Her school days

7. Truth and dare

Author's pov

These two weeks were very difficult for all of them. These nights were their sleepless nights and the days were restless. They all were too much excited to go to the trip along with their friends.

Finally the day for the trip came. They were standing near the school bus. All of them were in casual clothes.

Komal's pov

I was standing near the bus with my girls. We all were dressed beautifully. We all were wearing same type of clothes of different colours.

We entered inside the bus and saw all the four boys sitting together-krish, ansh, aarav and rihaan. They all were also in their usual clothes wearing similar sweat shirts.

We all sat together and all of us tucked an earplug in our ears and enrolled listening to using. It was almost a long five hours journey so I slept at my seat while others were engrossed in listening to music. I woke up when a message popped up in our Instagram friends group the zoo. It was ansh's message. I rubbed my eyes, I was sleeping for more than four hours. I asked ishi who was sitting beside me," what were you all doing the whole journey." "Nothing just we played antakshari for some time and then we started listening to music and let me tell you, you are a kumbharan, how can someone sleep in such noice." Then I checked the group.

In group

Ansh: why are you all engrossed in your phones.

Anika:so what shall we do

Ansh: let's play something

Krish: but other children can get disturbed, we are not sitting alone in the bus.

Ansh: let's play truth and dare, no one will get disturbed if we play this game.

All messaged: Sure let's start

Author's pov

They all got up from their seats and sat together in a circle at the back seat of the bus.
"Okay so here is the bottle and the rules of the game is no person can choose truth or dare two times in a row. If he chooses truth then next time he has to choose a dare ok. And whoever is not able to do the dare or not give the answer he has to drink this." He said and opened his bottle, "this is juice, I made it at home, it has karela, lauki and beetroot, if you lose you have to drink it."
They all agreed and ansh spinned the bottle. Suddenly someone's hand stopped it,"you did not invited me to play! I also want to play with you all" rihaan said. "Ok sit" said ashi and let him sit beside her. Komal gave him a death look and showed her tongue to him, he also did the same but was not visible through mask so he rolled his eyes in response. Ansh again spinned the bottle and it stopped on ishi," I choose dare" "ok give me your money now, it is your dare" aarav said. "Shut up aarav, think for a nice dare." Krish said to him in a serious tone. "Shortstuff, you go to shrey and tell him that you love him, and then you can tell him the truth after our game is over." Ishi's eyes widened in response to his dare,"but he was my childhood bestfriend, I considered him my brother, how can I." " You have to otherwise drink this ansh's special juice." Anika said.
Ishi stood up and came there after completing the dare. She was looking pissed off.
"What happened?" They all asked in unison
"he said he love me too that too from childhood. I could not tolerate this lie so I told him that it was a dare" they all widened their eyes.
But since ishi had no choice other than that to tell him the truth they all considered the dare complete.

Ansh again spinned the bottle and it landed on rihaan. "I choose dare" all of them smirked and said in unison "remove your mask".
He immediately nodded in disagreement and took up the glass of juice. But when he smelled it he dropped the idea to drink the juice. "Okay, I am removing my mask but this is the secret as no one in the school had seen my face till now". Saying this he removed his mask slowly.

As soon as he removed his mask everyone's eyes widened in shock" you are handsome Mr maskman, why did you hid your face under that mask" said komal unaware of what she just said. Krish was looking with disbelief at komal. He became sad but immediately curtained his emotions. Ashi was just staring at him when his voice broke her glare," I told you I am handsome miss crackhead" saying this he pulled up his mask again. "Wait why are you wearing it again," asked ansh. Not only girls but all the three boys were admiring him. "I don't want to show my face to anyone especially girls."
"But why" they all asked in unison.
"I will definitely tell you all when the right time will come" saying this he spinned the bottle to prevent further conversations about his face.

This time the bottle landed on Anika " I will choose truth"
"what do you like about in everyone of us."
" Ashi's jealousy when I talk to ansh, ishi's blabbering nature, komal's helping nature,.... Aarav is talented, I like how he is talented in every field.... Krish's handsome face... Rihaan's grey eyes."

Then she looked towards ansh. She made a face. " I like nothing about him." She said making a weird face. "Ohh come on Anika, ansh is not that bad" ishi said. "Yes" we all agreed with ishi. "Okay, I like his jokes" she said rolling her eyes. And then immediately spinned the bottle. It landed on krish. "I choose truth"
" how many girlfriends you had till now, name all of them." Rihaan asked him.
"I was always single, I never had any girlfriend."
"Okay so how many crushes you had till now, name all of them." Krish rolled his eyes on his question,
" I got crush on many girls I can't tell you how many and I also forgot their names so I deny answering this question." He said rudely.
"Let's do one thing, you make your bitter tongue more bitter, now you have to drink this juice, you did not answered the question." Aarav said. He took a small paper cup, filled the juice till top and drank it in one go. There were no expressions on his face.

"Do you even have emotions or not you emotionless creature" ashi said.
She spinned the bottle and it stopped on komal"I choose dare" " you have to do staring challenge with krish and whoever blinks first has to tell a truth that will be asked by them." This dare was given by Anika. She never looses a chance to tease komal.
"1... 2... 3... Start" ansh started the challenge and they both started looking at each other. Krish was lost in her eyes. She has beautiful eyes behind those two glasses he wondered. He was lost in her while she was feeling shy and wanted to blink hard. Finally unable to maintain the blush she blinked her eyes. Krish was still lost looking at her with a small cute smile on his face. "You lost sweety. What question should be asked from her Anika." Asked ishi.

"Tell us your crush name if you have any." Anika gave the dare.

"I can't tell my crush's name infront of my crush but I also don't want to drink this juice. What should I do." Komal was thinking about this when suddenly teacher's voice came.

"Children get out of the bus, we reached out destination. Don't forget anything in the bus especially money and phone." Komal immediately stood up hearing this took out her luggage and ran outside the bus. All her belongings were in bag only so she didn't need to check even once.

"She got a good luck." Anika said in irritated tone.

Ishi got up and was struggling to get her luggage from the top. She is short. " Shortstuff, you are too short to get your stuff down from that height let me help you." Saying this aarav took the luggage and kept it on the floor.
Ishi shouted in anger" thank you so much Mr dino for your favour but i didn't need your help". They all left the bus.
"Looks like someone got a really good Nick name." Ansh whispered this in aarav's ear and ran away.
Aarav rolled his eyes and walked forward to join all the other kids.
