IF YOU HATE SOMEONE

Chapter 5

Dev

Walking down the hallway all I could do was put headphones to avoid the noise.Useless speeches and irritating programs to be held and they call it fresher's day.

What a pity.

I can see that nerd running along the side  stage with a writing pad.Bro's gonna win professors' heart.I rolled my eyes as I continues to walk.

"Hey excuse me"

A voice echoed behind me.Then a girl handed me her bag and smiled at me cutely.

"Can you hold this for a minute,I'll be right back." She's gone without even listening to me and I stood there like a fool.

Well wtf.

I walked into the washroom where she just left and there she is putting on a lipstick.

"Hey hold this damn thing to yourself ok" I groaned.

She just giggled and twirled a hair strand with her finger,looking straight to my eyes through the mirror.

"Why so mad stud?" She asked

Well she looks hot indeed

I didn't said anything as I don't know her intentions.

"I liked your performance at canteen last week" She circled around me

I furrowed my eyebrows as she kept saying how often she checked me.Suddenly my eyes widened as she touched my abs under the sweatshirt.It took everything in me not to lose control when she ran her nails.
I don't know this girl but I definitely know her intention is not to become friends.

She looked upon me through her lashes and then I lose it.Well some fun won't hurt anyone.

I pushed her against the wall and kissed down her neck to her collarbone.She tried to kiss me but I retreated.

"I don't just kiss anyone"

She don't even care because she pushed my face into her neck immediately.
I said and continued my movements and licked along her skin.I literally dragged my tongue from her neck to her inviting cleavage that I choose to ignore-

"DEV!!! " A voice stopped my movements

"What do you want idiot?" I asked annoyingly to Aayush

"Wtf are you doing here.. Come I need your help with something"

"Like right now?"

"Yeah right now"

I sighed and the stepped out of the washroom.Before we left I turned to the girl.

"Aditi by the way" She said picking up her bag.

"It's Dev.. I'll see you around" I winked at her and walked to the side stage with nerd.

"You never let me have some fun don't ya?" I asked annoyingly and he ignored

***

"What?? I can't write this damn stuff" I grumbled

"Bro please who else would I ask?" Aayush smiled with his teeth.

"Strip then"I said nonchalantly

"Wtf! Are you..?" Aayush's eyes widened

"Ew I'm not gay but if you want a favor from me,get naked homie"

"You're so real for this man." He rolled his eyes  "Do it for me?"

"Go ask your second half"

"Come on Dev she's like my sister and she's getting ready for her performance"
He ranted "So please do write this on the sheet while I check on performers."

I sighed and looked at the paper I have to write.Pookie then gone to check.Names of students are written on it and I spot that rice bag's name.Well I already knew she's gonna do some dance but this time,it's gonna be fun.. very fun.

I smirked internally and started to do what pookie told me to do.

One hour into the program and I'm already started to get bored.I would've been having some fun with that Adiya or whatever girl or played videogame in my room.Me and Aayush sat at the front row and I'm ready to see the real fun.I just have to wait.

The host announced that mosquito's name and I couldn't be more excited.
I watched her coming to the stage and a song played instantly that she made moves.

This girl is flexible but I don't care.

Nerd looks so proud of his 'sister'.Two minutes passed and suddenly the speaker emitted rap music.

This is so cool.

Everyone cheered and whistled to the music and there she is watching everyone with wide eyes.

Oh you gonna cry weakling?Do it then.

I also joined everyone and cheered making loud noises at her.Aayush ran to the  side stage and turned the music off.Idiot.

He said something to her and they walked out of the stage.While walking back all she looked at was me her eyes red,tears threatening to spill.

I just winked at her as she throw daggers with her eyes,finally out of my way.

***

Aayush literally scold me like a parent whole day that I don't even care.He said so much things I almost thought he's in love with that girl untill he said something.
His voice lingered in my head that I tried to clear but I just couldn't.

'Her sister was there,she cried because of this,because of you'

Damn it

Memories that I don't wanna remember filled my mind and I don't know what to do.I pulled out a beer bottle from under the bed before Aayush snatched it from me.

"Give that back asshole"

"Not until you apologize to her"

"Apologize?Me apologize?Never"

"Then you're not gonna drink even if you beat me"

"You-

A loud knock stopped our argument and we looked each other.The knock become rapid and Aayush goes to open the door.

"Oh hi what are you doing here?" He said astonishingly and I looked up to see Dhwani marching to me.

"Are you happy now?" She asked,rage evident on her face.

"Very" I mumbled

"Oh I see.. You think you're something,greater than anyone else but you know what?You're nothing just a zero who tries to show off." She said breathlessly and I remained quiet  "you don't care about people or their emotion well useless pricks are always like that."

I closed my eyes for a second.I don't know what I'm feeling now to be exact.Rage?Agony?Numb?

The words themselves swirling in my head like a loop.

"Here" She thrusted my wallet on my hand "you forgot to take this while you came to change the pendrive"

I didn't looked at her just stared at the door as she turned to leave.After saying goodnight and thanks to Aayush she turned to me once more, "And if I'm a rice bag,you're chaat masala" Then she left leaving us there.

I saw Aayush tries hard to hide his smile.But the only thing I could focus was the words in my head and the wallet in my hand.Opening it gently I stared at the picture inside smiling at me.
