Chapter-12

The message Avantika sent to Advait was no less than the confession of love and something more than the love letter. It was her emotions, her unfiltered emotions.

She had switched off her phone first but then turned it on. She was anxious. She was wondering if he would message her? But she had already uninstalled WhatsApp. She can't get his message.
What he must be thinking of her? She had so many thoughts and they weren't letting her sleep.

She tried to remember what exactly was the message that she sent him, and she remembered that it was a mix of love she felt for him and a mix of anger at him for not loving her back.

And that was when she got a call from Advait. She was afraid to pick it up, she was making faces, she was scared but picked it up, and slowly said, "hello"

Advait : "Hello, Avantika,"

There was silence.

Avantika : "That message, I didn't send it. It was my friend, Aditi, she was doing a prank on me."

Advait : "Strange!" (His voice was calm, but not showing any emotions)

Avantika : "Strange? Why? I am telling the truth" (her voice was anxious, and showing lots of emotions)

Advait : "I'll talk tomorrow, if it wasn't you then there's nothing much to talk about it."

Avantika : "If it was me, i mean if you had thought it was me, then there would had been something to talk about?"

Advait : "Yes"

Avantika : "What?"

Advait : "In that message, you confessed your love, wouldn't it be rude if I don't reply to that?"

Avantika : "So reply on it."

Advait : "But it wasn't you, so there's no point."

Avantika : "If it was me, then would you have said yes or no? I am just curious, not like I sent it."

Advait : "I would have said yes."

Avantika's heart beat raced and it felt like her heart will come out of her body, she was feeling something she had never felt ever before.

Advait : "But it wasn't you, right?"

Avantika wanted to tell that it was her but then, Advait said something.

Advait : "Of course, it wasn't you. You are a good girl. Not a peeping tom looking at my naked body."

And Avantika immediately became embarassed and realized that she had mentioned that in the message. How stupid!

Avantika : "No, that's not me. Hey can you forward my message back to me? Maybe in text message. Aditi deleted the message so I couldn't see it. But I wanna read it once so I know how far she took the prank. Thank you. Bye. Good night."

She cut the call. She was hitting the pillow in anger and anguish but she was also blushing thinking that he would have said yes!!!! Does it mean that he loves her too?

Then she got the message. And she began reading, trying hard not to cringe.

The message -

Advait, I love you. Yes, I do. I wanted to not tell you this but I can't control anymore. But more than this, I am angry at you and I hate you. First of all, I saved you that day. Why? Because I care for you. I dont know how it happened but it happened and I can't help it. I saved you and instead of thanking me, you wanted to slap my ass? Well, yeah, slap it, not that I care. Or maybe I do. But the slap, I didn't want to slap you in public, it just happened, out of the moment, and I didn't want to see you naked in your shower. It just happened. You have a good body and good...you know what I mean. I don't know what I am writing, it's all rubbish, the only non-rubbish thing is that I feel something for you. Yes, you are good looking, you are all that but don't be too prideful, there are other good looking guys too like Jungkook or Siddharth Malhotra, but I didn't feel love for them. I felt it for you. Maybe we have some previous life connection. Do you believe in reincarnation? You better believe it. Maybe we knew each other from previous lives and in previous life you saved me once, so I saved you once, and maybe in previous life we had some sexual chemistry too, i mean not sure but it's possible. I can't handle it anymore. I just want you to say yes or no. I just want to confess it and send this message and be over it. I can't just keep thinking of you while you don't even care for me. And is payal your girlfriend? If she isn't, tell her to not sit so close to you. It doesn't look good. It looks bad. Trust me, you shouldn't sit so close to him. People must be judging you for being a cheap guy. Do you care for your respect? Yes, you do, so don't sit that close. Okay this is it. I don't know what else to write. I am feeling stupid for writing what I wrote but who cares, do you care? If you cared for me, you would be loving me, but you don't care so I don't care. I am sending it.
