Priya's POV

After Abhay dropping me in front of the college, I calmly started the walk to my class. Why is he behaving so sweetly to me? Am I over thinking or is he overdoing? I was busy with thoughts when someone bumped into me.

"Am sorry, so sorry" that person started to apologize me while picking up my goods from the floor. "Oh, it's okay. I am fine." I said smiling at that person. He stared at me in a confusing manner. I scrutinized my brows for a few seconds and started to leave for my class when he called me. "Excuse me?" he came running to me. "Are you new to this college? Junior?" he asked while adjusting his college bag on his shoulder. "Yes, I am new to this college but not a junior." I paused "I am from the fourth year."

"Lateral entry?" he asked observing my face. I just nodded to his question. "oh, great. Myself jai and you must be?" he asked extending his hand forward. "its Priya, nice to meet you jai." I smiled at him. "that's really great. Even I am from the fourth year."

"ohh..!!" I followed my path. "so can I accompany you?" he asked while gesturing to the path. "oh sure."

"so, Priya. From where have you been transferred? And why here?" he asked me staring at my face. I was becoming inconvenient with his act. "from Vijayawada. Nearer to my house." I said and started to walk fast so as to escape from him.

"Whoa! Slow down. Bathroom?" he asked in a sarcastic tone. "huh?" I asked confused and stared blankly at him. " I was just kidding." He started to laugh loudly "your face." He pointed to my face and was laughing uncontrollably. I was taken aback by his kind of behavior.

"I am sorry I need to go." I was embarrassed by him and left him without even speaking a word. I didn't even turn back to check if he was following or not. Soon I was seated in my class and the time passed by so quickly. It was lunch already. I started moving towards the canteen when I felt someone following me. I quickly turned back to see who it was, jai. Energy got completely drained from my body watching him leaning onto a wall and his eyes boring holes into me.

I adjusted myself and left from there. I soon had my lunch and then had peaceful evening classes. It was six in the evening and I was patiently waiting for the bus when a car was approaching me.

"hey Priya, get in," Abhay said.

"huh? how did you, I mean your office is till eight rites?"

"get in, I will explain later."

I silently sat in the passenger seat when the car roared off. I stared at him for an answer to my previous question. He cleared his throat as if he was going to start a lecture.

"actually Priya." He started saying while stealing glances at my side. "my office timings are from ten in the morning to five in the evening."

"but -"I was cut off when he started to say. "yes, I used to pass my time in a mall or a friend's so that I can spend very little time at home." He said while avoiding eye contact.

I was very disappointed with his answer, I never meant him to pass his time out of the house. What have I done that he never came home early? I started to stare out of the window lost in my own world. Nowadays I don't even know why I started feeling so low, maybe hormonal imbalances might be the reason.

I was brought out of my island of thoughts when Abhay cleared his throat. "Actually Priya it has nothing to deal with you. I wanted to have some alone time so I spent it out. That's all; it's nothing to avoid you and all. I can understand what all thoughts are running in a small head of yours." I was bewildered listening to him.

I just want to clarify each and every doubt running like a little mouse in my mind. I was preparing myself for a way to get a clarification regarding everything in my mind. "Abhay?" I called him to have my attention. "yes, Priya?"
