She was staring at me and absentmindedly i uttered, "Did you fall for me?"

I said to tease her but there is something inside me which is making me restless.

I just said to irritate her but my heart is waiting for her reply.

She stammered and replied, "Good night, I'm feeling sleepy. You should go too."

She ran to her room, and I just stood there, watching her retreating figure.

I muttered to myself, "You need to control your mouth, Vihu," then pressed my forehead slightly and walked to my assigned room.

How could I just blabbered like this in front of her?

She is thinking of me that I am mad.

When I opened the door, the lights were off, but suddenly they turned on to reveal two clowns watching me.

"You just went to fill the water bottle, right?" Yash asked, smirking and eyeing me closely.

I ruffled my hair and put the water bottle on the side table.

"Yes," I replied with a shrug.

"So, what took you so long?" Sid asked, peeking out from under his blanket.

These two crackheads.

"I... forgot the way," I said as my tongue stuttered badly.

'Wow, you've embarrassed me. Is this what i have taught you, to come up with such a lame excuse?', my brain mocked me.

They both stared at me keenly, and I gulped hard, fearing that if they found out what really happened, they'd tease me endlessly.

"Tune hame bewakoof samajh rakha hai?", Sid said.

(Do you think we're fools?)

"Samajhna kya hai, ab Jo hai woh hai," i replied shrugging my shoulders.

(What is there to understand? What's true is true)

"Oh really? Then I think I saw your ghost with Ruhanika... By the way, what were you doing with her so late?" Yash asked, crossing his arms interrogating me like I am some criminal.

I cleared my throat and said, "She was anxious about tomorrow, so I was just trying to motivate her."

"Yeah, sure, motivating her by standing so close that not even air could pass between you two. I saw you both," Yash said, rolling his eyes.

I coughed awkwardly.

He knew.

But how?

"That doesn't matter. What were you doing there?" I shot back at him.

"I went to look for you because you didn't come," Yash said, huffing as he lay back in bed.

"Liar, he went to meet Tanya," Sid said scrunching his eyebrows.
