One Fated encounter ✓

Its a Mistake

Saki's POV:

"Am sorry...

I have gone little crazy....

It's a mistake...

Just forget it!"

I was preparing myself to hear these possible words from him anytime soon.

You are such a loser Saki, how can you lose your sense just like that, how...how can you kiss him???...that was my inner voice shouted at me.

So much happened in the last few minutes, I felt so embarrassed to even look at him. A horn from a car seeking way out as Arjun stopped his car in the middle of the road brought us back to the ground. We pulled back unable to look at each other and rushed to the car. He opened the door for me, I slouched on the seat and kept myself towards the side of the window and tried looking out to avoid his gaze...I felt that my face was getting hotter and hotter, and wondered if he would notice that. It's been more than 10 minutes and there was absolute silence in the car.

I was positive that he would anytime soon would behave like a jerk and hurt me even more. But, he didn't uttered a word.

We reached my place and he stopped the car at the street corner as it's a narrow street. My heartbeat had gone crazy and I was holding my breath, preparing myself to hear those possible words...

"Dry yourself first thing especially put a hair dryer. Don't catch cold", he said while I opened the car door to get down.

I was not sure how to react, and I just uttered "Hmm" and got down without giving a glance and literally ran to my home.

He waited till I reached home and I felt mortified to even look back.

Arun was on call with my Mom and she passed the phone over to me.

"Where is your lunch box?", My mom literally shouted when I was about to talk to him

"Oops! I left it in the taxi" I realized that I forgot to pick it.

"You and your stupidity", go and get change first she chided

"Where did you leave? In the taxi or with him?" Arun asked

"In taxi only Arun, I guess I can call the driver to return it"

"Text me his phone number, I will speak to him and get it. You don't need to talk to him", he said

"Hmmm, Arun you know...the taxi I traveled was broke down and I...met.. Arjun", I was not able to really put it out to him as Arun was already pissed at Arjun's behavior last time and he has all his rights to be like that.

"No need to explain Priya, I understand. Hope he has not hurt you this time. Now you go, fresh up and sleep. Will talk to you morning" he assured

I felt very ashamed to even talk to Arun, he was such a good friend and companion. He didn't like Arjun rather the way he treated us in the restaurant. How could I tell him that I fell for such an arrogant jerk who mistreated my friend, that too when all he told was there was nothing between us but I ended up kissing him. I felt like crawling into a hole and hide. Heaviness spread across my chest.

You are a selfish brat Saki, you are bothered only about yourself and your feeling. I was cursing me out loud and banged my head on the wall. Arun will understand Saki, after all he is your friend, as long as you are happy he should be fine, that was my inner voice trying to make sense with my mind voice.

It's 3am, not sure if I should called that as night or morning, I could not sleep at all, looked at my phone every other minute but no sign of him. How can he be quiet after all that happened today, especially after kissing...me, that too not just once.
