Too Good To Be True.

Chapter Eighteen.

*1 New Message* showed up on Sasha's phone just as she woke up.
It said, "Goodmorning :) " .
The smiley brought a smile on Sasha's face, just then her mother came in to see her smiling blankly to the phone.
"Ahem ahem."
"Goodmorning Ma"
"You seem to have a great morning darling, whats up?"
"Nothing Mom, what's for breakfast?" Said Sasha smiling trying to change the topic.
Mother squinted her eye, to give Sasha the 'oh-don't-try-and-change-the-topic' kinda look and said, "Okay, this is weird. Last night before diner you yourself asked me to just boil milk for you, and you would eat cornflakes. Right?"
"Ohh yeah yeah..Yeah right. I just forgot! Okay mom i will go get ready!"
More than her face, Sasha's mother could notice the happiness within her, and she smiled too.

'The poet wants us to know, that all of us are capable..'
"Of winning everything in this world!" Exclaimed Vivek as he interupted Sasha's lecture. And all the students started laughing.
Sasha- "Vivek Sir, Is there anything you want?"
Vivek- "Ma'am, I don't want a thing, I want someone."
Sasha got shocked, she thought he was about to ask her out.
Sasha-"w..what?! Who?"
Vivek smiled looking straight inti her eyes, took a paper from his pocket and looked into the paper and started reading out, "Jyotsna, Raj, Meher and Jamie, you all gave your names for the Maths Exhibition, so I would want to talk to all of you personally. So (he turned to Sasha) Ma'am, can I take them for a bit?"
Suddenly breaking her row of dreams she said "Yeah, yes okay".
He gave his charming smile and left.

Two lectures later, Sasha had a free lecture and thus she was doing her work in the Teacher's room, just as Vivek came in.
She noticed there was noone except them in the Teacher's Room and for the first time she did not feel awkward.
"Hey!" Said Sasha waving at him.
"Hello!" Said Vivek as he came and sat.
"So how was your day?" Asked Sasha.
"Well, it was boring till now, but maybe it will be fun from now..."
"Really? How?"
"Cause you will play with me" he said.
"Haha, yeah, but I don't have a ball."
"Well, we will not play catch catch, but Truth and Dare!" Said Vivek with full enthusiasm.
Sasha couldn't help but smile at his innocence.
"Okay" she said.
"Okay I will start!"
"Okay, I take truth."
 
     Truth or Dare, Love or Hate, what will they choose? What will life give them?
