I got shocked seeing all my past classmates standing in front of me, as was exiting the conference hall.
All were dressed up in beautiful traditional indian clothes, whereas I was in my work formals. They were stunned seeing me after 8 years of high school.

Nikhil's eyes were not leaving my face. They were warm, brown and looked different, I was not able to guess. Ruhani my classmate approached me and asked, "Have you come to attend the  engagement party?"

Observing my confused face, with a smile he said, "Its Samaira's engagement today, our batchmate. All of us have gathered for it. I am sure she wouldn't mind, if you accompany us. Not many of her school friends are attending. So will you join us?"

I answered,"Umm, I am not invited by her and I have not been in touch with her since school, so I won't feel comfortable attending it. Thank you for inviting by the way."

His friends were observing the two of us very closely. Rishab approached us with a smirk and said, "He is asking you attend it, as he has a crush on you since a very long time."

Both of us were shocked and he was glaring at Rishab. I felt weird standing there, so I said "I am getting late. I have to go. It was nice to see everyone once again." 

Taking one last look at his face, I turned to leave and approached the elevator, that's when I heard from him "Can you not go please?"
