The Not So Cliché Love story

Likes me Likes me not

Aarav's P.O.V.

I walk around thinking.

Vivaan calls me.

"Aarav, you get your ass here within an hour. "

"I am about to start!"

"I will believe it when I see it"

" You sound like my father"

"He is a clever man.
Listen, there is a party near your house within two days"

" And.."

"I have invites. Do you happen to fall in love and need an extra one?"

"Actually, I don't mind two extra ones".

"You are a big bad dog. Two girls at once!" his voice holds awe.

"Shut it or hitch hike your way here".

He just ends the call.

I see Avni in the living room watching some movie.

I think about Paari's words again.

"Does it mean she likes me?"

Avni answers for me.

"Of course not. She is love in with that guy. Look, she is running into his arms"

I look around alarmed. Nothing.

Then the TV screen.

People, I tell you are unbearable watching cheesy films.

Why the hell is that heroine running so slow in the cold with that dress?

I imagine I would be running like a sprinter in that dress, if not to run from the cold but atleast generate heat. No science in these movies.

I go out into the garden after messing with Avni for some time.

Dia likes me?

Maybe she does. She kind of looks funny at me sometimes.

Maybe not. She kind of looks funny at me other times.

See... I might as well hold a flower and pluck out petals one by one shouting

Likes me.

Likes me not.

I huff.

I am Aarav and Aarav does not have doubts about anything.

But Dia...

Stop it. I just need a way to make her spend more time with me.

That's it. I need a plan.
Oh God I have to pick Vivaan up.

Vivaan....hmmm..That might work.

I keep my hands in my pockets and start whistling.
