Aap Koun Hai? PT 1

Amara's Pov

Tears well inside my eyes.
I thought going to the park or something might cheer me up, but it didn't. The sun is shining, the sky is clear, the bench is thankfully clean this time, there is a slight breeze and people pass down the concrete blocks peacefully.

And me? I am here wanting to break down in tears. How could Payal leave me like that?
At first when she said she was dating Vihaan I didn't believe her, especially not after Mr.Leela's visit.

I wondered how a guy like that could drop a deal so easily, but it's obvious now. He is making her fake date Vihaan for God knows whatever reason, and she doesn't want me to know about it.

It really wasn't rocket science to figure that out, especially since she cannot act.

But did she really have to prove it to me like that? The way she waded over to that group leaving me behind, emphasizing how I really don't have anyone but her.

How separated I was from the people who I am supposed to hang out with.

A stingful heavy gulp slides down my throat leaving an uneasy feeling in my stomach.

Before I knew it I felt a body of heat next to me.
"Hawww don't cry princess"

I spin my head recognizing that voice and I am met with Kairav's face, who is sitting next to me on the bench and handing a tissue in front.
He grins slyly and honestly I am too shocked to care.

I feel the heat rising on my cheeks, his eyes twinkle with golden flecks reflecting from the sunlight

Snap out of it. We don't like him he is our competition

I look at him and then the tissue in his hand

I snatch it and turn ahead "Firstly, I am not your Princess and secondly I hate you so leave"

I stare ahead but a part of me wantd to see his reaction, so from the corner of my eyes I peek at him. He hasn't removed his gaze from me but his smile has dropped.

"That wasn't very nice Princess."
My irritation is reaching its peak. Princess? Is he trying to flirt with me or taunt me?

Well obviously the latter considering what happened in the cafeteria, but why is he here and rubbing it in my face so openly?

"Is my Princess upset?"

I snap my head to him, glaring, he has the audacity to use my?
I know my nose is red but he is unbothered, and instead he leans back in the bench and watches amused
But my heart is also fluttering despite my anger.Princess.
And that makes me even more angry.

I am done with him if I stay any longer he will know about my stupid crush.

I get up to leave "You are such a headache Amir log ki bache-"

(Rich brat-)

But he suddenly panics and pulls me back down on the bench "okay I am I am sorry I was just having some fun." He says quickly "But all jokes aside, I really need to talk to you"

I sigh and land back on the bench. My smart side tells me to just go and ignore him, I already have a crush if I get any closer it will take months to get rid of.

But my curious side is stronger. What does he need to tell me? I wonder. It wouldn't hurt to know right, it is a nice distraction from Payal.

"What?" I snap, turning to him, head high. "Say it fast I don't have time"

He leans on the bench on his side to face me and a breath escapes his mouth.
"Look Amara I know you don't like me but hear me out about Payal. It's not her fault. It was Vihaan who asked her out first."
