor guy.
Flinching at the loud thud and looked at the guy who was now on floor, groaning in pain.
Before he could see it was me who tripped him I dashed out of that area hiding my face by hairs.

I sat on the chair with an exhausting thud. Putting my head down on table I closed my eyes. My eyes snapped open as I heard a fake cough followed by chuckle
"What was all that?" Jaanvi asked

I looked at both of them, my head still on table. They both looked at me with curiosity and amusment filled eyes.

"Things you do for love" I said sighing and looked back at the serving counter. My heart did a happy dance as I saw Swastik take parntha from the tray.

"Love huh" Jaanvi said teasingly
"Evil bitch. Tripping over a guy, slapping a girl. What are you ? Prantha gaurd?....Aur vaise bhi hai kon inmese tere wala" Tany asked
I smiled shyly at the word 'tere wala'.

"Swastik" I said smiling dreamily they both laughed shaking their head
"How?" Jaanvi asked
"Long story" I said finally looking at my abandoned cerals bowl.
"We have time. Now start" Tany said looking very interested.

"We need to ap-" the professor kept on going while I looked out of the window zoning out. If only I knew that today's class was for those who joined late I wouldn't have came here.

Maybe I should talk to the girl beside me but she seem interested in class so it's a no no. A group of boys with red jersey walked in the basket ball court which was just adjacent to the class.

I was about to look away when a sight of tall figure caught my eyes.
Fuck.
I didn't knew he was into basket ball.

Swastik along with his friend Aarav were just behind those boys in same jersey as them. Swastik had a basket ball tucked under his arm.
Can this man get any more hotter?

Putting my hand under chin I kept on looking at him. How I wish to get out of this class and sit on the bleachers. View would have been better from there.

My eyes followed his every moment as he dodges, ducked and dribbled the ball. Sweat tripped down his forehead and disappeared in the neck of his jersey. Am I feeling jealous of that mere droplet of salty water.

"Hurray" I yelled as he scored a goal
almost jumping in my seat. Take it fuckers. What did they think they can beat my Swastik in anything. In their dream

"Ms Oberoi" I heard professor yell
I looked at him with slightly wide eyes and thin lipped smile.
"Come here and solve this question and if you don't know how to then be ready to face the principle " he said sternly

Looks like I am fucked.
