KABIR'S POV:

Today is bad. And I mean it when I say this. Because, here's the list of the happenings at the beginning of the day and for god's sake its not even afternoon and today looks fvcked up!

1) I woke up late. Why? well you all might know that already as I had received a text from a certain someone. Well, that's a whole different story. anyways, the next one.

2) Mom scolded me. Happens everyday but what's wrong in ranting?

3) I thought of coming to school on my bicycle today as I was already late, but then the freaking tire was punctured.

4) Came to school late, and was bashed for it. Not that I care, but again, Ranting.

5) And the most horrible thing for the day, My panda is absent. I received a text from her this morning saying she wasn't feeling well and won't be able to attend the school today and I should go ahead without her.

Not that I don't have any other friend in school or something, in fact I have a lot of friends. But you know, no one can fill her place. It's as if the puzzle of my life contains her as one of the most critical pieces and no other can replace it. That's the value of Nandini in my life, irreplaceable.

I was sitting on my usual place and was sulking while looking at the seat beside me which belonged to my panda and was empty today. I shouldn't have listened to her. I should've stayed with her instead. But that nerd in her which comes alive once in a while gave me a whole ass lecture on how I should not miss classes often and concentrate on studies as our boards were nearing. I shouldn't have listened to her. I am fvcking bored!

I was lost in my own world with my facing clearly showing that I was annoyed while I felt two people sitting beside me. Not them again.

GAURAV: What happened? missing someone? *teasing*

SHANVI: of course he is! seeee.. his dear best friend hasn't come today. And he is sulking like a cute bay.

KABIR: can't you guys just shut up for like one minute?

GAURAV: geez calm down princess. I seriously don't know how Nandu handles your mood swings.

SHANVI: Istg same! she's the only one who can handle him.

KABIR: get lost you both!

SHANVI: chill chill! we're leaving. Remind me to inform nandu to take you with her wherever she's going. Your frown can depress the whole world.

After saying this, they both left my side and wandered off to their seats while I just lowered my head once again and placed it on the table while my thoughts wandered off to where my home was. They were right, I couldn't stay a minute away from her. I was always with her, either physically or through texts and calls. Now that she wasn't beside me, I hated everything around me here. She's been with me ever since I was born and I've never thought of living somewhere where she won't be there beside me. I mean, its become too obvious that wherever Nandini goes, Kabir follows her. I don't know if her future partner will be okay with this or not, but I can't help it. If he's not okay then its his problem. I can't let go of my panda just because a random guy doesn't like my presence around her-

Tf is wrong with me? Why am I even thinking all this shit? We're still in 12th and my panda isn't interested in dating as well. The partner thing is out of question for a lot of time.

This is what happens to me. My thoughts wander off to god knows where whenever she isn't beside me. She's like the anchor to my wandering thoughts.

KABIR: I miss you panda.

My little pity session came to a halt when I heard a knock on my table. I swear to god if its one of those chipmunks here to annoy me again, I won't hesitate before breaking their heads.

KABIR: I sweat to god if you don't get lost-

My lips were sealed. Instantly. Because the girl in front of me was worthy of a shut mouth and open eyes.

MIHIKA: umm, did I disturb you? should I go away?

KABIR: what? oh no absolutely not! you didn't disturb me. You don't have to go away.

MIHIKA: mhmm that's good I guess if I am not troubling you. Because I plan to sit beside you today. If you don't mind, of course.

Am I dreaming or Am I dreaming?

Because there's no way its possible she wants to sit with me. I mean the Mihika Agarwal sitting with me. I must be blessed.

KABIR: absolutely not! I don't have any problem in you sitting beside me! this seat is all yours for the day.

MIHIKA: umm what about Nandini?

As soon as she mentioned Nandu's name I felt a pang in my heart. This was Nandu's seat. How could I be okay with giving this seat to someone else? But then again, she would've done this for me by herself right? She would help me spend time with mihika, right?

I believed my thoughts that she would do the same thing if she would be present here and let mihika sit beside me.

I just hope everything goes on alright. Because right now, life feels magical.

POV END

TIME SKIP

3RD HOUR.

NANDINI'S POV:

Right now I am rushing towards my classroom as I don't want to get late for the 3rd hour. I have already missed the first two hours of classes and now I was in no mood of missing any more of classes.

Okay maybe I was here to see a certain someone too. Hey! you can't blame me! I was missing him.

And I am sure he must be missing me too. He always has that sulky face on whenever I am not around him and rants about it to me when I meet him. Cute isn't it?

I skipped the first two hours because I had cold and a slight fever. All thanks to that fool who forgot to close the window while leaving last night. And I had both dad and maa giving me an earful for not being careful with the window.

Well, it was only maa I can say. Dad just kissed my forehead with worried eyes and took me to the hospital.

The doctor said I was completely fine it was just a slight fever and will be gone instantly if I took an injection.

And here's a fact about me. I hate injections.

Dad was about to reject the doctor on injection and was asking for tablets when I jumped in between and asked for giving me the injection.

Dad had his eyes out of their sockets when I insisted upon taking the injection but didn't question much when I told I wanted to attend classes as it was boards this year. Dad never questions me on this. He trusts me. And I love him so much.

So, After nearly losing my breath while taking the injection, for a certain fool of course, here I am in the school corridor about to reach my class room. Hope he'll be as excited as I am when he sees me.

I fastened my steps even more and ran towards the classroom. The excitement in me was being converted into energy as I couldn't wait anymore to see him. To talk to him. To fight with him. To gossip with him.

Love makes you do crazy things. And yeah, I surely was in love with that idiot. There was no point in denying it. Hopefully, he loves me too.

With this new found enthusiasm I stepped towards the class room and dashed through the door. All the eyes were on me but I couldn't care less. My eyes were roaming to find him but when I did, my heart broke into pieces.

Because I saw him smiling while talking to another girl. The girl who was sitting in my place. The girl whom he likes from too long. The girl who I can never be. But she definately did take my place and it didn't look like he had any problem with it. In fact he looked happy even.

I had tears in my eyes when I heard Gaurav shouting my name.

GAURAV: Nandu you're here?! damn girl we all missed you.

As soon as he heard it, his eyes darted towards me and he stood up with a huge smile on his face. But what's the use, Kabir? My place has been stolen already.

I faced gaurav and waved him hii while a fake smile was plastered all along on my face.

Kabir tried coming out of the bench to meet me but then Mihika stood up and spoke.

MIHIKA: hey, umm, did you mind that I took your place today? If you don't like it then I can go sit somewhere else.

I turned my face to look at Kabir and his face did lose some glow when she spoke about leaving the place.

With my heart feeling heavy, I nodded my head as a no and gave her a smile.

NANDINI: no, that's not at all a problem. You can sit here. I'll just find some other seat. It was me who was late anyhow.

She gave me a huge smile and muttered a thank you while I felt his gaze on my face all along. But I didn't have the courage to look at him. Because I knew, If I did look at him, then I would break down.

I felt a slight pull on my sleeve when I turned around to find Shanvi pulling me with her.

SHANVI: sit with me today, the seat beside me is empty.

I just nodded at her and went with her, not sparing a single glance at Kabir but I could feel his gaze on my back continously.

I sighed and sat beside Shanvi and lowered my head on the table as the tears in my eyes were about to pool out.

Today, it was just a seat, Kabir. I don't know what else will be taken away from me in the future.
