"Didi, kya hua?" I heard my brother Dhruv say.
"Arey kuch nahi, gir gayi lag gaya...sprain ho gaya hai shayad. Chalne nahi ho raha hai." I replied
Dhruv looked concerned and said "Zyada dard ho raha hai?"
"Nahi, naatak karne ka shauck hai mujhe" I retorted.
"Woh mujhe pata hai, par mere time ki bhi koi value hoti hai" He continued while helping me up.
"Aaaah..dard ho raha hai aaram se!" I hissed.
Right then Ritika came and said "I think u might wanna see this"
"What?" I asked
She noticed my brother and stopped.
I told him "Tu jaa mein thodi der mein ghar aati hu"
"Then why did you call me" he said rolling his eyes.
After he left, Ritika and me settled back into the place where I was previously sitting, it was near the basketball court.
She opens her phone and shows me a video on the youngster insta account of my community. It was thankfully on the story only.
Guess what? The video was about me and Kabir..when he fell on me.
"Bhabhi pass the ball please", I hear Ivaan say
Before I could say anything Ritika got up and handed him the ball.
Ivaan glared at her and said "You are not my bhabhi Vanikaa is"
She glared back and said "You wanted the ball so just shut up and take it"
He ignored her and walked off.
She came back and I asked her "Do u perhaps like Kabir cuz I can see how jealous u have been getting everything someone is shipping us."
"Yes, I do and I don't like people taking or associating someone that is not theirs but mine" She replied with anger.
Ok Chill. Have him all you want idc.
"Also, he seemed kinda affectionate towards you, could you try and set me up on a date with him?" She asked like she hadn't just said what she did.
"No, she won't cuz I'm not interested in you" I heard HIS voice from behind me.
"Kabir, it wasn't you who I was talking about" She replied in a much sweeter and wanna be voice.
He chuckled and bent down and whispered in my ear "Be careful, of this girl right here jaaneman, she might be a backstabbing bitch"
I gulped and he just walked off. He had some strange effect on me. Whenever he was around I lost all my boldness.
But did he just call my friend a bitch. No I won't bare this. I pulled the sleeve of his hoodie and grabbed his invisible collar.
I whispered in his ear the same way he did "If she is a backstabbing bitch then you have a serious case of Bipolar disorder."
I forgot abt the people around and when I left his hoodie they all started hooting. I swear to God I saw Kabir smirking in victory as if he had accomplished something really big.
"Told you I would win the bet" I heard him talking to his friends.
"Here's the key to my house" Someone said.
I couldn't stop myself from asking this "Did you just bet on a fricking house and that too on me?"
He gave me his psychotic smile and walked off.
I stared at his retreating figure until Ritika snapped her fingers on front of my eyes.
"Did you hear me when I said I like him, now that I think of it...I actually LOVE him" She said in an obsessing voice.
"Isn't it too early to declare love, Rit" I asked.
"I've liked him for a long time now" She said.
"Ok do what u like, but he made it clear that he won't agree to go on a date with you" I said.
"He will agree when I put something at stake" She said in a very low voice. But I heard it.
