Nothing Lasts Forever.. PS: Nothing = Love!

Chapter 9: Everything happened so fast!

Moirai's POV 

“Leo”, he introduced himself, offering his hand.

As if I don’t know your Leo, I mocked to myself. He was wearing a green (my favourite colour) checkered shirt and dark jeans. He had his glares on. I remember he had brown eyes. He looked as if he was one of the models from television. Cute! His broad jaw line and a two-three days stubble gave him a very mature look. His perfect voice added cherry to the cake.

 “Moirai”, I blushed.

I am talking to Leo! I can dance better than those dancers in Step Up (in my mind, ofcourse!)

He took off his glares and I saw his melt-in-the-mouth-chocolate-eyes. How can a guy have hot looks, awesome voice and perfect physic all at the same time! I see why girls go crazy for him.

“Do you walk down to your place?”, he asked. I replied with a nod.

What does he want? A guy like him can never be interested in me! Anyone but me!

Maybe it’s some prank?

Maybe he is doing this for some bet?

Maybe he just wants to be friends?

Maybe ...

“Can I accompany you, I am going in the same directions as yours”, he asked again.

What are we playing some question and answer round? Will get prizes for right answers? Why is he suddenly interested in talking to me? Why have we met in the first place?

Aaaarrrrggghhh , he is creeping me out now! What does he want?

He did not speak for a while now. He would look at me and then move his eyes away from me as soon as I noticed his stare.

“Stop staring”, I uttered under my breath. He did not hear me. Thank God he didn’t.

“Do you mind if I ask you a question?”, he asked, asking a question already. What was he doing uptil now? And suddenly he asks me whether he can ask me a question. Isn’t he firing questions at me from the time we met?

I nodded.

“What does the word Moirai mean?”, he asked looking genuinely curious.

He met me just to know what did the word Moirai meant! He could have asked Prapti to ask me instead of meeting me like this, if this is all he wanted to know! Not that I did not like meeting him.

“Moirai means Destiny”, I told him. Moirai is a Greek word that means Destiny, I loved my name because it was different. I had never met another girl named Moirai yet.

“Woaw! You have a beautiful name, Moirai”, he remarked.

I blushed. He thinks I have a beautiful name!

No! Wait! Why am I acting like a typical girl? Chuck! No more blushing when he compliments me.

Shags! I have to tell her about Leo. But, what do I know about Leo? I think it’s a bet.

“What’s the bet?”, I asked clearing my throat. Now, it’s time for you to answer!

“What bet?”, he counter-questioned me! Can’t he answer a question and not keep firing question at me.

“The bet because of which you are here, talking to me”, I shot back.

“No, Theres no bet. I am not here for any bet. I am here because ...”, his voice trailed off.

Drama King!

“Tell me already, will you?”, I said getting irritated.

“Nothing”, he whispered.
