The morning sun rises, as Tanya woke up, prepared for the day, and checked everything one last time.
She was ready to head to Vihaan’s house, where they planned to go together since Ruhanika wouldn’t be joining them.
With her bag slung over her shoulder, Tanya called out to her aunt, "Kaki, I’m going" and headed down the alley.
She had also planned to go with Siddharth, but couldn't as he lived in a society a bit farther away.
Yash, who lived just behind her house, her aunt suggested her to go with him.
However, Tanya wasn’t keen on that.
She had spent nearly every weekend at Yash's house because her aunt worked there with his mom, and her aunt was very protective, not wanting to leave her alone at home.
As Tanya walked, she suddenly felt someone grab her bag from behind, causing her to bump into the person. Turning around, she saw Yash standing there, looking at her with a questioning gaze.
Tanya felt a knot in her stomach, she had been avoiding Yash for the past three weeks, and the previous day, during their practice session, she hadn’t spoken to him at all.
Not even a little bit.
"Why are you doing this?" Yash asked, a mix of anger and hurt in his voice.
Tanya sighed and said, "What are you talking about?"
"Don’t play innocent. Why are you ignoring me?" Yash asked, adjusting the strap of her school bag on her shoulder which seems to be falling.
"What’s stressing you out?" Yash asked, taking her hand and starting to walk with her.
"Nothing, Yash. Everything’s alright," Tanya said, itching her earlobe nervously.
"Do you really think of me as your best friend? And now I don’t deserve to know what’s troubling you?" Yash asked, stepping in front of her and looking her in the eye.
"I..."
"Don’t lie. I know when you’re lying because you always itch your ear," Yash said, crossing his arms.
Realizing she couldn’t escape the situation, Tanya sighed deeply and controlled herself not to scratch her ear as she lied to him, "It’s just that I’m missing my parents. I won’t be able to go to my village until next year, so I’ve been feeling upset."
Yash’s expression softened as he took her hand again and started walking.
"If you want, we can skip this competition and go to your home," he said, his eyes shining with the excitement of what seemed like a big decision.
Tanya chuckled and playfully hit him on the head.
He flashed a smile, which did something to her, but Tanya took a small step away from him.
