Waste It On Me

●𝟮~𝗞𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗻●

Tejasswi Prakash.

Somebody I hated to my core. Nothing personal, but she was the only one who could ever reach my scores. I wasn't a psycho, I just breathed academic validation. I wasn't planning to do anything about it.

One percent, small difference, but still I was the first.

"So mass bunk it is!" I heard a silvery voice shout in the class.

Black eyes. Brown hair. Beautiful face.
That was Tejasswi, but for me, she was only the girl who called my grades out.

The only aim I had this year, to have a difference of at least four to five percent between the results. I didn't care if I had to score a full 10.

Maybe I was a psycho.

It had been a month into the second year, and it was our 4th mass bunk. I didn't come to the class if they called out a mass bunk. I was a nerd, as they called me, but I wasn't a bore. I had to have fun too.

If fun meant going back home early when there's a mass bunk and playing games.

I was going to my science yearly olympiad for a week. I had worked out with the teachers, since I didn't have a student to ask the study material from. Shruti ma'am had been really supportive with my attendance, she just asked me to smile once.
That wasn't weird, was it?

I shrugged it off and opened my book as I sat on the bus station. I was concentrated, no matter what happened, I had to score a good AIR in the olympiad. I have been preparing for three months now, it's not going to be that bad, will it?

I was sitting on the outer seat when I felt a raindrop. Picking up my book, I stood up to go behind before I banged into somebody. She was about to fall backward so I pulled her wrists strongly.
She crashed into my chest before she looked back.

Black cat eyes. I could recognize these eyes from a far distance. Tejasswi Prakash, near the bus stand?

"I am so sorry, and thank you."

"You're fine." I asserted and she panted. "It started raining suddenly, I didn't feel like it'd rain today at all. Are you studying for the science olympiad by the way?" She asked, looking at my book. Did she speak to everyone that much?

Oh my god.

"Yes." I answered shortly. She gave me a weird look before finding a seat under the shade. "The day sucks." I heard the silvery voice whimper. I looked at her and she pouted at her phone. Who does that now?

Ugh, focus on the olympiad. You see? That is my problem. She was a distraction. The lean frame, that beautiful smile, that gorgeous body, everything about her was a distraction.

And I was somebody who hated being distracted. That was not how it was going to work in my life. My life would work according to the plans I make.

A week into this, uh, relief from college classes also. More than I hated the fact that she was academically perfect, she was also empathic and it sucked. Because she was naive.

Shut up with Tejasswi's thoughts, can you?

I schooled my thoughts and my bus arrived. I went inside and found a seat, I didn't want to but my eyes went towards Tejasswi whose brother stood along with her, giving her an umbrella. I looked away instantly, and the bus moved.
