My Teacher

Chapter 20

Silence consumed us as we sat in the car. I drove whilst Abhay stared out the window. After my kiss we shared an awkward silence however Raman decided to visit us and we decided our departure. After some bickering Abhay finally gave me permission to drive.

"Are you hungry?" He asked.

"A little." I answered.

"You wanna get McDonalds?"

"Yeah sure." I said and drove to our new destination.

We both got out of the car and walked towards the entrance. It wasn't very busy inside, just a few random teenagers munching on burgers and chips. I mentally laughed at how ridiculous he and I looked, dressed all formally at midnight. I walked towards the counter with Abhay and greeted the young teenager working there.

"Hello Miss, what can I do for you?" He asked and I placed my order then turned to Abhay. "What do you want to eat?" I asked and without looking at me he answered.

"I'm not hungry." He replied bluntly.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes." He hissed looking angry.

"Okay..." I turned back to the cashier and he placed my order.

"It'll take five minutes." He told me and gave me my change but it fell to the floor. I bent down to pick it up but was soon hauled up by Abhay as he grabbed me arm. He pushed me behind him and grabbed the cashier by his collar.

"Keep your eyes to your fucking self." He seethed and pushed him back. He grabbed my hand and dragged me back towards the car.

"What was that about?" I frowned.

"Nothing just get in the car. We're leaving." He demanded.

"I won't until you tell me what happened in there." I crossed my arms over my chest.

"Get in the fucking car!" He screamed and got into the drivers seat. He started buckling his seatbelt.

"You can't drive! You're intoxicated!" My eyes widened.

"I'm sober enough." He argued and drove out of the premises.

"You're mad." I huffed.

"Because of you." He huffed in return and held onto the steering wheel tighter.

After a few moments of silence I spoke again. "Are you going to tell me now?"

"God, why are you so annoying?"

"I should be asking you that." I stared out the window.

"Stop with the attitude." He growled.

"I'll stop mine when you stop yours." I fired back.

"Tina, I'm warning you." His voice lowered.

I huffed. "Why can't you just tell me why you acted like that? Huh? Do you know that cashier? Did he steal your change?" I asked, looking at him.

He laughed sarcastically and pulled uo into the driveway. "You're pathetic."

"You know what? I don't care anymore. Go to hell you ass!" I got out of the car and slammed the door as hard as I could.

I went to the front door and tried to open it but it was locked.

Damnit. I forgot my key inside.

I watched as Abhay got out of his car briskly and slammed the door just as hard as I did.

He opened the door and walked in immediately. I sighed and walked in behind him. As I walked past him towards my bedroom he grabbed my arm and turned me to face him.
